the animal was general pet with
the children of the neighborhood.
One of Laddie Boys unusual
traits was his fondness for coffee
with sugar and cream. taste ac-

POLICEMEN favor
Retirement At @
Older Members Object to Project
Which Is Carried, IS to IL

BY vote of 43 to II, members
of the police department yesterday
afternoon approved the recommend
alton of the police pension board for
a compulsory retirement arrange
ment at the age of 65 years, after an
attempt to set the age at 20 years
and another move to make no
change in the existing system had
failed. Three of those in attendance
at the meeting voted in favor of an
age limit of 70 years, and nine fav-
ored leaving the retirement regula-
tons as they are.
lrhe pension situation was gone in
u from all angles. Lieutenant Sam
years of age, spoke against compul-
sorry retirement, his contention being
that physical or mental inability
should be the basis on which to regu-
late retirement. Others brought out
the point that men at IS years of
age might be competent to perform
their duties and also be in circum-
stances that would not permit of re-
tirement on half pay without serious
embarrassment from the standpoint
of livelihood. The argument was also
made that to retire number of
men at G5 years would cause a Sc
we're drain on the pension fund,
which is in need of bolstering. The
o,f,,, 4
who will be affected by the pro-
posed regulation voted against it.
Chief w. C. Hart voted in favor OF
a retirement age of 20 years and
when it was defeated he voted for
the 65 year arrangement.
There was a discussion of the pro-
posed widows pension but no ac-
ton was taken because the pension
board has not gone into 1T as thor
oughly as the members wish to, and
more Information than is at hand at
present will be obtained before an
attempt is made to include it in the
regulations. One policeman suggested
that If the widows are to be pro-
vided for. the assessment against the
members of the department be in
creased. but the suggestion did not
meet with favor.
The action of two members of the
department on the compulsory retire.
ment age regulation will be reported
to the board of police commissioners
at the next meeting and it is prob
able that the necessary steps to in
clude it in the charter of ordinances
will be taken. 1t is proposed to have
it effective April 1, 1880.

CRUISER BILL STILL
AWAITING some ACTION
Friends Of Measure WIN Swing Into
Saddle When Appropriations
BIN Is Finished.

Washington, Jan. % N-Friends
of the cruiser bill are expecting 1t to
make a quick run toward final
vote. once the deficiency appropria-
don bill is out of the way.
The deficiency bill, with an an
Choir that has held it fast. the pro-
posed increase in prohibition en-
forcement funds. raised. shows signs
of casting loose from its moorings
after the settlement of the contro-
versy over tax refunds. Senate lead
ers plan then to keep up the pro-
posed measuye, which would call
for the construction of Is cruisers
and one aircraft carrier. until dis
position is made of it.
Chairman Hale Of the senate ma
val committee, one of the sponsors
of the cruiser bill. believes that 1t
will be passed handily when the final
votes comes. The opposition is ex-
pected to attempt to obtain some
modification Of its provisions. They
want the authorization for Is crui-
sers reduced to 10 or ships. and
they also favor President Coolidge's
proposal that the time limit requir-
ing the construction Of the cruisers
within three years be removed.
President Coolidge has let 1t be
known that he wants the bill pass
ed. but its chief proponents are OPP
posed to the suggestion that the
time limit be removed. arguing that
this might result in extended de-
lays in building the Ships and would
take away the effectiveness Of the
program.
In speeches made thus far. the
opposition to the cruiser bill has not
been heard. and the proposer mea-
sure comes up, the proponents
plan to remain silent for the most
part in order to facilitate consider
alton. Chairman Hale has asked that
the senate meet earlier in the day to
give more time to consideration Of
the proposed measure and he and
others supporting 1t are prepared to
call for night sessions II necessary.
