THE OMAHA DAHjY BEE: "WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1902. toATCII PLAYING POLITICS Hjor Moores Expreree Opinion on Fire Department Fund Question. SaaMBSBIIBBB) SAYS DEPARTMENT MUST BE MAINTAINED ITU Honor Thlaks II Is Droalrh's Game to Discharge Half thr Flremea (e Make Places for HI Owi Mm. "It Is all a grest, big bluff." said Mayor fcfoores, speaking f the action of the Board of Firs and Pollre Commissioners looking toward th reduction of the Are department to keep within the fund for the present year. "That board," he continued, "Is making great fuse over the lack of funds and the necessity of cutting down the department la conform with the requirements of law; but" Mr. Broatch'a real purpose, If he could carry It out. is to discharge a lot of men at this time, and then when the new ap propriation becomes available after January tl to appoint bis own men to help him In ilst political aspirations next spring. ) "But the fire department must not be cut down, the people will not stand It. Our llepartment Is not sufficient as it la and it must not be crippled in any way. We have been trying for years to run a fire de partment for a city of 125,000 inhabitants on the basis of a place of 75,000, and It Is a kronder to me that we have fared as well as We have. Our appropriation of $125,000 la barely enough to pay the actual running expenses of the department, without leav ing any margin for enlargement, or even Ifor renewal of equipment as It becomes "worn out, and the only natural result ho been a growing overlap of the Are depart fcnent fund. Until the appropriation Is In creased that overlap will continue to grow nd must necessarily do so. . Insurance Rates Lower. i "The other Board of Are and Police Commissioners the board which was ap pointed by me added ten men to the Are Bepartment last spring at the urgent re Quest of the Commercial club and tho business men of the city and I notice tho Proatch board has had some criticism to offer on that score, but I also notice that that Increase In the department reduced the rate of Insurance in the business dis trict Just two points. Certainly when that phase of the question Is considered It. Is plain that the business men of the city will not allow the Are department to be cut down even temporarily to fur ther the plans of Mr. Broatch. For the Immediate contingency some way must be found to at least keep tho department up to Ita present standard and for the future re must take, measures to secure a ma terial increase in the appropriation." Discussing another phase of the same question, one of the me-mbers of the city council said: "I don't see why the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners should put It up to the council to And a way out of this predicament or to help It out In any way execpt as a way of shifting the re sponsibility from Itself. If the members of the Board of Fire and Police Commission ers would be personally liable for an over draft of the Are department fund, ao would the members of the council be personally liable for any excess of the Are department appropriation. Either alternative would be a direct violation of the law, as I under stand it, and either body would In the same manner and In the same measure be guilty and liable."
