Vare, of Phila delphia, had not been in Florida it is likely that the bill introduced by Sen ator William J. Burke, of Pittsburgh, for a two-platoon system In tho Pitts burgh bureau of tire, would have been reported from the Senate municipal affairs committee this morning and passed on first reading. That will likely be done next week. President Charles 11. Kline, of the Senate, want ed to have the bill put on the floor, but learned that Senator Vare has it with him. The latter Is chairman of the committee. The representatives of the Pittsburgh firemen, Samuel A. Fink, Fred E. Ober and William < 'amp, have been very busy since they arrived bust night. Representative Thomas P. Geary introduced the lire laddies to the members and Senators and in a short time they had made considerable progress. They will come back each week until the fate of the bill is known. Tho present outlook is bright for the bill because the Scran ton delegation favors it. That city is also included. Mr. Fink has been explaining the human interest side of the measure to the legislators and found willing list eners. The bill calls for two shifts for the firemen of second-class cities. The men on the day platoon would work 10 hours and the night crew 14 hours. The idea is that if the men are given half their time at home that they are more efficient, better satisfied and more capable of giving the dangerous service that the cities demand of them. RABBI TO DELIVER PRAYER Rabbi Freund, of Ohev Sholoin Con gregation, has been Invited to make the prayer in the House of Repre sentatives to-morrow morning.
