30 POLICEMEN
ASKPENS|ON
INCREASE
Additional Amount Provided
by Congress Not Paid.
Seek Mandamus

Claiming an increase In their PEN
sions, thirty policemen who have
been in actual service more than
twenty-five years and are now on
the pension rolls at $69.16 PER
month, today asked the District STU
creme Court to compel by man.
damus the District Commissioners
to approve an increase of their
pension to $3.50 per month.
The petitioners, represented by At
torney Hosea B. Moulton, says that
Congress provided last June for the
increased pension and that the Com.
missioners conceded the right TO
the advance and expressed a will
ihgness that it be paid. The Ie-
months for the increase, but have
not received 1t SO far.
Counsel for the policemen informs
the court that he has computed the
amount of the fund available for
the payment of police pensions and
finds that it will amount this year
to 100000. If all the increases
provided by the act are allowed, it
will not take more than $466,251,
according to counsel, leaving a sur
plus of $33,749. Since the officials
admit that the increases should be
paid and there are funds available
for such increases the court is asked
to compel the Commissioners to
order the payment of the amounts.
The plaintiffs in the case are:
David e. Langley, George Shannon,
James Law, c. e. Garvey, David

FLORIDA CUBAN
AIR. SERVICE
PLANNED
Luxurious Planes to Garry 80
to SO Persons Each to
Make Regular Trips
By EARL ADAMS.
International News Service.

KEY WEST. Fla, Nov. 25.-
Regular passenger and freight trsf-
fic between South Florida cities
and Cuba in seaplanes, rhe equal
in luxury and capacity of any now
plying on European routes, win be
reality In a comparatively short
time, possibly next winter, Charles
+. Rodden, president Of the Aero
marine Anyways Corporation, CT
New York, told international News
Service.
Barron G. Collier, of New York,
millionaire developer of Collier
county, Florida, and Police Commits
sioner Enright, Of New York, are
said to be interested.
This corporation began operation
OF passenger service between Key.
West and Havana in 1920, and dur.
ing the tourist season the planes
OF this company were in great de-
mand.
The fatal accident which befelI
the seaplane Columbus, which sank
in the ocean during the winter of
1923 and in which disaster Robert
Atkins, sugar king Of Boston, his
two sons and maid lost their lives,
offset the patronage the planes
We're then enjoying.
Travel was resumed, however, in
1924, and Mr.. Redeem is authority
for the statement that his company
would have made 100000 last win
ter had they been equipped with
sufficient planes.
II am convinced by my survey"
Mr.. Redden said, that there is
great need for seaplane service
from Florida cities to Havana, and
I believe my company will operate
three available planes this winter,
so as not to let the service die
OUT and by the following season
our fleet of new planes will be
available"
Mr.. Redden explained that the
new planes were of the type adopt
ed by the great commercial lines
Of Europe, carrying thirty TO fifty
passengers, and capable Of making
the trip from Key West to Havana,
a distance Of ninety miles, in fifty
minutes, and from Miami to 1la-
vana in two hours
