have respect for the law and enforce
it.
For the first six days Of March
only sixteen arrests were made for
violation of the Mapp law. From
March to March Is. the latest date
of record. only two such arrests were
made, making a total of eighteen for
the first half OF the month.
A portion of the decrease, 1t Is ad-

working, the arrests were few. The
