Ther 1 has been limited use of secret oper: tives, following of the frequently used Eu- ropean method. exclusive gangsters’ clubs have in- structed their house committees to watch new members, as Commissioner Whalen prefaced his action by a public announcement to the newspapers, giv- ing ample details of how the secret sources it would be mobilized.

They are the fledgling graduates of the department police school. In the light of New York police his- tory, the commissioner's action is a phase of law enforcement growing out of new conditions of police work, which exist in other large cities as well. With the breaking up of old criminal organi- sations and the development of new police have lost certaln “re- o arrangements which, turned up vastly more criminals than the sleuths. The police are now dependent wpon the “stool pigeon” system, which | is highly unsatisfactory, and it is doubt- less this situation which led Commis- sioner Whalen to set up his secret squad.
