In connection with the new policy at the city hall, five single men who naa neen employed as drivers in tne cre matory department quit work yesterday. in otner denartn-.ents it was estimated that 20 men had been let out. J. F. Ltockhart. assistant superintend ent of the crematory, when asked why the changes had been made in the cre matory staff, said yesterday: The men were let out primarily be cause thoy were single men. However, two or tne men, on Investigation, were found not to be naturalized.
