SHEPARDS ADD 2 GIRLS

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-Two little
girls. whose past history will be kept
secret, have been adopted by Mr.. and
Mrs. Finley Shepard. They are Helen
Anna, six and a half years old. and
o. Margaret. There are now three
prospective heirs to the Gould fortune.
Finley ]. Shepard. jr., the Oldest, was
adopted two years ago. Mrs. Shepard
announced that the three would bear
the family name and would share
equally in the family estate.

matrons in the Christmas seasons
Washington merchants would lose
thousands of dollars as the result OF
shrewd work by shoplifters. Even
with this protection there IS much
loss. Both the policewomen and some
of the matrons personally know many
women under suspicion as shoplifters
and are able to keep close track OF
their movements in stores.
To Appeal to Congress.
1t is agreed by the District Commits
sioners and Major Pullman that po-
licemen in Washington must be paid
better salaries. There are today nifty
four vacancies on the Washington
police force, despite every effort to az
tract dsirabls men. In the last fifty
days the department has just been
able to fill vacancies during that time,
making no progress toward COM
pletinE the force to Its maximum.
The $50 a month offered to new police
men to begin with was once sufficient
to induce men to seek the vacancies,
but this is no longer true.
The situation will be laid before
Congress with especial emphasis when
that body meets in December. Con-
gressmen often make appeals TO the
Police Department, and the statesmen
do not require much urging to under
stand the dangers to themselves and
Washington generally OF q depleted
| police force.
Suburban sections OF Washington
are making bitter complaints against
lack OF police protection, although
/ most suburbanites know something
| of conditions under which the depart
| ment Is laboTing.

MORE WOMEN
TO A|DPOL|CE
|SNEED HERE,
APPEAL SAYS
BY BILL PRICE

The District Commissioners Will
ask Congress for more policewomeh
for Washington, increased pay for
the force, and more money for the
eight police matrons.
There are two policewOmen In this
city, both doing good work, accord
ing to police authorities, and three or
four more can be used effectively.
The use Of poIicewomen in Washlns
ton began less than a year ago ane
has been successful. How the depart
ment got along without their serv-
ices before is a mystery, although
prior to their appointment under the
law they had been police matrons
and had been assigned to detective
work at frequent intervals, making
records that brought about their pro-
motion when Congress authorized two
regular policewomen.
Women Are Effective.
The regular matrons now do spe-
cial assignment work whenever the
policewomen are unable to handle
the extra work put upon them. They
are sent to moving picture shows to
protect girls against men who are
annoying them. During the Christ
mas shopping season, and when extra
crowds are to be handled in Washing
ton they do the equivalent OF police
and detective duty in addition to their
regular duties.
Three matrons at the house of de-
tention are paid 5000 a year, and five
at police stations receive S72O q year.
During uhis FISCAL year the 10 per
bonus given by Congress is being
| added
Major Pullman and the Commits
sIoners believe these women are
poorly paid for their services. They
J are compelled to take charge OF the
vilest of prisoners and are often
roughly treated by vicious and drunk
en- women who object TO regulations
/ One of the matrons not long ago wa:
seriously hurt by being kicked by
prisoner and another was in the hos
pital for some time from injuries re
eeived when a police wagon collidec
with another vehicle.
Salary Raise Needed.
Congress fixed the salaries OF th'
two police-women at SIS per month
the same given a man when beginning
upon the force. 1t is desired to have
these women put on the same foot
ing as patrolmen, so that after three
| years of service they may be glVer

| There is need for a larger number
of policewomen in Washington thar
Congress will probably allow, 1t Il

the force one is assigned to specia
investigations of a private character
She works in direct touch with higi
officials Of the department. and he
