Bedeviled by long, hazardous hours, low pay, public abuse and unrealistic court decisions, policemen across the country are at an all-tim e low in morale. Is it any wonder that police departments are so dangerously undermanned that crime is flourishing?

Ass istant Atto rn ey General Fred Vin son, Jr., puts the I �2 THE READER'S DIGEST nationwide police sh ortage at a frightening 50,000. On the Run. New York's 73rd Precinct - the teeming Brownsville section of Brooklyn-is a microcosm of the national problem. Last summer, the "normal complement" of 374 men needed to safeguard the area was short by more than roo. Bone-weary officers put in r6-hour days in the attempt to maintain law and order. But they were no match for ma rauding criminals. Homicides soared. Stores were repeatedly burglarized . Policemen themselves were mugged in broad daylight. "They've got us on the run," an exhausted patrolman said bitterly. "And they know it." To remedy the situation, ew York officials have la unched a highpowered recruiting campaign. But their problem is not unique. Recruiters from the Washington, D.C., police department comb the eastern United States, a nd cannot fill the nearly 400 vacancies on their 3100man force. Meanwhile, crime in the nation's capital increased 38 percent in a recent 12-m onth period. Behind the cold statistics are the individuals who suffer: the mercha nt forced out of business by repeated holdups; the pretty teen-ager disfig ured for li fe by a n assailant's razor; the young housewife thrust into widowhood by an armed robber - and you may well be next. For make no mistake about it: every gap in the "thin blue line" means that more citizens get hurt. This was demonst rated vividly in mid-1966, when hundreds of Chicago police were taken off their regular beats to quell potential riots in the tense Eighth District. During this time, the city's crime soared 29.8 percent over the previous year, with increases recorded in 20 of 21 police districts. The sole exception: the Eighth District. H igh Risk, Low Pay. The shamefu l events of last summer, during which more than 100 communities were ravaged by riot, have made the police manpower situation even more acute.For example, 20 men had signed up to take the examination for admission to the undermanned P lainfield, .J., police department. Then came that city's riot, in the course of which a young patrolman was stomped to death by a savage mob. Only five of the applicants showed up to take the test. Of the five, only two qualified. In nearby ewark, a policeman threatening to turn in his badge said, "They just buried the best man I've ever known" -this of Frederick Toto, a decorated policema n shot to death by a sniper during the July riot. 'Tm not afraid, but m y wife's near a nervous b reakdown." But the riots are only part of it. In recent months I have traveled from one end of the country to the other, interviewing former policemen as well as harried young patrolmen who at least for now, are stick ing it out. From their stories t hi s dep lorable f inanci al picture emerges : Although the Office of Economic �OUR A L ARMING POLICE SHORTAGE Opportunity puts the pove rt y level a t $3200 for a non -farm fa mily of fou r, patrolmen in Di ck so n , Tenn., start at $2400 a year ; in Durant, Okla., at $2760; in Glasgow, Ky., at $3000. Coeur d 'A lene, Idaho, pays its patrolmen an annual ·$5280, but requires them to work 54-hour weeks . Salaries in large r citi es, while hig her, are nonetheless disg raceful. In Seattle, cable splicers ea rn $375 a month more than poli ce men; Chicago electri cia ns receive $1.40 an hour more than the patrolman on the bea t; carpenters in N ew York comma nd 50 percent m ore per hour than patrolmen. M oreover, the cable sp li cer, e lect rici a n a nd carpente r work 35- or 40-hour weeks, with genero us ove rtime. The policeman toils ni g h ts and holidays, rarely with overt im e, often under in cr edibl e stra in , hi s li fe freq uentl y in danger. In 1966, 23,000 poli cemen were assa ulted in the lin e of duty. More appa lling than low pay to m an y po li cemen is the att itude of the publi c. "I'm willing to take m y chances w ith the punks and the hoods," says a vetera n policeman in Balt imore. "A ll I ask is a li ttle support