The Police Commissioner
Must Have the Aid of
the People of Detroit

Police Commissioner Couzens is en-
deavoring to do what many have con
tended is the impossible.
He is making an earnest effort to
stamp out Detroits red light district
and reports already that his campaign
approaches success.
Other police commissioners have tried
to meet this issue with regulation, and
have failed.
Couzens' predecessor announced that
he would meet it as CouZens Is now de-
termined to meet it, but he didn't.
He found it a political impossioility.
CLOSING the scarlet house is the
easiest thing in the world.
II is the easiest thing in the world TO-
back a patrol wagon up to the house,
load in the inmates and line them UP be
fore a police Justice the next morning.
The police justice may send them 70
the house of correction or he may let
them go with a warning to leave town,
and they may heed the warning and
leave town. but absolutely NO progress
has been made in the direction Of driv-
ing the scarlet traffic cut.
The women engaged in this traffic
must not only be driven out Of town, bat
kept out of town, and there is only one
way to keep them out of town and that is
to make sure that there are no places for
them to come back to-
Commissioner Couzens has struck at
the very heart of the traffic by asking De
troit citizens who have rented their prop
erty to women Of the underworld, to make
sure of their tenants or to feel state law
which obligates them to make sure of
their tenants.
In the majority Of cases. the commits
sioner has found ready and willing CO
operation and right there in that one
word is the key to the success of the.
crusade.
Vice cannot be driven from Detroit or
any other city unless there is co-opera-
ton all along the line.
The police commissioner can drive
the scarlet women away.
1t is up to the PEOPLE OF THE CITY
whether they come back.
They can scatter and contaminste the
residential districts and the police COM
missioner is helpless.
But if there is cooperation, they viii
not be able to scatter.
The matter of Kidding Detroit of its
underworld and the undesirable men and
women in it, is not UP to the police COM
missioner at all, but to the people Of
Detroit
He must have their help.
If he gets it, he will succeed in his cam
paign to clean UP.
If he does not get it, he viii not sue
coed, nor will any other police commits
sioner OF set of officials at any time in
the future.
The necessity for team work and less
disputation between the police depart
ment and the courts is apparent
Commissioner Couzens has gone more
than half way to indicate his own appre-
ciation that there must be a pulling to-
gether.
His visit to Judge Jeffries' office was
made in the right spirit and while the
result of their conference has not been
announced, the hand-clasp with which
the Judge and commissioner parted may
be construed to mean that an under
standing was reached and an arrange
ment made between the two that will be
productive Of results
When officials fall out rogues get
away.
