''Of6cers'' Engage Young
Women in Conversation
as Mates Follow and Ar
rest Them as Offenders
Many Disapprove of Trick
Believe Olive Drab Regarded
as Mark of Centility by
Many Innocent Victims

When Miss Lillian Cohen and Miss
Sally Goblin were arrested by Detective
John P. Gunson, charged with disord-
erly conduct, they had been talking, &C
cording to the testimony given by Gun
son in court, to two men "who were
dressed in uniforms of United States
army second lieutenants."
The young women, it will be remem-
bered, were found guilty by Magistrate
Mancuso, appealed, and were released
and exonerated by Judge Rosalsky.
1t was learned yesterday that men,
bers of the vice squad, commanded by
Inspector Mcdonald, have made it q
practice for some time past to go two
by two about the city at night dis
guised as officers of the army or navy
In this manner the number OF arrests
has been increased.
The method is as follows: The po-
licemen in military uniform stroll
along followed by two plain clothes
men, The pair in multi wait until
their comrades in uniform have en-
gagged young women in conversation.
Then the plain clothes men approach.
Spoke to Uniformed Men
In the case of Misses Goblin and
Cohen, Detective Gunson testified:
"At point midway of the block be-
tween Forty third and Forty fourth
streets Con Broadway saw them stop
and engage in conversation with two
men walking north and who were
dressed in uniforms of United States
army second lieutenants"
That corresponds exactly to 8
description of regular vice squad prac-
tice.

starting a conversation with the wom-
en-, ask the men in uniform:
"Do you know these women?"
If the men in uniform answer, "No,'
the women are arrested, and the mas
querading detectives go on their way.
Gunson's testimony read: II said to
the army officers, DO you know these
women?' They said, NO."
Some Disapprove Trap
1t is not known how long men of the
Vice Squad have been following this
practice. Early in May Commissioner
Enright ordered the old Bureau of In
formation closed to the public, put up
grated doors at its entrance and quar-
tered his Vice Squad there, with lock-
ers to hold their costumes.
Even in Headquarters itself this
scheme is not meeting with entire ap-
prevail. One who has long been con-
nected with police affairs argued last
night that the hospitality accorded to
officers Of the army and navy during
the war and the friendliness with
which they were received still holds
Many women, it was pointed out, who
would never think of speaking to a
civilian will engage in conversation
with an army or navy officer. believing
that the uniform he wears is badge
of gentility.
Grand Jury to Investigate
AS an aftermath of the case of
Misses Goblin and Cohen the grand
jury will begin next month to investi-
gate the methods Of arrest and con"
viction for disorderly conduct ow
being employed by the police and magi-
strates. 1t is probable that Chief
Magistrate McAdoo and Magistrate
Mancuso will be called as witnesses.
Either the regular or an additional
grand jury will consider the situation
The regular jury will be impanclled on
July by Judge Mcintyre, who for the
last two years has been violent
opponent of the procedure used when
women are arrested for disorderly
conduct.

TOSEPH RAGAS, Filipino, employed

on piano. A few days ago, with the
wedding plans all made, Ragas said he
gave Miss Decker 5000 to buy furniture,
and also two diamond rings which were
to be cleaned for use at the wedding.
Next day, he continued, he called
with his best man, Peter Buenaventura,
but there was no wedding. Instead, ac-
cording to his story, his prospective
mother-in-law. threw him and the best
man out of the house. The $500 did
not follow and the only thing connected
with the rings was two pawn tickets,
which, he said, were thrown to him.
After Buenaventura had corroborated
Ragas's testimony, the magistrate held
Miss Decker for the grand jury.
