WOMENS POLICE
 BUREAU PLANNED
Mrs. Murdock Seeks Better ment of Women Prison- / : CTS In City Jail

Establishment of a woman's po- lice bureau. with woman in charge and four or five assistants under her. responsible directly to the commits sioner of public safety. Is being con- templated by the city commission. Mrs. W. L. Murdoch, of the League of Women Voters, who has been working for this result for nearly a year, declared last night that the commission had recognized the wis dom of such move and that only lack of funds. under the budget pro- vision for the public safety depart ment delayed the organization of such a bureau.
 Mrs. Murdoch has been most active in obtaining woman police officor for the department. Sho declared that she deeply appreciated the CO., operation shown by the commission. Commissioner John Taylor. of the de- pertinent of public safety. was es- Ipecially commended for his help in getting the new order of things es- tablished. isNT ft,t3A
 Tt is highly essential that the women prisoners be placed where they will not come into contact with men officers said Mrs. Murdoch. The city commi ssioners have been quick to appreciate this fact and have promised to take steps toward the carly formation of a woman's bureau of police, directly under the commits sioner of public safety.
 "Of course, such action is bound to come slowly. Organization of the bureau will come by degrees. 1t Is likely. I feel confident that wom- ans police bureau will become fact within comparatively short space of time."
 Mrs Murdoch made it plain that she was not criticising the city com missioners.
 Many complaints have been regis tered recently about the condition of the jail. especially in the woman's S department. Criticisms are based on reports of Dr. Glenn Andrews, state prison inspector, who does not hesi- tate to condemn conditions every time he visits the city Jail.
 At the present time women prison CTS are subject to the gaze of per sons in many offices of the city hall. No curtains are provided for the windows, screens are unknown and the door between the woman's de- partment and the mems department in the jail Is one of iron bars
 Women prisoners are now lodged In the hospital ward of the city jail. This is entirely inadequate. 1t Is said. It is located on the second floor of the Jail building. behind the city hall.
 Delegations from various clubs will probably visit the commission in the near future to ask that the changes be made with little delay as pos sible.
