Woods Tells of Police
CLean-Up in Gotham,

Continued from Page One
favor with that person than he will in
attending 20 his duty.
"a cop is only human. II policeman
realizes that the way 10 be in right Is
not TO do good work. but 10 have an in
fiuentlal friend ho will neglect police work
to cultivate the friend. Police corruption
does not occur because the policemen are
particularly bad, but because they are hu-
man and under the wrong system are put
where they don't have a chance.
Therefore" said Mr. Woods, Il issued in
my first general order an invitation to tho
policemen 70 come TO me In person II they
had anything TO ask. ! went around the
streets and saw the policemen, letting
them know that I'd stand by them II they
did their work properly Since l have been
in office. over three years now, have not
done favor for any one The police are
beginning TO know this now,
''I want to say" continued the Commits
sioner, that anything l might do is by
reason of the Mayors cooperation,
dropped In upon Mayor Mitchell one day
and found man talking TO him about
transferring a police captain. The Mayors
face lighted up when he saw me. Why,
here's the man you want 20 see" he said.
IT wouldn't do any good for me to ask him
70 have your captain transferred. lie
wouldn't listen TO me-
"A commissioner cannot run a police
IOTCe elHClenuy MT, WOODS emphasized,
bringing his hand down on the table, with
out a free hand given him by the Mayor"
AT the present time" he went on, "the
New York police know that poor work
cannot be counteracted by supposedly in.
fluentlal friends or good work nulihed by
enemies at court"
Mr.. Woods then told Of a motorcycle
cop who had conflded to him one dark night
without knowing who he was the follow
ing commentary: Things ain't like they
use TO be You niver git word that the man
you plnched is a friend of the boss and TO
let him off with a charge of smoking In
stead % speeding"
THE pcemen mold themselves after the
head Of the force. If they believe that the
head is conscientious and Woodworking they
find It safe 20 do right and perform their
duties like men. But do you realize that
1t isn't safe in some pllces for policeman
| to do his job as 1t should be done? 1t
isn't the fault of the poor. underpad cop if
he falls into temptation when those over him
are not doing their duty.
You would be surprised and shocked to
know at the present time that piCkpockets
go into n city and make arrangements with
the police beforehand with regard to pro-
tection for picking pockets. why do we
pay policemen so little and subject them
to such terrific temptation? Three pick
pockets in New York told me not long ago
that they were willing TO pay $4,000 for the
right TO fitch money in front Of tho Grand
| Central station, at Forty-second street and
Fourth avenue"
Mr.. Woods then went on 10 tell Of the
police relations TO the foreign born and
Of the effect that a cops actions have in
determining tho opinions that foreigners
will have Of this country. He told Of many
instances of kindness which he had OBJ
served in New York cops.

WRITE TO THE BOYS

Did you save the list of Gunnison
county soldier boys and their address
ses printed in the News-C Champion last
week?
Imagine yourself thousand miles
from home, under conditions they are
facing and see if you cannot spare a
little human sympathy and kindness
by writing at least postal card to
some Of them that you think or know
will be lonesome. There is no use be-
ing particular about the closeness of
your acquaintance with the soldier to
whom you write. We do not stand on
ceremony in the West, nor very much
in any other corner of Uncle Sans
dominions. The boys are lonely, and
perhaps the fellow with whom you are
the least acquainted with needs let
ter most. Sit down and write.
And if at any time you are in doubt
about the name or address of any boy
in camp or in France, or on sea, con-
suit the News Champion. The names
and addresses are all card indexed at
this office.

THE MUSICAL ARTS QUARTET
WEDNESDAY,, DECEMBER

There is genuine pleasure in hear
ing male quartet with the voices, the
program, and the personality of the
Musical Arts and Quartet. They
have been called the Harmony Four"
of the Lyceum and Chautauqua plat
form. In solo work, in ensemble sing
ing, in their readings, sketches and
pianologues, these young men have q
varied program which has brought
column after column of unstinted
praise from the newspapers along the
route. For several years they have
been ranked as one of the leading sing
ing organizations Of the lyceum. Their
program is one that will please every
one having some of the classical mus
ic, some of the popular and patriotic
songs, and best Of all, the "Old Home
songs" that are too often neglected.
They have been trained by Elias
Day, the leading coach Of the Chauta-
uqua and Lyceum platform, and this
fact alone assures the public of ster-
ling company. They will appear on
the Gunnisonf Lyceum course, We'd

AN ODD CASE ABOUT wHIskEY

Montrose Enterprise:
A queer phase Of the anti-liquor
law developed the other day when two
young men from Silverton were brot
before Justice Franklin. One had
whiskey in his stomach and was taxed
for that offense $8.75. The other still
had his whiskey in his pocket, and for
that offense was given $111.10. Now
it is philosophic matter to determine
Just why it is less criminal to drink
whiskey than not to drink it.
