Page 16 500 ROOKIES BEGIN POLICE CLASS JULY 1 A class of 500 police rookies will begin 14 weeks of training July 1, Police Commissioner O'Connor announced yesterday. Their addition to the force will clear the way for a reduction next fall in the police work week from five and a half to five days'. O'Connor asked the city civil service commission to certify 500 men from the new patrolman eligible list posted June 6 by the commission. Miss Dolores L. Sheehan, commission president, said final physical examinations will be conducted for five days, starting June 24.

The classes will be conducted in Hay Elementary school, 1018 N. Laramie because the police training school at the Brighton Park- station is inadequate for a class so large. PUNCHED CARD VOTERS' LISTS Cblcaao Tribune Press Serric) bpnngfield, 111., June 13 Cook County Judge Otto Ker- ners plan for re-registral of voters was killed in the house of representatives today when Chicago Democrats re fused to support it. The vote was 62 to 28, with 89 needed for passage. It was brought out during debate that the Kerner plan to transfer registrations to business machine cards would end the use of change of ad dress cards by precinct cap tains.

The change of address cards provide a simple means of revising voting lists. Called Answer to Frauds Judge Kerner, a Democrat, testified May 23 that re-regis tration of Cook county voters would save money, increase efficiency, and reduce frauds. The bill was introduced by Rep. William E. Pollack unicagoj, cnairman ot a spe cial election laws commission The Kerner plan was to have every voter in Cook county sign a new registration form on a business machine card.

Registration cards can be signed only in a public of fice with jurisdiction over elections. The change of ad dress cards can be signed any where and brought in by precinct captains. Defeat Later Primary It was a bad day for election bills, and Gov. Stratton's pro posal to shift the primary elec tion to the second Tuesday of May, a month later than at present, was killed, 50 to 76. Majority Leader John W.

Lewis Jr. R- Marshall told the house that the April to November interval between the primary and the election in Illinois is longer than in any other state. He was opposed by men from both parties who said that farmers are too busy to vote later in the spring andf that primaries should not be held after tax bills are being-, distributed. Curfew Bill Passed Also killed, 81 to 30, was a Pollack bill to clarify the law on contesting of Chicago alder-manic elections. Without debate, the house passed, 150 to 2, a bill by Rep.

George L. Saal Pekin to permit counties to establish curfews for persons under 17. Rep. Maurino R. Richton Chicago Heights won 91 to 40 approval of his bill to require election of trustees of the Bloom township sanitary district.

They now are appointed by the county judge. VOTE TO INDICT DRIVER, 75, FOR TWO FATALITIES A grand jury yesterday reportedly voted two true bills, both charging reckless homicide, against Dr. Maurice V. H. Puckey, 75, of 3535 Reta av.

His car ran down and killed two young women May 21 in an accident at Lawrence and Kedzie avs. The women were Mrs. Lillian Stein, 22, of 4151 N. Sacramento who tossed her infant son to safety before she was run down, and Mrs. Erma Szeinert, 19, of 4923 N.

Albany an expectant mother. When she died doctors were unsuccessful in trying to save the unborn child. Dr. Puckey's bond on each charge was set at $2,500. a SENATE TIE-UP THREATENED BY FILIBUSTER Democrats Fail to Get More School Money BY GEORGE TAGGE nlrasn Tribune PrtM Scriiccl Springfield, 111., June 13 Democratic minority senators late today started a filibuster which threatens to tie up work of the final two weeks cd" the 1957 legislative session.

The G. O. P. majority therefore adjourned the senate until 2 p. m.

Monday. Democrats went into a party caucus after failing to add 11 million dollars to Gov. Strat-ton's 25 million dollar increase in the state aid fund for public elementary and high schools. Mayor "Daley's legislative spokesman, Sen. William J.

Lynch Chicago told newsmen he is determined to continue the filibuster until Re publicans accept the 11 million dollar boost. Charges Dems Make Hay Democrats are making political hay out of education," Sen. Lottie Holman O'Neill fR. Downers Grove told the senate. "Republicans are falling into the hole being dug for them." The Democratic amendment was beaten 23 to 17.

Three G. O. P. members joined the Democrats Robert Canfield of Rockford, John J. Donovan of Chicago, and Herschel S.

Green of West York. "As Democrats, let's put the burden where it belongs on the Republicans," said Sen. William J. Connors Chicago. Reviews Commission Work Sen.

David Davis Bloom-lngton reviewed work of the school problems commission on state aid. He explained how the commission concluded with a request for 233 million dollars. He said he believes this is "the absolute minimum" but that he also believes Gov. Stratton's pledge that if 227 million dollars is insufficient, the legislature can make a deficiency appropriation in March, 1959. After losing today's battle, Democrats demanded that bills be read in full, that roll calls be taken on every routine motion, and other time consuming procedures.

