Corruption Of Police
las New Jury Meets
BY the Associated Pres.

The former grand jury which

meath the surface"
Judge Sherbow recommended

Judge also mentioned these
things:

Jules which police must learn to
cope with"
2. The spread Of gambling and
racket activities into counties
around Baltimore creates a prob
lem which must be handled By
the legislative council. 1t can
treat the several Jurisdictions as
a unit.
8. Washington remains the
major source of narcotics supplies
for Baltimore. The capital should
be cleaned UP as an example for
the rest of the Nation.
The judge said that "it is sad
indeed to have to say publicly
that Washington, the Nations
Capital, is a major source Of dope
supply for nearby Baltimore.
District Cleanup Advocated.
II hope the District Of Columbia
Government will set an example
for the rest of the country and
clean up this pestilence. instead
of helping provide the means for
it to spread"
The grand jury report on police
corruption contains charges of
an extremely grave and serious
character" the Judge said.
Where corruption exists in the
police department, 1t must be
brought to light and stamped out.
"It is q cancerous growth that
