THE FAD.

The police commissioner of New
York City is planning a police reserve
force OF $4,000 civilians. The idea
seems TO have been borrowed from
Chicago, where there is a project on
foot to organize a volunteer police
system of $4,000 citizens, TO supple.
ment the activities of the regular mol
ice.
Undoubtedly there is plenty of work
in both Chicago and New York for
such a force. In Chicago, for example.
they might be used TO round up the

winter the regulars seem unable TO
cope with. In New York the civilian
cops might help keep traffic moving,

The notion seems to be current that
II there is anything to do in this
country that requires special train,

volunteer police, volunteer soldiers,
