|LewisJ. Valentine, "a,
Former New York
Police Head, Dies
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-Lewis j.
Valentine, 64, who came back
from "exile" in a remote Brook
lyn precinct to give New York
criminals their toughest years as
la hard-hitting police commits
sioner, died today at Long Island
College Hospital after a long ILL
ness.
Mr.. Valentine resigned as commits
sioner September 6, 1945, after IL
years of service.
At the request of Gen. Douglas
Macarthur he went to Japan short
ly afterward to aid in the reorgani-
zation of the civilian police system
there. On his return he resumed
his radio program "Gangbusters,"
which he continued until recently.
A native of Brooklyn, he joined the
New York police force in 1908, at the
age of 81. For 10 years he pounded
a beat, then did good job on the
"shoof1y" squad, routing grafters
from the ranks of his fellow police
men.
His work won him promotions
and many an enemy.
Brushes with Tammany Hall led to
demotions, bitter personal disap-
pointments and eventual "exile" to
the fringes of Brooklyn.
From this relative obscurity, Mayor
Fiorello La Guardia picked him in
1884 to become $12,500-a-year COM
missioner of New York's 18,000-
man police force. In his first SIX
years in Office he fired 300 police
men, rebuked 5000, fined 1900.
He was even harder on crooks.
Now famous at police headquar-
ters is his remark when a natty,
we'll -groomed criminal was put in
the lineup:
Hes the best dressed man in this
room. Don't be afraid to muss 'em
up. Blood should be smeared all
over that velvet collar"
Under Mr.. Valentine and with
the aid of Mayor La Guardia and
then District Attorney Thomas E.
Dewey, slot-machine gangs, gam
bling rings, white slavers and med
ding politicians were largely either
driven out of the city or under
cover.
In March, 1885, when Mr.. Valen-
tine was pushing one of his biggest
anti-racketeering drives, his Brook
lyn home was put under police guard
after an anonymous telephone caller
threatened to kidnap two of his
Miriam, then 16, and
Ruth, 18.

SURRENDERED" on an easy rap, Mr..
Valentine declared, MY only regret
is that he is not being carried into
