Slxth-St. Bide, FARCE CHARGE FALLS FLAT Commissioner Blgelow Champions Cause or Mr. Daljy but Mayor, Mr. Dieck and Mr. Brewster Uphold Plan In Force Tear. The city' so-called efficiency sys tem, which has been tried out tor a year and two months and which has been declared by members of the Municipal Civil Service Board and others to be a failure, is to be con timed in service. The City Council, by vote of three to two yesterday, refused to uphold Commissioner Daly In his Dlan to cast the system into tne waste ha.-krt. An ordinance which Sir. Daly introduced abolishlns the system was Doftnoned indefinitely. Commissioner Daly declared that. the ryitem is a farce, and is expensive of operation and a complete waste of the time nnd money used in Its operation lie was barked in his views by Com missioner Dlselow. .Mayor Albee and Commissioners Dieck and Brewster. however, took the opposite side of the controversy and voted to continue the ratem In force. - Commissioner Brewster admitted that the system has hown defects, but he fir he believes these can be corrected. -I think." he said, "that It Is only fair for the citv to have a system which will make it possible for employes to know when their work is Rood or bail. It Is fair to the employes. Mayor Albre said he considers the system to have merit, and Commissioner Dieck drvl.tred that it had had a steadying ef fect in his department. "It is a farce."' said Commissioner Daly. "Under the system laborers are iven consideration for personality, it doesn't take any treat amount of per sonality to wield a pick or a shovel. In my judgment. The system Is Ignored in most of the departments and bu reaus, while in others It Is enforced stringently. In one department men are aiven merit marks for ability to perform work other than their regu lar duties. What advantage i It to the city if a man can perform other duties? ' - "I believe there should be some rec ord kept of marked efficiency or ineffl rienry. but the present system of keep- rnjr minute records the way It Is belna; dona under the system Is dome a lot of work that is thrown away. It Is an e-itravasance that should not be toler ated any lonser." : Under the system as it stands now e:nploye are siven merit marks for exceptional work and demerit marks for inefficiencies or violations of the city's rules Rovemingr employes. As a reward for efficient service it has been understood that the Council would pro mote employes In rank. Promotions would carry salary Increases. Although all but a few employes in the service had the full standard of rating: under the efficiency system the salary In creases were not granted. - In some departments the system has been Ignored entirely, while In others tt haa been enforced moderately, and rn others tt has. been applied as strictly S3 possible. JAIL BREAK IS ONLY VISION 1 ad With ITead Between Bars I'ools Water Bureau Clerk. A reported jail break yesterday proved to be an optical illusion experi enced by one of the clerks in the city water bureau. - A telephone message to Chief Jailer Hurlburt yesterday yave the exciting: Information that someone was trying to break out of the jail on the eighth -floor. -This Is a clerk io the water bureau," said the voice over the phone. "I can see the Jail from this window. Some body is trying to get out of jail. I can see them sawing at the bars. They have bent two of the bars apart." Mr. Hurlburt didn't become excited about it. but he did investigate. Going to the eighth floor he found one of the boys In the juvenile ward with his head sticking between the bars, watching things on the street below. These bars had been bent some months ago when a number of mischievous boys had been confined there and allowed to run free In the corridors. Deputy Sheriff Tatens waved a signal to the City Hall, told the youngster he had better look out of some other win dow, and left the corridor. The bent bars are not of the type used in other parts of the jaiL These two particular bars are loose, and by turning them, a slignuy wiaer aperture is presented for the boys to look through. Seeing the bars thus turned, A. P. Rufner. water bureau clerk, thought powerful hands had torn loose the heavy steel bars. PERSONALMENTION. T. G. Bligh, of Salem, is at the Ore gon. F. E.
