RULING ON PENSIONS
REVERSED BY COURT
Commissioners Enormously Inter
preted Provisions of Act, Justice
Robb's Opinion Contends.

Declaring that the District Commits
Sioners enormously interpreted pro-
visions of the act of February -, 1923,
passed to equalize the pensions OF re-
tired policemen and flremen, the Dis
trict Court of Appeals in an opinion by
Justice Charles H. Robb today held that
Spencer Roberts and Hugh McDermott,
retired policemen, are entitled to draw
full pensions of $3.50 per month.
The court said the Commissioners
were without legal justification in re-
fuSing to place their names on the PEN
sion rolls as full pensioners and affirmed
the action of the District Supreme
Court, which ordered a writ of manda-
mus to compel the placing of the mems
names on the pension rolls.
The men had been retired at $50 per
month before the passage of the act OF
1923 and were then advanced to $63.26
per month. They claimed that the
basic salary of the class to which they
had belonged had been increased to
$4,000 per annum and warranted an
increase to $3.50. The Commissioners
declined to accede to this request and
the petition for mandamuS was filed
After viewing the legislation for PEN
sionS at great length, Justice Robb
points out that there had been great
lack of uniformity in the amounts paid
pensioners in the same class, due to
difference in basic salary at the time of
retirement, and Congress intended by
this act of 1923 to correct this condi-
ton. In this act it provided that all
persons now or hereafter receiving re-
lief from the policemen and firemen's
fund also shall be entitled to all pen
sion benefits resulting from any increase
in pay that has or may hereafter be
granted by Congress.

TOY PISTOL NETS TWO.

Using a toy pistol which, he said,
Santa Claus brought to his brother,
Henry Tyler, colored, today told Judge
Gus A. Schuldt how he asked Isabelle
Balir, also colored, to change 81 bill
and then pulled the pistol on her.
The pistol, brought to court by
Policeman C. r. Bremmerman of the
second precinct, who Matte the arrest,
was one of the largest toy pistols ever
displayed in court, and led Judge Gus
A. Schuldt to remark that it certainly
would frighten anyone. Accordingly
he held Tyler and Edward Smith, also
colored, said to have been an accom-
plice, for the action of the grand jury
on charges of assault with intent to
rob. Their bond was set at $4,000 each.
