"The police committee should have been called in," he objected. "I tio not think the graduated scalo will work for policemen. The report is entirely too hurried and the commit tee haa merely skimmed along In its investigations." He asked If the street committee had been consult ed and Chairman Buchncr replied that It had. "Alderman Ward would have been Jailed In for consultation if b had let the committee know he wanted to be consulted," aald Itlgdon. . j ' '"In your street department report what do you mean by 'sewer expert," asked Ward. "Is there such a thing ."' "He is considered an expert," an- sweied Rigdon. ' "The city engineer tells me there Is no sewer expert," replied Ward. Mayor Keyes objected that the, trouble with the sliding seal for policemen la that It would become confused for the reason that tne chief is elected every two years and appoints his patrolmen when elected. 'He ought to keep the same force If possible," replied Rigdon "and get the thing out of politics. Johnson came in with the objec tion that the members of the fire department can be raised only to $89 a month and that they work twenty four hours a day, while under the new plan policemen who work twelve hours can be raised to $85. "This will cause a lot of dissatisfaction," he said. At this point McClelland took a fling at the report. "I find upon inquary amon,; the street workers that all of the street labor is common labor," he said. "There is no sewer expert, or any other kind of expert. I find, how ever, that there are expert families.1 It appears to depend on a man's fam- ily connection. Men who can rush their horses --into the barns by o'clock are considered experts.

Australia, Feb. li. Discovery, that the Australian gov ernment had placed orders in thr United States for building of .fouH teen wooden sailing ships, has arous ed; the trade! unionist to attack th government. The criticism is inten sified by the charge that the govern ment has been shipping Australian lumber to American yards for the construction of the vessels. The Premier, William IL. Hughes Is acused of having broken faith wth the Australian ship rights by glvliig the American workmen the contracts instead of having the vessels built here. i Mr. Hughes replied Ty saying that the ships were ordered from the United States to meet the critical sit uation and that with the cooperation of Australian' workmen, the govern ment was ready to engage in tllp building In Australia. He said that the last information from the United States was that the construction cf the fourteen vessels was being expedited- - Commenting upon the affair, W. A. JJrown, secretary of the Port Philip 8hip Wrights Society, said: "It seems disgraceful that, while Mr. Hughes has been agitating for shipbuilding in Australia, Austral ian trad em en should have been so hoodwinked in regard to the scheme and that vessels are to be built in America Instaed of Australia, espec ially when timber has to be pent from here for the purpose."
