HylGys Starts Belated
Move TOWARD Economy
Backs Resolution to Retire
and Pension City Workers
Disabled by Reason of Age

DsSuOten by reason OF age
An eleventh hour effort at economy
on the part of the Hylan administra-
tion is expected to create lively dis
cussion by the Board of Estimate at
Its meeting to-day, when a resolution,
approved by the committee of the
whole OF the board, will be presented
for adoption. The resolution calls for
the retirement on pensions of all city
employees who, because of their age
or physical disability, are of little
value to the city departments in which
they are employed. ,,........
The resolution also directs the heads
of departm to comb their depart
ments for all such employees and re-
port to the Board Of Estimate. 1t Is
understood that the wedding out of
diately and that their positions will
not be refilled except in rare instances
Some mmbers of the Board of Estimate
are known to be strongly opposed to
the plan.
The Mayor has the support Of .A1der-
manic President La Guardia, and prob
ably will be able to swing a majority
In its favor. Major La Guardia is said
to have first suggested the resolution.
The plan conteInplates compulsory re-
tiremeht Of such employees and will
give them no say in the matter. The
Mayor already has taken steps to find
out to some extent how many incapaci-
tated employees there are in the vari-
Gus departments and how much Of a
saving their retirement would mean to
the city. He is said to be satisfied
that it would mean the saving of a
good many thousands of dollars Of the
taxpayers money.

Commissioners Leach was the hrst
witness called in the open session, and
after being swbrn he said he HAD
brought records dealing with all APP.
plicaticns for rehearings and rein
statements OF one-tiue filemhefs of the
Police Department. The records, which
were in huge portfolios, dated from
1915 to the present time the Dep
uty Commission said. He produced
also bound volumes of special and gen
cral orders issued by Police Commits
sioner Enright since 1918.
When the papers were produced Com
missioner Leaea denied the right Of the
committee TO take permanent possession
of them. Chief Counsel Brown quietly
informed him that they would Be i'm
pounded and at the same time he called
in the sergeant-at-arms to take them
into custody and to accord them any
protection that THE circumstances
might require.
At this point Corporation Counsel
0'Brien addressed the committee and
registered his official protest. 1t was
milton. Mr., O'Brien said that, while
the city did not object to the inspection
of the records, it felt that the whole
sale iinpounding of important docu-
n1eiits was unfair and illegal.
Mr.. Brown Informed the Corporation
Council that the inguisitorial body had
no intention of hampering the admin
istraEon and that any papers sub
pGnaed could be recovered by the city
Immediately If they were needed.
Similar papers dealing with applica-
tions by policemen for reinstatement
or rehearings were produced by Walter
B. Coghiin, Assistant Corporations oun-
sci, and John j. Glennon, chief clerk in
Mayor Hylan's Office. James McGin-
ley, an examiner In Commissioner Da-
vid Hirshfield's Office, also delivered
documents relating to police matters.

Charlie Sheridan, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Mark Sheridan Of Thetford, had
quite narrow escape from drowning
while bathing at what is known as the
Mole swimmin' hole" at the Neff farm.
Monday evening. The pond is not
large at this place but at one point
it is eight or ten feet deep, and being
fed by springs, is ALWAYS cool. 1t is
said the boy was seized with cramps
and went down for the second time.
At this juncture Floyd Collins went
to his assistance, and not being able
to handle him alone. Stanhope Huyck,
who was dressing, jumped into the
water without removing such clothes
as he had on, and assisted in getting
the boy to shore. The latter, not
having become unconscious, was
able to cough up the water he had
taken into his lungs and was soon
none the worse for his dangerous ex-
perience. The boys who did the
rescue act are certainly entitled to be
publicly complimented on their cour-
age and presence of mind.

ARBELA FARMER INJURED

VIM. Atkins, of Arbela, while cut
ing rye from his wheat field, about
three weeks ago, was struck in the
eye by one of the bearded rye heads.
At the time he did not consider it
very serious and continued with his
work. In a few days it became in
famed and a physician was called.
The doctor treated it for about one
week, and as he did not improve,
the doctor advised him to consult
an eye specialist. Mr.. Atkins was
then taken to Flint and the eye ex-
amiaed and was Immediately sent to
Hurley Hospital, Flint, for an opera
ton. He will lose the siPht, but the
doctor is in hopes he will not have to
remove the eye in order to save the
sight Of the other. His friends in
Clio, of which he has many, will re-
gret to hear of his sad affliction and
will extend to him their sincere SYM
pathy.

lQng been dispellcd BY the unquestion-
81 performance of the modern electric
plant. This has reached so high a
state of development that there are to-
day in operation many thousand farm
electric plants that have the gas en-
Gtne built right into the same unit with
