PREVENTION method
ADOPTED BY Police
New York Commissioner Says Plan
Used in Catching Anarchists
Will Be Pursued.

New York. March 6.-Thc police OF New
York City have become convinced that
their new plan for catching bomb throw
ers and other terrorists is the only prac-
teal one. Police Commissioner Arthur
Woods said yesterday that the system
OF prevention used in the arrests of
Frank Abarno and Carmine Carbone an
archists accused of trying to blow up
St Patrick's Cathedral, will be followed
up.
Yes. VIC are consciously using a new
method of detective work." Commission
er Wood said yesterday. THAT is. We
are using old methods with new en-
phasiS. The trailing method in itself is
not new. but We are using it now to
catch criminals at their crimes. instead
of to apprehend them and fastcn a crime
upon them after it has been committed
and the damage done.
The old method was to wait for a
crime to be reported and then begin
the solution of the mystery by gather
inS evidence. Under this new system
we get our evidence first hand, right at
the time.
This has been worked out by my
self. Mr.. Soul, and Mr.. Lord. in con-
sultation with the bureau commanders.
We go to the lineup every morning
and discuss with the men what is best
to be done. 1t has been a joint product.
BEST OF all. We have got the men
working as they never worked before
there is new spirit that makes every
one of them take individual pride in the
success of Pulignano's work in the bomb
case, and also in the work of Lieut..
Stapleton and his men in this case Of the
five Italian hold-up men.
And remember this. too-these are
two successful cases, but there are
any numbers OF others in which other
men have done just as good work. but
you don't hear about them, because for
some reason or other the expected crime
did not come off,