from the average citizen." Yet, all too often, peop le "wa lk the ot her way." Fo r h::i lf ::i n hour, t wo membe rs of t h e C a li fo rni a Hi g h way Patrol teetered on the edge of a bridge 185 feet above Sa n Pedro Bay, st ruggling to save a man bent on suicide. Agai n and aga in they shouted for help to passing cars. Not one driver stopped, or even bothered 3 to ca ll for aid when he reached the end of the bridge. In another insta nce, a Sa n Fran cisco policeman attempted to arrest two drunks on a downtown street. Forty minutes late r he was ca rried into San Fra ncisco General Hospital, his cheek slas hed open, his nose broken . "The crowd just let them beat m e," he sa id . "People act as if the police were their enemies." Case Dismissed. A nother m ajor factor in the sorry state of police morale is th e se ries of vague and loosely wo rded Supreme Court rulings handed down in rece nt years. Consider these typical cases reported to the Senate Subcommittee on C rimin al L aws a nd P rocedures: • " Thi s fe llow went throug h a red lig ht a nd ran into me," an a ng ry motorist told the policem an dispatc hed to the scene of a traffic acci dent in Providence, R.I . " Is that so?" the officer inqu ired of the second motor ist. The latter ad mi tted that he had indeed run the li g ht. Later, the case aga in st him was thrown out of co urt . Why? Th e poli cema n had fa iled to notify him of hi s rig hts, as required by the Supreme Court's 1966 Mira nda decisi on,* before asking, " ls that so'" • An officer in Torran ce, Ca lif., picked up two young men on narcotics cha rges.

Tot good enough, Judge Otto Willett ruled in dismissing the charges. What the officer should have said, Willett declared, was, "You have the right to the services of an attorney prior to any questioning." The defendants left the cou rtroom gn nnmg . " itpicking of this kind h;r.; had a disastrous effect on our force," says Lt. L ee J. As hma n, head of the T orrance narcotics squad. "Some veteran officers have become so frustrated they've simp ly quit." Turnstile Justice. Just as demoralizing is the cava lier attitude that m any judges have toward juvenile crime. Co nsider the case 0£ Harry Sylvester Jones, Jr., a Washing ton, D.C., delinquent who was g iven an earl y release from reform schoolonl y to embark on a criminal career that included rape, auto theft and g rand larceny. Sentenced to prison three times in eig ht years, Jones was three times released on parole or p robation. Within seven m onths after he was released for the third tim e, he had raped two women at kni fe-point, stabbed a nother nine times as she knelt in church, and committed his third rape against a 54-yea r-old wom an he trapped in an elevator. Jones is ha rd ly unique. Police fil es in every state bulge with cases in which innocent members of society pay fo r the mistakes of unrealistic judges and pa role o fficers. The careers of Gregory Ulas Powell and 4 Jimmy L ee Smith, young Cali forn ians who had amassed 25 arrests by the time they were 30, are depressingly typical. On the night of M arch 9, 1963, en route to their fi fth robbery in two weeks, Powell a nd Smith were stopped for a defective taill ig ht by Los Angeles policemen Ian James Campbell and K arl Hettinger. The unsuspecting officers were promptly kidnaped at g u npoint, d riven n o rt h in to K e rn County an d m arched on to a deserted field . As the officers stood with their hands raised, Powell calmly fired a .32-caliber bu llet into Campbell's mouth. Hettinger whirled and ra n, miraculously escaping as Powell soug ht to gun him down and Smith pumped four more slug s into the dying Campbell. The lesson to be learned from that March night is the folly of turnstile justice. Campbell's killers were both- on parole. Eight tim es they had been the recipients of judicia l leniency in the form of conditional release, parole or probation. N or has their luck run out. C aptured within hours of the murder, the two were convicted a nd sentenced to death . But, last July, the Ca liforni a Suprem e Court reversed the convictions on the ground that the defendants had not been fully ad vised o f their rig hts, and ordered a new tria l, perhaps p roviding a noth e r oppo rt u nit y to prove tha t crime does pay.

