A Praetieal Poli

Captain of Police. Commi.ssioner"s Office

THE Chicago Police Depart· ment does not subscribe to

tl1e theory, heard faintly in some places, that v1ce m any form is a "'necessary evil." Chicago recog· m:e.s that prostitution is in itself a social menace, and in its com· meroahzed form is a breeder of cnmc and disease. That attitude 1.5 iundamental m the police de· ~ment':o policies dealing "':ith the problem of pro tttution in all 1ts characteristic<:. T here is no disposition to tolerate or compro· mise. From the medical. social and police viewpoint, vice-.,.,,·her· ever it may eXJst in Chicago-is definitely beyond the pale, out· side the law. The suppression of 1t is, in part, a police problem.

It is not possible to view the vice s1tuat1on in C h 1 c a g o as though it were a clear, sharply· etched picture. The items which would combine to make up :ouch a picture are not available because they do not exist. Thanks to the force of public opinion, to the co·operati• >n of the courts, to the activity and zeal of <:ocial agencies, and to practical police procedure, vice has been forced to retreat so far that only weak, underground remnants remain These can operate only sporad· ically, playing one•mght stands here and there. They arc given battle wherever they show and the police program is dispersing them at a rapid rate.

Chicago's vice problem is not an acute one, as has been indi· cated. It is well appreciated, how· ever, that even remnants of the evil are a potential menace to the community. They are the nucleus of organizations by which pros· titutJon is viciously exploited and expanded. Thus, even the minor symptoms of the vice evil deserve and are receiving the closest attention.

*Prom a talk, "A Practical Police Program for the Suppression of Vice," RJven at the Palmer H ouse on National Social Hygiene Day, February 5, 1941.

]4"uary·Pebru.ary, 1941

Current intere.;.t in the \•i.:e problem has been heightened by the public concern with national defense and the que~ion of pub· lie health , ... ·hich is closeh b0und up with defense a.:ti..-it) SpClk· ing to a police !:'.roup on this gen· era! topic, an army official re · .:ently remarked that commercial· i::ed vice is a Sixth Column. He meant, of course, that the health of ch·ilians engaged in def enc:e occupations and that of soldiers undergoing strenuous training i:: of special concern to the nation at such a time as this, and that com· murucable diseases, 1 n c 1 u d i n g syphilis, are a threat to the pro· gram in which these md1.,•iduals mmt play a part Syphilitic <:Ol· d1ers and defense workers lack physical health and consequently lack morale and efficiency. It fol· lows that pr 1stttution is an enemy to be dealt \..,·1th on the home front.

The present moment finds the pol.tee department ready and able to play its part m the broad, commuruty attack on the whole vice front This is so becauc:e a practical police program, maugu· rated by Commi!'Sioner Allman, is already m gear and operating effecti .. ·ely in the field It is what might be called a ten-point plan, nine of which features have to do with police pol..tcy The tenth, which is most important, m fact, i n d i s p e n s a b I e, in"·olves co· operation with active social agen· oes and co-ordination with other official agencies, including the 1udioary, the prosecutor and even the federal government.

Follow Up Policy

Considered separately, the prac· t1cal police program for the sup· pression of vice rests on a con· sistent, follow·up policy, support· mg and even augmenting the in· vestigative activity of the many police districts. It is not enough, experience has shown, to conduct raids, make arrests, initiate pro ·

cccdings Su~h actI\'ity IS merely prehmman. :i. tcp toward police end,; C.n cqucmlr. a policy of pushm~ the<:c procc ,cs to some definite condusion is now the order, and the Commi,-;:;ioner's Headquarters staff 1s carrying on the follow-up pro~ram. Needless to say, thi,, \"Ork not onl) follows up but ::i.nticipa.tes as well Check· ing and rechecking vice complaint •ources has the two fold effect of insunng their elimination and of pro..,·1dmg leads to new or un• known sources.

