PROMOTION IS CONSIDERED Civil Service Board to Discuss Code Tangle Tonight. To consider the tangle of affairs created by the city's so-called efficiency system, the Municipal Civil Service Board ,wi'.l hold a special meeting to night at the City Hall. The Board will take up the question of holding pro motion examinations, with the idea of seeing what effect such a plan would have.

It is said most of the men in the City Auditor's office would have to take this examination to hold their present posi tions. It is argued also that if promotions must be made on examination ex clusively, hundreds of the city em ployes will have to take special ex aminations to hold their present posi tions. These employes have been ad vanced in salary, without having re ceived a different classification. GERMAN HEIRS GET SHARES Court Order for Partial Distribution of Wcnimc Instate Issued.
