A Mina Van Winkle, head of the woman bureau as now consti- tuted and ardent advocate of the leg- islation making the existence of the organization legal, was not present, but Miss Helen D. Pigeon, director of the International Association of Po- licewomen and Sergt. Rhodda Milli- ken of the bureau spoke in favor of its enactment. Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter, president of the Distric of Columbia Congress, Parent-Teacher Associations, denounc- ed the McLeod bill as “vicious.” said she “can’t understand that such a thing should be perpetratd against the District of Columbia.” Discuss McLeod Bill. Mrs. Rafter explained to the meet- ing, which was attended by about 50 persons, that Representative McLeod of Michigan, author of the bill, ap- pointed a committee of 16 to inves- tigate all Juvenile Court bills pending in Congress This committee, of which she was a _member, never held a meeting, and, she declared, William H. De Lacey, former Juvenile Court judge, personally canvassed the members at their homes and sought their approval of the McLeod plan. Mrs. Rafter said she refused to sign the petition in support of the meas- ure. She and her organization are in fayor of the Commissioners’ bill, she cohtinued, and, if it had been present- d to Congress last March, when there was opportunity to do so, “then it would have been passed, and we would have had at least a part-way Juvenile Court bill.” She added the Commis- sioners’ bill was withdrawn last March for amendments, and since that time there had been much delay in the District Building in getting the meas- ure.buck to Congress. Mrs, James W. Byler, also of the Parent-Teacher Association, in regis- tering opposition to the McLeod bill, declared the Juvenile Court created under it, would be surrounded by all the proceedings of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. ' Rotat- ing judges would ocupy the bench, she explained, and this feature alone is objectionavle, as only a person specially trained and experienced in children’s work is qualified to sit on the bench. Mrs. DuBois Speaks. Mrs, Frederick DuBois also spoke briefly against the McLeod bill. ‘The Women's Bureau measure was endorsed by Mrs. James Willey, State regent of the District of Columbia Daughters of the American Revolu- tlon; Mrs. Rafter, Mrs, Lucy R.

Van Wnil_e_ Director in | Metropolitan Police Department, | | | | Tells The meaning of the bil)s to es- blish a Woman's Dureau of the | Metropolitan Police Department, now Iying in active in the House and Sen- atewas yesterday defined by Lieut.

Star as follows Reveals Drama of Life. “The work of the Woman's Bureau | is analogous to the motion picture constantly passing across the screen without intermission or stoppage. The pictures are of the skeleton closets of @ big crosssection of the | People and their communities, largely | respectable although sometimes there | are dips down into the slums and the { underworld. Taken piece by plece, | step by step, case by case, they re- veal drama more moving than any in fetion or on the stage—the drama of Life, “When guests i we delight in |showing them our house- the cozy living room, comfortable bedrooms, in- viting kitchen and all the composite parts that go to make this house our home. But usually there is one door which is kept locked—the door to our skeleton closet—and we hurry by, for | the less we think of that the easier is our state of mind. Point to Scouts and “Y.” “So with our community Sservices, the health and Boy Scout movements, the Girl Scouts, the Y. W. C. A., the Y. M. C. A. and such other incalcula- bly worthwhile movements are the liv- ing room activities to which we point with pride, and justly so, and we glad- 1y lend our efforts and money to their furtherance. But what of the ghosts of the skeleton closet? They are of many forms, the cheap, nasty theater, the unsupervised dance hall, the un- married mother, the runaway boy, the foolish -shoplifter, the child of the streets, the distracted mother unable to contrdl her daughter, and a thou- sand other specters of sordid unhappy problems which, if properly and promptly adjusted, could come from the uneasy closet into the sun of the living room. “In Washington, the Woman's Bu- reau of the Metropolitan Police De- partment is the keeper of these skele- ton closet secrets, and many times the means of their solution. During near- Iy nine years' service rendered 24 hours a day and seven days a week, this bureau has cared for approxi- mately 20,000 individuals, two-thirds of them children, without ever releas- ing a news story about any of them that would in any way publish their shame or delinquency. Tt is to make permanent and increasingly effective the service of policewomen that the bill for the establishment of the Wom- an’s Bureau is presented in Congress. Local Clubwomen Working. “Groups of local clubwomen have petitioned and obtained the assistance of national organizations of women for the passage of this bill. The meas- ure, which is now pending in the Sen- ate.and House, will establish by