Tavern Investigations

Being potential clearinghouses of prostitution. taverns under the present police program are the ob· ject of close supen·ision and fr~· quent searching investigation. The ta'\"em which has become a depot for .,-ice traffic invites action from a direction in which it is highly vulnerable. Th1;; is the hcense pnv1lege. I t is only ncce,sary for the police to gather evidence of 'ice activity in order the hase the weapon where\'\ith to end it . T he commission of su ch offenses re· suits always in the revocation of the tavern license

Massage Parlor Investigations

License control gives the police the needed weapon with which to combat prost1tut1on and immor· ahty in massage parlors in much the same way as off ending taverns are dealt with . Efficient adminis· tration of the license act has done much m recent years in cleaning up the massage parlor "indu, try," a segment of which at one time was to be classed as a "sporting" rather than a therapeutic activity. Police c.,·idcnce of immorality i · sufficient in obtaining revocation of a massage parlor liceme.

S treet Observation One ,f : he m.iJ 1r methods b}·

which the police department wars on prostitution is that repre· sented in the assignment of de· tectives and policewomen, colored and white, to :.treet investigations in the racially corresponding dis· tricts of the city. Their work is co observe the activity of panderers and streetwalkers plying their trade on the fringe of bu~iness and amusement centers, u<;ually late at night. This type of police work is neither pleasant nor s1m· pie as it appears. Policemen, 111

fact, refer to it as the "unfortu· nate branch" and many would prefer a ha::ardous assignment to a tour of .such street duty-if assignment- were issued in that fashion. Ne\ erthclcss, this re· pressivc method is of the utmost importance to the police program, a.; the street pro:.titute offers one of the major vice pro b l c m s. Though they arc itinerant women. opcrat111g mdcpendently, trcet·

waJkcrs mu t be combated vigi· ldntl}·· Any relaxation of police me.1sures 1s sure to encourage them to bol<lncss and industry out of all proportion to their number.

The special menace of the streetwalker is the indiscriminate fashion m which she plies her tr.1de, with the result that !'he becomes a powerful agent for the transmi.;.;;ion of infections even though she may not be totally in· fccted herself. In this connec· t10n, there is no question but that the .tct1v1ty of street inve<>tigators 1s actually a contnbut1on to public health, preventing as 1t does the ~pread of viciou::: and dreaded dis· case. Public opinion has come to accept the view that sympathy. if .1ny. is to be accorded to the dis· e.1sed prostitute's victims and to the policeman who would like nothing better than to get away from it 1'1

Raad Rechecks It has beL l k .. me<l by experi·

cnce that vice raids in themselves do not con-;titute conclusive ac· t10n against the traffic. Under the preEen t police program, a raid is but the begmnmg of a series of actions with a number of police end.; in .... ·1cw, dcpcndmg upon the nature of the offense, the circum .. stances m which it 1s committed, the place, and the legal responsibility of individuals directly or m· directly involved. The course of future police action, if apparently warranted, is determined by rechecks on vice raids which may disclose whether the activity has been resumed, only driven underground, forced to move, or abated altogether. The one· t1mc practice of resuming oper.ttions about as soon as the patrol wagon leaves the door is no longer regarded as smart or safe by vice merchants. With the double·checking system, dctl:ctives revi:>it raided locations o\·cr a period of time. By this means it is often revealed to the police that cunning subterfuges arc being used to prevent dctcc• tion. As such places are already under suspicion by reason of hav· ing been raided, it is not difficult for inve~tigators, making a re• check, to d1\·ine any tricks being employed

Abatement N otices A powerful pohc;c weapon for

dealing with hou!;CS of prost!lu· tion or other 1mmor.1ht}' is the ah.1tcment process. Under this act, a property owner m:t}' be held Ha· hie in a court of equity if it can

be hown that his property usu· a'ly a hotel or roommgho~ • 15 bemg used for immoral purpo~ \Vhcn su..:h liab1ht}' is determmed police .ire given authonty by cou~ order to close and padlock the bmldmg for such time as the court may specify. The police de· partmcnt 1s using this proces~ \\1th mcrca mg eff ectivcnes~. Hotels and other estabJi.,,hments m which raids and arrests have been made for 1mmoraltty arc customanly warned agamst perm1ttin~ such activity on their prem1se3 or warned to get nd of such tenants or visitors guilty of the offenses. If trouble recurs. t L r• ce de· partment request<; th St t :'s At· torney to institute ah. tern 1t proceedings. It 1s worth menuomni? that with such cases the police department has been 100 per cent successful. It is quite apparent that the ah.itement process offers a powerful deterrent to the prop erty owner disposed to tolerate or conmve with vice clements. The police arc well aware of that and use 1t a.:cordmgl}'

