EXTRA PAY VOTED
LOCAL POLICEMEN
Compensation A S sured
For Special Duty, Pa
rades, Escorts

A long battle by members of the
police department for compensation
for time put on while working on
special, extra duty assignments was
won yesterday when the board or
police commissioners approved the
payment of the bluecoats at regular
hourly rates for such duty. The
boards vote followed investigation
and a subsequent recommendation
by a special committee appointed
three weeks ago.
Members of the department filed
a formal protest with the board
some time ago, and at the last
meeting Chairman Harry Minor
named a committee to look into the
situation and return with recon-
rnendations. That the committee
would suggest pay for extra duty
done by policemen was predicted In
The Democrat two weeks ago.
Commissioner Ernest Anderson
yesterday suggested that the special
assignments now be rotated. 80 that
the extra work be divided evenly In
the future. 1t was also suggest
ed at the session that policemen
attend without pay the funerals OF
fellow members of the department.
The clamor for extra pay was
the result of O number OF special
assignments, such as parades, fun
erals and conventions. during, the
past year. Most of the extra work

The Strangest Journey Of Her Career

not doing any harm sitting here"
"I've already carried you 40
miles beyond your fare" he told
her. There's been room so far.
But look what's comingl can't let
you keep seat from a paying
passenger"
The bus was at a standstill be-
fore a town depot, and people
were getting on. Ruth said, "If
there's on seat left can I stay"
She was counting, prayerfully.
Five people getting on" she re-
ported in polite, pleading voice,
land five seats"
"AH right" He shrugged his
tired shoulders. But when one
more gets on. off you go!" The
car began to move.
Again Ruth relaxed. A storm
was coming up and the bus seemed
coy and secure as 1t passed
through the streets Of the self-cen-
tered little city. Out there people
were hurrying and scurrying before
the gusts Of wind and the sudden
flares of lightning. Within the bus
was security.
But on the towns edge the bus
halted. A man was standing, wait
ing to get on. The driver said to
Ruth Woodson. "Well, here we
are! Pull yourself together, kid,
and hop off," He seemed regret
full.
Ruth got off, and the passenger
got on. She held her head high as
the bus drove away. She even
raised her hand in jaunty salute to
the driver. But she was shivering.
1t was as II coy little house had
been lifted from over her head by
shelterless.
She looked around her. She was
in the suburbs of a strange, old
fashioned town, made more gloomy
by the breaking storm. A flash of
lightning rent the air with terrific
brightness. The crashing thunder
that followed seemed to open the
floodgates for the rain. 1t began
to pour in wind-driven sheets.
Just beyond an iron fence Ruth
saw a huge, tall old house of dingy
stone set in a tangled lawn. A
refuge. She opened a creaking
gate and ran UP the grass-grown
walk, head bowed against the rain.
She pounded upon the door with
her two small, frantic fists, her
body plastered there by the driv-
ing storm. Yet even in this ex-
tremity she noticed something
| strange. She noticed that the
great, carved door was cleanly
painted a brilliant blue.
It seemed to Ruth that the storm
must break and bruise her there
against the closed door of that
great, gaunt house. Her clothes
were drenched and limp. Her heart
was pounding strangely. Her head
felt light. The footsteps that she
heard beyond the door sounded hol-
low and unreal as they drew
nearer. -.
The door opened a crack and
thin old woman, with peering eyes
and bent back, stepped out. Before
a word had passed between them,
Ruth knew that she was going to
faint. AS she crumpled to the floor
she could hear the old woman rum
ming across the porch and calling
frantically. It sounded like "Mister
John! Mister joint"
When she opened her eyes she
was lying on a strange bed in
ming like top that is slowly rum
ming down. On one side of the
bed stood the bent old woman, like

of operators, perhaps at the next
session.
Local Failures
In regard to the heavy percent
age of local failures during the
first two days of inspection, Mr..
Cross said that this situation was
usual. He said that after the first
few days people usually begin to
have their cars checked at garages
before bringing them up for inspec-
ton.
He advised garage men to inform
their customers that q preliminary
check up would save the driver
both time and trouble.
In Waterbury, the speaker said,
the prevailing cause of failures has
been defective headlights, with
brakes coming next and front
wheel alignment third. The Connec-
ticut standard for lights, he said, Is
more lenient than that in many
other states.
Brake Testing
Criticism of the brake testing
machines because they oftentimes
do not check with those used in
garages is unfair, Mr.. Cross ex-
planned, In that many of the ma
hcines used in garages do not give
an accurate stimulation of road con-
ditions. The machines used by the
state have reproduced road condi-
tons as nearly alb possible, he de-
clared.
He added that the state was not
trying to drive garage owners out
of business" and advised his audi
ence to make an effort to meet the
standards of the compulsory inspec-
ton.

cussed the history of the state Au-
tomotive Trades association and the

Ruth's face colored. mo-" she

She did not know how far she
vas from Cleveland or what the
fare would be, but common sense
told her 1t would be more than she
had in her pocketbook. She'd been
4 fool to get into this plight, she
thought. She had twice let herself
be thrown off her course by that
good irresponsible nit-wit
of a Mrs. Cogly.
She figured ruefully, There's no
telling where this Girls Industrial
League is. 1t may be in Indian
apolis. 1t may be In st. Louis. 1t
sounds swell, but Mrs. Cogly's dizzy

The bus was coming. The old
man against the doorpost yanked
his suspender. There's yer char
lot" he said.
Ruth gathered up her bundles
and got on. 1t was local, small
and rather shabby. About half its
seats were filled. Ruth chose a
place directly behind the driver, as
this gave her an opportunity to
sneak into his ear without being
overheard.
"Please," she said to him in
muffled voice, I'D like to ride till
I've used up Sill" ..
MIAMI" replied the driver. He
was too surprised to put his car in
motion.
Ruth repeated her remark pa
81 -ntly and added, II want to
get as close to Cleveland as can"
The driver, big, red-faced fell
low, more on the side of Drawn
than brain, scratched his chin and
thought. He seemed to arrive at
ONE decision, for he put out his
hond and said, Gimme your dol
IL. Keep the II cents" He took
the change she handed him,
punched register and shifted gear.
They were off.
Ruth leaned back and relaxed.
She was learning to live minute by
minute, to hold fear at bay while
she savored the rich morsel of the
present. II believe you'd call this
the middle west" she thought,
looking out at the gorgeous au-
tumn landscape. Its grand. like
it. Imagine people in New York
thinking New York's everything!"
She pictured America like a huge
gay map unrolling before here, va
ried and wonderful.
All at once Ruth realized that
she was very hungry. She had
eaten no lunch. Her breakfast had
been a cup of coffee and a roll.
The day before, of course. she had

Mrs. Moody's victory had been
expected, but few hoped for the
drama and test of a Moody

virtually conceded triumph to
Frau Sporting before their semi
final match.
But Miss Jacobs put on a
slashing game and the former

in Denmark became discouraged
and let the match slip out of
her hands after a valiant first
set bid.

six-time Wimbledon titleholder
began to produce her old-time

She took the first three games,
keeping Mrs. Moody on the run
with strong forehand smash, but
the American again uncorked her
reserves.
Breaking through. service and
acing frequently, she smashed
through the next six games with.
out a slip. Here again, she played
the imperturbable, uncomfortable
game that made her great in her
pig-tail days.
Neither M rs. Moody nor Miss
Jacobs had anything to say about
their forthcoming battle, but it
was obvious both sensed the dra,
matte circumstances and realized
the eyes of the world will be upon
them. British experts lavished
praise upon Mrs. Moody for her
successful comeback thus far
