APPEAL TO THEIR FRJENDS
Queries Which Firemen
Submit to Citizens
IS A fireman, giving the whole
twenty-four hours to duty, worth
more pny than the day laborer, who
tolls eight hours?
Is ho justly requited with galary
that amounts to less than fifteen
cents an hour?
Is any other city department run
on n cheaper basis than that upon
which tho safety of your lives and
property dopends?
Is this condition to continue with
your consent and Uicit approval ?
If you can set it right will you
do so?
THEN wrlto to your Councilman
or, better still, bcc him, and tell him,
as your representative and spokes
man in municipal affairs, to end it.
lie can If he will, nnd you, with your
neighbors, whoso votes elect him, aro
hiB master.
That time-worn habit of slumbering se
renely until thft hour of Imminent ilntiger
nnd then culling upon the firemen to re
spond and to ro-cstnbllsh anfety and se
curity Is nealn being applied.
The latest application obtains within the
Bureau of Flro Itself, and Ib made neces
sary by tho necllBonco of previous city of
ficials who failed to provide for the welfare
of tlifl faithful firemen throuRh fear that
proper means of Biich provision might cx
clto some opposition of "penny-wlse-pounc!
foolish" city financiers.
Now In desperation the nremen them
selves nro being appeoled to. In the name
of charity to tholr dependent brethren, to
make further sacrifice from their meager
stipend. That tho provisions of the Bullitt
bill would bo violated by compliance does
not seem to affect the situation. Klthcr the
firemen must como to Its assistance "vol
untarily" or tho pension fund must go out
ef exlstenco, ond somo 252 members of tho
bureau, thirty-seven widows and eighteen
dependent children bo left without Bupport.
That this theatcned calamity may be
averted appeals have been sent out to every
member of the Bureau of Fire asking his
; favorable vote to a proposition to Increase
the mommy assessment ol ovcijt man m
the department. Just now this pro rata
sharo of tho pension fund li fixed at tho
) mlt laid down In tho Bullitt bill, or two
per cent of tho annual salary This assess
ment Is tho chief Income of tho fund, with
the e&cccptlon of an appropriation of $18,000
from Councils nnd a share In tho proceed
it the Stato tax on foreign Insuranco com
panies. To levy more than the two per cent on
annual salaries would be Illegal, but tho
men. If they wish, may mako whatever
donation they wish to tho fund The cir
cular appeal now sent out to them asks that
they "donato" one day's pay out of cacli
month's salary for that purpose It Is ad
mitted that oven a unanimously favorablo
response will fall far short of i sulllclency
If the fund Is to .enduro.
A monthly deficit of $10,000 Is eating Into
tho capital of the fund to nn alarming do
gree, and the mnximum of relief that a
day's pay a month would nltord would
lessen the deficiency less than $1000 a
month.
Public appeal In behalf of tho fund with
a Ale,w to benefit might bo suggested, but
thero Is ltttlo likelihood that an order of
the Director of Public Sifcty, lamed In
1911. forblddlnir audi benefits, will bo an-
r"' nulled at this time. Tho firemen, tho rank
and file, aro being called upon, as tney
havo been In tho past when financial nld Is
i" A mn (nalll, n MlAm svnrnoD fl Lf M I I tt fn OQt