Preparation of Cases This pract1c.tl polt1..e program

suggests by the vigor and thor· oughness of its approach to the vtcc·problem the police attitude tov.:ard the vice cases which lt

takes to court. It is now the c, tablishcd policy that such pro;e· cutions must be prepared v.ith care-bmlt up from the police angle within the proper le!:al fr.1mework and fully .$UpporteJ b, the e .... ·idcncc bearing upon them On~ indication of the succe;.s • th ~ intelligent, careful prcpara· tion of cases i;; the fact that our police arc getting more comic· tions; another is that it ha~ won the sympathy and r~pcct of the courts, which attitude, it may 1:-e !'aid, extends to the whole police program dealing with commcr· ciali::ed vice. This i:, of the ut· mo5t importance, a<; 1t constitutes the only basis on which the police and the court can co·opcrate in

dealing with a ~ocial and crime pn blcm of thi nature.

\V •' ha vc left for final consid· t>nt1. :1 the tenth point on which the whole poltcc plan is built. This touches upon the general community intcre:-t in the prob· lcm of commcrciali::c<l vice anJ the acti'l.'Jt}' of agencies of en· forccment, justice, prosccuuon and social service.

proper training and lack of proper precautionc:, and lack of foresight. It's up . to each one of you no'\v to sec to 1t that these gallant men didn't lay down their lh·es in vain.

How are you going to do this? It's easy-just keep on being the :,well policeman that you are and don ·t grumble because you ha,·e to keep in trim. Don't .. beef' because you ha,·e to go to the range for pistol or shot•gun practice once a week for most of the year.

Your superior officers ha\'e onl}· instituted these pracnccs so that your job will be that much safer.

This brings us to the point of gh;ng credit where credit 1s due regarding last year's perfect record. We don't presume to write with authonty, but we are going to try to set do'\\n our own im· prcssions In that way we hope to give you a word picture of what has been going on to make

the recnut must he at least seventy per cent proficient in all of these tmlics before he is "passed" and

allO\ved to become one of Chi· cago's finest. Then too the physi· cal requirements of the police ap· plicant are much stricter now than they were a few years ago. The I. Q. of the present,day police· man is much higher too, due, per· haps, to the fact that our educa· tional facilities arc of a higher calibre today. It's much easier for the young man of today to oht.tin an advanced educ;1tion. All this aids materially in making the 1941 poJiceman better able to cope with the dangers which b~et him when he &teps out to preserve law and order.

Chief of Detectives John L. Sul· livan follows the reasoning of Col. Crippen in setting forth his ide:\s as to why not a single policeman was k1llcd in the line of duty in Chicago during the last year. " The prcscnt,day policeman, be· cause of all this training, is much more alert than were his prede· ceo:sors," he pointed out ... He is better instructed m the handling of fire arms and therefore is less hesitant in drawing his gun when the occasion arises." H e added that the armed bandit in this way is immediately placed on the de· fcnsi\•e and so another police kill er's better judgment tells him not to pull his own gun. "This get• tmg the drop on the gunman, even though lt is JUSt a split c:ec· ond, has saved the lives of a num• her of policemen 10 the last few years," he sud.

\\7here do we go from here? Let's pay a visit to Fred J Schnell, d1re,·tor of radio tramm1 s1on for the Chicago police department.

He told us all about the new two way radio system that he has helped build up for the depart· mcnt. There 1s no doubt about thic:, too, being an important fac· tor in making yo\lr job a little bit more ~1fe.

··with this new two·way radio communication set•up a policeman in trouble can J.!Ct help in a big hurry," he said. "Suppose a squad 1s chasing a gan r uf ,tick·up men in a speedmg automobile. The gunmen arc 5hooting back at the pursuing 6CJUad. In addition to the clanger of bullets the men in the squad car are riskin~ a crackup during the breakneck chase. Two· way radio goes mto action and soon other squads arc closing in from all directions to put a Etop to further risks."

