comes my duty frankly to say So and
repudiate them.
The idea which l sought to i'm
press was that the number of foreign
ers with whom the police come in con-
tact Is very large, and that special
knowledge OF racial customs and man
ners is essential 10 the attainment %
the best results by the police in the
investigation of crimes committed BY
and against those OF foreign origin.
The percentage given of Jewish
boys in the House OF Refuge IS. 1t ap-
pears, also misleading. This proper
ton OF boys, it Is now pointed out,
should be considered not solely in rela
ton to the total number Of boys In
the House of Refuge, but with refer
ence to the total number Of boys In al
similar institutions where boys OF this
age and OF other races and faiths arc
sent. The proportion Of Jewish BOYS
considered in relation to the inmates
of other like institutions would be, o.
course, radically different.
