Mayor John s. Monagan and Chief Thomas F. Cavanaugh were the main speakers at a special meeting at city hall attended last night by seventy auxiliary firemen The purpose of this meeting was to answer the many perplexing ques- tions asked of fire officials lately by the auxiliary force.
 The answer to the most important question was made by the mayor who said that the auxiliary force was increased to provide sufficient assistance for the regular fire de- partment in case of great fires re- sulting from enemy bombardment,
 However, the auxiliary forces will not be sumomned to fight fires re- sulting from peacetime occurrences, he added, unless the fire is so great that it necessitates more fighters to bring it under control.
 All the necessary paraphernalia has been provided for the auxiliaries for fire-fighting, said Chief Thomas F. Cavanaugh. Also that 180 active auxiliary firemen will be responsible for 15 trailer pumps and with the

Under a series of bills recently enacted into law by Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, deserving youths between l6 and 19 may escape criminal charges and conviction-after in dictment-if the courts so deter mine.
 The bills were drafted after a study by a joint legislative com mittee with the cooperation of the Governors counsel and officials as- sociated with juvenile delinquency.
 Said Senator Fred Young, spon- sor of the measures:
 Careful Experiment
 'The bills are intended only to be a slow and careful experiment Everyone is keeping an open mind on the subject. We intend to change them next year if necessary and will work on this matter during the summer in order to arrive at def mite and workable procedure throughout the state.
 No other states have similar provisions, to my knowledge. Many states are working in this direction but have not attained the goal as yet. California seems to be out in front along with New York, New Jersey and Illinois in this matter.
 "The theory is agreed upon by most people. The procedure is still to be worked out"
 In approving the bills, Dewey said they represent a compromise and an experiment. between the ideas of those who would retain the present system and those who would make so radical change as might hazard the security of a community and jeopardize, by failure, further advances in the treatment of the youthful offender.

 SUB ROSA DATES
BY ANN RYAN


 Cleveland, May 13, UP)-AllS s fair in love does not apply in war-or at least in Clevelands war indus tries.
 This city'S war plants have. served notice that sub rosa romances, in volving single girls and married men working together, will not be tolerated. War plant personnel managers, faced with the delicate problem of legislating in domestic situations. have learned to deal kindly but firmly with the problem Incorrigibles and second offend CTS are fired posthaste, however, the personnel men say.
 William s. Jack, paternal presi- dent of the Jack and Heintz Co.,, is pioneer in Cleveland's anti-flirt- -war-plant campaign. Over the company's public address system, he recently shouted: No married man can work in this plant and go out with girls
 Disrupt the Morale
 It isn't, Jack asserts, that he wants to tell employees what they may or may not do, but war plant flirtationS disupt the morale and we won't stand for it"
 Jack calls in the offenders and tells them to take their wives out for dinner and to the movies. After all," he says. "the people here are just hardworking American citizens and human nature is the same everywhere"
 If the appeal to the miscreant's better nature isn't effective, "out he goes" Jack adds that his "asso- ciateS' are very cooperative.
 The Addressograph Multigraph Go. also recognizes the extra mari tai recreation" problem, but uses different tactics to overcome it.
 Athletics in Spare Time
 Frank Willis, personnel director points to the athletic program Ad- dressograph has set up to occupy the spare time of its employees. Both men and women workers are free to use the company's own tennis courts and baseball diamond.
 'It'S a lot better than having them run off to night clubs" Will lis said.
 But even these diversions some times pail and, as arbiter of domes- tic troubles Willis has frequently been called upon to patch up quar- rels between husband and wife
 Another Cleveland plant reports that three assembly line romances have occurred out of total of 450 women employees. AS in all the other local industries, when the offenders did not reform-out they went.
