Reserve Plan
For District
Police Raped

The proposed mobilization of
a District Police Reserve Corps
here met with a mixed reaction
yesterday from members of the

panel.
Deputy Police Chief Lorraine
T. Johnson told the group that
under the proposed legislation
mobilizing the corps, reserve
policemen would always be &C
companied by regular police
men while on duty and the re-
Servists would have no author
ity to make arrests.
George E. c. Hayes said that
he was afraid that putting a
man in a police uniform on
the street without giving him
the right to make an arrest
might just make things worse. I"
He also said that he was
afraid that a rash action by a
reserve policeman could bring
discredit on the whole police
force.
However. Nathaniel j. Ely,
panel chairman, said he was
confident that the Police De-
partment would select only
people of high caliber for the
reserve corps. I certainly don't
believe these reServists would
act like vigilantes."
Mr.. Ely, who said the panel
had been asked by the District
Bar Association to express an
opinion on the legislation,
named a three-man committee
headed by Mr.. Hayes to study
the matter further.
Mr.. Ely also named a three
man committee to study the
question of whether civilians
