TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1922. NASSAU CONSTABLES WIN FRIENDSHIP OF COMMITTEE OF 16 Charter Makers Find Peace Officers Abused Would Have Them Appointed.

Not Abolished (Special to The Eagle.) Mineola, L. Feb. 21-The poordown-trodden constable has found a friend--in fact, 16 of them-in the personnel of the Committee of 16 which is writing the new form of government for Nassau County. Whenever a discussion of the police situation--a Nassau police department, for instance--came up the much abused constable was given a crack in the neck. When the Committee 16 recently called the constables before it to learn from their own lips just what they have to do and how they were doing it, they learned that the constables do work and before the evening had passed the committee had formed a conclusion the constable is a that" much maligned individual.

The 16 110W share the belief that the constable is a necessary part of the police system of county. The committee also believes that constables have some direct head and that they should work under direction and supervision. As it now stands. the constables have no head. They are elected by the people and are responsible to the people, individually.

They have no one to whom they must report and no one knows just what they are doing. The constables showed the committee records of their achievements in office and established that they are rarely resting. and to the contrary, are working morning, noon and night. The plan of the committee, without definite decision in the matter. is any to make the office of constable an appointive one, with a directing head to have charge of the 12 officials holding that office.

On the face of things, it does not seem probable that the political parwill welcome the change. The ties constable is an important spoke in the wheel in a town. He is in a political position to build up a political following and invariably he does. The party depends on him to solid front among his constituents and if is live wire he does just that. He also a being a candidate for office injects a political flavor or into a campaign becomes a person to reckon with.

The Committee of 16 is divided on whether meetings of that body should be thrown open. or whether persons from civic associations should be heard for an hour and then depart the committee to gO into to enable session. Chairman William executive favors open meetings. He S. Pettit says that it is by open discussion that exchanged and he believes ideas are that much good will result.

Freeport, Feb. 21-A search has been instituted by the Freeport for Blanche Thompson, a 13- police school girl who has been year-old missing from her home at 290 South since last Tuesday. Mrs. Main Frederick Rich, the mother of the states that she left home with girl, books under her arm to attend her the Grove st. school.

When the girl did not return in the evening, the mother notified the police, who investigated and found that Blanche had left her books at Murray's grocery store on South Main st.

She is described as being 5 feet 5 inches tall, rather slender, with a dark complexion, blue eyes and light brown hair. Mr.

KEEP SCHOOLS OPEN WASHINGTON'S DAY (Special to The Eagle.) Sea Cliff, L. Feb. 21-Rudolph Krupka, of this place, voiced his objections before the School Board at last night's meeting to the fact that the schools are to be kept open here on Washington's Birthday.

The board listened to his objections, but decided to keep the schools open, nevertheless. The schools will also be kept open tomorrow at Glen Cove. "Patriotic exercises in the schoolroom will commemorate the day," declared Mrs. Minnie Van Nostrand, a member of the board, this morning. "We explained matters to Mr.

Krupka last night. His was the only objection 10 our plan. The optional in Nassau County as regards, giving a holiday on Election Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays. We kept the schools open on Election Day, closed on Lincoln's Birthday, and they will be open tomorrow. We did this because the law requires a certain number of school days a year.

Mr. Connolly said. Since Mr. Smedley's resignation he has had a good rest and his health has greatly benefited. President Connolly also said that he has collaborated with Mr.

Smedley in everything that has been done since his resignation was handed in, and that Acting Leader John P. Kissing has continuously consulted with Mr. Smedley and that nothing has been done without his approval. The resolution was then unanimously passed and the committee named by Chairman Butler was County Clerk Edward W. Cox, Thomas M.

Creem, John R. Higgins, Mrs. Julia McLaughlin, Mrs. Dorothea Courten and Mrs. John Gerold.

All day long the class of 1925 maintained its headquarters at the Inn but nothing happened, although on several occasions they heard reports that the 1924 men were gathered in force to raid them, but despite the many rumors not a single second year man appeared until 7 o'clock.

At that time a committee of four entered the hotel and informed anxious freshmen that they could enjoy their banthen without fear of being molested. they received this news the freshmen made a rush for the dining 100m and in a few seconds every table was occupied.
