EBERMAN AROUSES HIS AVTHENCE it is my reading of the charter that the board has no power to transfer arbitrarily a member of the Klre Department, but I believe It may do bo with his consent. I see no objec tion to the board reducing a nun's rank if he applies for such reduction voluntarily. The board may change a member of a com pany from one position to another of an equal rank or erade in the same company with or without obtaining his consent to the change. No power has been given the board to re duce a member In rank or grade for cause or after a trial. No ofiicer or employe of the de partment shall be transferred except for cau«e cr until after a trial before the commissioner* and the board cannot transfer a man simply because It deem» that the rood and welfare of the department will be Increased by «uch transfer. City Attorney Lane rendered an opinion yesterday in which he advises the Chief Engineer of the Fire Department that the Fire Commission has no power to reduca the rank or gTade of a member arbi trarily, or as a punishment, there being r.o such power conferred by the charter upon the Beard of Fire Commissioners. In response to several questions on th*» subject put by Chief Sullivan, Lane says- City Attorney Holds Commission Must Not Reduce Rank of Member Arbitrarily. #¦ MAKES FIREMEN MoRE SECURE IN POSITIONS For a tenacious, persistent Cougb.

We are Hebrews, If we think of the nomadic condition of our ancestors. We ar« Israelites, the righteous with Qod. as Ions «s we have our mission. We are Jews because that Is our family and tradition. Rev. Dr. Xieto delivered a sermon at Congregation Sherlth Israel, taking as hi? subject, "Charity as the Jew Taught It." He said the fact that there was no word for beggar In the Old Testament proved that at least in Bible times there was no need for what to-day is termed charity. Continuing he said: At the last national assembly the name "Union of American Hebrew Congrega tions" waa changed to "Union of Ameri can Jewish Congregations," and on this change the rabbi based his arguments. He treated his subject from the time of Abraham, the Hebrew founder of the Semitic people, to the tim» when the peo ple of Israel, which is a substitute for the word Hebrew, who lived north of the mountains of Judea, gradully disappeared, leaving Judah to be leader of the clans. The Hebrew derived his name, not from a family, but a condition, for he was a wanderer over the face of the earth. In conclusion Dr. Vooraanger said: Rev Dr. Voorsanger addressed his con gregation last night at Temple Emanu-El on the important questions, of which he said so many people seemed Ignorant.
