MRS. LOFT RULES
WOMAN'S PRECINCT
Mrs. Mary Hamilton Trans
ferred to Commissioners
Headquarters.

Mrs. George w. Loft, Honorary
Deputy Police Commissioner and dollar
a year woman, now reigns supreme as
head of the woman's precinct, as Mrs.
Mary Hamilton, director of the pre-
cinct and second in command. has been
transferred to Police Commissioners
Enrights headquarters.
Mr. Hamilton organized the new
woman's precinct and had been in full
charge until the recent appointment Of
Mrs. Loft. There have been reports that
there was some sort of discord between
the women. but only last week, when
they were asked about the supposed diff
ferences both declared in each others
presence that there was nothing except
perfect harmony thereabouts.
When Mrs. Loft took office in the
new precinct, which Is In the old West
Thirty-seventh street station, she was
assigned to a room up two flights Of
stairs. Mrs. Hamilton occupied a neat
little office on the ground floor close
to the entrance and was always In an
advantageous position to receive callers.
Mrs. Loft insisted that she should have
attractive quarters on the lower floor.
and the matter was put UP to Police
Commissioner Enright
The transfer of Mrs. Hamilton. who
is a thorough policewoman. recalls the
stormy scene between the Police Com
missioner and Mrs. Ellen O'Grady when
she resigned with a verbal artillery
barrage which nearly razed the roof
at Police Headquarters. Mrs. Ham,
ilton will have an office of her own
at Police Headquarters and will be
assigned to work among policewomen
throughout the metropolitan district
which does not include-unofficially OF
course-the women's precinct.
IT was surprised at the order send
ing me to Police Headquarters" said
Mrs. Hamilton. II presume the Com
missioner believes the worN or the force
will be improved by having me assigned
to the new task. have completed my
work at the women's precinct, which 1
organized in March and brought TO It's
present high standing of efficiency"
II presume the Commissioner trans
ferred Mrs. Hamilton for the same
reason which influences all his de-
cisions-the Improvement of the force" !"
commented Mrs. Loft. II did not ask
for Mrs. Hamiltons transfer. I could
not have had her removed without pre-
ferring charges and this did not do