Since then, enlisti ng more than 60,000 women in its ranks, the Crusade has won badly needed pay hikes for the Indianapolis police, lobbied for effective anti-crime measures and sat in on more than 80,000 court cases to keep local judges on their toes.

Those who resort to such moronic behavior are surely lost in the depths of depravity. Obviously, their first loyalty is not to the United States. emphasized and excluded from several phases of our life. Many educators and other leaders seem to feel it is no longer necessary for boys and girls to be concerned with how our country came into being, what it stands for, and the courageous and noble deeds of our forefathers to preserve it. True, our Nation is founded on concepts and principles which encourage dissent and opposition. These are traditions we must always defend and support. But touching a torch to the flag far exceeds reasonable protest. It is a shameful act which serves no purpose but to encourage those who want our country to erupt in violence and destruction. Conditions are now such in some circles that an individual who professes love of his country, reverence for its flag, and belief in the principles which make our Nation great is considered a yokel. Open aversion to patriotism of any form is increasing. Even some news media take a "tongue-in-cheek" approach to persons and groups which promote and pa1iicipate in patriotic endeavors. Love of one's country is treated as some kind of social disease to be tolerated, if not stamped out. Protests are made that too much patriotism leads to international conflict. I submit that the United States will never have anything to fear from its ardent and genuinely patriotic citizens. On this 191st anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we might ask what causes unpatriotic outbursts and irrational protests. Why do people turn against their native land and openly support totalitarian forces whose goal is to enslave the world- forces which do not even allow token opposition from their subjects ? Why do some individuals refuse to serve and defend their country? Why do they burn their draft cards and their flag? There may be many reasons for such action, but I am fully convinced that dying patriotism is one major cause. Love of country is being de- JULY 1, 1967 American history proves that freedom and liberty come at high prices and that their upkeep is costly and time-consuming. As Daniel Webster so aptly put it, " God grants libe1iy only to those who love it and are always ready to guard and defend it. Let our object be our country . . . "-not our country the object of desecration and abuse. �An American Policeman • 1n England Lt. ROBERT C. MITCHELL Multnomah County Departmen t of Public Safety, Portland, Oreg. Lightweight motorcycles are used to patrol extensive rural beats. An American police officer, for a period of 6 months, exchanged home, car, and job with his English counterpart in an experiment in the observation of police work in a foreign country. �Law Enforcement Foreign Exchange Experiment 0 n April 1, 1966, I began a 6month tour of duty with the Lancashire Constabulary, England's second largest police force. At the same time, Chief Insp. John P. Kennard, of the Lancashire force, was assigned to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office, Portland, Oreg., to study our organization and methods. To the best of our knowledge, this was the first direct exchange of police personnel between an American and a foreign police agency. I t should not be the last. The exchange was total in that we traded houses and a utomobiles as well as jobs during this period . Personal problems arose almost immediately, b ut none were beyond solution. For example, both of our insurance companies had to be contacted and their feelings determined as to continued insurance coverage on the automobiles. Chief Inspector Kennard I fo und that the fir ms with which we dealt were fascinated by the idea of the exchange and were more than glad to give us their full cooperation. My own children are grown, but Chief Inspector and Mrs. Kennard were bringing their two daughters, Paula, age 3, and Alison, age 9, to the United States. Our local elementary school was delighted with the idea of enrolling Alison for the balance of the school term. House payments and the forwarding of pay were left in the competent hands . of the assistant cashier of our bank. Advantages of Venture There are tremendous advantages, both personal and professional, for the police officer chosen to participate in such a venture. The exposure to different concepts, tools, techniques, and training methods is bound to create a thirst for further knowledge. The exchange certainly changed any_preconceived ideas of ours about the " typical" Englishman. We had prnbably seen too many motion pie- tures depicting stereotyped roles of the English and heard too many jokes about their lack of a sense of humor. We found a warmhearted, generous, and hospitable people with a sense of humor as keen as our own. There are differences in living conditions, monetary systems, and many of the things which we take for granted in -t he United States. We found no real difficulty in adapting to these differences. Housing, or a housing allowance, is provided for