A special meeting of the city coun-
cil has been called for this evening
by Mayor Francis 1. “nine“. The mat-
ter' to be considered tonight is the
advisability of establishing a pension
fundIfor' the Norwalk police.

This matter came up once before,
some years ago. At that time every
member of the council voted in favor
of the scheme with the exception of
one. person. Pressure, It is said, was
brought to bear. and the resolution
callrng for the establishment of the
pension fuml was vetoed by the mayor
