New York, Oct. 25.?Here's a brand new wrinkle in the
radio. The police of the city of New York are using it to make
almost daily reports of their activities and their aims to the
people.
"Taking the police to the'
home iind fireside" they call it-,
and the idea is to onset all that
the people read in?papers |
about hold-ups and daylight
robberies and the murder of I
bank messengers with payrolls
in their possession.
Tin- commissioner of police, Mr.
Enrlght. "lh? '""t commissioner
Now York ever had," his friends say,
has been lining most of the radio
talking anil time is no denying he
is some advocate for his department.
The commissioner believes his Idea
will spread to other big cities anil
that through It the people will Ret
an entire different perspective on
.their.^oJlrf ih'.paj-muuiu?
They are also going to have in
New York a scries of mass meetings
devoted to "praise the Pollce." The
copp.ers have beta asK-.i to dlatrl
bute tickets to mo meet'
when you talk to them on the sun
ject they laconically say it is the
??bunk." The ordinary cop does not
feel that he needs any Pral8?- \l,
the "higher ups who feel tin stum
of pubUc criticism and are endea
voring to stirt the ',aC ?ra^L
?ne admits that it is W'"
the police and they also admit Ht.rt
the police deserve the pra.se. Hut.
It is feared that if there is too much
pri'selt will spur the titles on to
greater efforts and the police nwi
get the worst of it in the end.
