tomorrow. The extensive removal operations have been carried out on School, New Boston and Middle sts. and Mishawum road for more than one year. This, it is charged, was done despite a 1947 ruling by the City Council prohibiting the removal of sand and gravel below the level of the street without permission of the board. The sand and gravel was being trucked to Logan Airport, East Boston.

At the School-st. pit alone, it was brought out, as many as 120 trucks were operating daily at the site. Tonight's meeting was not scheduled but was called as a result of last Monday's session.

According to Chief McCauley, the police department had never been notified of the ruling.

No Definite Troof Alderman Winn called on Foley to tell the entire Council what he had told the committee last Monday, and Foley, while admitting the conversation, said the other party was "feeling good" at the time and he had not definite proof who the officials were who allegedly received the bribe money. Here Alderman Duran jumped to his feet and said Foley should not make statements unless he was ready to prove them." "lf he is not ready to give the Council the information he should be required to- resign," Duran said. Council President Thomas A. Shaughnessy offered a motion that the District Attorney of Middlesex County, George A. Thompson, should be asked to "investigate charges of bribery in connection with sand and gravel removal." In order to prevent any delay, Shaughnessy immediately asked reconsideration of the motion and the Council quickly passed it a second time.

Mrs. Margaret G. Kane, City Clerk and wife of former Mayor William E. Kane, was ordered to ask Thompson to start the probe. Work Ordered Stop Stoppage of further removal of sand and gravel from' affected areas in the town was also ordered.

New Englander In the Hold-Up of the Boston Office of Brink's, Incorporated, a very substantial number of checks were stolen after having been endorsed for deposit. Those checks were entirely worthless to the thieves, and the only persons who could wrongfully benefit from the theft ere the makers of the checks. Such checks included thousands which were issued by individuals and firms to pay the regular bills of the Telephone Company, the Electric Company, Department Stores, the Dairies, Merchants, and others. They also included checks for salaries, wages and other items, which the payees had cashed at neighborhood stores and which may have passed through several hands. Most of them were for small amounts but the aggregate was large.

The task of obtaining duplicate checks from over a hundred thousand people was and still is a troublesome one. But with the cooperation of all concerned, over 75 of the checks have already been duplicated. WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR PART We are grateful to each individual, firm and corporation who quickly responded to the requests of Brink's Customers for duplicate checks We appreciate the time, trouble and hard work of the Banks and Customers, and their personnel. THE RESULT TO DATE IS A CREDIT TO THE HONESTY AND GOOD FAITH OF THE COMMUNITY. BUT i we'd like to appeal to those who have not yet duplicated their checks for Brink's Customers.

ARE YOU ONE OF THESE? Have you looked over your Bank Statements jind determined what checks issued on or prior to January 17, 1950 are still outstanding? If you have not been asked by a Brink's Customer for a duplicate, perhaps your check was one of those cashed at a Store which did not keep a full record. If you are an Employer who pays salaries or wages by check, will you please make inquiries on those still outstanding. PLEASE DUPLICATE YOUR OUTSTANDING CHECKS upon the request of a Brink's Customer. He will be able to establish to your satisfaction that it was lost. We have appointed WILLIAM J.

McGETTRICK Insurance Adjusters; 120 Milk Street, Boston, Telephone Liberty 2-6901 to help complete the If you have such an outstanding check but have received no request from a Brink's Customer, please write or telephone Mr. McGettrick and his office will investigate the facts and arrange for your duplicate check to be paid to the proper Customer.
