derworld conditions.

According 10 Major F'razer's plans,
ten men will be detailed from among
| the ranks to serve as special military
| police during the period of the vice
crusade.
This precautiou is to be taken. it
| IS said, because all present members
! of the provost guard are well known
| in Des Moines. and their work would
be of very. little help to the major.
Chief Of Police Alb Day says he will
welcome such an investigation and
would lend the military officials all
possible assistance within command.

| we want TO know about it," Day said
when asked about the probable vice

The police department will welcome
an investigation that would tend to
rid the city of its bad characters and
| make Des Moines a cleaner city.
IF there is any possible way to i'm
prove conditions here we want TO
know it. and military officials will find
us more than willing to cooperate
with them"
