Charles H. Van Deusen,
Chief of Detectives, Oma-
ha, Neb.:
My dear Mr.. Van Deu-
sen: In view of the many
promiscuous shootings and
killings in the last few
months, it is my opinion
that all men apprehended
carrying loaded revolvers
be charged with a peniten-
tiary offense and be bound
over to the district court
under bonds of not less
than $1,000. | shall so in
struct MY men, and kindly
ask that you do likewise.
And, in this connection,
beg to advise you that it is
a police officers right and
duty when apprehending
any criminal charged with
a felony, to take his life, if
necessary, and, therefore,
suggest that you advise
your men to take no un-
necessary chances, but
whenever the criminal
shows resistance, shoot to
kill. Very truly yours,
HENRY BEAL,
County Attorney.
