At next Tuesday evening's meeting of the common council. tho matter of the appointment of a patrolman to the office of sergeant: the appoint- ment of a supernumerary patrolman to the regular force and the appoint- ment of eight supernumerary patrol- men. will be one of the items of bust- ness that will attract considerable at- tention. Incidentally there may be a somewhat warm session as a commit~ tee from Frank C. Godfrey Post. No. 12. American Legion. headed by Com- mander LeRoy 1). Downs. will appear before the council to demand that ex- servicc men of the city. rtcotve no cognution in the supernumerary ap- pointments. _ Patrolman Frank V. Raymond, who wears shield X0. 1, and who has been connected with the local police force for a. number of years. is slated for the sergeants position. to fill the va- cancy caused by the dismissal from the force. nearly a year ago. of J. Harry Gibson. Jules Boenish. one of the super- numerary force of patrolman. is slated for the regular force. Just who the supernuinuunes will be has not been given out as yet. either officially or unoffically. but it is understood that many of them are not cit-service men. and it is for this reason that the Legion committee is to appear. It is practically compulsory in the state to give appointment offices to the various state positions. or at least preference to appointive offices, to ex-serviee men. and the Legion com- mittee is to demand that such pro- cedure be followed hero. It was orily recently that the Le- gion protested to Superintendent Robert G. Hurley of the State Police department on the proposed appoint- ment of two state policemen from this city. who were not excservice men. claiming that accordance to the action of the Legislature several years ago. it was compulsory to give the. appoint- ments to cx-service men. The matter of these appointments has been held in nbeyance as a result. The outcome of this protest is being watched with considerable interest by other posts in the state.
