PAROLE SYSTEM
 BEING DENOUNCED
New York Police Commissioner
 Opposes Policy

New York. March 5 Fl-Aholl. ton Of the parole board and also Of surely companies which bond criminals. except In rare cases of first offenders, was recommended yesterday by Police Commissioner Mclaughlin.
 MT. Mclaughlin, in addressing tho New York state chamber Of commerce, said he advocated these measures because the crime wave in New York had created an emergency justifying the action. H. said that the bonding com. pan'cs which supply surety for men held on criminal charges should be compelled by legislation to with draw from this field If they do not voluntarily withdraw.
 Perhaps 1t might be permissible to allow surety bail for the first offender" he said. but 1t never should be done for a second or a :hird. II you knew. as I do, tho ease with which the many hold-up men captured in the last few months have been able to get bail you would agree with me"
 Discussing the parole system, he also denounced the sympathtzers with criminals.
 'I told you that I did not want your sympathy" he said, but l now ask you not to give it to the criminal who does not deserve 1t. have been present at the daily line- up at headquarters every day since I took office and with one or two exceptions I have not seen man there that you business men would give a job to for five dollars a week.
 Five out of every six of them have criminal records They have chosen to be criminals for the same reason that you men have picked out your vacations, namely to make money. Why all this talk of parole and restoring them to their positions in society when in 99 cases out of 100 they have never had any?
 Just as many institutions were suspended during war emergency. l think the function of the parole board should be suspended in this emergency of crime whose eX- istence no one could dare deny"
