I Bafli Tub Proportion Will Bo
Tackled by Public Safety
Board.
"If there waa a question of right
' or wrong in any matter and the whole
I board of fire commissioners were to
say to Chief Joynes that he must vote
against what he thought was right or
lose his position, knowing the man as
well as I do ha would say unhesitat
ingly, Til get down and out. gentle
men, before I'll do It.' '*
! Fire Commissioner W. A. Cheat
wood paid this compliment Tuesday
!to Fire Chief Joynes in commenting
I upon the published statement that 'the
Matter would likely be inclined to side
with the lire commissioner when the
board of public safety, of which Chief
Jaynes is a member, sits Tuesday night
to settle the war between Building in
spector Beck and Commissioner
Cheatwood resulting from the for
mers refusal to allow Mr. Cheatwood
; to construct two bathrooms in resi
dences at 2714 and 2716 East Broad
street.
Inference is Resented.
Commissioner Cheatwood strongly
resented the Inference that Chlel
Joynea. who is named by the tire
board, would allow' such a fact to In
fluence hia action In the bathroom
dispute In the slightest.
"Chief Joynes.’’ he stated further.
"Is the fairest, straightest man I ever
knew and if I thought he was such
a wishy-washy man as some people
see mto think he is I d vote against
i him for re-election regardless of his
I action in the matter under dispute."
Mr. Cheatwood then proceeded to
I take a heavy fall out of Inspector BewU
for declaring that the "lire commis
sioner must think he has unusual
rights merely because he is a mem
ber of the lire board "
Head Not Swelled.
"I am not such a man as to allow
: my head to become swelled as a re
sult of the honorary position which
' I hold." declined Mr. Cheatwood cei
, : phatieally, "but I must say that In
spector Beck has allowed his head to
! become so swelled that the depart
. ment which t«e direct* has become a
nuisance and uj imposition on the
public. 1 am not the tirst one whe
has run counter to his arbitrary rul
ings and others would doubtless at
’■ test what 1 say. '
Mr. Cheatwood went on to assert
that tn his opinion the buildings, it
whU*i it is proposed to construct
bathrooms, are perfectly sale. tie
agreed ,to submit the question to any
five contractors in Richmond and t
any one ot the five voted against hint
I he .would willingly yield without an
other w< rd.
Assistant Was Hricklajer.
"As a matter of fact," he declared,
my property was inspected by one ol
. Mr. Beck's assistants who has beev
I a bricklayer ail his lite and J know
I to my own personal know ledge tha
Inspector fSeek himself has not seer
j the buildings himself up to the Iasi
. twenty-tour hours.
Mr Cheat.» .od s iio was aroused by
t the fol'owing statement whion Mr
I Bock made to The Virginian Mon
i day: "The buildings are unsafe, no!
I tit for improvement. Mr. Cheatwood
must think he has unusual right mere
. lv because he is a fire eonimir.sioner
1 His position doesn't count with thi>
