WORK OF WALDO WSK MONTHS | AS PUGE HEN \No “Take Him Out” Cry Heard for Man Who Has Added 900 Men to Patrol. “CENTRAL OFFICE” GONE Detectives in Every Precinct—| List of Delinquents Cut By 12 Per Cent. | | | | Police Commissioner ‘Rhinelander Waldo took office on May 2 and co:m- pleted six months of service in office on Thureday. The Police Commissioner: | jeutp 1s the official rock upon which @ succession of ambitious men have} wrecked thelr hopes In the past fifteen | years, and the caroer of Mr. Waldo has, tire community, | Thus far no loud cries of “Take him) out" have been projected tn Commis: | sioner Waldo's direction. There is con- siderable biiterness against tim among the uniformed men because he estab- | lished the fixed post and abolirhed nearly 1,000 fat details, but even the police officers who feel aggrieved be-| cause of these measures admit that, in gwoneral, they are getting a fair deal at Headquarters. Commissioner Waldo went into office with @ well defined idea of how a police department should be run. That he has the courage of his convictions jhown {by the fact that he began to institu his reforms and innovations as soon as he took up duties, One of his first }offictal acts—-prompte? by Mayor Gaynor—was the promotion of a small army of polloemen who had pasvet| |examinations for inspector, captain, | Heutenant or sergeant and had been re- | fused advancement by Cropsey because some of the men well ‘up on the st did not sult him, PROMOTIONS MADE It ORDER OF SENIORITY, Since Commissioner Waldo took office all promotions have been made tn the order of jority on the Civil Service | eligible li In theory this ts the prac- tice in all departments. Commissioner Waldo is the first heed of the Polico Department who ever carried it out. | In his former service in the depart- | ment a Deputy Commissioner Mr, Waldo had become familiar with the, spectal detail system, by which officers! j with @ political pull were placed in Positions where they were required to! do very little work or no work at all. las on he was aworn he began to plan to do away with this system, and | the biggest thing he has do.e, Cloge to 90 policemen have been taken ti. the courts and from other soft de- | tails and put on active puice duty. In| effect the eMciency of the Police De- | partment as a patrol and protective | agency has been increased almost 10 per nt, with a small increased cost to! the taxpayers for special court officers | and clerks to take the places of the| policemen. Not only has the abolition of the! special detail system added nearly 90 men to the active police force, but it has been @ powerful agency in doing | away with jealousy and politics. Po! able to reward policemen elped them by getting soft de- tails for the helpful cops. Now there are very few details, At least four men were trying to get the ddtall of jevery man that held one, More than half the police force was continually playing polities for soft snaps. Now} the soft snaps have vanished and there ts no occasion to play that kind of | politics, \ WIPED OUT TIME HONORED | CENTRAL SQUAD. | | A revolutionary innovation which | | Commissioner Waldo’ worked out as| soon as he could: after getting ¢! | power, the wiping out of the time 2, to/honored an@ cumbersome Central Office | '? noted as a writer of east| Squad.

The skins in these garments are positively guaranteed as the highest grade of the GENUINE SHETLAND ISLAND SEALS The linings and workmanship are of the very highest order. As for reliability, the “W/_NAMAKER” n.une is enough, but behind us stands a firm of importers and manufacturers of seal garments, who commenced their business in 1864. This business has descended from father to son since that time, and whatever they have said about the seal garments WE CUARANTEE : Hourly it is brought to us that this retailer and that furrier have said that it is absolutely impossible for WANAMAKER’S to put before the public a GENUINE SHETLAND SEAL COAT 54 INCHES LONG FOR FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. Since our great fur business began years ago it has been our aim to pull away the veil of mystery surrounding the fur trade, and we have assurance from very many of the prominent members of the old guild of reliable manufacturing furriers that if other houses will do as we are doing it will not only put their craft on a much higher plane, but will enormously increase their business. NOW, IN ANSWER TO THE STATEMENT MADE THAT WE CANNOT SELL A GENUINE SHETLAND SEAL COAT FOR FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS, HERE ARE THE COATS It can be done, and very easily, particularly when we decide to distribute among our patrons a limited number of GENUINE HIGH GRADE SEAL GARMENTS AT OR ABOUT USUAL COST. we acknowledge that it would be absolutely impossible to do this if we added the usual fur profit. é It is true that a furrier who has his retail store open only four months in the year could not afford to sell this garment under $850.00, $1,000.00 and in some cases $1,200.00, prices being regulated by locality and expense of doing business. Only a few bundles of these choice skins are left and altogether only ten garments ready to wear, but so long as they remain unsold our price shall remain the same, “FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS EACH.” f We are not offering our entire fur stock at cost, but are buying enormous quanti- ties of the highest grade furs manufactured here and abroad and are selling them at a profit that we feel is ample. § Furs are now regarded among the necessities and should be sold at a profit that is ordinarily put upon women's or men's clothing. as We are repeatedly told that our stock of manufactured furs is the largest shown anywhere, and for any fur want we invite you to see our great collection.

Not that Pony Coats at $50.00 were a rarity or even so-called Coats at $27.00 and $30.00, but these were all made from the beautiful Russian ponies (s: )» and the fine glossy Argentine ponies (haca), coats made from full, whole skins, selected for the rich moire eff and glossy finish, making them resemble the fine broadtail coat. It was no wonder they were gone in less than half a day's selling. Again we have to offer Monday fifty-eeven of the same costs in all sizes, 34 to 44 inclu- sive, at $50.00, but if they are sold as quickly as the last fifty-seven, a day later will be too to secure one, JOHN WANAMAKER Formerly A.
