The Acclaim of
His Enemies

During his long service in the department
Costigan has made enemies, but he has also
made stanch friends. 1t WAS these who
when he was removed from the ranks of the
inspectors lifted up their voices in violent
protest-are still lifting them up SO loudly
that Albany-yes, even Palm Beach-has
heaEd their roar of objection.
Flas6n these and from records and news
paper files the following skeletonized tale
of the life and work of Daniel E. Costigan
in the Police Department was gleaned
In 1889 young Irish American carpenter
made application to the Civil Service for
appointment to the Police Department. He
had little of the political backing that took
precedence over all else in those days, but
he took the examination, was ranked near
the head of the list OF eligibles, and in
June of that year first put the long,
blue frock coat and the tall, ungainly felt
helmet Of the department of that day.
Patrolman Costigan was assigned to the
West Forty-seventh Street police station,
then on the upper rim of the city's night
life, above the roaring, red-lit, wide-open
Tenderloin that was clustering and
brazen in its vice along Sixth Avenue and
the streets of the Twenties and Thirties.
For seven years thereafter Costigan
pounded the pavements," serving his ap-
premiership. Part of this time was spent
in the West Tooth Street station, into
which he was swept by one Of the waves Of
change that are always sweeping through
the department.
During this time he became acquainted
at first hand with the vice of the city in
general and with many Of the vicious in
particular. But though in those days he
was storing up knowledge Of personalities
and methods that was to stand In good
stead in the time to come when he was to
lead his men on their cleansing mission,
Costigan was apart from many Of his fell
lows in his attitude toward the law
breakers.
In those days of open, defiant SHINING q
policeman who above "bt of the
sugar" was only little less rare than a
white blackbird. It Is small wonder that
the quiet ex-carpenter who did his work as
policeman and kept himself clean Of the
net of graft that lay over the department
should come to be known for his honesty.

One of the Iiyest subjects to come be- fore the present session of the legisla- ture is child welfare in Alabama. It will be put to the fore by the women of Alabama who have devoted much of their time and thought to conditions ex. isting in the state and to the best waya of improving them.
 A book of 249 pages, containing the re- port of results of survey made in Ala bama by the national child labor com, mittee under the auspices and with tht cooperation of the University of Ala. bama, will be placed in the hands of tn. legislators. These reports deal with every phase of child welfare work. health education, home treatment, work and the care and treatment of delinquents, de- flcients and dependents. 1t is printed in several chapters each chapter covering certain topics pertaining to the work, each being prepared and written by an expert in his or her line. The volume contains much valuable information and suggestions as to the best way to i'm prove conditions among the children oi the state.
 In the introductory to her article on juvenile courts and probation, Mrs. w.. l.. Murdoch of Birmingham, who spent several months Investigating conditions says:
 This inquiry was undertaken with view to learning how well the Juvenile court is serving the purpose for which it was created, in what respect it has failed, if at all, and what should be done to make it fully successful. question naire was sent to the juvenile courts of the 67 counties of the state, asking for the number of cases dealt with in the year 1917, whether separate dockets for children'.s cases were kept, whether sep arate trials were held. what disposition was made or each case, and what were the chief causes of local delinquency and dependency The counties of Jefferson, Mobile, Montgomery, Dallas, Madison, Lee.
