THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 6. 1914. 53 ' Y RE) COMMENDATIONS 0 F CHIEF L DISREGARDED BY CM SERVICE BOARD Trouble Breaks? Out Over the - Matter of Examination for 'Captains, NSPECTORS REFUSE TO MAKE REPORTS Four Employes in City Health Bureau - Decline to Com ply With Rules. Because the municipal civil service board disregarded the recommenda tion given by Chief of Police Clark to two men who took the examination for captains trouble has been started between the chief and the members of the board. Chief Clark charts that In disregarding bit recommendations the board la overstepping Its authority and that the move fooks as though it is trying to play favorites. On the other band the board fharges thai the chief lias made a blunder. . In the examination Chief Clark was supposed to give each ot thiose aspir ing to the position a recommendation on a basis of 10 points. When all of the papers were markett and; the chief was asked for the, recommendations he gave Leon V. Jenkins and Chester A. Inskeep, how acting captains, a rec ommendation of 10 points leach and positively refused to giv aiy of the others any recommendation. Chief Clark Explains. Chief Clark says that be gave the recommendations to these two men because he knew that their., work was all right, but that he could give the others no mark becauna they hnd had no experlenee that he knew of. lTo states that the recommendations al lowed was a privilege extended to him by the board. Ttie members of the board charge. however, that under its rules and regu lations the chief Is required to give all of those passing an examination a rec ommendation. This the chltff posl tlvely refuses to recognize. When the successful applicants were announced yesterday the three mem bers of the board, George W. Caldwell A. K. Clark and John K. Logan, unani mously adopted a resolution disregard ing the recommendations of the. chief Following the adoption of the reso lution the board decided to rate all applicants on a basis of 90 Instead of 100 as prescribed by the rules; pertain, lng to civil service. Out of the 24 who took the examine tlon on the basis of 90 points only five received passing grades. These, in the order of passing, were H. A. Circle, C. A. Inskeep. I.. V. Jenkins, L. A. Harms and W. II. Koyle. Circle re celved a rating of 83.02; Inskeep, 79,43 Jenkins, 79.lt; Harms, 78.02, and Royle, 68.72. The passing grade was reduced from 75 to 67 per cent Mayor Albee said this morning that he would not appoint two) from the eligible list Immediately, but wait un til be bad made an Investigation. .More trouble Is brewing in the city health bureau as the result of inspec tors In the market, meat and sanitary division yesterday refusing to compile reports showing the places visited the day before and how they spent their time while working for the city. Four cf the - inspectors flatly refused to make out a report. John C. Lane, erstwhile soapbox orator, now a meat inspector, was loud in his denunciation of the efficiency report system, stating that the entire matter was "unconstitutional," and that it could not be enforced. He and others left, the office, without making out these reports. Dr. Charles A. Ballard, chief of the division, reported the matter to Health Officer Marcellus, who stated that the men would be required to make out the reports. Dr. Marcellus said this morn ing that those who yesterday refused made out reports today. . He also stated that there would be develop ments soon as the result of the atti tude of the Inspectors. Many complaints have been made that these inspectors are attending to other than the city's business during office hours, and it is stated, that be cause or this outside work, the inspect ors refused to make out efficiency eports.

It seemed likely that the resolution would pass the house, despite all its opponents can do, but a hard fight was looked for in the senate, where th president will have to have Republican aid and votes to win. Certain Democratic lawmakers were discussing today a plan to empower the president with sole authority to fix tolls or grant exemptions, as a sub stitute for straight-out repeal of the present American exemption clause in the law. Senator Polndexter of Washington introduced a resolution in "Action on the recommendations of the secretary of agriculture for elimi nation of certain lands from the said national forests is suspended pending consideration of protests against the elimination." .
