PENSIONS FOR THE FIREMEN
Amcaduavnta to lb Charier Fall to
Make the Matter Clear
Enough.
Membara of tha Omaha police department
are aomewhat worried over the phrnae
olocy of the at-ction In the new charter
bill that (lvea the fire and police board
authority to arrange for penitlunii for mon
on the flie and police fonea who have
aerved fifteen year a and are over ao yeara
of asa. Jn 1W tills iiioH)ltiun was tx
tended to .the police dt'iertment by the
charter eoo(aj(l at that time, which pro
vidv) thai a vollcvuiaa must acrve Qftccn
conaecutlve yeara after the passage of the
act. It la now proposal to give the same
privilege to the firemen, and the charter
was ao amended, but the exact language
of the 1W7 charter waa copied after adding;
the lire department. It waa discovered by
member of the force that If the section
went through as drawn It would cut off
eight years on the time of policemen and
they would have to ft art ng.il a for a fifteen-year
atretch the same as tho fire
men. As a result an amendment providing
simply for fifteen years' service, saying
nothing about the tim It was to begin,
was drawn and sent to Lincoln. But this
overreached Itself, and as It waa obviously
granting too much, was discarded. On the
other hand. If provleloa. waa nutde for le
giiuiins the length of scrvlco lit 1M7 tha
firemen would be donated eight yeara'
time, which waa not Intended. The matter
dragged until the Douglaa county delega
tion signed an agreement not to permit
any more amendments and the pension sec
tion went unamended. The only palliative
held out to the policemen is that the pen
sion law will be effective for them until
seven yeara more anyhow and that In the
meantime they ran get the matter straight
ened out at an Intervening legislative sea-slon.

CONTROL! OF AUTOMOBILES
Jodie Berk Proposes to Make
Drivers special I'ollee to
Caleb , scorchers.
Police Judge lierka la n favor of the
appointment of owners of automobiles as
special police to see that tho fast driving
of machines on the streets, of Omaha Is
reduced to the leant possible frequency of
occurrence.
"The regular ipllecmen catch V good
many of the offenders, tut there are many
cas3s of scorching which they do not see,"
said Judge Berka. "If automobile owners
are chosen as special police who are
known' respecters of the automobile ordi
nance, a great influence would be ex
erted over those who ore Inclined to drlv
fast. The proper' method would be to first
warn the driver found breaking the speed
limit end then watch him for a repetition
of the offense. If It happens the second
time, arrest him. The plan would greatly
reduce the number of accidents."
Judge Berka's plan It already In use In
Rt. I'aul. where a part of the membership
of the Automobile club have leen ap
pointed special oirlcer. , .They have Just
been sworn In, un.I with the' assistance of
other members of the club, they expect
J
to reduce fast driving to the ' minimum
tills season. Fast driving machines with
out numbers, machines without a light
at night, all will be repi rted to the spe
cial police by whatever member of the
club who notes the Irregularity.
"We ought to have, aomethlng like the
St. Paul system In Omaha," aald an auto
mfbile owner, "and If we had a club It
would be easy. At present the lack of
organization would make It hard for us to
get to work together."
