Foes to Get Chance Also. In a session this morning the House District committee heard proponents of the bill introduced by Representa- tive Gibson, Republican, of Vermont for establishment of a woman's bu- reau in the Police Department. Announcement wis 1 that an- other hearing will be set at an early date for those opposed to this legisla- fon, as 4 number o i the hearings had nof mittee, of which Repres-ntative Rath- bone, Republican, of Ilinois is chair- man, that they w an opportunity to present their A spect ng has been set for Saturd 10 o'clock for Judge Katherine Sellers of the Juve- nile Court in order that the hearing may not interfere with the court cal- end: Judge Sel was_present at the hearing tod: 4 said she would zladly submit a statement in writing of her objections to this measure. Bill Ts Defended. Mrs Jerome O. Berliner, represent- ing M tna Van Winkle, lieutenant in charge of the present policewomen’s bureau, told the subcommittee that the bureau as now organized is handi capped by lack of sufficient force. Questioned Representative Ham mer, Democrat, of North Carolina to the duties of the policewomen a whether they arrests or about as good Sa 5, Mrs, liner said that they Repeatedly during the hearing, Mr. Hammer stated plainly that the only reason he is oppo: a police woman's bureau is the attitude, as he sees it, of Mrs. Van Winkle, and said that he intends to question her further before the hearings ure closed. Mrs. Virginia White Speel, president sf the District Federation of Women'’s Republican Clubs, was questioned at length by Representative Rathbone. She said that women in other States desire the law passed here as Soon possible to set a_precedent and exam- ple for other parts of the country. #ald that New York is now waitin: see what Congress passes in the way of a law for the National Capital. With a population of 500000 in Washington, 30 policewomen are not at all sufficient, Mrs. Speel said. Says Bureau Needs 100. Questioned by Mr. Hammer, she ad- mitted that the desire is to put police- women on an equal footing with man policemen, and that they should be trained and drilled and instructed in law the same as the men. In a gen eral way, she said, welfare work is a functfon of policewomen in the Dis- trict of Columbia. Miss Rhoda Milliken, a_sergeant in the women’s bureau, said t the pending measure would legalize the bureau and enlarge the staff, both of which are exceedingly necessar: Specialized duty, she explained, cuts down the fleld staff. They are al lowed 23 policewomen now and have 21. They should have at least 100, she explained, pointing out that it is not advisable for one woman to work alone at night in certain parts of the town and on certain assignments. In reply to questions, Miss Mill- ken estimated that at the present time the field could be covered fairl well with 60 policewomen, but ths the full quota of 94 authorized in the bill should be allowed to carry on the work adequately. 625 Arrests Made. Questioned by Represents ton, Democrat, of Texas, the t ardent workers for wion s bureau, it was oped that the conditions in the e of Detention ara very satis factory and that efficiency marks the administration of Mrs. Van Winkle It was emphasized by Mr. Blanton that there are 13 police stations now in operation and another one to be opened, and that there are no women at any of these stations, so t women who are taken into custc are without matron service, wh she said, is ahoslutely essential.

Miss Milliken denied the truth of these reports. Representative Gilbert, Democra of Kentucky, said that without com- mitting himself as to numbers, he feit that there was a field for the work being done by the policewomen,” and especially mentioned that women on the street are not secure from afironts. e happened to mention drugstore “cowboys,” and Mr. Blan- ton rose in defense of cowboys as the most chivalrous cluss of men in the protection of women and said they should not be mentioned in the same breath with drug store clerk Mr. Blanton moved for a favorable report, but action was stopped when Mr. Hammer stated that while he was not against the bill he thought the hearings should be continued, as a number of persons desire to be Yheard in opposition. Mr. Gibson, author of the bill, paid a tribute to the value of Judge Gil- bert's advice, based on his wide ex- perience as a judge. Mr. Gibson emphasized that this legislation would put the Woman’s Bureau on a permanent. basis and on the same basis with the Traffic Bu- reau, the Detective Bureau and other co-ordinated bureaus in the Police De- partment. Ile asked Miss Milliken if the present force was sufficient for the protection of women on the streets, as had been mentioned by Mr. Gil- bert, and whether the force was suffi- cient to allow proper censoring of public entertalnments. He was told that with the present force the bureau was doing the best it could, but that the force was not sufficient to properly carry on these various duties. the rested violations, ant language.

The principle was lald down today by Controller Ganeral McCarl in a decision criticizing methods used by federal prohibition officals in Minneapolls. The items in question were two freight bills, one for $94.95, covering freight charges of 103 cartons of medicine, and the other for $4.12 covering freight charges on a barrel of medicine. In his decision the Controller General allowed the claims but pointed out that such agreements were questionable and that no bills similar to this, contracted after March 1, would be allowed. MRS.
