Brown, superin- tendent of police, has issued a warning to the public against the types of crim- inals who take advantage of large crowds and empty homes to ply their various rackets. He made 12 suggestions as a means to curb activities of pickpockets, rob- bers and various types of swindlers and confidence men “who specialize and operate wherever persons congre= gate, such as department stores, ele- vators, street car loading platforms, busy street crossing, bus stops and other congested places.” Co-operation Requested. “The Police Department is putting forth every effort” Brown said, “in utilizing its entire personnel looking to your safety and protection during the holiday season and your co-opera- tion is earnestly. requested.” His suggestions follow: ‘Women carrying pocketbooks should hold them securely in their left hand, with the hand aver the opening, thus preventing any one from removing the contents. Be particularly alert for persons jostling you in a crowd, as this 1s usually the way that pickpockets operate. Carry only enough money with you for your day's needs. Be conscious of your Jnoney or pocketbook, and of the persons around you. Forgetfulness or absorption in other matters often leads to loss. Be particularly careful of your purse while using the elevators. Carry enough small change with you for incidental needs, such as lunch and carfare. Laying Down Purse Dangerous. Never lay your purse down on & store counter while looking at mer- chandise or for other reasons. Men should not carry their bill- folds or wallets in an easily accessible place, such as the hip pocket. Do not tempt thieves by exposing the contents of your purse or pocket- book in the presence of strangers. Do not allow yourself to become engaged in conversation too easily with strangers, as this is usually the method of approach resorted to by flim-flam artists when preparing a victim for a robbery. Before leaving home for your day’s shopping be certain that your home is securely locked. Always lock your automobile se. curely before leaving same. Do rot leave packages exposed to view i your automobile as this invites the attention of thieves to break open locks and remove the property.
