GUN PERMITS ISSUED
BY MAYOR VOlDED
AT HIS OWN REQUEST
Wright Says Executive Has
No Authority to Grant
Such Permits.

That Mayor Black has issued special
commissions to a number of men who
could not be strictly classed as peace Of
ficers, in the meaning of the law, was
disclosed Friday when the mayor sub
mitted to Commissioner Phil Wright a
list of commissions he had issued, with
the request that they be taken up. The
mayors action is believed to have been
caused by the tense feeling existing be-
tween. partisans of City Engineer Har-
rigan and Street Commissioner Rieden.
Reports have been in circulation at the
city hall for several days that a num-
Der of men were armed that that trouble
might occur at any moment,
According to Commissioner Wright
the mayor gave him a list of names of
men to whom he had issued commissions
and requested that they be taken up.
Among them was one issued to the city
engineer. When Commissioner Wright
approached the city engineer on the
subject, he was given a list of names
to whom, the city engineer informed
him, the mayor also had issued commits
sions. These men, the police commits
sioner was informed, were Rieden parti-
sans.
Upon Investigation Chief Of Police
Van Ripper found that some of the men
named in the list were not carrying
commissions, nor were they armed.
From others special commissions were
taken.

Wright said Saturday, "the mayor has
absolutely no right to issue special COM
missions to any man who is not a peace
officer. We could prosecute every man
who carried a gun under such a COM
mission as it is illegal"
