Edward Ryan Announces Petition to Place Issue
 Before Electors

Edward M. Ryan, who campaign ed during the recent session of the legislature for more liberal legisla- tion for the local members of the Police and Fire Departments as well as other city employees. today stated that he has had over scores of peti- tions printed which call for the City Employees pension plan to be sub- mitted to a popular vote of the voters of the city in the coming elections.
 "It is highly important that all of our people be given the right, under our American form of government to decide for themselves if they do or do not want to accept the pres ent pension plan. It will be all of our people who will be Vitally ef- fected by the passage of such legis- lation and they should have some- thing to say about the entire mat ter"
 Under the act which is now awaiting the Governors signature, every employe of the city will be dis criminated aganist. Under that act the members of our Police and Fire Departments will be robbed of cer- tain rights and privileges which were guaranteed them when they joined the departments.
 '"The plan to place this measure on the voting machines will give every last citizen better opport- tunity to completely understand the Pension Bill and its provisions. At the present moment there are not a dozen people in this city who under stand the bill in its entiretly.
