Unfair Plays? Reader Answers "Fair
 Plays" Plea for Lit tie Charitable
 Spirit.
A reader. a gentleman reader ws

4 reader, . gentleman reader we presume with the spirit of the "Fightlng Marines" pens the Democrat an interesting letter, in- teresting for several reasons. It touches upon the transfer of ems ployes from the street department to the City Hall to complete man. dAtory task of compiling Q list of taxable eligibleS within the old age assistance act. The Water bury American In an effort to hand c few more artificial posies to the city controller printed the story as news" Q week after the men had started to work. The transfer of men saved the city from the necessity of adding to It's payroll.
 In Tuesday evenings Democrat c prominent citizen writing under the name of "Fair Play" criticized the American for Its uncharitable spirit and hinted of persecution of men who are honestly endeavor- ing to make an honest living.
 Another read, who prefers to TO. main hidden behind the pen name of "semper Fidelis" takes an- other view. It is, as previously claimed, an interesting slant on the situation. He takes a indifferent view than that of Fair Play" He writes as follows.
 Dear Editor:
 Reading your article concerning the shifting of street employees from one job to another on page two of Tuesday evenings Demo- crat, c newspaper I have been getting daily for years I felt en- titled to express my feelings Q bit concerning this person who signs himself or herself Fair Play.
 wonder if this party knows about some of the unfair plays, for instance the eight or ten sue pernumeraries who were doing regular duty from 2 to s years, who were laid of to make room for 12 new appointees some of whom had done very little police duty, if any. Not to say anything about one man in particular a personal friend of mine with four children, trying for 8 or 9 years to make the regulars from the lower abrigador whose people have always been faithful to the Demo- cratic party, and who lost a good job through political promises to be made a regular ofiicer. The city fathers didn't worry very much about whether this poor fel- low or any of the rest would ever find another job after they let them out did they, Fair Play?
 Respectfully,
 "SEMPER FIDELIS."
 P.S. And the reader with the marine spirit, the courage to write and express his feelings, very timidly intimated in a side note that for some reason, he doesn't expect to see his letter in print.
