Dent, who is well known in Anacostia, pointed out that the gam- blers really had operated in an adjoin- ing community and not Anacostia. He raised the people of the section for Mr co-operation with the police. Commissioner Crosby also commend- ed the association and the community. Commenting on the statement of Capt. Holmes, the Commissioner said he felt that the police should concentrate on the major offenders and be less zealous in tagging overtime parkers or mo- torists who might travel a bit faster than the law allows.
