:Cited by Chief Murray

tracing criminals to Wash
ington."
Chief Murray strongly de-
Tended his policy of employing
two uniformed policemen on
"stake-ou of business places
likely TO be robbed. He added
the men should be stationed
inside.
He reiterated his firm stand
that the best means Of crime
prevention Is to have more
uniformed foot patrolmen on
the streets.
Chief Murray indicated that,
while ideal" standards for
adequate policing Of Washing
ton would require about $40
more men than the present
authorized 2.500-man force, he
would personally be happy to
get the $50 additional men re-
quested In the District budget
for the year beginning next
July /.