law the Woman's Bureau of the Metro- politan Police Department, now exist- ing only on sufferance—having no legal status. Leaders from the execu- tive board of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, who recently met here in executive session, went per- sonally to Senators and Representa- tives to secure their support for this legislation. “Such influential groups as the Na- tional Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Women's Chris- tian Temperance Union, General Fed- eration of Women's Clubs, American Social Hygiene Assoclation, Natlonal Council of Women and many others have given definite indorsement of the bill as written and as to principle, desiring not only to safeguard the District work, but also to see enacted into law a measure which may be used as a basis for similar legislation else- where, “The bill was favorably reported by the District committee of the House and placed on its calendar. A hearing was held by the Senate District com- mittee at the call of Senator Capper. Senator Willlam H. King of Utah, who requested the committee to re- frain from voting until he could be present, was present at this meeting, | to which Senator Capper invited rep- resentatives from the General Federa- tion of Women'’s Clubs. These women { The | of Work. expressed unanimous and hearty sup- port of the measure, and, together with all the friends of the bill, urged its speedy passage as it {8 now amend ed by the Senate District committee. Insurance Against Trouble. “The passage of the policewoman's bill will glve the community assurance that the Woman's Bureau, which has proven of service to women and chil- dren who come into the custody of the police, will not be destroyed, or its a | tivitles hampered at some future tim {at the will of unsympathetic or unin- formeg officials. “The fruming of the policewoman's Dbill was originally the result of advico from the late Chie¢ of Police Daniel Sullivan and his successor, Chief KEd- win B. Hesse, who knew the dangers and urged the necessity of such a measure. “Under the bill there would be a change in a condition of affairs where the director of the Woman'’s Bureau is rated along with privates from the ranks detailed to the Detective Bureau. { Today these men receive the same sal- ary as the director of the Woman's Bureau, who is responsible for her staff of 28 policewomen, for the House of Detention's civilian staff of 22 per- sons and for the pollcemen detailed | to the House of Detention for duty. Furthermore, it is obviously unjust to impose the responsibilities of super- vision on privates who are allowed no additional compensation for the extra dutles thus involved. But such is the status of affairs in the Woman's Bureau. Congress has been appealed to as the only recourse for this unfair discrimination. Blanton Father of Bill. “In 1924 the policewomen intro- duced as amendment to the lice salary bill, a rider which was looked upon favorably by Representative Blanton of Texas, father of the salary bill. The policewomen, however, with- drew this amendment on the ground that, if the salary bill was lost, the men of the department, in their dis- tress, might hold the women respon- sible. It was not until the year after the -salary bill passed that the first Woman's Bureau bill was introduced in the Senate by Senator Smoot and in the House by Representative Blan- ton. This bill was voted favorably in both District committees of Congress and was on the consent calendars. However, although a canvass of the House indicated an overwhelmingly favorable vote, Representative Hill of Maryland. &s the sole objector, held it up. This was the end of the session and Congress adjourned without tak- ing further action. “‘Undaunted by this discouragement, friends of the bill did not cease their efforts. At the next session of Con gress, in December, 1925, they prompt- y re-introduced the measure with a few changes suggested by local judges and lawyers. Senator Arthur Capper in- troduced it in the Senate and Repre- sentative Ernest R. Gibson of Ver- mont in the House. The biil itself was written by the Senate legislative counsel, lawyers who draft most of the Senate bills in order- to facilitate the work of.the Senators, and who act as legal advisers. They were given the manual of the Metropolitan Police Department, the District regulations, the District Code and other documents which would enable them to formulate the principles of law that would make possible the functioning of the Woman’ Bureau, both within the Po- lice Department and the community, thout conflict of function or au- thority. Functions in Manual. “The minimum standards in the bill for the admission of women to police service are those already of record with the United States Civil Service Commission, and the func- tions prescribed for the policewomen are those set forth in the police man- ual. These standards and functions were adopted in 1922 by the police chiefs at thelr San Francisco con- ference as the minimum below which REAL ESTATE LOANS MADE AND SOLD J. LEO KoLB 923 NEW YORK AV.

