SUPERVISORS CHANGE
ATTITUDE ON POLICE

Boards of supervisors in a number
of Michigan counties have gone on
record at the January sessions In fav
or of the continuance OF the State Pc
lice force. In addition to the board
Of Macomb county, which rescinded
former resolution adverse to the State
Police and replaced 1t by a favorable
one at a December session, action OF
the same kind was taken in January
by the boards in Kent, Wexford and
Osceola counties. In Calhoun county
also a more favorable attitude was
shown. In most of the counties where
resolutions adverse to the State Pc
lice were passed by the supervisors,
organizations Of citizens have passed
resolutions favoring the constabulary
and petitions in behalf of the State
Police have 3een circulated by prom
inent residents.

SIX MONTHS
RECORD SHOWS
POLICE WORK
MICHIGAN TROOPERS MAKE
MORE ARRESTS IN HALF YEAR
THAN EVER BEFORE.
Development Of Constabulary Indicat
cd BY Variety Of Different
Services Performed.

Major Robert e. Marsh, command
ing the Michigan State Police, ha
made public the record Of his depart
ment for the six months ending De
cember 81, 1920. This shows tina
| 1870 arrests were made and 989 con
vietions secured in the six months al
compared with 1,046 arrests and IS:
convictions In the entire year ending
June 80, 1920. Better organization o.
the force and more widespread &C
tivity throughout the state accounts
for increase In arrests and convic
tions.
1t has been the aim Of Major Marsh
to train the State Police as a body Of
men to cooperate with state and
county officials In law enforcement
work and to supply trained police Of
f1cers for service In the rural com
munities. Uniform law enforcement
throughout the state, with no favorit
ism, has been the ideal sought.
That Michigan, outside OF the larger
cities, ranks better than other states IN
the matter Of killings Is evidenced BY
the fact that only three murderers were
arrested during the six months. There
were six bank robJers arrested and
one highwayman. Four men were
held for rape and four others for i'm
moral acts. Burglars arrested mum
bered ten while 46 were taken for
grand larceny, 20 for simple larceny
and others for pocketpicking. obtain
ing money under false pretenses and
other crimes against property. Ma
turally, there were numerous arrests
for drunkenness, disorderliness and
disturbing the peace. One escaped con
vict was recaptured. Gambling &C
counted for 55 arrests. Prohibition
law violations resulted in 337 arrests
In fact, there was hardly a crime
on the statute books for which arrests
were not made by the troopers. The
motor laws caused more than 500 ar
rests alone.
Instances where aid was given local
officials totalled 4S8 and assistance
was given in 81 automobile accidents
The troopers helped 80 times In fight
ing forest fires and % times in mis-
cellaneous fires. In rs instances as
sistance was rendered to state de
partments. A total Of 3,144 complaints
were investigated.
Guard duty was undertaken at "a
fairs in the state. Eighteen missing
persons were found, Of whom two
were adults. Twenty-six automobiles
were recovered for owners Thirty
one dogs were killed. In gambling
raids 26 roulette wheels. 81 slot ma
chimes two faro sets, five Klondyke
boards four chuck-a-luck outfits and
a quantity OF crap and poker devices
and dice were seized.
A total of 271,000 miles OF patrol
duty is reported. Stolen goods val
ued at $7S,S21 were recovered. Fines
imposed amounted to $53,S35.93 and
costs assessed were $5,526.6s. Eighty
four stills were seized and 1852 gal
Ions of liquor. In addition to the mo.
tor law yiolators arrested, warnings
were given in 2.17S cases. the aim be-
ing to make Michigan highways safe.
