SUGGESTS ROUSK|E
 LOSE POLICE BADGE
Mayor Pa0neSSa Wants Board to Get Patrolman's Resignation
WOULD LIKE ACTION FRIDAY
Declares Penalty Imposed Last Week
 Was Not Sufficiently Severe in View
 of Reports Which Have Come To
 His Ears.

Mayor A. NJ. Paoncssa wants Patrol man Thomas J. Rouskie dropped from the police force and in a letter to members of the commission he re- quests that action be taken at a spe- cial meeting of the board Friday eve ming.
 Rouskic figured in a recent sensa- tional case and he was penalized by the loss of 10 days from his annual vacation period. The mayor feels the penalty was not sufficiently severe and has mailed the following letter to his commissioners
 Reports that have come 10 my at tCntion since the meeting of the board of police commissioners last week, at which action was taken in the case Of Policeman Rouskie, cause me to believe that the penalty imposed was not severe enough
 If there is truth to these reports, the policeman should be dismissed from the department, and 1t appears that there must be some truth to them, otherwise your board would not have imposed q fine.
 The police department must be kept clear of damaging actions on the part of officers and men, and the Rouskie case has certainly caused harmful reports to spread.
 Tt is my wish that your board re- quest the resignation of Policeman Rouskie, and if if is not forthcoming charges of conduct unbecoming an or ncer should be preferred and the procedure as outlined in the charter followed
 "I am this day writing 10 the other members Of the board of police com missioners, and desire that the RouslSie case be considered at the spe- cial meeting understand you will hold Friday evening, May 23.
