ASKEDJY BOARD
Will Reduce Police. Force by
Not Filling

Fti ng ifaolnttona railing on the good olt-
liens of Atlanta to old the police force In
enforcing the prohibition law were adopted
by the police rommlasion nt Its regular
meeting Tuesday afternoon.
The resolutions were Introduced by
tain Enxltah nnd were adopted unanimously,
la the discussion remarks were tnade to th®
effect that some of the afaunch prohibition*
lata hare not been lariating the police ua
waa expected, bnt Instead bare assumed an
attitude of criticism. Some of the commis
sioners seemed to think tbcse prohlMtlon-
iatx should aid tho officers before attempt
ing to condemn them. .
This appeal to the cltlaena waa based
partly ou the fact that the small npprourln-
fion allowed the police depnrtraent wllf not
permit an Increase lu the force, which
Chairman Brandon nnd others have deemed
necessary In the proper enforcement of [he
prohibition law. Instead of the /"/ce being
Increased. It now seems probable that It
will not be maintained at Ita present stand
ard of strength. Owing to lack of fmids,
the places of officers who arc dismissed or
resign Inlhe future will not he filled.
The report of Chief Jennings for the'
month of January waa received and allowed
that, altho the amount of fines Imposed

ROME, Ga., Fab. 12.—At the meet
ing of the city council a resolution, In
troduced by Alderman C, B. Ooetchtue,
requesting Representatives Wright,
Dean and Chambtee and Senator Akin
to Introduce a bill repealing that clause
or the act giving larger powers to rail,
rood commission, to control atreet rail,
way. eleelrlc light and power, gas,

was adopted.
The resolution sets forth that street
railway, electric light nnd power, gas,
telephone nnd waterworks companies In
almost every Instance are 'crested and
operated for the service of cltlxens of
some particular municipality, and that
the problems growing out of auch serv
ice are locul and not general; that the
placing of theae ultmtles under the
control of the Georgia railroad commie,
slon creates a cumbersome end un-
wieldly method of handling theae prob
lems, liable to do Injustice and Injury
to both parties.
