Police Commissioner Ringer is in a quandary as to how he will keep faith with 71 new policemen appoint ed during the last six weeks, if the ' city council further delays passage of-tys ordinance which provides for increased pay f for policemen and contains also several revisions in the rules of the pdlice department. The city council yesterday again insisted that Mr. Ringer should sep arate his ordinance, making the sal ary proposition independent from any other subject matter. Say Many Are Underpaid. Mr. Ringer announced that it has been tactly understood that the mini mum pay for patrolmen shall be increased from $100 to $125 per month, beginning November i. It is proposed to-increase the maxi mum from $125 to-l$140 after two years of service. Gty Commissioners Butler and Zimman recommended that the commissioners hold a conference this' week to consider the salaries of all city, employes. They insisted that many city hall employes are underpaid. Their recommendations prevailed. 1 "It was agreed between the com missioners, General Wood and some business men that the policemen should have more p)y," Mr. Ringer said..; . Oppose Ringer Rules. the. reply to that was that the city commissioners are not opposed to allowing the policemen an increase of pay, but they are opposed to Mr. Ringer adding certain rules and regulations to this salar ordinance. In this ordinance Mr. Ringer pro poses to give the chief of police un restricted authority to demote", pro mote and transfer any member' of the department. Thje mayor and commissioners want that provision in a . separate ordinance,' so they may express themselves on this subject without jeopardizing the merits of the salary feature. ' The ordinance was again referred back to the police commissioner, with directions to bring in two ordi nances. In the meanwhile the Com missioners will confer on the gen eral salary situation.
