cannot be re placed without a hearing and the tiling of charges by the board of health If the town has accepted the civil service provisions a disputed fact Mr Norton would apparently be the in spector until removed and under the provisions of the state law his salary could not be reduced unless sufficient cause was shown to make it a neces sity The letter refers to certain sections of the state laws which cover the standing a civil service employe and outline his rights An investigation is being made of town' records to see if the town ever accepted the civil service provisions in
