At that time he told reporters: profession of a policeman is a noble one and offers as many opportunities for an ambitious young man today as it did 30 years ago."

He became a lieutenant in 1922 and a captain in 1929, serving with the latter rank in Harlem. A year later he was made a deputy inspector and assigned to the 14th Division in Brooklyn and later the 4th Division in Manhattan.

Called in to the deputy chief inspector's office at headquarters, he was made a deputy chief inspector, skipping the rank of inspector. His next assignment was as head of the uniformed force in Queens.

and Moore (Okla.) have called on Mr. Truman to cancel the Lilienthal appoint' ment. Senate Democrats believed that if a vote were taken on Lilienthal now, he would win Senate confirmation. They were frankly fearful, however, that extended delay would enable his opposition to build up its forces. Before Ross' announcement, Senator Carl M.

N. visited the President and discussed Lilienthal. He said he came away from the conference convinced the nomination would not be withdrawn. Hatch said he believed Lilienthal ought to be confirmed. Concerning charges that Lilienthal was sympathetic to communism, which the nominee and his supporters have denied, Hatch said: "The tactics of opposing every nominee who comes up in the Senate, even to the extent of reviling and condemning nominees, ultimately will result in Government not being able to obtain men of character and of responsibility to carry on the functions of government." Mother Saves 2 Boys From Death Continued from Page and waded out up to their necks, then, pounding on the ice in front as they went along, they swam to the two youngsters and brought them ashore.

One was Philip and the other was Patrick Sweeney of 21 Celeste Court. Meanwhile, someone had called police and an ambulance, and a police launch appeared offshore, but the only one who had anything to do was an ambulance attendant, who treated all four for exposure and ordered they take hot baths and fubdowns and then go to bed. Philip and Patrick explained they had been walking on the ice when it gave way beneath them. Philip had managed to get on solid ice, but when he tried to pull Patrick out, the combined weight proved too much for the ice and he had been plunged into the icy water again. Both boys can swim.
