call. The alarm summons the
volunteers.
The alarm can be set off man
ually at the firehouse, but Mrs.
Rueger apparently did not know it.
Firemen said Mrs. Rueger then
drove to a nearby home and tele-
phoned for help. The alarm was
set off but f1remen said the two
story frame building was nearly
gone when they got there.
All that remained standing
when firemen had extinguished
the blaze were the exterior walls.
The Rueger house was situated on
Beulah road.
Firemen said Mrs. Rueger's hus-
band is in the Navy and is on sea
duty at present. The Ruegers lost

posal to reconstruct the frame
work OF the city government.
A three-man committee Is
drafting a basic reorganization

Meanwhile, the Board of Edit
cation yesterday favored retain
ing it's present controls and in
addition. taking over complete
fiscal control, the only area now
in the hands of the Commission
erS.
This was blow at Commits
sioner F. Joseph Donohue's an
Inounced intention to seek a
change in the method of appoint
ing the board. He has advocated
the Commissioners appoint the
board rather than the judges of
District Court.

Supt. Of Schools Hobart M.
Corning pointed out that the re-
organization plan would take from
the board certain responsibilities
in the field Of child labor. He
also said it calls for the Commits
sioners to handle the construction
of school buildings.
Board President c. Melvin
Sharpe declared, "the Commits
sioners want complete control Of
the design and construction of
schools"
"They might as we'll be the
School Board" Albert E. Steinem
said.
They are trying to superimpose
their control over schools" Adel-
bert w. Lee, vice president of the
board, said.
Battalion Chief Joseph w. Kay,
executive officer of the Fire De-
partment. commented on another
phase Of the detailed reorganiza-
ton plan submitted by Engineer
Commissioner Gen. Bernard L.
Robinson. These details have not
been ruled on by the city heads,
who by a majority vote have ap-
proved his suggested commission

Chief Kay expressed the view
that WED like to keep control of

would be a dual responsibility"

has in the past been customary in
some election districts supplies anv
justification for the action of the
election officers" said. the Court.
The crOwding of approximately
25O electors into the polling place
IN violation Of law, emphasizes the
original error. The desire to give
every citizen the opportunity to
vote is natural and understandable
Dut 1t may not be allowed to over
ride the law" the chief Justice
added.
Although several questions are
raised, the court said it need only
consider whether the Superior
Court, sitting as a board of can
vass, should take cognizance of a
charge that the election officers un-
lawfully held open the polls be-
yond the legal closing hour and
received and counted ballots dur
ing that period.
AS to the effect on the result of
the election, however, the court
said 1t would decide nothing. since
1t thinks the wrong is not one re-
mediable by a proceeding before
the board of canvass"
It denied the Republican conten-
ton that the language of the state
constitution transformed the board
OF canvass from a purely minister
1al body into judicial or at least
a quasi-judicial one, with power
to inquire into fraud or wrOng-dO-
ing in the conduct of the election
erecting the result, and correct the
certificates"
The opinion points out that a de-
feated candidate claiming, among
other things, malconduct of the
election officers or the reception of
illegal votes is entitled to bring
suit in Superior Court.
At the same time, the tribunal
declared that to permit the trial
before the board of canvass of such
a case would seriously interfere
with the orderly progress of the
canvass and unjustifiably delay the
count"
If petitions charging fraud or
in the election are to
be entertained, the court found, an
opportunity must be given to other
interested parties to deny the
charges and to be heard.
"The time-cOnsuming nature of |
such a proceeding is wholly for |
eign to the purpose and intent of
the Constitution" the court assert |
ed, pointing out that certificates of |
election must be speedily issued to
on the face of returns to
speedily enable them to assume
their official duties.
Also sitting with the Chief JUS
ice were Chancellor Collins J.
Seitz, and Presiding Judge Charles
5. Richards of the Superior Court.
They replaced Associate Justices
Daniel F. WOlcOtt and James NJ.
