"Efficient <strong>Police</strong>Make a City of<strong>Peace</strong>"A <strong>Police</strong> News<strong>and</strong> EducationalMagazine(Established 1922)(Trade Maik Copyright)VOL. XXII NOVEMBER, <strong>1945</strong>No. 425th Annual Convention of the State<strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong>' AssociationBy OPIE L. WARNERThe Twenty-fifth <strong>and</strong> first post-war convention of the<strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> of the State of California, held in Salinas,October 8, 9 <strong>and</strong> 10 was the most successful ever heldin the history of the Association.The splendid program dealing with after war problems,the excellent arrangements made by Chief George C.Weight, of Salinas, the host of the meetings, for the housingof the visitors <strong>and</strong> the entertainment afforded themore than 250 men <strong>and</strong> women who gathered in thefamed Monterey County scat, have never been excelledduring the past 23 years.With but one exception members of the Associationcontributed papers <strong>and</strong> addresses to the program, whichdealt with subjects in which law enforcement officers arevitally interested.The convention was called to order on the morning ofOctober 8, at 10 o'clock, by President Charles W. DuhIca of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>, <strong>and</strong> after the preliminaries of theopening session were disposed of the meeting got down tothe serious business of discussing <strong>and</strong> acting on mattersthat are now present, which in the future will he magnified,<strong>and</strong> a few more added.William Schoeppe was appointed to assist Secretary-Treasurer James T. Drew in h<strong>and</strong>ling the mass of workpiled oil shoulders of that faithful officer.Chief Corby of Kings County was appointed as an assistantto Sergeant At Arms Sheriff Daniel C. Murphy of<strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>.The presentation of the colors was made by three mem -bers of the Salinas <strong>Police</strong> Department, <strong>and</strong> with thepledge of allegiance to the flag <strong>and</strong> the singing of the NationalAnthem, President Dullea called on Mayor GeorgeC. Taylor, who in a short, but sincere speech, welcomedthe peace officers to Salinas <strong>and</strong> said Salinas was honoredto have this, its second meting held in the city as the firstafter the end of World War II.Chief Weight followed by echoing the Mayor's sentiments.<strong>and</strong> said he <strong>and</strong> his officers had done everythingthey could to assure the success of the convention, he thenintroduced prominent men present, including District AttorneyAnthony Brazil <strong>and</strong> Sheriff Alex H. Borges.In replying to the addresses of the Mayor <strong>and</strong> Chief of<strong>Police</strong>, President Dullea said that the members of the Associationrealized the great responsibilities Salinas assumedin holding the convention, with all the housing <strong>and</strong> foodproblems that have endured since the war started. Hethanked them as well as all citizens of the busy little cityfor the plans that were made for the annual meet.Then he made the annual President's address <strong>and</strong> report,a full account of it is to he found on another page of thisedition.Appointment of committees followed with the followingmade chairman of these units:Chief Earl Dierking of Vallejo—Credentials.Former Sheriff John Steckter of Napa—Auditing.Captain of Inspectors Bernard McDonald of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>—Resolutions.Chief Special Agent Richard Hood, FBI. of Los Angeles—Memorial.Chief Alex<strong>and</strong>er McAllister of Sacramento—Nominating.William Schoeppe, National Auto Theft Bureau, <strong>San</strong><strong>Francisco</strong>—Membership.The President read a letter from Chief Harold Vogelsang,of Stockton, second vice president, resigning hisposition as an officer, due to the press of official dutieswhich he said would continue until after ,1947, duringwhich year he would he president of the Association. Hisresignation was accepted with regret.The afternoon session opened with an address by GoveriorEarl \Varren, who since he Joined the Associationwhen in the District Attorney's office in Alameda, hasnot missed any annual meeting. He was given a royalwelcome. His speech will be found on another page ofthis <strong>Journal</strong>.He was followed by R. Lee Ste. Fluere, deputy LaborCommissioner of <strong>San</strong>ta Barbara, whose topic was "Relationof Legal Employment to Juvenile Delinquency." He
-Page 4POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>told of how close peace officers of his county worked withthe men under him, <strong>and</strong> recounted instances of the youngboys <strong>and</strong> girls being rescued from work that was apt tocause them to fall by the wayside.Secretary-Treasurer James T. Drew made his annualreport, <strong>and</strong> showed the association was in a healthy financialcondition <strong>and</strong> that during the year 40 new membershad been added to the membership roll, bringing it up to572.Chief E. Raymond Cato, of California Highway Patrol,selected as his subject Our Post War Traffic Problems."In introducing the speaker Chief Dullea said traffic wasone of the most important subjects to every police officerin California.Chief Cato stated that the death toll for Saturdays <strong>and</strong>Sundays is now running as high as 24, <strong>and</strong> on a three-dayholiday, as occurred on Labor Day this year, 45 peoplewere killed <strong>and</strong> 880 injured.The year <strong>1945</strong> will have the largest traffic accident tollin the history of California, Chief Cato predicted.Causes for this he said was the lifting of gasoline rationing<strong>and</strong> people with old cars who stayed home becausethey could not get necessary fuel to take long tripsare now taking them <strong>and</strong> instead of traveling at the warrate of speed of 35 miles an hour are speeding along thehighways at the legal state speed <strong>and</strong> even faster. Thentoo, he stated there is a lack of manpower for enforcementof the traffic laws.California with over 3,000,000 registered automobiles,the largest of any state in the Union, <strong>and</strong> a sure increaseof both pleasure <strong>and</strong> carrier cars to come, will have itstraffic accidents increased proportionately.Since gas rationing has stopped accidents have increased17 per cent, <strong>and</strong> in September the increase was 44per cent over the same month in 1944.Among the things that will tend to reduce accidents,Chief Cato says, is:To have more men on the highways patroling every centerof traffic;Better traffic engineering; on grades <strong>and</strong> crossings;Split lanes;Safety education;Driver training.A panel discussion followed the speech of Chief Cato.It was participated in by Chief Clifford E. Peterson of<strong>San</strong> Diego, Chief John D. Holstrom of Berkeley, DeputyChief Bernard Caldwell of Los Angeles, Chief Weight,Chief Howard Zink of Palo Alto, <strong>and</strong> Lieutenant LesterDivine of Oakl<strong>and</strong>.Chief Caldwell said the national trend for the month ofSeptember outdistanced the former month relative toauto accidents. Two hundred deaths occurred in thisstate in September.For <strong>1945</strong>, of the 11 western states, only one showed adecrease in fatal accidents, <strong>and</strong> that was Wyoming.Traffic control <strong>and</strong> accident prevention can only bedone, he declared, by hard work, careful planning, manpower<strong>and</strong> finance.Chief Peterson said while mechanical defects causesome accidents, they are not the general cause. It's theman behind the steering wheel who is responsible for thebig loss of lives, <strong>and</strong> the thous<strong>and</strong>s of injured.The man behind the wheel because of carelessness inobserving some simple rule, brings sorrow to many people.He cited an accident in September near <strong>San</strong>ta Rosa. Thedriver of a passenger car pulled out of the line of trafficwithout giving a h<strong>and</strong> signal. He hit a bus <strong>and</strong> five peoplewere killed by this apparently small law violation.Chief Weight said that glaring headlights cause manyaccidents in his terrain <strong>and</strong> faulty brakes contribute theirshare. He recommended that when a driver is cited for atraffic violation the brakes of his car should be examined.This will contribute to a reduction of accidents.Lieutenant Devine appeared for Captain Reedy of theOakl<strong>and</strong> <strong>Police</strong> Department. He gave an interesting discussionof the establishment of a clinic, to which trafficlaw offenders are ordered by city judges.His department keeps a master file of all arrests <strong>and</strong>citations <strong>and</strong> have worked out a table showing how manyare repeaters, <strong>and</strong> it shows that a majority of cases h<strong>and</strong>ledby Oakl<strong>and</strong> shows accident repeaters, who have ashigh as six arrests, are the cause of a major portion ofthe accidents.In the clinic the men brought in as a result of havingbeen mixed up in a traffic accident have been classified intosix groups:1. The driver who is a "don't care" <strong>and</strong> disregardsthe law <strong>and</strong> the rights of others.2. Physically h<strong>and</strong>icapped.3. Suffering from disease.4. Mental h<strong>and</strong>icaps.5. Narcotic <strong>and</strong> liquor users.6. Foreign born <strong>and</strong> illiterate.He said the police have the utmost in cooperation fromthe judges of his city, in dealing with traffic violators.Chief Zink offered the idea that judges can contributemuch to controlling auto accidents b y dealing harshly withthose guilty of traffic violations. Not only will he discouragedrivers of automobiles, but he will give encourmentto officer charged with enforcing the laws.He stated that in Palo Alto the police get the maximumof support from the town judges. He said one policejudge went out in the field to watch how traffic officersworked <strong>and</strong> was so convinced by what he saw that he hasdone a swell job in dealing with violators.Chief Holstrom declared there must be men especiallytrained for traffic control. It is not whether we can affordit, but rather how we cannot afford it. Should have a wellprepared course that could be put in effect now, as it isvery patent that we cannot wait until men return fromthe armed forces to take up the duties they left when theywent to war.Chief Wm. Lester <strong>and</strong> Walter Gordon of the AdultAuthority were then presented to the meeting <strong>and</strong> eachtold of the work <strong>and</strong> accomplishments of this newly establishedstate department, <strong>and</strong> asked all peace officers tocooperate by furnishing all information the authority
<strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 5asked them in letters sent out in all cases coming beforethem.Monday night the visitors were invited to a barbecueat Silacci's Grove, six miles east of Salinas. The membersof the Salinas <strong>Police</strong> Department, headed by Chief Weightwere the hosts. Over 500 were present to partake of thefine large <strong>and</strong> juicy steaks cooked over a swell pit by policeexperts. There were plenty of other refreshments <strong>and</strong><strong>and</strong> orchestra was on h<strong>and</strong> to furnish music.Tuesday's session opened with an address by AttorneyGeneral Robert Kenny.He was followed by Chief William A. Marrill of theU. S. Secret Service.Both of the above addresses will be found in this editionof the <strong>Journal</strong>.Sheriff Eugene W. Biscailuz of Los Angeles, was scheduledto speak on "What <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> of California CanDo To Help Returning War Veterans." But it seems therewas a strike of movie workers down in his territory <strong>and</strong> hewas unable to attend. However he had a mighty able substitutein Captain David E. Andrews of his office.Chief Horrall took charge of the panel <strong>and</strong> outlinedwhat was being done in his county for the boys who arebeing discharged from our armed forces.In the panel discussion on the subject Captain Andrewssaid that 800.000 men <strong>and</strong> women were in the warfrom California. Seven million men were trained in thisstate. After the war is declared ended California willhave, he prophesied, a million <strong>and</strong> a half veteran population.It is up to the people of this state <strong>and</strong> the peace officersof California, he said, to approach the question of veteransgoing wrong, <strong>and</strong> there are too many now goingwrong, as the records show that 20 per cent of the incominginmates of <strong>San</strong> Quentin are veterans.He told how his office is working on the problem. Of20,000 cases of veterans h<strong>and</strong>led 87 per cent who werenot tried are working out all right.Los Angeles has a screening hoard made up of membersof the Sheriff's office, the District Attorney's office<strong>and</strong> Probation Department, veteran organizations <strong>and</strong> businessrepresentatives. All veterans arrested pass throughthis board <strong>and</strong> studied individually. Those who show repentcnce;whose past conduct is good; those who havenever been arrested before, <strong>and</strong> those who think the worldowes them a living <strong>and</strong> are bent on collecting, are all segregated.Then the hoard tries to find some way to steer themhack into the right path. Some are given jobs, others aresent to their homes, if in other states, <strong>and</strong> some, even theunseeming hopeless cases, are studied, <strong>and</strong> he cited instanceswhere these have been straightened out withoutgoing to prison <strong>and</strong> are today good citizens.He said that as more men are discharged from thearmed services the matter of veterans being taken intocustody will increase <strong>and</strong> he advised all peace officers tohave a workable plan to help these men who have givenof their time to the defense of their country.Sheriff Ware of Imperial Count y stated it is recognizedthat men who go into combat have their emotions aroused<strong>and</strong> get into a mood that it is difficult to readjust oneself.He recommended that enforcement officers treat such menunderst<strong>and</strong>ingly <strong>and</strong> not to use force, <strong>and</strong> use the leastrestraint possible.Chief McAllister urged that peace officers help veteransget civil service jobs. He says the state recognizes the debtit owes to veterans by providing extra points for those ablebodied <strong>and</strong> extra points for those disabled. He says Sacramentohas had no civil service for policemen for fiveyears <strong>and</strong> that his department is open to any veteran whocan qualify.Sheriff Gleason of Alameda County said all veterans arrestedin his county are examined <strong>and</strong> efforts made todetermine what should he done with them, keeping inmind a desire to evade the necessity of sending him tostate prisons.Captain McDonald said all executive officials depend ontheir patrolmen <strong>and</strong> station keepers for information relativeto veterans who get into trouble. These men shouldbe educated to h<strong>and</strong>le all cases they meet for they are theState Association's <strong>Officers</strong> forComing YearMen selected to head the State <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong>'Association for the ensuing year:President—Sheriff George J .

