THE FIVE-PLATOON SYSTEM
Reader Sees in It a Cause for Lack Of
Patrolmen in Our Streets.

To tho Editor Of Tho Tribune.
Sir: have recently seen In your Va'nao''

torioration Of the patrol force OF tho folic'
Department in this city. ! holieye mat inc
present nve-platoon system is the prime
cause Of II all. with tho resultant increase

Under tho five platoon system thor" arc
not enough men assigned 20 active patro'
during tho day hours--S y. IN. 10 y. M

the old two-platoon system was apoilsne"
the patrol force has been mt down more

ing the poor Taxpayers \ poorer ana more
Inadequate service for their money in tho
very face of the fact that the city has been
increasing I'm population steadily, while the
cost of the Police Department has IN
creased moro than $500 annually.
Under this Infamous five-rlatoon system
the assignment Of patrolmen Is divided into
five platoons: ono platoon going on duty
In each precinct at n time. of six hours
duty On post: one platoon going on reserve
duty at tho station house for the same
period Of time and three patoons, or 81 per
cent Of the mon. being of duty altogether
from 8 a. m. to p m. leaving the city IN
it's present poorly protected condition.
OF course. all the crooks and criminals
are aware Of the conditions OF the present
inadequate police service and have been
taking active advantage of II. as the daily
news of the papers will readily show.

NEW IDEA IN SUBWAY SEATS.

To the Editor of The Tribune
sir: Here is a plan for solving the eat
ing question on the various transit lines
which is, in short. neither more nor less
than the substitution of four rows of
"miserere" seats for the two rows of too
comfortable ones now i'm use. the two extra
rows 10 occupy the centre OF the ears where
straphangers more or less limp and Jeiect-
ed, now hang, while complacent individuals
take Nh the space for one and half.

tho uninitiated was an inclined bench in
old cathedrals half as wide and broad as
an ordinary seat and At least foot higher

they were designed for the use of those

who had weak Understandings and who
were obliged to attend long services with
out an ordinary scat. on the 'msereres'

Sir: All persons whether citizens or So
iourners in our overGrown. congested city
have within It's limits an inalienable right
10 personal security. If 10 nothing else.
That unforeseen dangers daily surround

them is a lamentahle fact and one so pat
ent that no time should be lost in iindng
an adequate remedy therefor.
In summer time horrible accidents on eX-
cursion boats and railway trains. carrying
millions of passengers 10 our nearest wa
tering places. furnish reasons OF themselves
TO call for the interposition and protection
Of some public department. whose only end
and aim should be the insurement of ample
safety TO all who travel by sea or land in
our vicinity. Passing by the horrors en-
tailed by the recent powder explosion L
Comrlunipaw and the equally shocking
disaster at the Grand Central Station. and
considering only the future, let MS by time
" action guard against such terrible disas-
tcrS i'm the Years TO come.
Under such circumstances. surely it Is
not asking too much Of Congress and our
state Legislature to vouchsafe New York

whose sole duty Il should be to prevent
