.Conroy, Murphy Foe,
Gets Choice Post in
Fire Officials Shift

A shift in assignments of five
top Fire Department officials went
into effect today and was de-
|scribed by Chief Joseph Mayhem
as strictly routine.
Chief Mathew said the follow
ing assignments in duty had been
made:
Capt. Joseph w. Conroy from
No. IL Engine Company to acting
chief of the 9Th Battalion. the
downtown post and a prize in the
Fire Department. He will retain
his rank of captain until a vacancy
in the ranks of battalion chief
is created by the pending retire
ment of Chief G. A. Cole.
Battalion Chief Alfred Grun-
well, executive officer Of the de-
partment to command OF the
7th Battalions sss5s
Cole to Appear Before Board.
Battalion Chief Games w. Kay,
from the 9Th Battalion to execu-
tive officer of the department.
Battalion Chief A. c. Kefauver

pear before the police and fire
surgeons board on March 81 rela-
tive to retirement. He has been

that he had recommended Capt.
Conroy for promotion to battalion

partment, he would be recon-
mended for the first vacancy, how

Capt. Conroy several years ago

ent Murphy, of demoralizing the
department.. =
Chief Murphy was brought be-
fore a civilian trial board, charged
with the decentralization tactics.
He was acquitted and restored
to duty. Some Is months later he
was retired by the District Com

Walter p. Reuther, president of
the CIO United Automobile Work
ers, told the Senate Finance Com
mittee today that an elderly
couple needs at least STA a month
to maintain a bare standard of
living.
He offered the committee an
annual budget of 5000 for such
a couple,
The union leader submitted
detailed statement to the COM
mittee in connection with its con-
sideration of expansion in the
Federal social security system.
The broadened benefits have been
approved by the House. .
Mr.. Reuther's minimum"
budget, however, would require
more than double the amount an
aged couple would receive under
social security by terms of the
House bill.

And he told the committee the
couple would require more than
5000 a month to exist at "a truly
American standard of living"
His $2.089-a-year schedule would
provide for food, fuel, clothing
and other necessities. The break
down listed such items as an over
coat every eight years for the hus-
band and a house dress each year
for the wife.
Mr.. Reuther said organized
labor would like to see the Federal
Government provide an "ade-
quate" pension program and would
be willing to end its own pension
efforts if that were done.
But he warned: 49,,

and expand the private pension

lish, despite their inherent defects
and limitations.
