Chief Rawlings Tells Patroimen What and What Not to Do Hereafter. When the night patrolmen lined up at the desk at police headquarters last night, Chief William J. Rawlings was on hand to give them a short but pointed talk. At the outset the chfef told the men that the practice of “passing the buck” should be dis- icontinued, and that more instances of 1sing their owny judgment should be practiced by the patrolmen. The chief spoke of the action of the police com- mission in discontinuing the special ietail of men who have ferreted out the liquor Jaw violators for the past nine months, and said that in the fu- ture the duty of taking care of the reats will rest entirely on e patrol- Another thing that the chief warned \gainst was the passing of offenders mto the beat of another policeman, thereby making it unnecessary to ~ome to court on the following morn- ng. Each patrolman will be expect- *d in the future to rely on his own udgment and not wait until the ser- eant on the street puts in un ap- earance before action is taken on pecified matters.
