Police Needs Doubled
In Wartime, Study Of
British Effort Shows
F. B. |. Report Says U. S.
Would Have 100000 if
English Plan Were Used
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Americas State, local and county
police forces, with a normal aggre-
gate of 10000 men, might be dou-
bled in wartime if this country fol-
lowed Great Britain's home defense
pattern, Federal Bureau Of Investi-
cation officials disclosed yesterday.
The United Kingdom found early
in the conflict that large numbers
of additional policemen were needed
for such duties ase directing AFRAID
precautions, evacuating danger
areas, reporting damage to utilities,
enforcing blaCkouts and conveying
military units through local areas
where signposts and other identifi-
cation marks had been removed.
Other special duties include evac-
uating civilians, policing air-raid
shelters, special guard work and
prevention of looting.
British Work Described.
How Britain met the eXtraordi-
nary police problems of the last two
years is described in detail in
publication prepared by the F. B. I.
for distribution to enforcement
agencies throughout the United
States. Two officials of the bureau
spent several months in England
last winter making an exhaustive
study of emergency problems.
Among other things, they learned
that London's "bobbies" for the first
time are being supplied with pistols
and trained to use them.
At the outbreak of war, the Brit
ish already had detailed plans for
calling retired officers back into
police service and for recruiting
special constables, police war re-
serve officers and part-time volun-
teers.
Plans called for the employment
of $500 pensioners and 10000 spe-
cial constables in London, which
Evening star., 1941-07-17
had 10000 men in its metropolitan
police department in peacetime.
Wartime Training,

Wartime Training.
In Oxford, a city of $4,000 popu-
lation normally, the police force was
increased from SO to 143; in the
borough of Stratford, largely rural,
the number increased from 40 reg
ular officers to 81 full-time men
and 300 volunteers, and in Oxford
shire the county police force rose
from $50 officers to total of 1900.
British wartime police training as
reported by the F. B. I. includes:
Communications, aid to be given
at AFRAID incidents Tan incident"
includes the falling of a bomb,
use of gas masks, putting out in
eendiary bombs, first-aid practices,
decontamination of gas and pro-
lection against poison gas and ac-
ton to be taken in such emergencies
as the falling of barrage balloon
or the landing of parachute troops.
J. Edgar Hoover, F. B. I. director,
instituted last year a program of
making defense policing informa-
ton available generally through the