the British policeman by his force. Thus we found ourselves housed in one of a row of nine police houses. They were more or less identical, of standard brick construction, and heated by coal fireplaces. Our neighbors were policemen and their families. Some of the friendships formed with our neighbors will last a lifetime. I believe that living under these conditions proved the necessity of a n Chief Supt. William Little (right), uN" Division (Ashton-Unde r-Lyne ), and Lie ute nant Mitche ll. a'~a July 1967 3 �and as a result we both found ourselves being invited to speak to various civic organizations. It is our hope that we left a good impression of Americans with those organizations. The Unarmed Police Lieutena nt Mitchell chats with offi cers in the communications section, a vita l public service in all police departments. officer involved in such an exchange being accompanied by his wife a nd famil y. It would have been difficult, if not impossible, fo r a single man to have fitted in with the fa mily atmosphere of this police community. Scope o f the Exchange Inasmuch as this was to be a new experience, neither my sheriff nor I was in a position to know just what we should consider as the scope of the experiment. I was given specific a reas to study : The penal system, the use of the summons as opposed to physical arrest, and the relationship of the British police with the public they serve. Beyond these three points, I was given a free hand to delve into anything I felt would be of value to us. Chief Constable Col. T. Eric St. Johnston was on a world tour at the time of my arrival, but he had left instructions that I was not to be " desk bound" but was to be left ver y much as a free agent to come and go as I 4 saw fit. Visits had been scheduled for me with police fo rces in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Isle of Man. Although b ased at Lancashire Constabular y Headquarters, I visited each of its 18 divisions as well as 15 other police forces, In every case I was given any information I requested, shown anything I wished to see, and given free access to anything I fo und of interest. Each fo rce visited had ar ranged both professional and social engagements which they felt would be of value and interest to both Mrs. Mitchell and me. As a result, we h ad access to ma ny places and activities that no tourist would ever have. Thro ugh these programs we were able to broaden our outlook far beyond the confines of the police service. Being cast in the role of an ambassador of good will came as something of a surprise, but both my wife and I fo und ourselves placed in this position. P ress and television coverage of the exchange was quite extensive, After 22 years of close association with a sidearm, it was both pleasant and disconcerting to find myself work ing with policemen who neither use firearms nor care to use them. This, of course, was the first difference to be encountered in our two police systems and was the one on which I was most often questioned. The arming of the British police became the subj ect of a great deal of public controversy when Detective Sgt. Chris Head and P olice Constables Geoffrey F ox and David W ombwell were slain in London on August 12, 1966. Oddly enough, the police were not nearly as enthusiastic about being armed as the public was about a rming them. In my opinion the answer to this problem may lie in stiffer prison sentences for those criminals wh o use a gun against an unarmed society and unarmed police fo rces. The British policeman has spent nearly 150 years in building the tradition of keeping the peace without the use of firearms. This is a tradition which should be kept as long as it is possible to do so. I t would be h ighly improper if I were to create the impression that the police are completely inept in the use of firearms. Every force has a num ber of men trained in the use of weapons, and the equipment i available for issue when it is needed . Standard ization The British police enjoy a standardization of many elements of the police service that may not be attainable in the United States. P a y scales are the same in all E ngli h forces, with the exception of London, which FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin �allows a cost-of-living adjustment. Entrance requirements may vary slightly from force to force, but conditions of service are the same in all forces. This standardization is also found in training, uniforms, and retirement benefits. It would appear that the key to standardization is the 50 percent grant from the national treasury of the annual budget of each police force. Every force is inspected annually by one of Her Majesty's Inspectors of Constabulary. His report, indicating that the force is up to standards, determines whether the grant will be allo wed. Although placin g chief constables in a ver y advantageous position when presenting the p olice budget to their local authority, this system does place the national government squarely in the local police picture. Any suggestions presented to the chief constables by the Home Secretary will usually be implemented. Without a doubt, this is the major factor in achieving the uniformity which I found so impressive. Training Program The value of standardization is