Long Beach to Have Paid Fire Fighters Special to the Brooklyn Eagle Long Beach, Oct. 30-The City Council has passed an ordinance providing for the complete reorganization of the Long Beach Fire Department, divesting the Volunteer Fire Department of authority and establishing a paid force for fighting fires. The entire force will be under supervision of a salaried fire commissioner.

F. A. Murray, chief of the Teaneck. N. Fire Department, recommended passage of the ordinance on the basis of his investigation of conditions in the local department.

In making the report he criticized as "ridiculous" the system of men being hired to get the fire apparatus rolling at the sound of the alarm but not being allowed to handle the fighting equipment at fires until volunteer men arrived at the scene. Chief Murray was retained by the city to make the survey after Chief Michael Morrison of the Long Beach Volunteer Fire Department resigned as volunteer commissioner in protest against the appointment of Charles Hyde as a paid member of the Fire Commission. 8 ZOMBIES INFUSED HORTICULTURAL SPIRITS IN McKEE, WIFE AVERS Los Angeles, Oct. 30 (U.P.) -Mark T.

She is survived by one son and three daughters. Funeral services will be held in the George Negro children," Mrs. Houghton explained, "and we have full sympathy for these children. But we didn't feel that we were quite ready to do so. The fact is we asked the city to take their children back because we haven't any room and have closed our intake.

We gave up our home on Atlantic which the War Department rented, to go to the country. We bought the Frances K. Thorne estate on S. Country Road and Irish East Islip, 52 rooms and 50 acres of land. We have 100 children now and room for only 50 or 60." Asked whether the institution would accept Negro children in the tuture, Mrs.

Houghton said, "There 1S no use talking about that. I would not discuss it." The non-conforming institutions, all Protestant, have received $6 to $7.50 a week per child for caring for children as public charges. About' half of the 405 children have already been removed, Commissioner Hodson said. The Brooklyn institution had 137 children as of Aug. 31.

The others named are the American Female Guardian Society and Home for the Friendless, 936 Woodycrest A the Bronx, 66 children; Orphan Asylum of the City of New York, Hastingson-Hudson, 97; Saint Mary's in the Field, Valhalla, and the Society for the Relief of Half-Orphans and Destitute Children, 110 Manhattan Manhattan, 98.
