Then I told Chief Fitz-Morris that the one criticism I had heard of his methods wan that he overplayed “strong arm” tactics, as Illustrated by the charge that he had ordered the members of his force to shoot men on suspicion. * He shook his head. “I never gave such an order,” he said. “And while 1 have promoted men for unusual eMfctency in fighting criminals, the average policeman’s record de ds not on the number of arrests he je but on the crime h pre example, I had one boy who was just a probationer and didn't even Wear a uniform. He Was stand- ing in a drug store one night when three men entered and, thinking him & customer, told him to put up his hands whilé they searched: him and robbed the store. He didn't put 'em up. Instead, he pulled his gun and killed one of the bandits, capturing ajl three and getting wounded him- self during the scrimmage. I made that boy next thing to a Sergeant. EVERY POLICEMAN PUT GN rid METTLE. “Now and then there are promo- tions for instances 6f such exception- al courage and quickness in attack. But each man on the force has a card filed away here at headquarters. When a hold-up or a burglary or THE EVENING WORLD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1921. some other orime ocours anywhere f the city the fact is noted on thé cards of the patrolman, the Sergeant, the Captain, in whose district the crime has been committed. The notation is, in a sense, a black mark against these men. When too many of these marks accumulate, the owners of the cards are due for a fauling over the coals or for something worse. “It is my theory that the police- man who knows he is being judged for what happens in his district makes a point of knowing his dis- trict. He keeps watch over the pool- rooms and other possible headqiar- ters of disorder. He pays close @aten- tion to the homes or shops am@ bis beat which he is supposed to susrd. He knows the people in his district; if even one man keeps peculiar hours and comes home late he makes a point of looking that man up, He does not try to fatten his average by a lot of fool arrests, the victims of which are discharged by the Magistrates as oon as they are brought into court. It is only the secondary function of the police to catch criminals, the first duty is to prevent crime, Every man on the Chicago force knows that he is responsible for this task in his particular field.” And I thought of the motto that The Fragrance of Anticipates its exquisite flavor. to a leaf. and always good alike “ f | g 3 4 j P3 HF i E i gti | i g 3 Fed i ® } : i | | 3 i i i Une a BROOKLYN Pure We Are Pleased to Render the Added Service of aCharge Account, D.PrICEsCo.