most apparent in the training program. England is divided into eight geographic police districts, each with a district training center. Recruits from every force in the district train together and take the same 13-week basic training course. This concept of training is possible where criminal law is national in scope rather than regional, as in our own State statutes. Women police constables in patrol cars undertake the same duties as the men but especially concern themselves with cases involving women and children. The police car is white so that it can be readily identified as a police vehicle. Training does not stop at the recruit level. Inservice training is carried out within the forces, · and refresher courses are offered at the district trammg center. Specialized courses are frequently given in the larger forces with vacancies in the class held open for officers from surrounding forces. One of the more interesting inservice training courses is the refresher course for sergeants of the Lancashire Constabulary. It is based on a concept of three R's: 1. Relax-by virtu e of short hours, no pres- sure, and long weekends. 2. Refre sh- the officer's kn owl edge of th e latest laws and court decisions. 3. Ren ew- the officer's enthusiasm for his job, the department, and th e future. Supt. Walter Butterworth, now retired, assured me that the relaxed atmosphere, the roundtable conference approach to teaching, a nd the complete lack of pressure do send the men back to their posts with a far better outlook on their job. The Police College at Bramshill is the seat of higher education for the whole of the English police service. The 6-month Senior Staff Course trains officers of the rank of inspector and above to assume the highest posts in the police service. The Intermediate Command Course, lasting 3 months, is designed to train inspectors and chief inspectors in the responsibilities of posts held by superintendents and chief superintendents. Sergeants and newly promoted inspectors attend the 6-m onth " A" Course to prepare them for the duties of inspector and chi ef inspector. The Special Course impressed me with the potenti al of hav in g tremendous impact on the British police service of the future. Young offi cers of outstanding pro mise, wh o have passed hi gh ) n pro motio nal examinations, are assig ned to this 1-year course under a q uota system. They are given the temporar y ra nk of sergeant 5 �for the duration of the course, the rank being made permanent after the successful conclusion of their studies. There are a number of scholarships available for the outstanding officers in the class to continue on to university studies. I would hope that the P olice College program could be expanded to accommodate far more students. The coll~ge graduated 448* men and women in 1965 from a total authorized police strength of about 95,000. Crime prevention and public relations are sometimes treated as sepa- On the day I inspected this installation, police were keeping a parking lot and a city street with a high crime rate under surveillance.

Most of the forces I visited had assigned offi cers to the crime prevention detail on a full-tim e basis, and these men were very devoted to the program. In addition to the expected posters, pamphlets, and personal contacts with business people, I found two techniques th at were of great interest.

Displays
Also of particular interest and value
are large assortments of locks and security devices displayed by most crime
prevention officers and · provided

officers pointed out that the businessman should be invited to the police
station to view these displays privately. There was a strong suspicion that
the local burglars would enjoy attending any public display of such security devices.
During my tour in England, I had
the pleasure of visiting the following police departments: Lancashire

�Search
of
Motor
Vehicles
This is the fifth of a series of articles
discussing the Fecleral law on search
of motor vehicles.
VI. Consent Searches
The constitutional p r o t e ct i o n
against unreasonable searches and
seizures provided by the fourth
amendment can be waived by the express consent of the person whose·
property is to be searched. On Lee v.
U.S., 343 U.S. 74-7 (1952 ) . Because
of the obvious advantages it offers
over the search by warrant or incidental to arrest, the consent search
has become a popular method of
sec uring evidence from suspected offenders. Where properly obtained
from the party in interest, it _avoids
the requirements of probable cause
and particularity of description necessary to a valid warrant. And since
it need not be tied to an arrest, the
contemporaneo us factors of time and
place associated with the incidental
search are also inapplicable. But it is
precisely because thi s technique circumvents these traditi onal safeguards
of privacy that consent searches are
looked upon with disfavor by the
courts.
When one consents to a search of his
automobile, it is said that he waives
any constitutional right of privacy he
might otherwise en joy over the vehicle or any property contained therein. And as in all situations involving
a waiver of fundamental constitutional rights, it can be expected that
the pr,osccution will have to meet a
hi gh standard of proof. Johnson v.
