SCHAFFER TO BACK
/ POLICE PAY BOOST
Wisconsin Delegate Tells
e
Force Greater Compensation
Should Be Given.

Declaring that in his Judgment the
present salaries in the Washington
Police Department are inadequate,
and pledging his support and his vote
for legislation to grant an increase of
no. less than $400 per annum to every
member of the Police Department.
"fiom the newest recruit to the chief" F."
Representative Schaffer of Wisconsin,
in an address last night before the
policemens Association at Pythian
Hall, discussed at length the needs
and the rights of the Police Depart.
ment of the District of Columbia and
commended the members on the high
morale and efficiency of the force.
,-.'The character of the work of the
members of the Police Department is
trying and hazardous and adequate
conversation should be provided. We
know that the cost of living in Wash
ington is considerably higher than in
other cities. This fact was clearly
brought out not long ago, when the
members of Congress voted an in
crease in their own salaries.
sThe present retirement act should
be liberalized. The present maximum
so per cent per year Of salary re-
C0dNtQ uN HAc
on account of permanent disability
through injury received or disease con-
tracted in line of duty should be
raised.
More liberal provision should be
made for the care of widows and
orphaned minor children of members
who die of injuries received in actual
discharge of duty. Members of the
force should be permitted to retire on
their own volition after 25 years OF
service, without any limitation as to
age.
The retirement act should be
amended to provide for medical,
surgical and hospital treatment, when
necessary. for injury incurred or dis
ability contracted in line of duty in
stead of actual discharge of duty, as
isi now in effect.
ts'Your organization should not hesi-
tate to ask Congress for amendatory
legislation such as I have outlined,
and any other legislation which you
believe to be fair and just. One of the
fundamental rights of our Government
Is the right of citizens to petition his
Government. 1t makes no difference
Whether this right is exercised indi-
tidually or by an organization such as
yours. I feel that the citizens and
business men of the District will
support your endeavors to obtain
proper recognition from Congress"

Driving on Bad Roads

Whether in winter or summer, the
safest rule for turning on any narrow
road or street where the shoulders or
cutters are likely to be filled with
snow or mud is to keep the rear
wheels in the center of the thorough
fare, steering the front wheels off the
road where necessary. Any observing
motorist has noticed that stranded
cars invariably are found with the
rear wheels, or one Of them, off the
road. It also is a good plan to keep
the lights on at night

Lime Mortar Stands
Test After Years

Cement was not used in this coun-
try In the earliest work as it had not
been at that time rediscovered but the
lime mortar used in buildings that
stand today was of wonderful paul
ity. Great care was used In procuring
proper sand and the lime was slaked
and allowed to cure in pits for months
or even year before 1t was to be
used. Evidently, too, the relative pro
portion of lime to sand was exactly
right and the result was that the walls
were more waterproof at the joints
than are those of today and the NOR
tar still retains Its tenacity.

man. who issued the call for the

utter futility of the democratic
party permitting itself to become di-
vided over controversies that have no
place in a political convention, and
which cannot be settled by political
action.
"The real issue before the people
is the record of the Harding Coolidge
administration. Upon that issue the
democratic party can sweep the
country in 1928"
Durbin attacked the claims Of the
republican administration that the
nation is prosperous, declaring there
were more bank and business failures
than ever before in history, and point

Lamont's Talk Betrays
Morrow's Mexican Role
Continued from Page II

Mexican state to fulfill it's obligation
to its foreign creditors, the land and
oil question has, however, had the
effect Of discouraging most of the
British and American oil companies
operating in Mexico, and their oil pro-
duction has fallen off heavily. For
instance, the production of oil, which
in 1922 amounted to 100000 bar
rals, fell in 1925 to 115,500,00O bar
rels, and in 1926 to 90,500,000 barrels.
The production in 1927 is hard to es-
innate, but if continued at only the
present rate will be materially below
that of 1926.
1.-THE taxes levied by the govern
ment upon the production and export
Of oil form its greatest single source
of revenue, and this diminished pro-
duction of oil has cost the govern
ment heavily; for the taxes, which in
1922 amounted to almost S5,000000
pesos. produced in 1926 only 7,235,000
persos, and will in 1927 produce even
less than the latter amount.
''Mr. Morrow Speaking
Until these perplexing questions
now at issue approximate settlement,
1T is not probable that Mexico will
invite foreign capital to seek outlet
there on any large scale. I believe
that the United States has the great
est possible frienliness for our near
est neighbors on the south and de-
sircs for them nothing but peace and
prosperity"
It is not hard to imagine that these
words expressed rather exactly the
sentiments of Mr.. Morrow, and that
Mr.. Morrow's legal and financial and
diplomatic talents will be devoted to
the "bettering of Mexican-American
relations" along these lines.

Magistrate Defends IL.
Railroad Conductor for
Pushing Girl Off Train

Magistrate Peter NJ. Daily in ia
maica, Queens, yesterday denied the
application made by counsel for Miss
Edna Newberg, 10, Of Lynbrook, for
warrants for the arrest of Conductor
Robert Cannon of the Long Island
Railroad on charges Of disorderly
conduct and assault in the third de-
gree. Edward E. Edstrom of Valley
Stream, represented Miss Newberg.
Miss Newberg was put off Long
Island train at Jamaica last Friday
morning because she had no ticket
and no money with which to pay her
fare from Lynbrook to New York.
Miss Newberg contended that Cannon
handled her roughly in putting her
off the train and as result she re-
quired medical attention. Miss New
berg had committed regularly on the
L. |. R. r. for year.
Edstrom today first applied for
warrant for Cannon's arrest on a
charge of third degree assault but
Magistrate DAILY refused the warrant
on the grounds that there was no evil
dence of assault, and when Edstrom
sought warrant on a charge of dis
orderly conduct the magistrate stated
that there was no grounds for that
charge.
Magistrate said in his opinion
conductor had the right to use "any
reasonable means" in removing al
passenger from a train for not pay
ing the fare.