Vincent, newly appointedto take charge of the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> district for the FederalBureau of Investigation. His subject was "Post WarChallenge of Law Enforcement."The second number on the afternoon program was anaddress by R. B. Cozzens, assistant Director of the WarRelocation Authority.

Page 6 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>I.ANNUAL REPORT OF PRESIDENT DULLEAPresented At Salinas Convention of State <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong>Since our last Annual Conference, peace has againcome to the world, but we in law enforcement must realizethat the coming of peace brings with it added problemsin our field.When war came upon us on December 7, 1941, wewere not wholly unprepared to meet the tremendousCi-ner CHARLES W. DULLEAproblems that were so suddenly thrust upon us. For manymonths prior to Pearl Harbor, we had been conscious ofthe probability of the United States becoming one of thebelligerents <strong>and</strong> having in mind that end we took advantageof the specialized training courses which were madeavailable to law enforcement groups by the Federal Bureauof Investigation <strong>and</strong> other Federal <strong>and</strong> Military units. Weall remember December 7, 1941, <strong>and</strong> I like to feel thatduring the period commencing on that date <strong>and</strong> up toAugust 15, <strong>1945</strong> when the Japanese surrendered <strong>and</strong> theWorld War II came to a close, law, enforcement reachedits highest point in efficiency <strong>and</strong> achieved its greatestposition in winning the confidence <strong>and</strong> affection of ourcitizens.During the war, law enforcement executives led all ofthe organizations which were formed to h<strong>and</strong>le home defense.Sheriffs, Chiefs of <strong>Police</strong> <strong>and</strong> other peace officerswere in charge of Civilian Defense units <strong>and</strong> demonstratedby their leadership their ability to discharge theaffairs of their offices. The people of this State turned instinctivelyto their local law enforcement officials for protection<strong>and</strong> advice <strong>and</strong> to our everlasting credit we seizedthat opportunity <strong>and</strong> as a result we are now being soughtin conferences of business leaders <strong>and</strong> executives to discussthe problems which will inevitably arise in the post warperiod.The post war period offers a challenge to law enforcement<strong>and</strong> we should vigorously press our dem<strong>and</strong>s for increasedpersonnel <strong>and</strong> modern equipment. All of the gainswhich we have made will vanish unless we meet the futurewith a highly trained personnel which is fortified withadequate salaries, pensions <strong>and</strong> living conditions. Our inservicetraining program should he enthusiastically supportedby all of our members <strong>and</strong> a concerted effort shouldhe made to attract the returning veteran to enter the lawenforcement field. High st<strong>and</strong>ards should he required ofapplicants <strong>and</strong> by providing them with attractive conditionsof employment <strong>and</strong> compensation, law enforcement isbound to take its place in government to which it is entitled.The <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> Association of the State of Californiahas enjoyed a prosperous year. I am proud to havebeen President of the Association during the time of war<strong>and</strong> I want to thank all of the officers <strong>and</strong> members whohave assisted me in carrying on the activities of the orginizationduring the past year. I particularly wish to callthe attention of the memhershijz to the untiring efforts ofour Secretary-Treasurer Tames T. Drew. He has laboredunceasingly for the good of the <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> <strong>and</strong> the accomplishmentsof the past year are doe in a large measureto his unselfish activity. The law <strong>and</strong> Legislative Committeeunder the very capable leadership of District AttorneyRalph E. Hoyt were in frequent attendance at Sacramentoduring the session of the Legislature <strong>and</strong> by their constructiveefforts were successful in preventing any laws,adverse to the interests of law enforcement, from beingenacted.His Excellency the Honorable Earl Warren. Governorof the State of California, honored several members ofthis Association by appointing them as members of a LawEnforcement Advisory Committee to the State War Councilwhich Committee functioned actively during the warperiod <strong>and</strong> up to September 15, <strong>1945</strong>, when the WarCouncil was abolished by legislative action <strong>and</strong> naturallythe Law Enforcement Advisory Committee was also abolished.The Governor, however, recognized the worth ofsuch a Committee, especially during this post war period,<strong>and</strong> he reappointed the members to the Committee withinstructions to act in an advisory capacity to him in connectionwith the new State Disaster Act, which was enactedinto law on September 15. <strong>1945</strong>, <strong>and</strong> supplantedthe State War Council. Your President has acted as Chairmanof this eroup <strong>and</strong> the Committee feels that much thatis worth while has been accomplished in the interests of lawenforcement.As we enter upon a new year I pledge my unqualifiedsupport to the incoming President <strong>and</strong> his Board of <strong>Officers</strong><strong>and</strong> earnestly urge all members to actively interestthemselves in the affairs of the Association <strong>and</strong> support theprogressive program that will he in effect during the comingyear.
<strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 7GOVERNOR EARL WARREN'S ADDRESSOur Chief Executive Hasn't Missed a Meeting of the State <strong>Peace</strong><strong>Officers</strong> Since He Became a MemberI am happy to he with you again. It is like Old Homeweek to see you in this conference. I am very proud ofthe fact that I was one of you for so many years, <strong>and</strong> as Ilook into your faces—many happy memories crowd me.I want to congratulate you on your War-time job. Youhave reflected credit on our state by the manner in whichGOVERNOR EARL WARRENyou have taken care of our swollen population withgreatly depleted police forces—in the face of many new<strong>and</strong> strange situations—with too few <strong>and</strong> inexperiencedmen.We finished the war without having had any sabotage,serious disorders or other abnormal criminal manifestationsthat might affect the safety or good order of yourcommunities. You achieved this result <strong>and</strong> at the sametime served, not only our prewar population of seven million,but also an additional million <strong>and</strong> a half who came hereto engage in war industry, as well as hundreds of thous<strong>and</strong>sof military personnel who trained here.The housing, transportation, <strong>and</strong> other conditions madeit very difficult for you to do so.Last Saturday I participated in some Army-Navy "E"awards to a group of industrial concerns in the SacramentoValley. They had all made splendid contributionsto the war effort. It was a pleasure to assist in honoringthem, as I listened to the speeches, it passed through mymind that the Army <strong>and</strong> Navy could well accord somesimilar recognition to the police, fire <strong>and</strong> health departmentsthat contributed so greatly both to the servicing ofour armed forces <strong>and</strong> to the farming <strong>and</strong> industrial institutionsof California that produced so magnificently forour boys overseas.I want to say that in my book, the peace officers ofCalifornia are entitled to an "E" award for their services.I wish I could say to you that you might now relax <strong>and</strong>take a well-deserved rest. But you know as well as I dothat there is no such thing in store for you. Most of youhave been in this work for many years <strong>and</strong> you know thatthere is no royal road to success in the police business. Itis always a hard job that will not permit of relaxation,<strong>and</strong> more often than otherwise—it is simply a questionof moving from one difficult situation to another that isstill more difficult.In my judgment you are facing exactly that situationnow. All of the criminal indices of crime as well as ourexperiences after the last war forecast a crime situationin this country that will overshadow that of recent years<strong>and</strong> test our law enforcement facilities to the N'th degree.I believe this will be true, both in the field of J uvenile delinquency<strong>and</strong> in major adult crime. Such conditions areinvariably the backlash of war. The brutality of war, thebreakdown of moral restraint as a result of it, the inevitablereaction against discipline, the disruption of familylife, unsettled social <strong>and</strong> economic conditions, the conditioningof the public mind to the destruction of life <strong>and</strong>property, all contribute toward launching many personsinto a life of crime.We can expect many people to take this opportunityto live by their wits. The vast amount of money in circulationwill make it easy for bunco men to profitably plytheir trade in a multitude of ways.Crimes of violence, already greatly on the increase, will,without question, increase many times over.There will undoubtedly be a revival of the extortionaterackets that held many of the cities of the country in a visefor years after the last war.Organized crime in every form will raise its ugly head<strong>and</strong> you men will he the shocktroops to suppress it.During the last notorious era of organized crime, youwere able to keep this state in better condition than manyothers. We all bore down on racketeers <strong>and</strong> cooperatedwith other law enforcement agencies in making it difficultfor them to get a real foothold in any part of the state. Wemust do that all over again—with even greater zeal <strong>and</strong> ahigher degree of cooperation. We all have a part to play<strong>and</strong> right now is the time to start in dead earnest. I wantto help you with every facility of the State government.FIRST, I want to keep the criminal laws that you havefought so hard for through the years in a condition wherethey can be used at all times for the protection of society<strong>and</strong> not for the benefit of racketeers, bunco men <strong>and</strong> gangsters.We are in better shape now than are most states. Progresshas been made here during the last two years—due(Continued on page 28)

