PORTER TO DEMAND
500 MORE POLICE
Blame of Many Recent Rob
berries Laid to Neglect of Ac-
tion by Councils.

Five hundred new policemen will be
requested by Director Of Public Safety
George d. Porter In a message which he
will send to Councils at their meeting
next week, This will be the second re-
quest for more police made by the DE-
rector within the last year.
The Director answered the retort OF
opponents of the present administration
that he was keeping too many policemen
In City Hall clerical positions by citing
figures, showing that there are now only
about one-fourth of the number there
that he found when he assumed POSI-
ton AT that time, he sald there wero
over 200 policemen in the City Hall doing
other duty than that of patrolmen. He
reduced this force to So men, and this
number, he said, is not SUFFICIENT to do
the clerical work required. He has asked
Councils to grant him clerks, but they
have not seen 1t to do so.
The criticism that the three platoon
system Is responsible for the increased
number of robberies was unjustned, he
added. The present system gets more and
better work from the men than the two
platoon system. Philadelphia, he said,
was the last of the large cities to adopt
the three platoon system and II, through
refusal to grant him more policemen, the
city must return to the two platoon ays-
tenn and the efficiency of the force ia
thereby reduced, Councils will have to
bear the odium.
Lack of police in different parts OF the
city and Councils failure to grant appro-
prlatons for additional men. Superinten-
dent of Police Robinson said today, were
responsible for 1873 robberies since Janu-
airy l. Police records show that the total
losses were close to $4,000.
He said that unless Councils granted
appropriations for more men, especially
in the outlying sections, more robberles
would occur. Within the last so days
there have been AZ highway robberies.
Most of these crimes were committed in
sections where policemen have to cover
beats more than two miles long, in some
cases three miles long and mile wide.

SLAVES OF CUSTOM"
Rev. H. D. Viets Urges Christians to
Be Independent.

Applying the Character of Christ to
Our Own Character" was the subject of
today's noon Lenten sermon at Old ST.
Peters Church, Sd and Pine streets, de-
livered by the Rev. Harry D. Viets, the
junior curate. He declared that in the
present age almost no one escaped the
weakness of aping his fellows and that
Christian life demanded greater independ-
ence.
Men Of our day are nodded by the
society = which they form a part" said
Doctor Viets. "They yield readily to the
ideas and habits OF their fellows. A few
master spirits set the pace for a thousand
men.
There is a very real slavery in the So
cial world. Few men are strong enough
to cut across the customs and fashions
of their strata of society. The strong
and seemingly independent become mere
echoes of their neighbors and hasten to
fall in behind the crowd in the we'll
beaten paths.
Christ was not nodded by the society
of his day. He could not be manipulated.
He refused to be used. He was always in
dependent, unshackled and free. lie
would have us initiate His tenacity of will
in the structure of our Christian charac-
ter"

by Prof Guglielmo Ferrero, the eminent

one of the most distinguished historians

Bishop Charles d. Williams. of Michi>

Lenten sermons at st. Stephens Church,
10th street above Chestnut, refused to
make a statement today in regard to
the report that charges of heresy were
about to be brought against him by
Episcopal clergymen in Michigan.
Bishop Williams said that 1t was true
that charges of "corrupting the word of
God with Unitarian teachings" had been
made, but beyond that he would not
speak. An agitation in Michigan to have
the Bishop arraigned before an ecclesi-
astical court according to dispatches re-
ceived today, is expected to reach a
climax in a few days
