NEED MORE cops IN PARIS

Paris-(By Maid Paris is suffer
ing from new crisis, crisis of
policemen, whose sufficient number
in the day as well as in the night
time makes people doubt whether
it is safe to be in Paris. The city
which is now more jammed during
the day than ever before, is more
deserted over night than during an
airplane bombardment in war time.
People who have to be out for
their business between midnight
and five o'clock in the morning, can
walk for miles without meeting a
single policeman.
Policemen are very hard to re-
cruit in France In Paris, owing to
the war; the effectives of the police
force were diminished and it has
not been possible to replace those
who did not return. Further, while
before the war, four or five hun
dred new policemen were sufficient
eevry year, there are needed today
900.