Two•way radio makes it muc.h easier too for your superior officers to issue instructions to the men fn the squads. In this way, from a centralized point, the policemen are given up·to·the·minute devel· opmcnts on any particular case, thereby putting them a jump ahead of the prospective police !tiller. Sp ·cc doesn't allow us to enumer· ate all of the advantages of two· way radio in today's policing of a ml tropolitan city.

Commissioner James P. Allman has contributed largely to making your job a safer one. Per~aps the most important one was his e.stab· Jishment of the Robbery Detail This detail, headed by the lawyer· policeman Lt. Kyran Phelan, 1< a highly specialized unit, manned by the best detectives in the depart· ment. These men don't have to worry about traffic congestion~. family quarreJs, or drunks. Their job ic; strictly to track down and arrest the major criminals.

An<l this unit has clicke<l! Last year alone this detail arrested and sent to penitentiaries more than fifty embryo police killers. Those are fifty more reasons why your job will be much safer this ym Lt. Phelan, because of his legal training, saw to it that the ca~ agamst these gunmen were au· tight before he took them to court The result was that they were all given long terms in the penal institutions so your jobs \l.111 be less hazardous for a long time to come.

But what about the sociological reasons for making your job S4fer1

First of all, Chicago hac; become more crimc•conscious in recent years. Chicago, especially during the prohibition era, gained the reputation of being the center and heart of crime and juvenile de· linquency. This sent innumerable student<: and profcc;sors of crim· inology to our city for study and rec;earch. And what was the re· suit of that? We teamed and benefited by their studies. IXveloping fo >m there, we increa.~ the activities of numerous civic bodice;

Perhaps "6653" (or 6656) wa a phone numhcr of a party named Hul!hes or Keegan-but no.

"Lot," "gra\•c;· "66~3"- the-.e cryptic symbol might dc-.1gnate a cemetery plot There arc 34 ccm· etencs m the Chicago area. Offi· ccrs thumbed through I 00.000 grave rec ·J 1thin a week.

Too Many Tv. <'nties

Amid th1 r~utmc drndgery of conco.::tmg theone , only to pro" e them false, Phillips was making his 5econd blunder. His pockets bulging with the hank's 20's, Phillips couldn't get rid of them fast enough. In his fa ... ·ontc hang· out, Don's Dorchc•ter Inn, 1416 E. 67th street, he would plank a crisp new hill on the bar to pay for a drink He would pocket che change, and out would pop another 20 to pay for his next drink Don Ferguson, owner of the tavern and a fnend of Phil· ltps, had no reason to que,tton the ~enumeness of the bills The wastrel had loaned the saloon· keeper forty fre h·madc 20':. with which to renew liquor licenses

In way mystcnous, yet need· mg no explanauon, Bill Dono'l.'an and Bob Murp~y of the C'..cntral Distnct heard about the ::quan· <lcrcr and his precs ,1t the Dor· chester Inn Putting 20\. and 20's together, they had something definitely nnm1s..:ent of the loot taken in tht: 5, uth Ch1cag Sa" mg Bank 100

M urphy and Donovan had never seen the prodig.tl Mr. Phil· lips, mind you. They had a ha~y description which "ecmed to para)· lei that gi\"en by Br·Jhag They had only their su pect's fir<.t name, George. They knew, t x , that a con<.tant companion of George ''a" a woman, Pearl Whttc. re·

Capt. Thoma<. Dutf y, to who~ Donovan and Murphy took their mformat1on, was spontaneously hearty with praise, whether the hunch was to pan out or not. The captam suggested th.it Bill a_nd Boh dovetail their findings with the efforts of the Robbery Detail. Officer Egan v.as recalled from th" tomb:>tonc a.;:;ignment to tic up with them.

What to Do?

