reception 10 the Commander in Chief
after the war and Gen. Alexander
rode him in the review of the nth
Division. Captain knew the crowd
was cheering him and he was just as
proud as the humans in the depart

n regiment from Jersey City and q
company from Yonkers. One thou
sand of the citizen reserves in Khaki
also marched.

assembled at the City Hall before the
parade started and were reviewed by
Mayor Hylan, who also delivered a
speech. He thanked the police of the
metropolitan area outside New York
for their cooperation with the local
police.

the District Attorney of this county"
said the Mayor, policemen are no
longer compelled to submit to the
insults of criminals they arrest
q
few hours later and laugh in their
faces. The District Attorney is
hustling the criminals along to where
they belong-in prison"