Zerbst, 304 U.S. 458 ( 1938) . In general, the limitations set on consent
searches are the same considerations
that have been employed in the past
in determining the voluntariness of
confessions. Thus the courts have held
that consent must be given in circum263-817 0 - 67- - 2
stances free of "d uress or coercion,"
that it be " knowingly and intelligently:' given, and that it be stated in
a "clear and unequivocal" manner.
Because these determinations generally involve inquiries into the subjective state of mind of the suspect, the
officer, or both, they present practical
difficulties in judicial supervision
which more often than not are resolved in favor of the criminally
accused.
A. Duress or Coercion
Applicability of the fourth amendment guaranty of immunity from unreasonable searches or seizures is not
dependent upon any affirmative assertion by the private citizen. U.S. v.
Rembert, 284. F. 996, 998 (1922);
Dacle v. State, 188 Okla. 677, 112 P.
2d 1102 (1941) . To hold otherwise
would require the individual to make
the difficult choice either of challengin g the officer's authority, perhaps by
force, or waiving his constitutional
rights through inaction. I bicl. Thus,
in many cases where a consensual
situation is in issue, there is no overt
indication that the person voiced objection or otherwise contested the
search. The courts must therefore look
to the surrounding circumstances to
determine whether or not the purported consent was induced by pressure or coercion. Peaceful submission
under such circumstances is not consent but simply acquiescence to higher
authority and cannot lawfully support
a search without a warrant. U.S. v.
Rembert, supra; Johnson v. U.S., 333
U.S. 10 (194-8) ; Amos v. U.S. , 255
U.S. 313 (1921).
There is, of course, no easy yardstick by which to measure the degree
7
�of coercion or duress necessary to
vitiate an expressed consent, for this
must depend upon the characteristic
facts of each case. Nonetheless, it is
possible to identify several factors
which generally influence the courts in
making this determination. It has
been held, for example, that the attitude and conduct of the advising officer are an important consideration,
particularly where they might indicate
that he had intended to search in any
event. If he states peremptorily,
"Open the glove compartment," or "I
want to look in the trunk of your car,"
it is likely that this will be viewed as
coercive. The courts have also pointed
to such factors as undue emphasis on
authority and even an aggressive manner as being sufficient to invalidate
consent. U.S. v. Kelih, 272 Fed. 484
(1922). Similarly, the time of night,
U.S. v. Roberts, 179 F. Supp. 478
(1959), number of officers seeking
consent, U.S. v. Alberti, 120 F. Supp.
171 ( 1954,) , display of weapons or
other symbols of authority, U.S. v.
Marquette, 271 Fed. 120 (1920), or
presence of the suspect's family during questioning, Catalanotte v. U.S.,
208 F. 2d 264, (1953) , all tend to
create a strong implication of CO·
ercion.
It is important therefore that the
police avoid use of demanding words
or gestures or any comment which
might be construed to mean that the
subj ect has no ch oice but to allow a
search. This issue often arises when an
officer threatens to procure a search
war rant if consent is not given. It has
been held by some courts that permission given under these circumstances is a mere submission to a uthority and that the individual yields
his rights only because he feels there
is no reasonable alternative but to
consent. U.S. v. Baldacci, 42 F. 2d
567 (1930); U.S . v. Dix on, 117 F.
Supp. 925 (194-9) ; see also, Weecl v.
U.S., 340 F. 2d 827 (1965 ).
On the other hand, it is arguable
8
that knowledge that one cannot lawfully prevent a search indefinitely
may enable him to make a more intelligent decision as to whether and
how much he will cooperate. It is not
required, of course, that the individual desire a search be made of his
property, but only that he make a
free and voluntary choice on the matter. Accordingly, some cases hold that
where the officer in good faith informs a party of the likelihood that a
~varrant will be issued, he does no
more than advise the _suspect of the
legal alternatives confronting him,
and, i"n the absence of any aggravating circumstances, this factor alone
will not invalidate the consent. Simmons v. Bomar, 230 F. Supp. 226
(1964) .
