MORE DISCIPLINE
FOR THE POLICE

A police sergeant and a patrolman
were up before the Police Commits
sion yesterday afternoon, both
charged with neglect of duty. The
charges against the former was the
outgrowth of the charge against the
patrolman. The latter was more than
an hour late in making a report and
he missed a roll call at the police
station. The sergeant, it was said,
failed to report this alleged dere-
LECTION until two days later, and then
only after Chief of Police Black
started to make an investigation.
Another charge against the ser
geant was that he failed TO investi-
gate and report or the case of a pa
trolman who said he had been in
jured while on duty and had to 60
home This is said to have occurred
on September 1, but was never re.
ponfed by the sergeant
The patrolman, under charges, was
reprimanded after pleading guilty
but the case OF the sergeant was
held up for the present, after he haC
pleaded not guilty.
The commissioners made il plair
that there would have to be more
discipline in the future and thai
street sergeants must live up to the
rules of the department and in this
way set a good example for the mer
under them.