\\'ould 1mmt.J.at" arrest of (,.e, r~e, and of Pearl \.Vh1te, if those pcrc;ons actually ex1cteJ and could be traced, be the best pro· cedure? They might be mno· cent p.utie&. If guilty, they might he 1ust small fry, and the com· mouon of their arrest would en· able the ringleader<. to cover up. Until something concrete linked the p:ur m the robbery. haste must h1. 1 oided.

At cnt1on focussed again on the t,1nt 1'1:.mg cipher. The numbers "6653"-could they represent .1

street address? If mysterious George was doing his spending m the saloon at 67th and Dor· chester, he might live at a 665' 3 house number in one of the streets near that tavern.

Donovan, Murphy. anJ E~an, •t.trting at St. ny l;;land a\enue, worked west. street by street. The}' c.invas~e<l addresses m a seven·block area, then called .1 halt, with the intention of re• ,,urning the search after .1 night's <.!ecp. In conference the follow· ing day, howe\'er, Lt. Phelan de· c1dcd to put the cipher ac:1de for the ume being, and to direct all effort.,, at locating Pearl \Vh1tc. There was to be no arrest no hint to the girl that sht> was under observation.

The powers of this committee are unlimited in reference to supervlSlng the prop er administration of the busines,, of the credit union, and providing for quarterly and penodical audit of our books of account.

As recommended by the Board of Directors and approved at the regular annual meeting held January 8th, 1941, new and modern bullet resisting fixtures are being installed in our recently enlarged quarters, this for the further pro· tcction of the properties of the credit union, the protection of our employes, and will greatly speed up the handling of payments around pay days.

The functions of all credit unions are to encourage the in· vestment of capital, for the pur pose of loaning same to members at consistently low rates which wlll not be burdensome to borrowers. A high percentage of our loans are classed as "character loans" wherein a borrower may obtain up to $100 on hlS signature only. Our credit uruon 1s per• m1tted to make loans up to S 1,000 Loans over S 100 and up to S 500 arc made on the signature of the borrower and one co-maker; co· maker may be the wife of the borrower, or if unmarried the s1g nature of a fellow police officer.

Dunng the past year we have recovered the amount of Sl,739.18 upon members' notes which were covered by Borrowers' Insurance Protection Six claims for deceased members were paid. Such reaw· cry represented balances ranging from S5 to S950, demonstrating the great value of this coverage which is m full force and effea upon all portions of loans which are due upon the death of mem· hers. while amounts credited to their share accounts immediately revert to their estates.

It is likely that he v.1111 head a new department of public safety embracing parole supervision and administration of prisons, and the State Bureau of Iclentification a~ well as the police system.

Climaxing the uncontrollable hazards, 'uch as the recent storm, in which they bra\'ed the elements and drove through the 65-mile gale to reach me and drive me to saiety when the velocity of the \\ind incrca cd, was the sudden failure of the lii:;htinc: ~}'· tcm, thro\\ill~ the entire di~trict into total darkne' for three weeks.

Then followed the Chicago Area Projects. Based on the theory that most criminals develop from juve• mle delinquency, this board set into motion the slum clearance project.

I t &et up definite recreational programs to take the youngster off the streets and away from the corner pool halls. · I t gave them a glimpse of the things that you had .ts a young ter. It tended to teach them £airplay and sportsmanship. A gunman who has been imbued as a ch1k.I with sport man!iihip and £airplay won't kill a policeman JUSt bcc·au"C he is going to be ar· rested. Church leader•. business men and citizens all over Chicago have co·operated one hundred per cent in these projects.

Captain Thomas J. Duffy, now of the fiN district, proved de· cisively what could be done along these lines when he e~tablished recreational club rooms in the Sheffield avenue police stat ion where he was then commander. One need only look at the juve• nile records of the district to become wholly convinced of its ef, f ectiveness. The kids in the Shef· field avenue district know that the "cops" arc their friends, their pals and someone to turn to, not run away from, when they're m trouble.