O, JANUARY 30, 1927—PART 1. the service should never fall. The present chief of the Police . Depart- ment has bad a large part In estab- lishing these standards and functions. He is as proud of them is the Woman's Bureau and those organiza- tions of women which have consistent- ly supported the bureau from its early beginning. “A glance'at the yearly report of the Woman's Bureau will give some idea of the scope of its work in the District of Cotumbla. . Policewomen now functioning under handicaps cover detalls ut the rallroad station, department stores, convenlence sta- tlons, dance nalls, cabarets, cafes, parks, market places, motion picture houses, theaters and other places. Last yeaP, 9,070 such inspections were made, In addition to this, police- women dealt with hundreds of cases involving women and children, neces- sitating 3,478 visits and 3,530 inter- views. Eight hundred and ninety seven original complaints were ré- celved at the Woman's Bureau from citizens of the District of Columbia— others were referred to it by the police and outside agencles. The Woman's Bureau is not primarily for the purpose or arrest, but to prevent the necessity of arrest, and many of the cases are adjusted before court action becomes essential. An Interest- ing and extremely valuable feature of the work is the Bureau of Missing Persons, One thousand two hundred and forty-three missing people were reported to the bureau in 1925—173 of whom were returned to homes in 66 citles in 17 different States. ‘Workiiig 14 Hours a Day. When nfked to define the functions of the Woman's Bureau, Mrs. Van Winkle said: “First, let me pay a just tribute to the policewomen wk. form them and to the general e lence of the staff limited to 23 police- women, which must be divided into three shifts of eight hours each with the most dutiful of women overlapping into two shifts and working 14 hours a gay because of the heavy demand Lor service. Generally speaking, they are the finest type of young American womanhood. My immediate subordi- nate is a graduate of Columbia Uni- versity, and many of the leading State" universities and colleges have con- tributed graduates to our staff. The functions of these women are pre- scribed in the police manual.” “The bill adds no new powers to the Woman's Bureau,” continued Mrs. Van Winkle. The powers which belong to the policewomen are those which are inherent in the police power itself and will exist whether or not the bill is enacted. The bill, in specifying that policewomen, and not policemen, shall look after women and children who are in the custody of the police, simply makes fmpossible controversial issues within the Police Department. It should be borne in mind that these are the women and children who come into custody of the police in the official legal manner—if ‘otherwise arrested, the officers, as any civilian, are liable to civil suit for violation of the con- stitutional rights. Notwithstanding the flood of deliberate and vicious slanders circulated against the Wom- an’s Bureau and. its individual mem- bers by persons suffering, perhaps, from fear complexes, bad consclences and other inhibitions, it is not the policy of the Woman's Bureau to dele- gate powers unto itself. “In the bill we are asking for cler- ical staff to function day and night, 8o that we may keep our records up to date and ready for headquarters and the courts each morning. Rank Equal With Men. “The bill, if passed, will establish by law the Woman’s Bureau; it will give rank and pay equal with the men; will fix as a permanent mini- mum the present civil service require ments for admjssion to this service; make promotiong contingent on proof that special training, experience and attention to duty equips for the posi- tion sought; it provides that Folle& women, and not policemen, shall deal with ‘'women and children after. tl Z0DEAD IN STORM - SWEEPING BRITAIN Winter Lightning in London Contrasts With Blizzard in Northern Sections. By the Associated Pross. LONDON, January 20.—The death toll of the great rain and wind storm which swept Great Britaln from the south of England to the northern tip of Scotland yesterday and today, to- night had reached 20, with fully 300 injured by flying debris. Nineteen of the deaths were in Scot- land alone, while one was in Armagh. Ireland, the latter being killed by a falling roof. In the course of the day further damage was reported, while dispatches from more remote towns showed the great extent of the storm area. Winter Thunderstorm. Early this morning, London was visited by a Winter thunderstorm of unprecedented severity, during which hundreds of wireless aerials, ' trees, fences and chimney pots were hurled through the air. Several persons were Injured by falling shop signs and pleces of masonry. b On the Uxbridge road, a shopful of modishly dressed wax dummies was hurtled about the roadway. About 150 long distance telephone lines in England and seven of the 18 Paris lines are disabled. Although a torrential rain fell in London, Scotland and Northern Eng- land, had a regular blizzard which added