Lt. Gov. John William Chapman, presiding officer, told The Tribune that if the filibuster continues he will rule that bills be read in full if this is requested. The state constitution requires bills to be read "at large" and there has not been any clear cut court ruling on the meaning of this. Normally bills are read by title only.

COPTER PORTS TO BE ON ROOFS, PILOT PREDICTS Future heliports in the midst of the city will be high above the streets, on landing mats placed on rooftops, Capt. Joe Mashman, chief engineering pilot for Bell Helicopter corporation, predicted here yesterday. Mashman said rooftop landings are "often safer than those at ground level." Ke said cities must recognize the special safety and hovering performance capabilities of helicopters, and not impose unreasonably restrictive regulations on their use as aerial taxicabs.

The Associated Presa entitled exclusively 'to the use for republication of all he local nt printed In this newspaper, as (il til AP sews (X'hicago Tribune Vresn Service Springfield, 111., June 13 A bill to reorganize the Chicago health department was approved, 9 to 5, by the house municipalities committee today. Rep. Paul Randolph Chicago, chief sponsor, said he would seek passage of the bill before the legislature adjourns.

June 29. Democratic minority members of the committee professed not to be worried about that prospect. The Chicago council killed a similar proposal last week. James R. Gersonde, executive director of the Chicago Hospital council, told the committee it is highly desirable and necessary to separate the offices of president of the board of health and chief city health officer.

Both are now held by Dr. Herman N. Bunde-sen. Proposes 7 Member Board Randolph's bill would have a seven member board of health elect its own president. Duties would be restricted to policy making.

Professional qualifications would be required of the health officer in charge of administration. Gersonde was the only witness for the bill, which is also supported by the Chicago Association of Commerce and Chicago Medical society. Stratton administration spokesmen meanwhile were GOV. STRATTON SIGNS 2 COOK COUNTY BILLS Chicago Trihun Press SerTlcel Springfield, 111., June 13 Gov. Stratton today signed two bills designed to get new buildings on Cook county tax rolls without delay.

Proposed by Assessor Frank Keenan, they would require that the county and township assessors be notified within 15 days of all building permits issued by county and municipal authorities. The bills were introduced by Sen. John Donovan Chicago. Other bills signed by the governor included: Rep. William E.

Sen. George E. Drach Springfield state road funds, the 'bill will permit hiring others to be paid with toll road revenue. The toll road commission is expected to employ and equip from 75 to 150 police for its network. We Atj: Short of Money Sen.

Lottie Holmann O'Neill Downers Grove offered the amendment to hold the increase down to 200. We are short of money for many purposes, including schools and welfare institutions," she said. "As long as it would require 18 months to train and integrate 500 more policemen, it would be wiser to go slowly." George E. Drach Springfield, assistant majority leader, said there is a "tremendous shortage of state police. In many instances a state policeman is the officer on traffic duty in an entire county, he said.

For each 1,000 miles of highway, Blinois has pnly 46 state police compared with 156 for California, 120 for Pennsylvania, and 109 for New York, Drach said. Sen. Robert McClory Lake Bluff said it would be foolish not to provide enforcement for the "excellent" speed limit law just enacted. Mayor Daley's spokesman, Senate Minority Leader William J. Lynch Chicago, recalled that Gov.

Stratton and G. ,0. P. legislators in 1955 made.it possible for Chicago to add 1,600 additional policemen. Lauds Chicago Record Chicago has made a fine record in accident reduction," Lynch said.

George is suffering from coronary atherosclerosis, or hardening of the coronary artery which nourishes the heart." quires that a woman be superintendent.

"It's ridiculous to contend that we can't find a woman competent to run this institution," Sen. O'Neill said. "I've had many complaints about this bill from women's organizations." Far short of a passing vote on roll call, the bill was kept alive for a possible try next week. ROBBED IV FRONT OF HOMF A robber threatened Jesse Martin, S.

Approve Higher Subsidy An MTS supported bill, on final passage stage in the senate, would raise the pegged levy to 6.5 millions. Majority Whip George E. Drach Springfield was waiting for an opportunity to offer an amendment to raise the fig ure to 9 millions. The house appropriations committee approved a bill raising the state's subsidy fund for tuberculosis sanitaria from' 3.8 to 6 millions during the next two years.

Most of the money would go to the MTS. The house voted 125 to 13 to send to the senate a bill by Minority Leader Joseph L. De La Cour Chicago appropriating 1.9 million dollars for a deficiency in the tuberculosis subsidy fund. It was strongly opposed by Majority Leader John W. Lewis Jr.