Those youngsters are not going to grow up to be police killers! In that district alone, because of Captain Duffy's admirable work, are close to 500 more reasons why your JOb is going to get safer and s;tfer Suff erin' catfish! as Orphan Annie would say, we're getting in deep. Pretty !'OOn we'll find that there i5n't a chance m the world of you getting hurt m the Chicago police department'

Let's get back to our subject. This 11oc1ological study jc; still go· ing on. Nathan B"oclm, with the aid of the W P A , is male.mg a ... urvey for the University of Chi· cago. From his headquarters m the Central Police building, he ici, making a tho rough study of the relationc;hip between type:; of crimes and types of local commu· nitiea in Chicago. In this study he is analyzing a quarter m1U1on different major crime,,. When he finish!!! his studies, it's a sure bet that your job will be even more s.1fe than it is now.

There it is--credit where credit

1 due! Now it's up to you to carry on-it's up to you to show Chicago that a · th~ has not been done 10 vain. All these safety me.uures have been created for you. Take advantage of every one of them. From twelve police· men k11Jed in the line of duty in 1933 to none in 1940 JS a long tep in the right direction and

we're sure that you are going to keep right on.

alone. that it docs not advance solely by its own effort. It is realized that the community "':ar on vice makes progress as police, judges, pro ecutor~. interested in· ve.stigator and social agencies join co-operatively in the com· man task. In acknowledgment of that principle, the police are coordinating their work with the demand and needs of the Municipal Courts, the state's attar· ney, the corporation counsel, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the existing social agencie~ interested in the prevention and elimination of conditions leadmg to immorality

It cannot be denied that prog· ress i11 bemg made. T he back of organized vice in Chicago has been broken. There no longer ex· ists any twilight :one or levee in which perversion and diseases are centrally marketeJ. I solated vice elements are the object of a police a ttack which is being pressed with every lawful weapon available To the police, the job is in many re-pects thankless, but m no sense

do they contend that it is hope less. The commissioner's program .stipulates that there will be no let up and that the fight with this breeder of crime and d1•ea!:e muc:t and will continue.

two fakes thanked the old lady heartily for her aid m their pro· posed revision of polling lists, and departed.

Getting H ot

George Ph1ll1ps was 111 this thing up to his ears. The ome had come to bring him in. But how do you go about arrcstrng a man you 'vc never seen, unless you take h is family or friends into

your confidence? Lt Phelan had the an~wer.

Bona fide pollm~ hi;ts revealed a Helen Phtlhp!., Kathleen Phil· hps, and Alfred Phillips registered from 6543 Kenwood avenue. If George lived there, too, he must be induced to put the finger on himself. Lt. Phelan ascertained that all the families living at 65 43 Kenwood received their calls over the same phone located in a hall of the building. Officers Dono· van and Egan, with fraudulent polling lists, were in that hall. conversing with a tenant, when the phone rang. Murphy was calling from a store nearby. The tenant excu~ed himself and picked up the receiver.

''I'll see if George Phillips i• at home."

H e disappeared for a moment, then was back at the phone.

"Mr Phillips is out." Had Phillipe; come to the phone.

Donovan and Egan would not have mole::.ted him What they wanted was a look at the man, so that they could bag him on the street, away from interested wit· nesses.

H ot on the trail, now, Lt. Phe· Ian counselled immediate action T ry the same telephone gag at George's favorite $a}oon, the Dor· chester Inn The officers lacked the number of the booth phone. M urphy walked into the tavern for the purpose of getting it. He hastily downed a beer, asked for a slug, and was entering the booth just as a man and woman got up from the bar and headed for the exit .

"Good night, George. Good mght, H elen," the bartender called after the retreating couple.

Clo ing In

Murphy was out of the phone booth in nothing flat. He, Egilll, and Donovan, Lt Phelan, Sgt. M cShanc, and Officer Devery were m the two cars which forced the unsuspecting Phillips pair to the curb. A few mmutcs later Egan, Donovan, and De\'cry h01d lured Pearl White from the Owl Cafe. Don Ferguson, the ta\'crn owner, v..as mduccd to come in, also

Sgt John Hanrahan, one ol that select group of masters at the art o f successful interrog-ation. introduced himself to Pearl and H elen Both denied any know!· edge of the bank robbery plot Hanrahan next tackled Phillips.