to pinch tholr meager Incomes still narucr,
rather than that tholr retired brethren and
the widows and orphans of their fallen
comrades shall como to penury.
The firemen themselves aro strains to
keep secret this call upon their charity.
They aro ashamed to place themselves In a
position that appears to bo one to exclto
pity. But today, with this additional de
mand staring them grimly In the face, the
desperation of the Philadelphia firemen,
and tho seeming apathy with which that
condition Is regarded by citizens nnd Coun
cllmen alike, cannot bo kept hidden.
"Either Councils must do somothlng
speedily to relieve tho situation or condi
tions within the department will become
Intolerable to tho youngermen," declared
a veteran member of tho bureau today,
"Wo cannot keep up our pension fund
much longer, that Is evident. The Increas
ing cost of living Is making tho salary of
tho now coiner, $75 a month, less than the
needs of a single man. How can a mar
ried man support a family and keep himself
In proper condition In tho matter of cloth
ing and pay tho various assessments out
of that amount? Tho bureau Is short of
men how, one engine company having but
Blx men and a new company Is to go Into
commission as soon as tho men aro se
cured. Tho eligible list handed down yes
terday by the Civil Service Commfaslon
contains 103 names. But will all of these
193 men accept places In the bureau at the
present Balary and with every prospect that
the pension fund will be exhausted long
before they become eligible to retire? It
tan't a pleasant prospect, It seems to me.
"Why the business men of this city do
not rise fn force and demand from their
Councllmen a prompt and Just treatment
for the men of tho Flro Bureau Is beyond
me. We have laid "our case before the
Councllmen, but they tell us to be patient
and they will taHe, caro of us In proper
order. How long must we wait? It Is up
to the citizens and business men of Phila
delphia to say. Their Joint pressure upon
the Mayor and Councllmen would make our
condition the first business In order at the
next session of Common Council.
"Let our friends call upon the Mayor and
Councils In our behalf during the remainder
of this week. Our committee Is working
nobly to stimulate this sentiment and I
know that mych Individual work has been
done. We are going to stick together and
pour a high pressure stream of public opin
ion Into these Councllmen until the smoke
of their Indifference clears away, and then,
with the people behind us, we will go In
and win."

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29. Indications of

LONDON, Nov. 29. Whether tho sub
marine which sank the American steamship
Chemung, with the Stars and Stripes flut
tering from her masthead, was a German

clally revealed today, with receipt of com
plete reports by American Ambassador
Pago from American Consul Putnam, at

Both Americans here nnd the British
Government were anxious lo establish the

that Captain John L. Duffy and his crow

to strike the American flag before the
Chemung was sunk by torpedo and gunfire.

Tltnnn has always been a question In my
mind as to whether It Is worth while to
attempt tho selection of alt-high school, all
academic or nil-American football elevens.
Even after the mtfst sincere efforts of the
Impartial the result contains ns much In
justice ns Justice. In the case of prepara
tory school', especially, anything like com
plete data Is out of tho question
Tho choice of coveted positions on these
mythical elevens la try likely to fall on
those who have won newspaper mention
through some bit ot spectacular play, while
reliable players who bear tho brunt of the
work go unnoticed This applies particu
larly to linemen.
It n with some natural hesitation, there
fore, that nt the request of Louis It. Jaffe
I have left encouragement to this past
season diversion of the sports writers
There nro, of course, some players whoso
work so shines out that they cannot ecnpe
mention. Among these are neukauff, West
Philadelphia High School. Boselsky. South

Bcuknuff Is probably the most versatile
player In schoolboy ranks, playing tnckle
on defense and on tho offense an excellent
kicker (thero seem to be a lot of good
kickers nt W. P ), end runner and receiver
of forward passes.
Itoaetsky, without much question, Is the
most remarknbll llno-plunglng fullback seen
In Interscholnstlc games for several years,
and In addition he throws tho forward pass
well, and probably Is the severest kicker
In the school ranks.
, Klnsmnn's work has been notable nil
senson, especially so In tha Northeast-West
Philadelphia game, when, badly handi
capped by his physical condition, his hard
playing was one of Northeast's few re
deeming features.
Bunnln'a play throughout the season has
caused favorablo comment. Ho runs his

Plersol, of Pcnn Charter, and Patterson,

the speediest of a llmired field, and ho also
was a good mnn on offense both In handling
his opponent nnd In carrying the ball.
Hunt was exceptionally flue on defense and
also proved a good leader, while his re
ceiving ot passes wns very Impressive. The
other tackles, PuK,. of Kplscopal, and
Slcgel, of Pcnn Charter, worked well.
Smith, st.ii ot the Mayor, was tho hardest
defensive playing guard In the league. His
quick charging nblllty and sure tackling
made him valuable for Tenn Charter In
breaking up plavs before they were well
under way. J, Spurr, also of Penn Charter,
was the heaviest man In tho league, nnd ho
made himself felt by all opponents. He
proved vnlunhlo In getting through the
lino nnd blocking kicks. Hauff, of Fenn
Charter, and Haxlctt, of Kplscopal, were
closo contenders for guard positions on the
