VeStlGate the question as to whether
or not force of women Is useful ad,
junct to q police organization. Chief
in other large cities in Eng.
land have recently expressed them
selves as opposed to the appointment
of women to the force. 1t must be
added, in fairness, that these views
have come from cities which have
had no experience with woman police
Police Have No Guns.
The London policeman carries no
gun. When I asked sergeant why
this is so, he replied that he could do
enough damage with his stick. The
baton is somewhat shorter than that
carried by members of the Washing
ton force and is carried in the hip
pocket. l pursued the inquiry fur
ther and asked ranking officers of
each of the forces il their men might
not, sometimes at least. save their own
lives If furnished with automatics.
The answer from the metropolitan of
ficer was that there had been one in
stance in nine years in which it was
at all likely that had the policeman
been armed he could have saved him
self. And the chief officer of the city,
OF over 40 years service. recalled only
one instance in that period, adding
that the men who did the fatal shoot
ing came from America.

Foreigners OF anti-social tendencies
know this and govern themselves &C.
cordingly.
1t is difficult to conceive of more
independent administration than that
of the commissioner of police of the
metropolis, which is the title of Sir
William L. F.. Norwood. in charge of
the metropolitan police. He is ap-
pointed by the King, on recommends
ton of the secretary of state, and
holds office until he reaches the retire
ment age. The London County Coun-
ell has nothing to do with his appoint.
ment or his tenure OF office. Likewise,
the commissioner is in no manner sub
serVient to members of Parliament.
The commissioner has four assistant
commissioners in charge. respectively,
of the blue force uniformed men).
traffic, criminal investigation Scotland
Yard and legal matters. Thus it is
that the Metropolitan force is not only
wholly divorced from politics and not
in any way affected by political
changes, bat also has it's own complete
and compact administrative organiza
tion. The single obligation of the COM
missioner and the p 900 men under
him is the enforcement of the law.
NIdUc intensive OtUuS.
With a general knowledge of police
systems~.in the United States and an
intimate knowledge of the Organiza-
ton. personnel and functioning of the
Metropolitan Police of the District of
Columbia, l have just spent week
in an intensive study and critical OBJ
servation of the police departments OF
London. I have had audiences with
the commissioner Ut police Of the me-
tropolis and the acting commissioner
of the city police, talked with officers
and men by the score and visited
many or the police stations.
For hours have travelled the streets
of London-sometimes alone and at
watching traffic control and observ.
ling the personnel of the two forces.
And / have discussed the police with
citizens and with the police reporters
on thea large daily papers.
/ believe that from every point of
view London is wonderfully pOliced. 1t
may we'll be that certain practices,
such, for example, as the housing
will never find favor in the minds of
the American people. Taken by and
large however. in the future develop
ment of the police system of the Cap
ital of the United States there should
be much food for thought in a study
OF the excellent system that has been
developed in the capital Of Great
Britain.