This line of reasoning is implicit in
Hamilton v. State of North Carolina,
290 F. Supp. 632 (1966 ) , wh ere po·
lice, alerted to a recent safe robber y,
arrested the defendant near his automobile. The arresting officer asked for
permission to search the car, stating
that he did not have a warrant with
him but could get one if necessar y.
The defendant replied, "There is no
need of that. You can search the car ."
He then handed the keys to the officer
who searched the vehicle and found a
pistol. In denying a petition for
habeas corpus, the Federal district
court ruled, " The fact that the officer
told [the defendant] that he did
not have a search warrant but that he
could get one is immaterial." Citing
an earlier appellate decision, the court
stated, " a defendant cannot assert the
illegality of a search made with his
consent, though given in response to
a threat to procure a search warrant."
!cl. at 635. See, Gatterdam v. U.S. ,
5 F. 2d 673 ( 1925 ); K ershner v.
Boles, 212 F. Supp. 9 ( 1963 ), modified and aff'd, Boles v. Kershner, 320
F. 2d 284, ( 1963) . There is common
agreement, however, that if the consent is obtained through fra ud, deception, or misrepresentation regard-
mg either the officer's authority or
intention to secure a formal warrant,
the search will be invalid. Bolger v.
U.S., 189 F. Supp. 237 (1960 ) , a:ff'd
293 F. 2d 368, rev'd on other grounds,
371 U.S. 392 ( 1963 ) ; Pekar v. U.S.,
315 F. 2d 319 (1965 ) ;U.S. v. Wallace, 160 F. Supp. 859 (1958) .
One of the more troublesome issues
of consent arises when permission to
conduct a warrantless search is obtained from one who is under arrest
or otherwise subj ected to official restraint. Since intimidation and duress
are necessarily implicit in such situations, it is especially difficult for the
prosecution to convince the court that
the waiver was given free from negating pressure or ·c oercion. U.S. v. Wallace, 160 F. Supp. 859 (1958 ) . But
while some courts consistently view
consent given b y one in police custody
as invalid, Judd v. U.S., 190 F . 2d 649
(D.C. Cir . 1951 ), most Federal courts
will inquire into the total circumstances of the case. Burke v. U.S. 328
F. 2d 399 (1st Cir.) , cert. denied, 379
U.S. 84.9 ( 1964); U.S . v. Paradise,
253 F . 2d 319 (2d Cir. ) (1958 ) ; U.S.
v. Perez, 242 F . 2d 867 (2d Cir. ),
cert. denied, 354, U .S. 941 ( 1957 ) ;
Gendron v. U.S ., 227 F. Supp. 182
(1964,) ; Kershner v. Boles, supra;
Hamilton v. State of No rth Carolina,
supra.
On the other hand, where condi tions of the restraint indicate a high
probability of intimidation, consent
by the person in custody will usually
be invalid. This is often the result
when a display of firea rms or other
open show of force is made during
the course of the arrest. Thus, in one
case police officers, exhibiting drawn
pistols and riot gun, stopped the defendant's veh icle an d placed the occupants under arrest fo r vagrancy a nd
auto theft. One of the offi cers asked
the defendan t, Weed, about a vehicle
parked approximately one and onehalf blocks a way from the scene of

�A New Application of an Established Technique-
Less
[seeing I
Looking
More
While
Law
enforcement officials are constantly seeking new and productive
means to solve old and persistent problems. Rapid technological advances
mark the pattern of growth of today's
police forces, but sometimes a new
and modified application of an old
method proves highly effective.
Such is the case with the proposal
presented in 1964 to the California
Peace Officer's Training Division by
the California Optometric Association. In charge of the research proposal was Dr. Arthur Heinsen of San
Jose.