Overholt, the newly elected presidentof the State <strong>Peace</strong> Officer's Association, is the son of apioneer family who came to Fresno county in 1868. Likingthe climate, scenery <strong>and</strong> the prospects offered for aprosperous future in that great fertile inl<strong>and</strong> valley, the-?,*"TONY" SHERIFF OVERHOLT'S SADDLE HORSEelder Overholt homesteaded a piece of property <strong>and</strong> setup his future home. The years that followed brought himthe happiness <strong>and</strong> contentment he envisioned <strong>and</strong> he <strong>and</strong>his family became prominent in the development of thissection of the famed <strong>San</strong> Joaquin Valley.Their son George J. grew up there, got his education<strong>and</strong> the foundation for the exceptionally fine career he hasachieved as a law enforcement officer, in his native county.He became a deputy sheriff under the former sheriff,J . S. Jones, <strong>and</strong> served under that official until 1930, whenSheriff Jones retired. He was undersheriff for manyyears under that regime.In 1930, with the retirement of his chief he faced thevoters for the first time, <strong>and</strong> was swept into office by ah<strong>and</strong>some vote. He has been reelected three times sincethat election, <strong>and</strong> is now serving his 15th year as Sheriffof Fresno.During those 15 years he has given the people of hisdistrict as fine an example of law enforcement as it couldbe found in any place in these United States. Not asingle major crime has remained unsolved, <strong>and</strong> by thealertness of himself <strong>and</strong> the force of 41 deputies workingunder him, he has kept crime down to a small degree.When it is considered Fresno county has become the centerof a vast domain, producing every conceivable commodityraised on farms, ranches <strong>and</strong> dairy l<strong>and</strong>s, the discouragementgiven criminals of all classes, by the record of apprehensions<strong>and</strong> the crime prevention work of the Sheriff'soffice, the security rendered the people of Fresno countyis indeed remarkable.Fresno produces every kind of fruit grown in the west.Its dairying business is one of the largest in the state.

SPECIAL AGENT JOHN VINCENTChief Zink in opening the panel discussion of"Welfare,Disability <strong>and</strong> Pensions", opened with the following:At the Fresno Conference or meeting I brought up thesubject of salaries <strong>and</strong> general welfare <strong>and</strong> conditions oflabor <strong>and</strong> the pensions. 'What are we going to do forourselves?We had individual departments that did a fine job inhelping their own members. Some departments have doneout on the street <strong>and</strong> take officers without any experience,if you can be replaced by anyone—it is not illegal—yourst<strong>and</strong>ards will suffer. You have to insure competition tosecure high salaries.So the first thing we must have set st<strong>and</strong>ards. We canhave many ideas of what we would like to have. I have,<strong>and</strong> I am sure you have, for police officers, but we haveto have something that we can write up, <strong>and</strong> that is verydifficult. So the first thing we have talked is st<strong>and</strong>ards.We have different st<strong>and</strong>ards in every department.If we are going to make police officers the high type wewant, men particularly well fitted for their work—<strong>and</strong> wehave found how difficult it is to get them—men fullyqualified to do a good job, we must set up certainst<strong>and</strong>ards.We went along in the war, all of us very busy, <strong>and</strong> theend came suddenly, <strong>and</strong> it left us unprepared.

Throughout the state, however, it wasnot true all over. We feel that at this time somethingshould be done to better the conditions <strong>and</strong> salaries ofpolice officers.We started in with that idea, <strong>and</strong> the first thing thatwe come to is, what basis are we going to use to do this.We used the Bay Counties Association as a guinea pigto see how it would go over. In other lines of endeavorthey require no higher types than we do. They are unitedin their efforts <strong>and</strong> they have achieved better conditionsfor their particular groups. You know at the time labororganizations came into being it was decided we could notjoin labor organizations. That was worked out by theInternational Association of Chiefs of <strong>Police</strong>. That is obviouson the face of it. We cannot affiliate ourselves withany particular group. We have to he fair to all interests.Therefore, anything that is done we have to do itthrough some organization such as this. It was recommendedthat the <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong>' Association of the Stateof California take up this problem of bettering the conditionsof the men, the wages <strong>and</strong> hours of labor.In considering this, the first thing we had to considerwas st<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>and</strong> qualifications.

Page 10 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>Chief 'Weight of SalinasChief of <strong>Police</strong> George C. Weight has been head of theSalinas <strong>Police</strong> Department for two years <strong>and</strong> a half, <strong>and</strong>he has demonstrated to his adopted city, as well as to thepeace officers of California that he is an able <strong>and</strong> far seeingpolice official.Born in Modesto, he moved to Monterey County whenCHIEF GEORGE C. WEIGHT OF SALINASa young boy. He got an education in the public schoolsof Monterey <strong>and</strong> Pacific Grove.When he grew up he decided the life of a policemanwas a good one <strong>and</strong> he joined the Pacific Grove <strong>Police</strong>Department, <strong>and</strong> was assigned to traffic. As any oneknows who has visited Monterey, Pacific Grove <strong>and</strong> Carmel,there are a lot of motor vehicles percolating over themany, <strong>and</strong> oft times narrow highways. The scenic beauties,the unexcelled climate attracts thous<strong>and</strong>s of automobiles,loaded with people taking advantage of these attractions.Then there has always been a lot of military menstationed at Monterey's Presidio, even before the war,which has brought hundreds of thous<strong>and</strong>s of service mento nearby camps. -But when Traffic Officer Weight was riding the highwaysthere was no war on, but he built up a reputationfor carrying out his duties, making arrests, studying thecause for violations <strong>and</strong> accidents, appearing in court, <strong>and</strong>presenting his evidence in a masterly manner, that whenthere was an opening for a police officer in the Salinas<strong>Police</strong> Department, he was enrolled there.The Salinas officials knew of his splendid reputation asa traffic officer so they gave him such an assignment. Hecontinued here to do his work as well as he did at PacificGrove.Young Officer Weight was an ambitious officer, <strong>and</strong> hesaw the possibilities offered in the work of enforcing thelaws. He studied <strong>and</strong> progressed rapidly to Desk Sergeantthen to Captain <strong>and</strong> in May, 1943, he was elevated to theposition of Chief of <strong>Police</strong>.Chief Weight took up the study of all phases of policework, <strong>and</strong> having the intelligence to assimilate what hestudied he has gathered a fund of knowledge.Because of the splendid record he made as a police officer<strong>and</strong> his insatiable desire for more knowledge by study,he was selected in 1942, while a Captain, to attend thetwentieth session of the National <strong>Police</strong> Academy inWashington, D. C. Here he made fine grades <strong>and</strong> graduatedwith high honors.Salinas has about 4½ square miles of area <strong>and</strong> in itsconfines live some 15,000 people, with over 17,000 livingaround the city limits. During the war, of which ChiefWeight has been in charge of the police for over 30months, untold thous<strong>and</strong>s of soldiers <strong>and</strong> sailors have convergedon Salinas from surrounding encampments.Yet with a sizeable permanent population <strong>and</strong> the addedservice men, Salinas has been a white spot on this coastfor its lack of crime.Since Chief Weight assumed comm<strong>and</strong> there has beenbut one murder in the city, no robberies of any consequence<strong>and</strong> burglaries have been held at an almost unhelieveableminimum.The twenty-five men who make up the police departmenthave been schooled by their chief to prevent crime.As one illustration of how they do it we might point outhow the city is patroled. With a fleet of two-way radiocars his men are on the move every hour, day <strong>and</strong> night.At nights the men of the two watches in the residence <strong>and</strong>business districts keep a close watch on all strangers whoseem to he getting out of line. His foot patrolmen, notonly try doors, front <strong>and</strong> rear of store <strong>and</strong> homes temporarilyvacant, once on each watch, but they try them often<strong>and</strong> at irregular times. This has a discouraging effect onany larcenous inclined misguided person to try prying opena door or Jimmying a window.Salinas, despite the vast amount of motor vehicles thatpass through on the main coast highway <strong>and</strong> from surroundingcountry has the traffic problem under control<strong>and</strong> comparatively few accidents occur there throughoutthe year.The little city, the center of a wide variety of farmingprosperous more than any similar community in the country,can well feel proud of the men who have sworn toenforce the laws <strong>and</strong> the record that they have attainedtoward this end. Chief Weight has had a big part sincehe joined the department nearly 15 years ago in bringingabout this pleasing condition.

