TWO POLICEMEN DROPPED
ON CHARGES OF COWARDICE
Probationary Men Accused of Running Away When
Called to Help Other Officers in Trouble-Brook-
lyn Killing Involved in One Case

Two probationary policemen have
been dismissed from the Police De-
partment by Commissioner Richard E.
Enright on accusations of cowardice.
They were Valentine J. Schick of
Headquarters Division Training School
and Christopher Lowe of the same
command. The order became effective
Friday at noon.
In the police orders announcing the
dismissals it was stated that on May
last Schick heard signal given by
another policeman, who was having a
struggle to subdue prisoner, and fed
from the scene.
Lowe ran away, according to the
charges. after being informed that a
patrolman had shot a man he was
trying to arrest and wanted help. This
also was on May s. The formal
charges against both men were neg

Lloyd George Rebuked as
Grovelling to Assassins
IL n. Associated Pres.

RELFAST, Aug. 27.-The Royal
Black Institution, branch Of
the Orange order, held a dem
onstration to-day throughout
Ulster, at which vigorous resolu-
tions were passed concerning the
present Irish negotiations. That
adopted at Baliymena, County
Antrim, is a fair sample. 1t
said:
"We look with shame upon
the humiliating sight of the Brit
ish Prime Minister grovelling in
the dust to rebels and assassins.
We congratulate Sir James Craig
(the Ulster Premier) for having
refused to confer with a man
calling himself the President of
the Irish Republic. We tell him
that on these lines he has loyal
Ulster at his back, and that the
day he deviates from this he has
ceased to represent the voice Of
Ulster"

lect of duty and cowardice."
The charges were said to have grown
out of the killing of Charles Hanson. a
bartender employed by Joseph Zengeli
Of 362 Sumner avenue. Brooklyn, when
he refused to serve liquor to group
of men. Schick was said to have been
member of the party. Lowe was on
duty nearby.
In Police Department history. so far
as could be ascertained, only two for
mer dismissals have been made on
charges of cowardice. Commissioner
Arthur Woods in 1916 dismissed a pa
trolman who had failed to go to the
aid of Patrolman Henry II. Schwartz,
who was killed in a cellar at 1876 First
avenue during fight. In Commits
sioner's Binghams regime a patrol
man hid in a store instead of pursuing
a murderer upstairs in a building in
