SPOT FOR HANGING
 PUZZLES OFFICERS
County Jail Refuses to Permit
 Federal Execution

Miami, Fla, Aug. P}-Denied use of either the roof of Broward county jail or the court yard. fed er2l authorities today were without a place to erect scaffold and gal lows for the hanging of Horace Alderman, convicted slayer of three government officials in a sea fight off the Florida coast in 1927.
 Under an order of Federal Judge H. l.. Ritter, Alderman must hang August 11 on the roof of the county jail. County official, however, haze demurred on the grounds that he roof of the jail is bonded by a roofing company and that use of it in this manner would cause the bond to be Noided.
 The government, as second c'b ce, asked if a scaffold and gallows could be erected in the courthouse yard and this request was turned down. Meanwhile two county con- missioners have interposed objac- tions to the hanging on county property when two government reservations. one the coast guar l base and another an Indian reserva- tion, are nearby.

 "The board has made diligent in quiry into all the details of the oper- ly in view of the fact that some criti- cism of our department had existed and probably always will.
 However, until the past three or four months building ordinances had not been properly enforced.
 "The building commission respect fully recommended that the position of temporary deputy building inspec- tor be continued and the office be made permanent commencing May 1, 1880.
 "The building commission further recommended that steps be taken to adopt the same system as the city of Hartford in the conduct of the building department, and wish to go on record as favoring a charter amendment to effect this method.
 Respectfully submitted,
 Building Commission" The board went over the work done by the department and studied each phase of it thoroughly. An ef- fort was made to determine whether or not the office of deputy inspector was necessary and after taking all the facts into consideration the af f1rmative conclusion was reached. The only other question raised at the meeting was with regard to keeping records for an indefinite period as is the present custom. It was suggested that they be kept for one or two years but after some dis cusion it was voted to continue the present policy.