Page 12 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>The Friday Holdup MenBy SERGEANT HARRY J. MAJORS, Robbery Detail, <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> <strong>Police</strong> DepartmentWhen the Teletype came through announcing the arrestof Richardson, Inspector McCann beamed his first smile inmany months. However, he knew his job was only halfcomplete <strong>and</strong> he carried on just as before without a let-up.Fowler was now his next objective.Meantime the Federal Bureau of Investigation had beenSERGEANT HARRY MAJORSgiving our department splendid co-operation through theefforts of Agents Lapachet <strong>and</strong> Polkenhorn. They gaveMcCann every assistance possible which their organizationwas able to provide through its nation-wide organization.They were especially helpful to the department inrunning down information in out-of-state places.About this time, Lieutenant James C. Malloy, who hadserved the department faithfully for nearly forty years,decided that he would retire. The strain <strong>and</strong> long hoursof work were beginning to tell on him. He felt he neededa well-earned rest as the duties of the detail were beginningto tax his strength <strong>and</strong> impair his health. He alsowanted to be with his favorite gr<strong>and</strong>son, little "Jimmie",who was living in Southern California with his daughter<strong>and</strong> son-in-law. Chief Dullea <strong>and</strong> Captain McDonald ofthe Bureau of Inspectors, were then confronted with theproblem of replacing such a capable man as Malloy insuch an important detail. Their chaice, finally, was LieutenantDaniel P. McKlem, a former member of the Bureauof Inspectors, <strong>and</strong> who was transferred to the Mission<strong>Police</strong> District when he was appointed to that rank a shorttime previously. Chief Dullea <strong>and</strong> Captain McDonalddecided that the Robbery Detail needed a young <strong>and</strong> aggressiveman for the job. Lieut. McKlem took up whereLieut. Malloy left off, <strong>and</strong> brought new life <strong>and</strong> pep withhim on the job.With Lieutenant McKlem at the helm, things beganto hum around the Robbery Detail. He too, took a personalinterest in the apprehension of Fowler. With InspectorMcCann <strong>and</strong> Agents Polkenhorn, Eddy, Gleason, Kelly<strong>and</strong> Mullins of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, he personallyconducted the search for Fowler. Every knownhaunt <strong>and</strong> former friend of Fowler was kept under surveillancenight <strong>and</strong> day.When the latest photograph <strong>and</strong> circular of Fowler wassent throughout the Western States, copies of the circularwere sent to each <strong>Police</strong> District to be posted on bulletinboards. Officer Bokelund, who had been away on vacation,<strong>and</strong> upon his return to duty, thought he would look overthe hoard in his precinct to see what new events had transpiredduring his absence. The first thing that struck himwas the picture of Leigh Haskell Fowler. He lost no timein calling the Robbery Detail: "Sergeant Majors," he said,"that fellow Fowler is the one that held up Larrie Driscoll<strong>and</strong> me last January. I can't forget those eyes of his."Once again a woman comes into the case. Fowler, welearned was sweet on some gay divorcee in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong><strong>and</strong> that he had returned to the city in October to pay hera visit. By the time we learned who she was <strong>and</strong> had coveredthe place, Fowler had stopped his visits. A closewatch was kept on every place that Fowler was knownto visit <strong>and</strong> taverns where he had been drinking beforehe first left town, but no trace of him could be found.INSPECTOR EDWARD MURPHYAlthough we had pictures <strong>and</strong> a good description of Fowlerno member of the Robbery Detail had seen him in person.Many of these places were kept under continuous surveillancein the hope that we would see some person that resembledFowler's description. But to pick out a man on thestreet from a picture is a difficult job, especially when theyhave no outst<strong>and</strong>ing characteristics such as unusual height,scars, marks or other distinguishing features. Fowler wasa man of medium stature <strong>and</strong> no unusual characteristics
<strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 13that we knew of. We knew though that if Fowler wasaround town we would eventually get a lead on him. Welater learned that the woman that Fowler was sweet onhad taken on a new suitor during his absence <strong>and</strong> whenFowler returned to town the new suitor's jealousywas aroused. We waited for some information from thissource <strong>and</strong> it did come in the way of an anonymous phone--INSPECTOR RAY DOHERTYcall <strong>and</strong> a man stated that our man was now living in Oakl<strong>and</strong><strong>and</strong> made frequent trips to <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>.Here it is FRIDAY again, <strong>November</strong> 3rd, 1944. AgentsPolkenhorn, Eddy, Gleason, Kelly, <strong>and</strong> Mullins of theFederal Bureau of Investigation, <strong>and</strong> Lieutenant McKlcm<strong>and</strong> Inspectors McCann, Doherty, Murphy <strong>and</strong> Reznik arestationed in strategic spots at the toll plaza of the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>Bay Bridge. It is 12:30 a.m., <strong>and</strong> a cold wind blowingfrom the North. They had waited patiently thereat their posts for seven hours for an auto that was supposedto be going to Oakl<strong>and</strong> containing Fowler <strong>and</strong> anotherman. This was another anonymous tip that theythought would fade into thin air, <strong>and</strong> were just aboutgiving up hope that such a car was coming across thebridge. The FBI Agents <strong>and</strong> <strong>Police</strong> had both sides of thetoll plaza covered in case the car should drive throughwithout stopping. Lieutenant MeKiem <strong>and</strong> Inspector Mc-Cann were parked in Agent Polkenhorn's auto with AgentEddy, with their motor running; while the other inspectors<strong>and</strong> agents were on the far side of the toll plaza withtheir cars in readiness. Suddenly several cars came speedingdown the ramp toward the toll plaza <strong>and</strong> stopped topay the toll. The third <strong>and</strong> last car was the one that fittedthe description of the one they were looking far. But insteadof only two men in the large dark sedan, there weretwo passengers in the hack scat—a sailor <strong>and</strong> a soldier.This was not anticipated. However, MeKiem said: "Thislooks like the car <strong>and</strong> we might as well try out luck; butbe careful boys—this Fowler is never without his .45."The agents <strong>and</strong> police jumped out of their parked carwhich was several hundred feet back of the car, <strong>and</strong>MeKiem <strong>and</strong> McCann ran forward <strong>and</strong> opened the righth<strong>and</strong> front door of the auto; the driver became frightened<strong>and</strong> jumped out of the car on his side, <strong>and</strong> was immediatelytaken into custody. But the moment McKlem <strong>and</strong>McCann opened the door Fowler made a grab for somethingin his waistb<strong>and</strong>. MeKlem <strong>and</strong> McCann grabbedboth of Fowler's h<strong>and</strong>s. He was a tough <strong>and</strong> wiry fellow<strong>and</strong> put up a terrific struggle in his efforts to get out the.45 which he had hold of but could not use. McKlem <strong>and</strong>McCann knew that if he ever got the gun out there wouldhe a killing so they both hung with steel grips until theycould pull him out of the car. About this time InspectorMurphy seeing the struggle came rushing through thetoll gates <strong>and</strong> took hold of Fowler. Everything was tensenow. The soldier <strong>and</strong> sailor hitchhikers jumped out of thecar wondering what was going on. Byst<strong>and</strong>ers <strong>and</strong> peoplein stopped buses were looking on <strong>and</strong> wondering also whatthe commotion was about. Murphy, a big, strapping burlyIrishman about six-foot, two, then took a firm hold ofFowler's neck <strong>and</strong> tossed him on the street <strong>and</strong> held himdown while McKlem <strong>and</strong> McCann stripped Fowler of hisautomatic which was cocked <strong>and</strong> ready for action. Theysearched him for a second gun which he was reported tohe carrying, but found no more guns on him.Well, Fowler was brought hack to <strong>Police</strong> Headquarters.He was rather reticent about telling about any crimeswhich he might have committed, but after a grilling ofseveral hours he came through <strong>and</strong> gave a statement admittingthe holdup of the police officers, the grocery store<strong>and</strong> the cleaning <strong>and</strong> dyeing place. He also told of hiscrimes in the Pacific Northwest. And Andre Marty'sI4 -IkINSPECTOR MAX RESNIKwatch, which had been in his family for generations, <strong>and</strong>which he prized more than any of his possessions, waspawned by Fowler in a little second h<strong>and</strong> store in Astoria,Oregon. Marty got his watch back. Fowler pleaded guilty<strong>and</strong> was sentenced to prison for life under the habituallycriminal act. He would not name his accomplice in any ofthese crimes, however.

Wallace <strong>and</strong> his staff of veteran peace officers mayjustly be proud of their record in crime prevention <strong>and</strong>detection during these past five years of World War II.Such briefly is the picture which confronted Chief Wallace<strong>and</strong> his staff shortly following his being made permanentin the position he has ably held since February 16,1939. A veteran of 24 years of continuous service in thedepartment, Chief Wallace joined the department as arookie patrolman back in August 15 of 1921. Chief Wallacewill he eligible for retirement on August 15, 1946.Under his leadership, the department has not only keptpace with modern police procedure <strong>and</strong> administrationbut can also point with pride to several "firsts" so far asobtaining a better underst<strong>and</strong>ing between the general public<strong>and</strong> various branches of law enforcement are concerned."Whatever forward steps we have taken have beentoward bettering the underst<strong>and</strong>ing of law enforcement.These ideas have been shared freely with other departmentsin promoting a better underst<strong>and</strong>ing," states Chief Wallace.CHIEF RAYMOND T. WALLACE OF FRESNOThe department operates under the Commission formof government of which thrice elected Mayor Z. S. Leymelis head of the Department of Public Safety <strong>and</strong> GeneralWelfare. Under Mayor Leymel's general supervision arethe police <strong>and</strong> fire departments <strong>and</strong> the health department<strong>and</strong> the city pound. The 1944 census for Fresno indicateda population of 60,685 for the ten square miles. However,as far back as 1940 the metropolitan area of Fresno, consistingof 24 square miles, included a population of 102,-000 persons, not counting the thous<strong>and</strong>s upon thous<strong>and</strong>sof members of the armed forces at Hammer Field, at thesignal training base at Camp Pinedale <strong>and</strong> the trainingunits at the old Fresno County Fairgrounds site.What is now considered almost common procedurethroughout the United States with reference to the takingof motion pictures of drunk drivers had its origin in theFresno <strong>Police</strong> Department back in 1938 <strong>and</strong> 1939. Photographstaken with a 16 mm. camera of a drunk driver atthe police station immediately following his being arrestedon a charge of drunk driving resulted in a plea of "guiltyyour honor" in 99 out of the first 100 persons so arrested.So phenomenal has been the success of taking motion picturesof persons accused of drunk driving that police departmentshave adopted its use throughout the nation.Possibly the single factor leading to the pleas of guilty todrunk driving in the police court resulted from the knowledgethat the accused would have to witness his ownactions before a jury in a crowded courtroom with thefilm as the damaging telltale evidence of guilt.Many California cities have adopted the idea of markingcars parked on the street with the use of a single policemanriding a three-wheeled motorcycle. A single chalkmark is left on the left rear tire <strong>and</strong> in this way one manis able to cover more than twice the area as was possibleon foot patrol.RADIO ENGINEER R. M.

HOYT, AlamedaAt the February recess of the last session of the Legislatureyour Legislative Committee was confronted with alarger task than usual, in that a record number of billswere introduced. Of these, 173 affected law enforcement<strong>and</strong> law enforcement officers.Your Committee met at Attorney General Robert W.Kenny's office on February 20, <strong>1945</strong>, to consider a digestof these bills <strong>and</strong> took the following action: Approved 39;disapproved 75; decided to take no action on 40 <strong>and</strong> passed19 for further consideration.During the second half of the legislative session someof the bad bills were amended so as to make them eitherinnocuous or good; some which did not affect law enforcementwere amended so that they became important to lawenforcement officers <strong>and</strong> others that were originally meritoriousbills were so amended that they became otherwise.Members of your Committee made frequent trips to Sacramentoto express their views to the Legislature. YourCommittee is indeed appreciative of the very fine cooperationreceived from every member of the Association.Numerous bills which would have been most detrimentalto law enforcement were introduced. Of these theworst are probably the Confessions Bill, which would haveruled out all confessions which were not made in thepresence of the defendant's attorney or the public defender;the Conspiracy Bill, which would have seriously weakenedthe conspiracy law, the Bookie Bill, which wouldhave reduced the penalty for bookmaking from a felonyto a misdemeanor, <strong>and</strong> the Illegal Evidence Bill, whichwould have set aside the holding of our State SupremeCourt in the case of People v. Mayen.Forty-nine of the bills, which we were following beforethe Legislature, became law. Of these, 44 were good <strong>and</strong>the other five were not particularly had.The following is a brief summary of the more importantparts of the bills affecting law enforcement which havebecome law as a result of the <strong>1945</strong> session of the Legislature.Investigations <strong>and</strong> ArrestsChap. 1117.—Provides that there shall be no liabilityon a peace officer making an arrest pursuant to a warrant,provided (1) the warrant is regular on its face; (2) thearrest is made without malice; <strong>and</strong> (3) in a reasonablebelief that the person arrested is the person named in thewarrant.Chap. 333—Gives specific authority for the AttorneyGeneral to call conferences of the District Attorneys <strong>and</strong>Sheriffs.Chap. 36—Makes the offering of a reward for theapprehension of a person "dead" or "dead or alive" a misdemeanor.Chap. 941 —Jurisdiction of offenses on aircraft is inany county over which plane travels in course of the tripor at termination of the trip.

