ReviewBoards
(Continued from Page 1)
Department heads will prepare
for the review board, alter which
each department will be given an
opportunity to appear personally
to support his memorandum. Civ
vil Service Director Terry said.
State payrolls, carrying present
salaries and classifications plus the
proposed salaries and classifica
tions as recommended in the Bar
rington report, are now being pre
pared and will be forwarded to
the department heads within next
week.
Public hearings will be held by
the sub-committee. Dr. Eaton an
nounced, when department heads
and individual employes will be
t'iven tn opportunity of discussing
policy matters relating to thej
Barringlon report.
Time does not permit the com
mittee to go into individual pay
or classification protests, Dr. Eat
on said, but every effort will be
made to allow state employes to
discuss the general effect of the
plan on any particular depart
ment or any other policy matter re
lating to the plan.
If the recommendations of the
Barrington report are adopted,
either as recommended or with
modification and changes, the plan
would become effective on July,
1, 1955, it was announced. Such
an effective date would be nec
essary, he said, because addition
al funds must be approbated to
carry out 'the plan, should it meet
with legislative approval.
More than 100 department and
agency heads present at the meet
ing, Monday, heard the review
board plan outlined, and obtained
clarification of numerous ques
tions relating to matters that may
be presented to the review board.
Civil Service Director Terry
made it clear that any request
for review must carry with H in
formation that will support a re
quest for a change either in the
new classification or the proposed
pay schedule.

NEW YORK, Feb. 20 Detective Frank Malerba wends hit
weary way from East Harlem tenement today after firing a last
shot into bullet-ridden body of gunman August Robles as it
lay in the shattered structure- following a 90-minute battle. "I
took no chances," said Malerba, who wears bullet-proof vest
under his coat. "He's a tricky guy, so I pegged one more shot
at him." The detective carries in his left hand three guns found
near Robles' body which the desperado had taken from three
policemen he disarmed when Ihey came to pick him up Fri
day for questioning in an ex-convict's slaying. (AP Wirephplo) ,
New York Gangster Dies
In Battle With Police
NEW YORK l A lone, angry
criminal who flung defiance and
bullets at the world until the last,
lay dead on a slab at the police
morgue Monday the only way he
said they could get him.
Thousands of people estimated
up to 100.000 at times jammed
streets, rooftops and other vantage
points Sunday to watch the blaz
ing, 90-minute battle that cut down
scrubby August Robles,
He made his last stand in an
East Harlem tenement house. The
massed forces of the law guns,
gas and 200 policemen closed in
shouts echoed up and down the
streets amid the staccato of gun-
tire, and thump ol tear gas bombs.
- Not since an army of police
drove another law-hating criminal.
Francis Corwley, to bay 24 years
ago had New York witnessed such
a show of violence,
The pint-sized gunman had been
the object of an intense, three-day
manhunt in the city's Puerto Rican
districts.
Police, rankled by the memory
of his two escapes Friday, were
determined to get their man. -
The elusive desperado was at
last tracked down in a third-floor
tenement hideaway on 112th Street
near Park Avenue.
Two hundred policemen sur
rounded the shabby building and
pumped machine-gun, rifle and

At one point tear gas caused a
fire in the embattled four-room
apartment. Firemen turned
streams of water into the building
to quench the blaze even before
the shooting ended.
Finally there were no more an
swering shots.
Police gingerly entered the
charred apartment, still reeking of
acrid gunpowder and tear gas. A
priest went with them to admin
ister last rites.
On the floor, in- a pool of blood
and water, lay Robles, who had
sworn he would never bo taken
alive. Blood oozed from a ragged
chest wound. A rough tournique
had been tied around his lelt arm,
pierced by another bullet.
He was barefoot and clad only
in trousers and an undershirt. A
woman's slipper and children's
toys were on the floor beside him,
