Mayor Quotes
Bugas on Riot,
Praises Police

a review Of the June n race
riot, including a defense of the
conduct of the Detroit police de-
was the main topic Of
six campaign addresses delivered
last night by Mayor Jeffries.
The mayor spoke to the Detroit
Police LieutenantS' and Sergeants'
Association. the Belgian-American
Businessmen. the Belgian-Amer-
lean Ladies Auxiliary, the Harper
Van Dyke Women's Auxiliary and
the Lutnia Singing Society and
over radio station WXYZ.
The police meeting address was
non-political.
There il no subject In this
campaign on which there has
been more buncOmbe talked and
written than the Detroit race
riot" the mayor safd, "and tho
part played in IL by your police
department.
RIOT A DISGRACE
"The riot was disgrace. But
the conduct Of the police Depart
ment, by and large, was mag
nificent. For that. you don't
hive TO take my word. We have
IL on the authority Of John G.
Bugas, head Of the FBI I'm De-
troit. He Is, not running for
office, is not interested in poll
tics and has no axes to grind.
This is what Mr.. Bugas
stated publicly; The police de-
partment did "A magnificent and
heroic job under circumstances
that for a time rlvaled those OF
GuadalcanaI, Bataan and NORTH
Africa
THAT Is the statement Of an
FBI man whose business II law
enforcement. IL II quite at vari-
ance with statements I'm the
Negro press and statements OF
Negro leaders. They have spread
smoke screen for the DELHI
crate purpose of misrepresent-
ing the truth"
The mayor sketched briefly the
progress Of the riot from its out
break on Belle Isle until the ar.
rival Of federal troops.
WELL BE READY"
During the first IL hours Of
the rioting, 1917 whites were In
iured, as compared to rs
Negroes. Seventy-two per cent
were white.
Negroes started the riot.
But MANY Negro leaders at
tempt to shift the responsibility
10 the Detroit police depart
ment.
There Is not a police depart
ment in the United States that
would be OF adequate strength
TO handle a serious race riot
with its own force.
"If there Is a next time, We
will be ready, and 1t will DO
mighty tough on hoodlums."

A front of the leaning gray gate,
and when Sally had paid him
and watched his ancient wagon dis
appear in dust around the bend of
the road, she picked up her small
suitcase and went slowly up the
walk. 1--WE got to tell them right

But then the door opened and
Tommy came bounding down the

scared inside the house, shouting at
Mother and Dad. Hey. look!

wonderful tribe had descended on
her, each intent on winning the first
hug.
Seventeen-year-old Tommy won
it. of course. Stepping back. with
smudge of Sally's hpstick on his
chin, he said, where's that guy
you're hitched to? I've got swell

1t was Mother who said, finally,
Where is your Bill, Sally?"
SALLY'S smile damned food OF
tears as she remembered her resolu-
ton. All the way up on the train.
with the wheels clicking and the
trees blurring past, she had dreaded
this moment. All the way from the
village depot, with Abner Truden's
voice buzzing at her. You've got to
make a quick. clean break!' she'd
thought frantically. But in the face
of their gaiety. her resolve fed.
"He II had some work to clean
up at the Office" she faltered. Hell

But Bill wouldn't be up later.
Finding the house empty. he would
know at once where she had gone.
and why she had left without ex-
planation. He would know that she
had found him out.
Alone at last in her room, Sally
sat on the bed and stared miserably
at the familiar yellow walls, the
worn curtains. the green, rolling
Vermont hills that made every win
dow picture frame. She heard again
the honeyed voice of Mrs. Went

A place in the night-club district,
with some woman" And Bill had
told her he was working late at the
Office.
She recalled another night, two
weeks later. A college friend of his,
just passing through the city, had
phoned at ten-thirty; hadn't seen
Bill in years. and with an hour to
spare between trains. She had tele-
phoned the Office. No one had an
swered. Bill had been working late"
that night, too.
Then - yesterday. She had not
planned it. In fact, she had retreated
to the best of her ability and was not
sure now whether Bill had seen her
or not. He had been working late
again - so he said - and she had
spent the evening at Helen Hack
ett's. Walking home. past the Gray
lawn Apartments, she had seen a
cab pull up.
Bill got out of it, calamity Offer
ing his arm to a dark, attractive
woman, before Sally recognized him.
For a moment she had stood utterly
still, unable to move. Perhaps he had
recognized her. He had seemed to

At home. she had waited two in
terminable hours for him: then.

her to the station. Now she was here.
And despite all her resolutions, she
had not told her family the truth.
Perhaps tomorrow
But tomorrow was no better. They
had 50 much to tell her. About the
farm. About James horde of boy
friends, and Mothers sewing for the
Red Cross. Tommy. an honor stu

peted for a scholarship to the uni
versity. but had missed out. She
questioned him about it.
He was sublimely Indifferent.

and help Dad run the farm. He can
use me, since he hurt his back"
She looked aghast at her father.

But she looked at him hard. won-

ence seemed overdone.
They talked of Bill. of the times
they'd had with him at Thanksgiv-
ing and Christmas. They we're crazy
about Bill, Sally realized. They
thought her the luckiest girl in the
world. Imagine it - going alone to
the city to try for job, and less than
a year later being married to Bill
Benson!
Now they were planning all the
things they would do when he ar
rived. And at every mention of his

driving her deeper into retreat.
