CITY HEADS REQUEST
ESQ MORE WORKERS
Need Extra Force to Grant Fire.
men and. Police Day OF
Each Week.
BIG SALARY ITEM IS ASKED
Commissioners Oyster and Bell Be-
fore House Committee.

Authority to appoint approximately
$50 more men to the police and fire
departments in order to give each
man one day off a week was request
ed of the House appropriations COM
mittee by the District Commission :
ers today.
The new salary bill recently en-
acted directs the city heads to give
the uniformed guardians Of life and
property one Gay off in seven, and it
is understood the Commissioners told
without additional men. To grant the
day off without a larger personnel
would mean reducing the strength of
each department by one-seventh.
The Commissioners also submitted
to the committee a supplemental esti-
cover the increased salaries granted
the policemen, fireman and school
teachers.
Another supplemental item submit
ted today was that of $4,000. addi-
tional for the proposed Janney School
project were opened at the District
building last week. it was found that
the lowest offer was that much in
excess of the $4,000 appropriation.
Garaell Hospital Needs Aid
Commissioner oyster also hoped to
call the committees attention to the
urgent need for $s,4oO for the remod-
cling of the contagious disease build
ing of Garfield Hospital. The hos
pital has notified the city heads that
it will not be able to renew the ex-
listing contract under which it ham
dies scarlet fever and whooping
cough cases for the health depart
ment because of inadequate facilities
and insuf1ciency of the usual appro-
priation.
The situation is regarded as serious
by the Commissioners, because there
is no other hospital equipped to ham
die the two contagious diseases men
toned. The city heads feel that il
they can get the additional sum ask
ed for to repair the structure Gar
field Hospital may renew the agree
ment. Those who testified before the
committee today were Commissions
oyster, Commissioner Bell and Au-
ditor Daniel J. Donovan.