On the d~k oi Corporation Coun~el Gorman is the drait of a propo-ed la'' which "c "ill attempt to pa" at this .. ession of the Lcgi!>latun:. This propo-ed law ''ill rem-O\ c the pre,cnt liab1hty <Ji drhers for d:lmaged \chicles in ca~e of accident . It has the approval of our Commi-sioner \\ho considers the measure a m.-ccssary -.tcp toward the department'<. cfficienc).

The fire department has had this protection since 1931. It is only fair to policemen ''ho arc working under similar conditions, and ''ho arc just as cager to respond to alarms a, the firemen. to be gh en this same immunity. Such \\Cre the ,·ie\\5 expressed by 1.layor Kelly "hen he wa~ told of our intentions. It is regrettable that this law has not b en on the books in the past in view of the fact that the lack of it has caused considerable hardship and embarrassment to many of us.

Corporation Counsel Barnet l lodes has also promised his co-operation, as he is very much in fa, o r of the bill, which provides, "That in case of inj ury to person or property of another through the negligent operation of a motor vehicle by a member of a municipal police department while engaged in the performance of his duties and where there is no contributory negligence on the part of the injured person or the owner of such property or his agent or sen·ant, the municipality shall be liable for such in)ury, but in no case shall the member of the police department be so liable."

If this bill becomes la\\ the officers of your club feel that they will have added one more accompl ishment to the list of the many !>Ccurities that the club has a lready given the policemen of today.

The Legislative Committee of the club will undoubtedly be ready to go to Springfield when Senator \ Vard, whom the Mayor suggests be its author, introduces this bill.

CLUB PLANS LARGE CELEBRATION HONORING 25TH BIRTHDAY Elaborate Pro~rnm

pril 29 on

Our club was incorporated on ~lay 14, 1916, and this year we cclchratc the ZSth year of our existence. The original incorporators included Michael O'Connor, Alex Crandall, John J . Dowling, John L. Sullivan, John W . ~fcGloom, Roger ~icNamara, Alex Langford and William J . Steinke. To the fore ight and thoughtfulne<:s of these men we policemen of today owe a tribute we can never hope to repay. Their ccasele •, and ofttimes thanklc•<1, effo rts sometimes performed under threats of disciplinary action arc responsible for the fine, ound organization that \\C have today. \Ve honor them, and those of their number who have passed away we honor their memory in proud acknowledgment, par· tic-ularly this jubilee year, because they <uccccded where others failed, and theirs was a difficult struggle. Other police departments arc club·mindcd, and although the right to organize is inalienable, still they are forbidden by authorities and arc fighting to have their pitifully weak demands acknowledged. This is true of our Milwaukee police brethren.

Our organization, along with the Sergeants', Lieutenant!\' and Captains' Associations, is now functioning in a progressive manner, and alt combined we arc members of the Joint Council of Fire and Police Organizations. ~fuch progress has been made in thi• union, and that a favorable impression is created by our at;-;ociation hat; been demonstrated 5cvcral times already.

To the club's many benefactors during its twcntr-fivc long and !lometimcs lean year~ we owe a debt not comparable with our meager offer of gratitude. \V c therefore e.."tcnd to them and to all policcme.n an opportunity to be feted ''hen they will renew their acquaintances of the past at the Twcn. ty-fifth Annual Meeting of the club to be held on Tue-;dav, April 29, at the ~fidland Club, 172 West Adams Street. An elaborate proltl'am including speakers and entertainment will be arrangrd. and we expect an attendance of well over 1.000 guc~ts.

~fore details of this gathcrinit of friends will be tllld in the April ist;UC of the Police Direst.

One of our certain boys has a secret desire to some day own and wear $3.00 underwear. Ile has never owned such. but has heard of some people wearing them; and is going to find out why people wear such expensive undies.

'Tis rumored that the Old Batch Pat McNamara is seriously considering the leaving of the blessed single ranks and is thinking of taking unto himself a frau . Ile is getting near the 57 mark and wants to make sure that good me will be made of the pension money. Iler initials are "Rose."

Tom Dunne has returned to duty after a long siege in Hines H ospital. Tom said he has only a mall part of his stomach left but he feels fine neverthele~s.
