it? Well, the Mats finally took one,
didn't they?
There was a screech of brakes
and a car stopped. Two regular
policemen got out, turned their
flashlight on the pair. In a little
while, Mr. Hipsley's chance friend
was trying, not very successfully, to
explain it all at the station house
Days later the man stood in court
and heard himself sentenced to 800
days for attempted HOUSEKEEPING
And, in passing sentence, Judge
George D. Nelson commended Aux
iliary Policeman Hipsley for his
alertness and presence of mind.
220 Auxiliaries in Precinct.
There are. in this precinct. more
than 220 auxiliaries They have
captain, two lieutenants and four
sergeants. About so of the aux
iliaries are colored.
Policemen J. A. Gabrys and R. L.
Harding, in charge of auxiliary rec
ords and duties, have devised ITS
emergency posts. There are many
important points in the precinct
the Navy Yard. Gallinger Hospital,
the District Jail Just across the
Anacostia River is the Naval Air
Station.
Capt. Morgan and his regulars
are particularly appreciative of the
setup of Gallinger Hospital, where
DR.. Edgar A. Bocock superintendent.
and j. r. Gardner head a force Of
is post auxiliaries. who have de-
vised an effective system for con-
troll and aid in any emergency.
On recent night the Navy Yard
raid alarm was set off for practice.
Thinking it might be a real raid. a
large number of auxiliaries nearby
jumped to their posts. 1t was some
time before they knew what had
happened, but they carried out their
orders coolly and afterWard were
thanked for their vigilance
The emergency posts under No. 5
are so arranged that no auxiliary
has more than three blocks to pa
troll. Whenever possible these posts
are near the mems homes.
Arrests Not Main Job.
The arrests that AuXiliarieS Ran
dolph and Hipsley brought about
were cited to show what Washington
volunteer policemen can do. But
the others in that precinct and sew
eral thousand more in the other
II precincts, many yet to book their
drst prisoners. are performing du-
ties no less efficiently.
Their work, as Supt Edward J.
Kelly and other high officers of the
department point out. is not to be
judged by the number of arrests
they make. but by how faithfully
and intelligently they do the pre-
cautionary work-largely routine
which is so essential III the protec-
tion of their community.
When some neighborhood with a
lot of crime suddenly starts behav-
ing itself, the regulars know their
volunteer aides are doing good
job. even if they haven't brought

Maryland IA Draft
Supply Exhaustion
Seen in September
Col. Stonwood Expects
Call Eventually to Men
Married Before War
BY the Associated Press.

BY inc Associate Press.
BALTIMORE. Md, June 27.-Col
Henry c. Stanwood, State director
of selective service. predicted today
that Maryland's supply of la men
would be exhausted in September.
Col. Stanwood said, however. that
he could not estimate when the
Maryland draft boards would induct
men married before December 8.
l94l. He said men married since
that date or married to avoid in
duction were being indicted steadily
Face Call Eventually.
He added that he wanted to en-
phasize that the regrouping of ga
men into categories ordered by Con-
gress did not mean that married
men would never be called. He said
it just put the married men near
the bottom OF the list. but that they
might be called eventually and
should plan their affairs accord
ingly.
When the pool of la was ex-
hausted, he continued. the boards
would then call upon men deferred
because of financial dependents
other than a wife or children. They
are in the second category on the
congressional listing.
Col. Stanwood said draft boards
had been Instructed to sort their
registrants into the new groupings
at once. Until this was completed,
he added, he would not know when
the first group of men married be-
fore Pearl Harbor would get military
calls.
Worker Deferments.
The expected completion of IA
lists, he continued, would not affect
occupational deferments granted de-
fenSe workers.
Those defermentS were granted
for a specific time" he explained
when the deferment was granted,
it was an assurance to the employer
that he could count on the mans
services for a certain period of time.
We won't go back on that contract" !"
He said that even though local
boards were forced to dip into de-
ferred ranks by September, it would
not mean the end of deferment
extensions.
Col. Stanwood said employers
would be required to show that no
replacement for the deferred man
was available. Then he would ask
for and probably get an extension y

Asked to Cut Phone Use

The Board Of War Communica-
tions today formally requested Gov
ernment agencies as we'll as the
general public to reduce the use Of
telephones for both local and long
distance calls.
Reports to the board during re-
cent months. it was said, have
shown steady increase in the
number of calls in many parts OF
the country. with the result that
important talks relating to the war
effort often are delayed.
Letters addressed to telephone
companies requested that they con-
duct an educational, campaign. The

BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

OA@S
A good cop may not have a sixth
sense. but his five regular senses
are pretty keen. He often knows,
somehow-perhaps he can't tell you
why-that something's wrong.
James R. Randolph, colored. is an
auxiliary policeman, volunteer for
the duration, and he has another
policemen at No. precinct will tell
you he has the makings Of good
cop. Which, from them, is more
than perfunctory praise.
One day, two men were trundling
packages m a store truck down a
street. Nothing wrong with that, at
a glance. Surely they were on some
proper errand But Auxiliary Ofiicer
Randolph had a hunch all was not
as it seemed.
Sugar Thieves Captured.
He took a chance that his suSpi-
cion had basis. He stopped the
trucksters, asked them what they
had and where they were going
Looking little scornfully at Mr..
Randolph's partial uniform and his
badge, the men made some glib
reply. But 1t didn't satisfy the aux
ihary patrolman. He questioned
them more closely. They got little
confused. They didn't quit agree on
where they got the packages and
where they were taking them. Per-
haps. the officer suggested. they'd
better come to the station house and
tell the lieutenant all about it.
Their cargo turned out to be 100
pounds OF sugar-precious stuff these
days. And it had been stolen from
Gallinger Hospital. The two sus-
poets. victims Of Mr.. Randolph's
justifably suspicious nature, were
held for trial
In the same precinct, situated at
Fifth and E streets Sc. and COM
manded by Capt. Joseph C. Morgan,
Auxiliary Policeman Charles Hipsley
was on duty one night when he
heard a crash of glass, then the
sound of . man running. Mr.. Hip
sley found the glass broken in side
door of store. Apparently the
burglar had been frightened away by
the noise he had made.
The auxiliary looked about the
vicinity carefully. He almost COL
lided with a man. The man quick
wittedly asked the officer for help
somebody had broken a glass door.
Detxins Suspect by Ruse.
Mr.. Hipsley pretended to suspect
nothing the man said. They'd call
the station. the auxiliary explained,
and put them on the alert. Wouldn't
the stranger take him back to the
store, and they'd find the phone?
The stranger could hardly refuse.
They put in the call. Mr.. Hipsley's
new acquaintance allowed that he'd
be going. But Officer Hipsley told
him, soothingly, not to be in a hurry.
Maybe they'd catch that prowler.
How did he like Washington? Nice
night for the time of year. wasn't

Plan 10 Reduce
Tax on Payroll
Wins Support
Federation Approves
MeGehee Bill; Urges
Welfare Changes

The Federation of Citizens Asso-
citation last night added It's support
to the McGehee bill to reduce the
unemployment compensation tax on
employers and extend the benefit
payment
Through its Executive Board, the
group also asked that administration
of public welfare be centered in the
Board of Public Welfare rather than
in the Commissioners as Is proposed
in a pending bill.
The McGehee measure would re-
duce from 81 per cent to 5 per cent
the tax on employers for unemploy-
ment compensation and would ex-
tend benefits to $50 for 20 weeks as
a means Of keeping the excessive
surplus, now some $4,000 900, from
growing.
Board Changes Urged.
In recommending administration
of welfare by the board, the fedora
ton, however, asked that board
members be named by the Municipal
Court of Appeals instead of by the
Commissioners as is now the case
and that the names Of nominees be
published 10 days before actual ap-
pointment. Under the federation
plan the board would have power to
appoint its own director and ad-
minister its own budget.
The proposal by Representative
Paddock, Republican of Illinois. that
the District be given a delegate in
Congress as it had for a few years
in the early 1905 was indorsed by
the executive board as step toward
closer contact between the people
Of the District and those who govern
them
Ask End Of Gag Rule"
The members urged the Commits
sioners to abandon the so-called
gag rule" on municipal department
heads to permit facts in the public
interest to be made available to
civic organizations
An immediate blanket deferment
Of police and firemen from military
service was asked. The Federation
also asked no change in the police
retirement provisions for the dura-
ton
1t opposed free transportation for
public building guards.
Clifford H. Newell was named
chairman of special committee
to work with Hugh Keiser in arrang-
ing details of Federation outdoor

Another Attempt Fails

tea thieves s453 and a third attempt
failed.
Charles L. Cumberland, manager

Thieves stole $160 from a seed
store in the 600 block of E street
