SER V|CES
NEEDING
MEN
Ranks of Departments Must
Be Filled Before Day Of
Rest Is Given

The day off that it was hoped
could be given members Of the
police and fire department each
week, starting with the first of
the year, will await the filling of
the quotas of the two services.
That the weekly day off will be
held up at least a month was the
indication today, because of the
difficulty for both the police and
fire departments to obtain men
who are fitted for the work.
Applications Slow.
The Civil Service Commission,
which is charged with conducting
examinations for the two services,
Is holding examinations as fast as
they receive applications, but the
applications from the desirable type
Of man are being received slowly,
it was declared by the heads of
both departments today.
Fire Chief George s. Watson
stated that the fire department is
in need of forty more men to bring
the department to its full quota as
permitted under the appropriation
law. He said it Is hardly possible
to institute the weekly day off
until the quota is filled. and de-
clared 1t was a keen disappointment
to him not to be able to order
the plan into effect at the start
Of the new year.
Compete With High Wages.
The Fire Department finds it's
greatest difficulty in having to COM
pete with the high wages now paid
trained mechanics. Chief Watson
pointed out. The department used
to obtain its enlisted strength from
the ranks of mechanics to a great
extent.
Major Daniel Sullivan, superin-
tendent of police, announced that
the Police Department is still in need
of ninety men to bring the police
force to its full strength. There are
now 965 privates on the force. He
was optimistic concer ming the pos.
sibility of obtaining this number
soon, despite the fact that not more
than one-third of the applicants
qualify in the mental or physical
examinations for police appoint
ments. There are some who qualify
who do not report for duty.

Weather Bureau forecast shows,

expected to rise above the freezing

be overcast and snow is expected
in the mountains to the west Of

To Freeze Again.
The cold wave expected Sunday

mercury down below the freezing
mark.
Weather conditions throughout
the country, following the repeated
cold waves which have swept from
coast to coast, are today subject
to rapid change, the Weather
telegraph lines are broken by the
heavy SHOWS and storms in the
west, making the weather returns
slow and incomplete.
The cold wave which struck
Washington on Christmas eve, on
the heels Of a long cold rain.

to IA degrees at 1870 a. m. TODAY,
since which time it has been rising
steadily.

HOLIDAY LIQUOR
FOUND HERE, SAY POLICE

Pre'Christmas rumors that Wash
ington was to be flooded with the
bootlegger's products were not
borne out in reports received to-
day on the activities Of the police
over the holiday, Major Daniel
Sullivan, superintendent Of police,
declared today.
The report on liquor raids which
was submitted to Major Sullivan to.
day showed that seventy.four gal.

was to be brought in and illicitly
peddled should. If they claim to be
law'abiding citizens, give their in.
formation to the police.
