Goodwin Defends Civil Service Firemen From Croker Criticism
Elliot H. Goodwin secretary of the Civil Service Reform Association replies to Chief Croker condemning the Fire Department. He argues that two Civil Service appointees proved competent, disputes the claim most firefighters are weak, and defends the testing system noting medical and physical exams reject the majority while the mental test prunes few. He urges revisions of intelligence testing and notes all senior officers rise from lower ranks.