No v ember , <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 19Chief S. P. Jimmo of PittsburgA million soldiers have embarked at this port for Pacific war centers—a million are returning. Chief Jmno is doinga great job welcoming these soldiers home.California has a Chief of <strong>Police</strong> who knows how UnitedStates military heads felt, when Japan's sudden surrenderbrought to a skidding stop, the mighty avalanche of troopmovements to the Pacific.He is Chief of <strong>Police</strong> Sal P. Jimno of Pittsbur g, California,home of the largest U. S. Army Staging Centerwithin the jurisdiction of the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> Port of Embarkation.V-f Day minus one saw Sal counting beyond the millionmark for soldiers policed by his department, beforethey hoarded transports at Pittsburg docks, for a date withGeneral Tojo's would-he world-conquering Sons of Heaven.V-J Day threw the program into reverse gear <strong>and</strong> theclashing <strong>and</strong> grinding noise from that abrupt move scarcelyhad died before Chief Jimno was counting above the millionmark again. This time, the count was for the numberof overseas veterans who will disembark at Pittsburg forprocessing, before being sent to Separation Centers fordischarge.Today, Chief Jimno is sparking Mayor H. C. Chapin'sCity Welcome Committee for returning heroes of thePacific <strong>and</strong> he sees a responsibility different, but equal inimmensity, to that with which he was charged when rugged,highly-trained combat divisions "took their last fling"under the bright lights of this community's night spots,while awaiting the alert that meant their last 24 hours inAmerica.Then, the rule was control without unnesessary restraint.No one, <strong>and</strong> Chief Jimno least of all, begrudgedAmerica's finest a fling they could remember even in faroffPacific jungles <strong>and</strong> on barren coral isles. But combatmaneuvers <strong>and</strong> the Army's body-building program sentsoldiers to Pittsburg, not sissies. Each of the million menwho embarked from this city of 10.841 population. had tohe regarded as a potential threat to the "life <strong>and</strong> limb" ofhimself, his comrades or civilians.Soldiers aren't as had as an equivalent number of civilians,but they are a lot healthier <strong>and</strong> some wanted to ridthemselves of that excess energy which U. S. Army trainingprovides. They could be rough, even in play. Therewere days of worry as Chief Jimno marshaled his officerstogether—all 13 of them—to maintain control of his city.Harmonious relations with Military <strong>Police</strong> of the NinthService Comm<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> with Camp Stoneman's cOmm<strong>and</strong>ingofficer, Cal. Louis B. Rapp, resulted in a minimum ofincidents, although the Staging Center <strong>and</strong> West Garrisonhave a capacity of 70,000 soldiers, almost seven times thepopulation of the civilian community. The same cooperationbetween military <strong>and</strong> civilian authorities, is at workon the welcoming program for Pacific veterans <strong>and</strong> offersthe greatest assurance of its success.At Pittsburg, combat heroes already are trodding Americansoil for the first time since they embarked two, three,or even more years ago, to endure hardships <strong>and</strong> experiencesmore horrible than any could have imagined. Theywon victory <strong>and</strong> their sufferings are over, but these factsdo not become real to them until they achieve that whichthey have dreamed about so long—actually setting footagain on good, American soil.Highest emotional point for more than one million combatveterans thus comes at Pittsburg. Chief Jimno isdetermined to play his full part in seeing that the civilianreception proves to these men, that a grateful nation appreciatesthe sacrifices they have made <strong>and</strong> welcomes themhome.One welcome or a dozen can he arranged without difficultybecause enthusiasm is spontaneous among civilians<strong>and</strong> soldiers alike. Streets line up automatically withcheering residents. Store owners, clerks <strong>and</strong> customersdrop everything to wave <strong>and</strong> shout their welcome to gallantmen.Chief Jimno is not worrying about the first dozen welcomeprograms. He is worried about the last welcomes—how to assure the final contingents of returning heroes(Continued on page 46)On Your Way To the RussianRiverStop for Your Refreshments atMARGE AND JIM'S[ESIfl.Wk1iTh.2 Miles North of <strong>San</strong> Rafael, Calif.Phone 1493

He is a graduate from the Northwestern UniversityTraffic Institute <strong>and</strong> by his training <strong>and</strong> his naturalaptitude it is predicted he will do much to ease the regretabletraffic problem.Deputy Chief Riordan, by his past record, by the factthat he is an accredited attorney at law, by his provenability to fathom any problem touching on police work,<strong>and</strong> by his tireless capacity for getting at such problems byhard study will start his new assignment with the intentionof making an intensive investigation of all phases of thisdifficult task which confronts him.He, the Commission <strong>and</strong> the Chief are determined toleave nothing undone to relieve the present growing situation.But as Deputy Chief Riordan stated on the date ofhis appointment to the new post, nothing near perfectioncan he expected until some mighty badly needed improve'DEPUTY CHIEF MICHAEL RmoaoANtime speed limits after holding down to 15 miles per hourduring the war, <strong>and</strong> with more cars to come upon the highways,the increase in fatalities <strong>and</strong> personal injuries haverisen to an alarming figure.

It provided for a parity ofwages of the Fire <strong>and</strong> <strong>Police</strong> Departments, elevating thescale of salaries from Chiefs down to the newest appointee.By a vote of more than two to one the people grantedthis parity <strong>and</strong> these increases.By their action the people of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> gave recognitionto the great branches of the city government dealingin public safety. During the war, just closing, the FireLaddies <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Police</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> did a swell job. Particularlyin the <strong>Police</strong> Department was much added work piledon the membership, which, like the Fire Department, wasreduced by over 200 men who joined the armed forces.Yet no serious crime wave appeared <strong>and</strong> assisting thefederal agencies in the war effort, they carried out <strong>and</strong> enforcedevery rule <strong>and</strong> law provided as war measures.The annual compensations for the several ranks in the<strong>Police</strong> Department will be as follows:Protective <strong>Officers</strong>, for first year of service, $2,700; forsecond year of service, $2,800; for third year of service,$2,900; for fourth year of service <strong>and</strong> thereafter, $3,000.Motorcycle officers who ride the two-wheeled "bikes"will get $15 a month more than other officers.The salary raises go into effect next January 1, thoughpayment may not start until the next fiscal year, July 1.The <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> <strong>Police</strong> Department thanks the thous<strong>and</strong>sof voters, the many civic organizations, the AFLthe CIO, the Chamber of Commerce, the fraternal organizations<strong>and</strong> all others who endorsed Amendment No. 4.The Fire Department is equally grateful, <strong>and</strong> the successof this election shows just what can be accomplishedwhen the two departments join on a worthy project.It's nice to know your efforts are appreciated by thepublic, <strong>and</strong> the members of the Fire <strong>and</strong> <strong>Police</strong> Departmentswill strive in the future to even excel their past ef -forts to give the maximum of service.The counterfeit squad of the Criminal Investigation Divisionof the Mediterranean Theater recovered $500,000worth of phoney 1,000-lire notes.The Criminal Investigation Division of the MediterraneanTheater of Operations investigated 4,987 allegedcrimes against the government <strong>and</strong> recovered $1,585,141worth of U.

This challengewill have to be met with firmness, kindness <strong>and</strong> justice.So far, we have kept abreast with these changing problems.The post war problems will tax law enforcement tothe utmost, so we must be ready to meet them, that wemay help win the peace, confidence <strong>and</strong> respect of thosewe are called upon to serve <strong>and</strong> protect.I am happy to report that we have forty (40) newmembers added to our membership roll. During the yeareight (8) of our members have been called to their final rest.Our total membership to date is five hundred seventy-two(572).The Law <strong>and</strong> Legislative Committee <strong>and</strong> the Committeeon Motor Vehicle Legislation met in the office of RobertW.

Great credit is due Ralph E.Hoyt, District Attorney of Alameda County <strong>and</strong> themembers of the Association that he called upon from timeto time to appear before the Committees of the Legislature.I wish to thank, at this time, all chairmen of the variouscommittees of their untiring help <strong>and</strong> of all memberswho assisted them.I have attended several meetings of the State AdvisoryCommittee of Law Enforcement, also represented the Associationat meetings of the California Veterans Committees,in Sacramento.

So used, it will comm<strong>and</strong> the respect of thepublic <strong>and</strong> will be a real factor in assisting you to maintaina well-ordered community. We tried for many years tohave this statute enacted, while others endeavored toweaken the existing statute in the interest of law violators.We now have it. Let us administer it so wisely that thepeople will never give it up.I urge you to continue your virile leadership in thefield of criminal law <strong>and</strong> procedure at the Legislature. Itwas a great comfort to me to know that you were studyingall the criminal bills <strong>and</strong> forcibly expressing your opinionto the Legislature. It so happens that in the sessions sinceI have been Governor, your judgment <strong>and</strong> mine coincidedon these bills as had been the case for so many years priorto that time.I want to help you to get your men back from thearmed forces as soon as possible. You will need them.I have personally intervened with the War <strong>and</strong> NavyDepartments to accomplish that result.I hope your communities will give you more officers todo the job with. You will need them too. The police departments<strong>and</strong> sheriff's offices, in the main, were understaffedbefore the war <strong>and</strong> our additional million <strong>and</strong> a halfresidents cannot be cared for without additional help.I want to make our state facilities adequate for yourneeds.

