when visited by committee Of thu
Ministerial Union the board hat
pointed out the difficulties In thu
way. but had issued an order that 4
be stopped. and had assured the com
mittee that endeavors would be made
to enforce the order. Several ar
rests had been made. he said. SIR
Pollard then questioned the witness
as. to the prevalence of drinking
among policemen and methods en-
ployed to restrict it. Chairman
Grundy asked:
would IT he practicable to say
that no policemsh should drink al

Mr.. Gordon replied.
IT should hope so; ! know that II
liz bad for any one to drink"
Rogers: Isn't the proportion oil
drinking men small?"
Gordon: Very small"
Question OF Drinking Policemen.
Mr.. Pollard asked the witness II
railroad corporations did not prohibit
drinking by their employees and when
answered in the affirmative, asked:
us not the police force of the city
as important as the employees OF a
railroad or other corporation
Gordon: Il think So
Pollard: Then why not adopt the
same rule as regards drinking"
Gordon: Because the lives of a
thousand men might depend upon the
sobriety of an engineer
Witness did not believe that any
hard and fast rule should be adopted.
He thought that the efficiency and de-
pertinent of the man in other respects
should he taken into consideration. An
efficient man would ne find while an
other might be dismissed. he said. ASK
ed If he though that policy would have
a bad effect upon the others, he re-
piled in the negative,
Commissioner Gordon praised the
Richmond police force highly. He de-
clared that the Atlanta force could

agents OF the Federal Department OF
Justice had voluntarily appeared be-
fore the Board of Police Commission

lation Richmond is the best regulated

The witness thought the police force
should be enlarged, as did Commits
sioner Boykin. who followed Both
agreed that the eight-hour shift should
he substituted for the six-hour shit
so that the police could secure more
continuous sleep. About ffty new po-
lice are needed. Mr.. Gordon thought.
tiauor Question Again Bobs Up.
Mr. Gordon was questioned as TO the
enforcement of the law against liquor
TO intoxicated men;
Pollard: How many barkeepers have
been reported for selling liquor TO men
who were intoxicated?
Gordon. l cannot remember.
Pollard: How many men have walked
off the dock while intoxicated
Gordon: Very many.
Pollard. why II the police force In so
efficient, have not police arrested bar
keepers who violated the law in this
respect
The witness explained the difficulty

Number OF Houses.
Mr.. Gordon said he did not believe
there were f20 nbuses of ill-fame out.
side the district. and that he had
never heard of a case of solicitation
on the streets. The vice commission
says that solicitation is common.
Murray Mcclure questioned the wit
ness as to the business of Commits
sioners Mccarthy and Goode. The
former. said Mr.. Gordon, had been a
liquor salesman. and he had strongly
resented the fact. However. when he
learned that Mr.. Mccarthy had lost
his place because he could not sell
liquor. he took that ms proof that the
commissioners had not used the powers
of police commissioner to help him.
Asked by Mr.. Pollard what he
would have done had he heard of the
incident in the ONCE of Chief Wer-
ner. when Commissioner Goode re-
b,Aked Detectives Campodonica and
IGoldsby for raiding house on North
First Street. Mr. Gordon replied.
IF had heard of IL and had thought
Mr.. Goode in earnest / would certainly
have reported 1t to the Mayor

stand at the request of Councilman
Rogers. declared that he considered "a

city, However, he, too. contended that

In dealing with cases of drunk enness
Homes Reported to Chief.
Commissioner Boykin read from a
memorandum book list of houses to
which he had called the attention OF
the Chief of Police. They had not
been raided, although at least one was
Investigated. with no result, he said,
he was informed by the chief
Joe weinstein. formerly a Richmond
pawnbroker. but now of Roanoke. tes-
tilted that he had sold ring to Ser
geant Krengel for ss5 Krengel had
testified that he paid SIS.
Officers who had testified before the
Vice Commission were then called
and their testimony read to them
They were asked to correct any err
rors Policeman Sweet made two
corrections. He had not said thai
he had seen Commissioner McCar-
thy in n house outside the segre-
gated district. but when MIR. Mcclure
suggested that the name might nave
been a typographical error. he said
that his statement had referred II
Commissioner We'll. He made ont
other correction, but testified that the
rest Of his testimony was correctly
recorded. Detective Sergeants Colds
by and Campodonica verified their
testimony as recorded, except in one
or two unimportant details. Chief
of Police Werner said his testimony
was correctly recorded.
All But Three E.xonerated,
Long continued efforts on the part
of Alderman Workman to learn what
other commissi oners than We'll. Goode

Calling attention to the fact that the
Seaton resolution was almost identica
with his. Mr.. Workman rose from
his scat and declared:
y 'am willing 10 quit right here.

or the police board j feel that /

This sentiment was echoed by Mr..
Seaton, who continued to press his
resolution. Alderman Melton called

last Sunday, had charged that fun evil