to the difficulties of clearing up the debris scattered during the storm the Oxford and Cambridge boat crews braved the weather for practice on' the Thames, but found the going exceedingly hard. Pessimistic Forecasts. The worst of the storm had abated today, but it still continued gusty and officlal weather forecasts held out the discouraging prospect of an- other depression from the Atlantic which would bring more storms, Heavy seas battered ehipping all along the British coast line. The sailing of the Cunarder Aurania for New York and the White Star Cera- mic for Australla were held up for many hours, as they were unable to embark their passengers. But the alr services to the continent con- tinued, although the pilots were re- ported“to be storm tossed. In Western England numerous rivers are overflowing. —eeeeeee come into the custody of the pofice, but in no way curtails the responsi- bility of the policemen to take action in the community whenever neces- sary; it provides for an increase of staff to enable members now working 14 hours to function on an 8-hour basis; provides additional compensa- tion and rank for the extra dutles imposed upon the women now serving as supervisors; makes possible, by in- crease of staff, the maintenance of patrols in city districts to cover stores, dance halls, cabarets and public rec- reation generally and the hazardous places in the community where young people are likely to gather and where the need for the policewomen as pro- tection is particularly essential. Fur- ther, the bill provides that the bureau and the director of the bureau shall ‘e directly responsible to the chief of police, that the women shall have all the rights, powers/ benefits, privi- leges and immunities now po: or which may hereafter be possessed by other officers and members of the police force. S DIVIDED-PAYMENT ACCOUNT PRIVILEGES AVAILABLE TREASURY PLEADS FOR DRY ACT SPIES IN SENATE MESSAGE (Continued from First Page.) they are, therefore, able to get skilled asslstants, both legal and chemical, and to practice corruption of public | officlals where corruptible officials can be found. They employ criminals, who often do not hesitate at murder to assure the success of their opera. tions. War With Criminals, “The advance of civilization means constant warfare between well ordered woclety and the lawless elements. When soclety is aroused, aggressive and well organized, the criminal class is driven to cover and becomes more or less innocuous; when public opin- fon is Indifferent, tho suppression of the criminal clisses becomes inef- tective until the law-ablding classes are aroused to the danger threatening their social order and the laws are again enforced. “This is a fair plcture of the con- ditions today facing the executive de- partment charged with the enforce- ment of the prohibition laws. Con- spiracies are Nation-wide in extent, | in great numbers organized, weli financed and cleverly conducted. No parallel of this situation exists in normal times. It is similar, rather, to war. Our efforts must be Nation- wide and as thoroughly organized. “We are in particular need of a highly developed department of intel- ligence to keep the forces of soclety informed as to the personnel and methods used by the lawbreakers. We cannot defeat a force as to whose numbers, organization and methods we are in the dark. Secret service work is as necessary to the successful enforcement of these laws as it is for the enforcement of the laws against counterfeiting or similar crimes. Even more important is the existence of a public opinion which will sustain the morale of the Govern- ment agents. Against Tllegal Methods. “It is neither necessary nor de- sirable that these agents engage in any illegal practices or entice others to do so, but it is necessary that agents be employed who are qualified and do act as sples with the oppos- ing forces. No one likes the ideo, but it is as essential here as it is In war in order to gain necessary intelligence. Secret-service methods and under- cover men are absolutely necessary if the prohibition law is to be en- forced. This is a fact which the pub- lic and their representatives’ must face, “The alternative is lax and inef- fective enforcement of the law. A limited number of Government em- ployes, every one of them known to the criminal element, operating in broad daylight and in the view of all, cannot hope to defeat unknown, in- telligent and unscrupulous men, not only highly organized, but constantly developing new channels and methods and whose operation are necessarily enshrouded in darkness. ““Without meaning to justify the in- dividual cases reported where agents have resorted to questionable methods in order to obtain the organization secrets and the methods of operation of bootleggers, it should beé frankly stated that without the employment of undercover methods and the willing- ness of Government servants to be- come {dentified with the law violators in order to unearth their secrets, pro- hibition enforcement will be handi. capped almost to the point of fallure.