E. (Bert) Chapin,a veteran of more than 30 years on the department.Assistant Chief Chapin, who has charge of the all-importantbut non-glamorous numerous records necessary for thesmooth functioning of a department as well as of the personnel,joined the Department on March 1, 1915, when heshared honors of piloting the sixteen passerger first patrolwagon of the Department, a custom built Doris automobile,with Howard Br<strong>and</strong>on. Chapin rose from patrolmanto corporal <strong>and</strong> was made sergeant in 1924 <strong>and</strong> lieutenantthe following year. In 1939 he was named to a temporaryposition of assistant chief of police <strong>and</strong> this title was madepermanent on <strong>November</strong> 9, 1940.A veteran of twenty years service in the department,Captain Joe E. Brady was made head of the traffic department<strong>and</strong> with active support began a vigorous campaignto cut down on all types of traffic violations within thecity limits of Fresno. That his leadership resulted in adownward trend of accidents was immediately indicatedby the larger number of traffic citations issued to thoughtlessdrivers in Fresno. Captain Brady has two sons in theservice.Directing the criminal department of the department isCaptain Dan Lung, a veteran of 22 years in the department,who like Captain Brady, also has two sons in theservice. During this period of continuous service in thedepartment Captain Lung has figured in all manhunts ofthe force, <strong>and</strong> is justly proud of his work in the KingAnderson murder case in 1938. <strong>Peace</strong> officers will recallthis as the fatal shooting of a mill worker at a stop sign indowntown Fresno. Following a man hunt of two statesboth men were apprehended, convicted <strong>and</strong> sentenced tothe gas chamber at <strong>San</strong> Quentin.Lieutenants W. E. (Ed) Ellis <strong>and</strong> S. A. (Sam) Meekhave a combined service record for the city of Fresno totalinghalf a century.

<strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 31Lieut. Meek has worked on nearly all branches of theDepartment including a traffic detail of seven years on amotorcycle.Lieut. Ellis joined the Department on December 10,1928 as a patrolman <strong>and</strong> has since served two neighboringcommunities in the re-organization of their Departmentsas well as a year with the government on a military leaveas an ordnance specialist assigned to the Air Corps TechnicalTraining Comm<strong>and</strong> in charge of small arms training.Lieut. Ellis was granted a six-months leave of absence in1939 to re-organize the Merced <strong>Police</strong> Department. Againhe was granted a leave, this time in 1944, for a period ofthree months to re-organize the Hanford <strong>Police</strong> Department.As in the case of Lieut. Meek, Ellis has served onseveral of the branches of the Department, including aninvestigator as detective sergeant.Probably the largest single factor in bringing closer contactbetween the members of the department, better <strong>and</strong>more timely law enforcement was the introduction to thedepartment back in 1937 <strong>and</strong> 1938 of two-way radioequipment under the supervision of Radio Engineer RobertM. Schuler, who joined the force in 1932. Schuler now hasinstalled <strong>and</strong> is operating thirty-two units of two-way radioequipment including 28 units of the police department<strong>and</strong> two in the fire prevention bureau <strong>and</strong> two in the firedepartment itself. All police transmitters were built bySchuler in Fresno <strong>and</strong> the receivers were purchased by thecity. Twenty-six two-way units of Sheriff George J.Overholt of Fresno County operate on frequency modulationin conjunction with Fresno <strong>Police</strong> Station KGZA ona frequency of 35.22 megacycles by authority of the FederalCommunication Commission. The City of Fresnoradio equipment operates on amplitude modulation <strong>and</strong> thepolice frequency for mobile units is 37.22 megacycles.The Highway Patrol Unit in Fresno operates in conjunctionwith KGZA, having nine mobile units. To extendthe service range of the radio in the county, two repeaterstations have been installed, one at Black Mountain in EasternFresno County <strong>and</strong> the other station near Coalinga.For closer contact with patrol cars of the Military <strong>Police</strong>organization, housed in the basement of the <strong>Police</strong> Stationfor the past four years, Schuler has loaned them radioequipment <strong>and</strong> kept same in constant repair.In addition to the remote control of the Sheriff's OfficeBill Steinhaver, Mgr.SCHROEDER'SDRINKSThe Best Lunch in Town1229 Van Ness Fresno, Calif.Phone 2-9923 We Sell for LessPIEMONTE MARKETGroceries, Fresh Meats, VegetablesItalian Sausage ManufacturersQuality Meats1331 Fresno St. Fresno, Calif.Bus.

An auxiliarytransmitter unit is kept ready at the police station inthe event the main transmitter on North First Street nearShields Avenue goes temporarily out of commission.After having served Fresno County for a period of sixyears in the identification bureau, part of the time as itssuperintendent, Detective Sergeant 'W. J . Mortl<strong>and</strong>, Jr.,joined the Department late in 1938, with similar <strong>and</strong>added duties for the City of Fresno. During the trainingprogram for members of the Department as well as duringthe time of the Civilian Defense groups, Sergeant Mortl<strong>and</strong>took an active part in their operation. In addition to theduties of an identification officer in the Department Mortl<strong>and</strong>worked with investigators of nearby army air bases<strong>and</strong> training camps <strong>and</strong> appeared at courts martial forexpert opinion in h<strong>and</strong>writing cases approximately tentimes."Despite the loyal <strong>and</strong> whole-hearted support of theheads of the Departments under my jurisdiction, it wouldhave been well-nigh impossible to maintain a well-roundedcontrol in the city of Fresno without the active cooperationof the Military <strong>Police</strong>," said Chief Wallace. "It has beena distinct pleasure to work with these men, who at onetime numbered more than 100 soldiers, in the maintenanceof law <strong>and</strong> order as it concerned members of the armedforces. Their aid was invaluable at a crucial time in thehistory of this city, <strong>and</strong> for their support I am mostgrateful.""Already ten of my men have returned from the wartheaters to resume their careers in the Department. I amlooking forward to the return of many more.

Page 38 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>FRESNO'S SHERIFF(Continued from page 8)The population of Fresno county presided over by theSheriff is 205,000 people. During the war with the establishmentof three army camps, this number was greatlyenlarged. Yet it is a fact that during these war yearscrime has been held down to that recorded in normaltimes.During the war many residents of Fresno joined thearmed services, <strong>and</strong> many more left to take up employmentin war plants in Los Angeles, <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> <strong>and</strong>other communities. These latter are now returning to theirformer homes.Sheriff Overholt, like all law enforcement officials believesthe post war era will see an increase in crime. Heis not worried about being unable to h<strong>and</strong>le such an increase.He has able, well trained men on his staff, <strong>and</strong> hehas kept up with advancements made in the enforcementof the laws. He is none of the old wild west pistol packingsheriffs. He is a mild mannered appearing, well set up man,with an intelligent head on his shoulders, who has by experience<strong>and</strong> study amassed a lot of knowledge abouth<strong>and</strong>ling law breakers of all sorts.Sheriff Overholt is an expert horseman <strong>and</strong> one of theimportant additions to his office force is a mounted posse,which on October 26 celebrated its tenth anniversary.This organization, while one of the ornamental attractions,is schooled to take part in any unlawful outbreakthat might occur in the county, <strong>and</strong> are well able to givea good account of themselves.The newly elected president of the <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> Associationbelieves in cooperation, <strong>and</strong> he has taken an active<strong>and</strong> constructive part in the Association he now heads, aswell as the Sheriffs' Asociation. He is highly thought ofby his fellow peace officers, who all agree he is a mightyable officer of the law.Phone HEmlock 3165L. J.

Page 40 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>NORTHERN CALIFORNIA-a POLICE COMMUNICATION OFFICERSASSOCIATIONHENRY L. BOGARDUS, PresidentJ. D. HOSSACK, Secretary-TreasurerThe regular monthly meeting of the Northern California<strong>Police</strong> Communication <strong>Officers</strong> Association was heldOctober 11th, <strong>1945</strong> in Emeryville. The Bay Bridge radiocrew were hosts at the luncheon preceding the meeting.President Bogardus opened the meeting with introductionsof those in attendance. The minutes of the previousmeeting were read <strong>and</strong> approved as read.A. J. Morgenthal reported on the recent <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong>meeting in Salinas <strong>and</strong> stated that B. McMurphy hadtalked before that group on the frequency assignments thathad been allocated to the <strong>Police</strong> service due to the workdone at the national meeting in the east by representativesof the various police agencies.Bogardus <strong>and</strong> Jim Lewis reported on the progress of theSpecial Emergency Frequency Committee. They said itwould be necessary to determine exactly to what extentinterference will be experienced by tests on the SpecialEmergency Frequencies <strong>and</strong> they recommend a block assignmentof <strong>Police</strong> frequencies to avoid such pending <strong>and</strong>future interferences. Discussion of this matter was tabledfor the moment to receive reports of other committees.Chas. Cross reported for the C. W. committee <strong>and</strong>stated that letters had been received from several statesurging the State of California to establish C. W. stationsin order to provide interstate communication by radiotelegraph.Discussions concerning the special emergency frequencieswas resumed <strong>and</strong> B. McMurphy said that with referenceto engineers reports interference can be expected inthe frequencies that are separated by only forty <strong>and</strong> eightykcs away from the Special Emergency Frequency <strong>and</strong> it isquite possible interference will be experienced in the frequenciesfarther removed. Every effort should be made tocooperate with the users of the special emergency frequenciesin their selection of frequencies in order to minimizesuch interference as much as possible. Jim Lewis pointedout that every special emergency frequency was close toa police frequency no matter what portion of the 30-40me b<strong>and</strong> was selected. Mr. Babcock was called upon as theKey system expects to install a radio communication systemsoon. He stated that he did not have anything to say atthis time except that the Key System did desire to use the900 series code when their radio system was installed.President Bogardus summed up the situation with the statementthat we should decide what we should recommend inregard to the special emergency frequencies before thecommittee meets with the utilities. Fred Deetken sad thatit would not be fair to the manufacturers for the Associationto recommend a temporary frequency until the inter,ference problem is settled or until the police service is allocatedblock frequencies as they would have to st<strong>and</strong> theexpense of changing crystals to the permanent specialemergency frequency.A motion by Ivan Hudson, seconded by Dominick Lucido,that the frequency committee meet with the users ofthe Special Emergency Frequencies the Thursday followingthis meeting, was carried.Motion by Lindfeldt, seconded by Bill Koch, that allrequests for frequency releases be advertised to all memberson the monthly meeting announcement cards was not votedupon favorably after a discussion by the members.Morgenthal <strong>and</strong> Kirby talked on the Utilities using our900 series code <strong>and</strong> suggested that where the utilities workis of similar or comparable nature as police work, such asdispatching to accidents, etc.; they use the 900 code. Onmotion by McMurphy, seconded by Lindfeldt, the codecommittee should refer this matter to the CommunicationsCommittee of the Bay Counties <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> forapproval, motion carried.A motion by Ray Gada, seconded by Merrill LeBoeuf,that the NCPCOA return to night meetings was defeatedby vote.Dominick Lucido requested a frequency release for theCity of Pittsburg for five mobile units on a frequency of30.580 kcs F. M. On motion by George Burton, secondedby McMurphy, the NCPCOA approved the releaseby vote.Lucido requested the next monthly meeting be held inMartinez, Mott Brunton asked that it be held in Napa <strong>and</strong>Keller offered <strong>San</strong>ta Cruz. Due to Brunton having difficultyin making arrangements, it was decided to hold themeeting in Napa if satisfactory arrangements could bemade <strong>and</strong> if not the- meeting would be held in Martinez.McMurphy talked on the former custom of theNCPCOA holding a yearly get-together party <strong>and</strong> statedthat it would be nice to hold one again this year in honorof the members returning from the service.

Page 46 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>ANTIOCH POLICE(Continued from page 18)irhave been a celebrated six foot athlete to make a good: : officer, but it helps a lot.This article is built around a police problem of increasingimportance—juvenile delinquency—<strong>and</strong> we think theunique ideas used in Antioch can well be passed on to thepolice of the state.In cooperation with the Board of Education, everyyoungster from the fourth grade up, is required to writea "thesis" about himself.

Touching foot on American soil for thefirst time still will be the "Big Moment" for next year'sheroes. They will wonder why civilians appear so complacent,while soldiers are so enthused. That wonder willchange rapidly to anger or contempt for civilians <strong>and</strong> for anation which forgot so soon, the men who risked theirlives <strong>and</strong> successfully protected the "Home Front" fromdisaster.Chief Jimno knows the welcome job is too great for hisdepartment, for the City of Pittsburg <strong>and</strong> for the Countyof Contra Costa.

Army trucks carry them through Pittsburgbusiness center to Camp Stoneman <strong>and</strong> to a surprisesteak dinner.Returning veterans will not be disappointed by CampStoneman's military welcome, but that which they wantmost—a genuine, enthusiastic outpouring of civilian greeters,including girls who wear dresses, not uniforms—willbe lacking unless cities, counties, states <strong>and</strong> America comeforward with ideas <strong>and</strong> aid.Chief Jimno knows that Pittsburg <strong>and</strong> Contra CostaCounty can not provide the large <strong>and</strong> enthusiastic welcomesso frequently <strong>and</strong> over such a long period of time.He realizes that anyone can argue against such a programof civilian welcomes which will cost money <strong>and</strong> requiremanpower. But after the practical-minded <strong>and</strong> dollar savershave won their argument, Chief Jimno still is beset bythe one important <strong>and</strong> indisputable fact—weary, battle'worn veterans will not receive that which they want most,an enthusiastic civilian welcome at the psychological moment.Pacific soldiers dream <strong>and</strong> pray for the day when theyfirst will set foot on American soil. For more than onemillion veterans, the soil will he in Pittsburg, ContraCosta County, State of California. That will be their"Big Moment" <strong>and</strong> an event they will recall repeatedly inyears to come, as they rehash the war with their families<strong>and</strong> veterans' organizations in every State of the Union.If the civilian welcome is outst<strong>and</strong>ing here, Chief Jimnoknows their memory of California will he that of appreciation<strong>and</strong> gratitude. But if civilians fail the veterans,there will be no opportunity for correction.The "Big Moment" of digging your feet into native soilfor the first time, comes but once to each veteran.Phone 675Seven Up Bottling Co.A.

It has also aidedvastly in the recovery of stolen bicycles. The records showingthat 99 per cent of all stolen bicycles this year havebeen recovered, because of the record kept by the licensingbureau of the Department.Since he took charge of the Department following thesudden death of Chief Arington earlier this year, ChiefPickering has made some alterations in the headquartersof the City Hall assigned to the <strong>Police</strong> Department, <strong>and</strong>they have proven of great benefit to those charged withenforcing the law.Modesto, with its fine reputation as a great center ofevery form of farming, dairying, fruit raising, live stockproduction, draws many people to its confines. Most ofthese people are law abiding, a few have evil designs, butyou will find in the records of the score of officers headedby Chief Pickering, that the evil minded ones are discouragedfrom undertaking any illegal advantage of thegood people of Modesto. This valley city very rarely makesthe headlines in the metropolitan press for any so-calledmajor crime.If you have never been there, a trip will reveal to anyone, that Modesto is a modern, up-to-date little city, witha fine class of people making up its population, <strong>and</strong> it is aprosperous one, with a <strong>Police</strong> Department very zealous ingiving it the maximum of law enforcement.PERSONNEL OF DEPARTMENTUrban H.

He would not admit to any crime in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>.With his knowledge of law that he had learned inthe prison at Walla Walla, he felt he could beat the rap<strong>and</strong> began to put up a determined fight for his freedom.McCann's work was still unfinished. In the preparation ofevidence <strong>and</strong> obtaining witnesses for the trial he workedtirelessly. The trial went on for weeks. Our Criminologist,Frank Latulipe, brought out conclusive data from his scientificinvestigation that the portions of the burned checkswhich were found in the basement of the Klondike Hotelwhich Richardson was operating were the ones taken inthe holdup of the cleaning establishment. The victimspositively identified Richardson as one of the holdup men,<strong>and</strong> all the evidence presented in the case against Richardsonappeared to be conclusive, <strong>and</strong> McCann felt thatthe jury could only bring in a verdict of guilty. The jurywas out many hours, <strong>and</strong> returned with a disagreement.They were ten to two for conviction.Deputy District Attorney Jack Eyman who had donea splendid job in prosecuting the case, was not discouragedwith the results of the jury however. He immediately askedthat a date be set for a new trial <strong>and</strong> immediately startedpreparations for the new trial. Richardson got a new attorney.Practically the same evidence was presented as atthe first trial, <strong>and</strong> this time the jury came back after ashort deliberation <strong>and</strong> brought in a verdict of guilty.Thus after almost ten months of constant plugging bymembers of the Robbery Detail <strong>and</strong> the Agents of the FBIwe finally got our men.

<strong>November</strong>, 194 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 67THE UNITED STATES SECRET SERVICEBy CHIEF-IN-CHARGE WILLIAM A. MERRILL, of Pacific AreaAddress at <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> Convention in SalinasThe United States Secret Service was established July5, 1865. In its 80 years of existence the service has hadonly eleven chiefs <strong>and</strong> it is now under the direction ofChief Frank J. Wilson. Chief Wilson requested that Iexpress to this conference his sincere regrets that he wasunable to accept the invitation of our President, ChiefDulica, to address this conference. However, he is hopefulthat he may he with us at the next convention.CHIEF WILLIAM A. MERRILLThe Secret Service has had an exciting existence. It successfullyinvestigated an international spy ring during theSpanish-American War. In 1904 it exposed gigantic l<strong>and</strong>frauds in the west. It investigated the Teapot Dome oil sc<strong>and</strong>als.In 1915 it broke up a German sabotage organization<strong>and</strong> uncovered a plot which resulted in exposing Franz vonPapen, German military attache, <strong>and</strong> played a vital partin the recall of the German ambassador.Today the first <strong>and</strong> most important job of the SecretService is the protection of the President of the UnitedStates. That great responsibility was placed oil broadeningshoulders of the Service in 1901, following the assassinationof President McKinley. I need not stress the importanceof this responsibility <strong>and</strong> mention it because itis our number one task. In connection with this responsibilitythe <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> throughout the country haveplayed all part <strong>and</strong> the sincere cooperation ofthe <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> of California has been outst<strong>and</strong>ing oneach of the different visits of the President of the UnitedStates to the various communities.Our number two responsibility is the suppression ofcounterfeiting <strong>and</strong> forgery of the currency <strong>and</strong> other obligationsof the United States. As a part of the TreasuryDepartment the Secret Service protects the paper money,the coins, the checks, bonds <strong>and</strong> other securities issued bythe government.About ten years ago in the United States the victims ofcounterfeit money passers were losing about a million dollarsa year. Secret Service agents were seizing counterfeitingplants <strong>and</strong> were sending more <strong>and</strong> more counterfeitersto prison, but the big losses suffered by the victimsof the passers went On <strong>and</strong> on. It was clear that some improvedtechnique to fight this crime should he developed.After careful study it seemed to us that intensive effortsto obtain the cooperation of potential victims in order toprevent the crime was the answer. So then we figured thatthe best way to keep merchants from being victimized byprofessional counterfeit money passers was for us to explainto them the difference between the good <strong>and</strong> the hadmoney. We figured that if a grocer knew a counterfeitbill when he saw it, why, of course, he wouldn't take it intrade as good money.During 1937, besides using intensive orthodox methodsof fighting counterfeiters by investigations, prosecutions<strong>and</strong> jail sentences, the Secret Service started a long-rangecrime prevention program of which a KNOW YOURMONEY campaign was the first step. An important factorin our program was the showing of two KNOW YOURMONEY movies instructing merchants <strong>and</strong> others how todetect phony bills <strong>and</strong> coins <strong>and</strong> exactly what to do in theevent a passer tried to cheat them with a had bill. Overten million money h<strong>and</strong>lers saw these movies exposing theSUtter 6950A. M.

Page 68 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL <strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong>tricks of the counterfeiter. As another vital part of ourprogram, we printed a KNOW YOUR MONEY booklet,which is an education in itself—an education againstcrime. This book, filled with pictures of good <strong>and</strong> badmoney, was <strong>and</strong> is used in almost every high school in theUnited States. It teaches the future money h<strong>and</strong>lers ofthe nation how to spot bad money when they go out in thebusiness world. Also, during the campaign, newspapers,magazines, movies, <strong>and</strong> radio stations repeatedly used specialSecret Service material designed to show millions ofreaders <strong>and</strong> listeners how to spot bad money. In this waywe exposed all the slick tricks of the counterfeiter.Counterfeit losses began to drop. Year by year we intensifiedour efforts <strong>and</strong> for eight successive years theamount of counterfeit money losses suffered by the merchants,banks <strong>and</strong> others grew smaller <strong>and</strong> smaller. Lastyear we had to send only 35 persons to jail for counterfeiting,while ten years ago we were convicting about onethous<strong>and</strong>. And last year the victims of all phony bills <strong>and</strong>coins passed in the United States lost less than $29,000.Just compare that to the million-dollar loss before 1937<strong>and</strong> decide for yourselves whether or not our new techniqueof supplementing our orthodox investigative methodswith the KNOW YOUR MONEY crime prevention campaignsucceeded against the counterfeiters.Because of the success in the KNOW YOUR MONEYcampaign we were convinced that this technique wassound <strong>and</strong> started the same kind of crime prevention actionagainst the theft <strong>and</strong> forgery of government checks in aKNOW YOUR ENDORSER campaign. The Secret Serviceis charged with suppressing forgeries of all checksissued by the United States government. We have nojurisdiction over forgeries of commercial checks, but allthe same we have our h<strong>and</strong>s full, as our government issuesone million checks every day—more than three hundredmillion checks a year. Most of the checks go to dependentsof soldiers <strong>and</strong> sailors, Social Security beneficiaries, warveterans, farmers <strong>and</strong> other individuals. Right now, about1,500 of these checks are stolen from house mail boxes <strong>and</strong>front halls every month. The KNOW YOUR EN-DORSER campaign warns persons expecting checks fromthe government to take them out of their mailboxes promptly.It shows merchants how to use special care in cashingPhone ATwater 1202 Dura-Lite' HoseOriginalGOODYEAR RUBBER COMPANYManufacturers MECHANICAL RUBBER GOODS- Factory in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>2400 THIRD STREET SAN FRANCISCOMission 1500STORK CLUBCHOICE LIQUORS354 SAN PABLO AVENUE EL CERRITO, CALIF.Telephone Richmond 3409The Original Pirates CavePIRATES' CAVEDELICIOUS SEA FOOD—STEAKS AND CHOPSOYSTER LOAVES TO TAKE HOME1032 MacDONALD AVENUE RICHMOND, CALIF.STERLING MERCHANDISE MARTGROCERIES <strong>and</strong> COLD MEATSTHIRD <strong>and</strong> CUTTING BOULEVARD RICHMOND, CALIF.Phone Richmond 2484 Dorothy BrooksALVARADO GARDENDANCING SEVEN NIGHTS A WEEKLiquor - Beer - Wine995 SAN PABLO AVENUE RICHMOND, CALIF.Phone LAkehurst 2-9959THE ISLAND CLUB2320 1/2 SANTA CLARA ALAMEDA, CALIF.ePhone Richmond 5472EVELYN'SCOATS, SUITS, DRESSES, MILLINERY927 MACDONALD AVE. 402 TENTH ST., Carquinez Hotel Bldg.RICHMOND, CALIF.Phone MArket 5966MICHEL & PFEFFERIRON WORKSHARRISON AND TENTH ST.

<strong>November</strong>, <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 69checks for strangers so as to prevent them from being victimizedor stuck by the check forger. You know theseforged checks bounce hack, <strong>and</strong> the careless merchants whocash them suffer big losses.In this check campaign we are proceeding as we didagainst the counterfeiter. We supplement our investigativemethods by a prevention campaign using the sloganKNOW YOUR ENDORSER—REQUIRE IDENTIFI-CATION. Our approach to the check problem has beendouble-barreled. In counterfeiting there is only one victim—the person who accepts the counterfeit. With checktheft <strong>and</strong> forgery of checks we must tackle two things.One is the theft of checks—the other the forgery of checks.Once again we've had wonderful cooperation from Chamhersof Commerce, Better Business Bureaus, hankers' associations,post office inspectors, police officers, schools, businessconcerns, the press, movies, <strong>and</strong> radio. With their aidwe are warning millions of people who regularly receivegovernment checks to take them out of their mailboxespromptly. Then they can't he stolen. However, many folksare at work or away when checks are delivered or fail toget the checks quickly. Then the letters containing thechecks are stolen from their mailboxes. The thief mustthen forge the name of the payee on the check in order tocash it; so we publicize widely to merchants <strong>and</strong> others athree-word warning: KNOW YOUR ENDORSER. Thuswe make check cashers conscious of the danger of forgeries.We urge them to dem<strong>and</strong> proper identification ofstrangers presenting checks. We persuade them to usespecial care before cashing checks for juveniles. And weexpose the tricks of the forged check passers.Since this campaign started, the number of forgeries permillion checks issued has been cut almost in half. Throughoutthe crime prevention program, millions of leaflets <strong>and</strong>posters were printed <strong>and</strong> distributed for the Secret Service,without cost to the government, by banks, business associations,<strong>and</strong> other commercial organizations. An importantpart of the check campaign has been the distribution ofseveral million KNOW YOUR ENDORSER warningplacards to stores.Our crime prevention story is that we eliminate opportunitiesfor the crook <strong>and</strong> make it tough for him to committhe crime. In this way we also reduce juvenile offenses.We inform the potential victim so the crook cannot swindlehim so easily.Other duties of the Secret Service are investigations pertainingto certain violations of the Gold Reserve Act ofBusiness Phone TR 6211 Res.

Nov ember , <strong>1945</strong> POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 71RELOCATION OF THE JAPANESEEXCERPTS OF ADDRESS B y ASSISTANT DIRECTOR R. B. COZZENS AT SAUNAS MEETING OF STATE PEACE OFFICERS<strong>Peace</strong> officers of California must take over those phasesof the job the War Relocation Authority is not empoweredto h<strong>and</strong>lc—most important, the task of protectingthe elemental rights of the evacuees as citizens <strong>and</strong> lawabidingaliens, the task of safeguarding their persons <strong>and</strong>their property against the attack of race baiters, hoodlums<strong>and</strong> v<strong>and</strong>als.This appeal was made by R. B. Cozzens, Assistant Directorof the War Relocation Authority, before the 2SthFIRST YANK IN TOKYO-A NISEI"The First Yank in Tokyo" didn't need any plasticsurgery as depicted in the film story currentlyon the movie screens of the nation, R. B. Cozzens,Assistant Director of WRA told the 25th Annual<strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong>' Convention at Salinas."The first Yank in Tokyo didn't need any plasticsurgery—he <strong>and</strong> many of his kind had Japanese faceswith American hearts <strong>and</strong> minds, with Americancourage <strong>and</strong> deep devotion to our Flag <strong>and</strong> our institutions,said Cozzens.Cozzens' statement was confirmed by Lieut. Col.Wallace H. Moore, G-2. South Pacific, who followedhim on the rostrum at the convention.Colonel Moore appealed for fair play to the familiesof the 20,000 Nisei in the United States Army,telling stories of their valuable contributions in intelligencework against the Japanese enemy. Col. Mooresaid these contributions, through interpretations <strong>and</strong>translations, saved thous<strong>and</strong>s of Caucasian Americanlives.Annual Convention of the <strong>Peace</strong> <strong>Officers</strong> of Californiaat Salinas, October 9.Said Mr. Cozzens: "As you may have read in the press,the War Relocation Authority will close the last of itscenters, except Tule Lake, by December 15, <strong>and</strong> its WestCoast offices a few months later. With so little time remainingfor WRA activity in this part of the country, Iam glad to have the opportunity to talk things over withyou, because you are out in the front line of every communitydifficulty."We now face the post war problems when tensions willhe strained further by personal economic crises of some ofthe new groups in the state. These problems will comeunder the headings of race <strong>and</strong> color <strong>and</strong> in some easeseven creed. Those of us who recognize the constitutionaldem<strong>and</strong>s for political <strong>and</strong> economic equality of all menmust also recognize that there are elements among us whoadhere to a long-rejected doctrine that this is a white man'scountry. Our two-front war was fought to defeat the conflictingtheories that this was it white man's world on theone h<strong>and</strong> or that it was a Japanese world on the other.Both theories having been blasted out of existence, it isassumed that we are now in a world that makes no colordistinction."Mr. Cozzens told the group that the War RelocationAuthority fully realizes the problems created for the peaceofficers by the return of the evacuees of Japanese ancestry."The whys <strong>and</strong> wherefores of the return of these peoplesaided by the U. S. Army authorities <strong>and</strong> with theapproval of the Department of Justice, must he explainedto some of the people in various communities," said Cozzens.The War Department has taken a prom 1ent st<strong>and</strong> inassisting the relocation work of the WRA, said Mr. Cozzens.Three officers who led Nisei soldiers in Italy <strong>and</strong>France, Captain George Gr<strong>and</strong>staff, Captain Thomas E.Crowley <strong>and</strong> Lieut. Roger Smith have toured California<strong>and</strong> the West Coast under War Department orders tellingthe story of the Nisei gallantry <strong>and</strong> loyalty. A fourth officer,Lieutenant Colonel Wallace H. Moore, one of thechiefs of the Intelligence Division in the South Pacific, iscurrently touring the state <strong>and</strong> telling audiences of themanner in which Americans of Japanese ancestry helpeddefeat the Japanese enemy.Public opinion, as expressed through the columns ofWest Coast newspapers, indicate a switch from four-toonewhich were unfavorable to the return of the Nisei ayear ago to four-to-one favorable press reactions at present.Veterans who have written letters to the editors of newspapersare unanimously against acts of intimidation <strong>and</strong>R.

So, the Department of Justiceis now the sole agency responsible for detention policies,<strong>and</strong> W'RA's job is almost purely one of relocationHowever, to offset the opposition to Japanese entertainedin some communities, Mr. Cozzens went on torelate:"Throughout this whole wartime period while theirparents, families <strong>and</strong> friends lived in WRA centers, youngNisei entered the American Army, the first of them asvolunteers <strong>and</strong> later others as inductees. You undoubtedlyknow of their valiant battle record in Europe. When thefamous 442nd combat team of .Japanese-Americ ins waschosen to lead the Fifth Army's V-J day pasade in Leghorn,Italy, in Augnst, the selection reflected more thanrecognition of the regiment's distinguished achievements.It was also, in effect, a reminder to a few nightriding hoodlumsrepresenting a few like-minded trouble makers in afew California counties, that the GI's were fed up withattempts to intimidate the parents <strong>and</strong> families of theirNisei comrades."Let no one make any mistake about it, the GI's ,.hohave been around where the fighting was hettest can becounted upon to oppose discrimination against Nieci veterans<strong>and</strong> their families. Infantrymen who fought in theline with the 442nd, whether in Italy or on the Franco-German border, say simply, 'It was a pretty rough outfit.There is a lot of GI meaning behind that phrase, a prettyrough outfit'."Of their work in Intelligence <strong>and</strong> language units in thePacific Theater, army men say:"Only God knows how many of us are alive today onlybecause we had those marvelous guys with us."Secretary of War Patterson, writing to Secretary of theInterior Harold Ickes, says: "The record of the Japanese'Americans accepted in the Army is one of which we canall be proud . . . it will compare favorably with the- recordof any other group. They have more than justified thfaith we placed in them."Mr. Cozzens completing his appeal, said: "As we lookahead to the immediate future, it is clear that the problemof helping the evacuee resume his rightful place in ournational life lies very largely in this sectioui of the country.Our joint task is to assist in the peaceful integration<strong>and</strong> adjustment of a group of people who, generally speaking,have been cooperative <strong>and</strong> well disciplined."BUY VICTORY BONDS AND STAMPSPhone MArket 1475VON'S FOOD CENTERAll Kinds of Vegetables <strong>and</strong> Groceries495 SANCHEZ STREET SAN FRANCISCOPACIFIC SHOE COMPANY451 WASHINGTON STREET SAN FRANCISCOPhone UNderhifl 521 IComplimentsGENE'S GROCERYS.

You have heard fromJohn Vincent, speaking for J. Edgar Hoover, regardingthe F. B. I. training. The men not actually in service shouldnot be given the intimate methods of h<strong>and</strong>ling police problems,because it is not something we should give to everyone.Therefore, we passed up the controversial issue oftraining, except in service.