In 1964 vision science as applied
to law enforcement was a new application of an already known and established training technique. During
World War II many courses were developed for aircraft spotters and other
military personnel receiving tachistoscopic training. Such a course conJuly 1967
sisted of Hashing silhouettes of various aircraft, naval vessels, and other
military equipment on a screen for a
fraction of a second. With speedy
identification as their ultimate goal,
the military was very successful with
this type of training. However, after
the war, the consequent reduction of
a constant need created obsolescence
for the tachistoscopic training.
With an official of the California
State Department of Education, Dr.
Heinsen and I explored the feasibility
of a pifot research study to present
a new application of the tachistoscopic
tramm g. Our final project involved
the development of an optometric
program applicable to law enforcement personnel and suitable for possible incorporation by the department
of education into a teaching manual.
The manual would then be available
to local law enforcement agencies

�which would be able to conduct their
own local program.
The necessary funds for the pr oj ect
were made possible by a contract
grant from the department of education to the California Optometric Association to develop and prepare a
teaching syllabus that included equipment, supplies, and training aids.
Early in the development of the program, it became increasingly evident
that at least one complete course would
have to be offered prior to completion
of a syllabus worthy of distribution.
Accordingly, the Rio Hondo Junior
College participated in a National Defense Education Act grant which provided matching funds for the cost of
initiating this type of pilot program.
Three-Part Program
The theor y of vision was the first
a rea wherein the optometrist could apply already established and known
training procedures. Already in use
and available for application to this
program was a basic slide series prepared by Dr. Ralph Schrock of Chula
Vista. This excellent slide series was
used in the beginning phases of train. ing with the tach istoscope. The use
of symbols, such as numbers, letters,
and geometric configurations, applies
training techniques similar to those
currently used in speedreading. This
method begins by h aving the students
view one digit for a fraction of a second and thereafter three, four, five,
and more digits. This allows the students to develop their perception and
" after-image recall" so that they perceive more in a given time period.
As a second step, the motivation fo r
police officer personnel required the
use of numerous law enforcement
"s~enes," which were prepared in cooperation with the Los Angeles P olice
Department and the Los Angeles
County Sheriff's Department. As a
one-man patrol unit, an officer remains extremely busy while driving
25 miles an h our on routine patrol, operating his radio, and referring to a
list of stolen cars. When he passes an
alley, he has but a fraction of a second to glance down it and determine
whether any police action is needed.
Frequently, he is already past the alley
at the time of his mental reconstruction of the perceptual "after image."
T his was only one of the many areas
that were developed to orient the program toward law enforcement.
Students in the program use p eriph e ral s timulators to increase more accurate fi xa tions.
The initial phase of letters and numbers rendered itself very naturally to
the speedy identification and recognition of license plate numbers. After
the initial slide series, numerous license plates were flashed on the screen
and, thereafter, pictures of autom obiles were placed on the screen to simulate various driving conditions which
might be encountered by the patrol
officer.
The third phase involved actual eye
training, using specialized equipment
developed by Dr . Schrock in cooperation with the Keystone View Co.
The first pilot program was ready
and offered on a test basis in the
spring semester of 1965 at Rio Hondo
Junior College. The course was designed to cover 30 h ours on the basis
of a 2-hour class twice a week. However , the initial pilot course was for
34, h ours, with the additional h ours at
the beginning a nd end devoted completely to testing. T his comprehensive testing si:rved to properly evaluate the total project and was not
merely a part of the traihing program.
T esting With a Control Group
Twenty-six students from 14 different law enforcement agencies started
the program. A group of 25 officers
from the Los Angeles P olice Department's cadet class was chosen as the
control group. Accordingly, both
groups were tested with tachistoscopic
slides and a series of timed tests developed by the Califo rnia Test Bureau.
The parts of the multiple aptitude tests
that were used were :
( 1 ) Factor II: P erceptual Speed:
Test 3-Language Usage.
Test 4--Routine Clerical
Facility.
(2) F actor IV : Spatial Visualization.
Test 8-Spatial Relations,
two dimension.
Test 9- Spatial Relations,
three dimension.
FBI Law Enforcemen t Bulleti n
�The group scheduled to undergo the
training was further tested for peripheral vision and possible vision deficiencies. Two of the students needed
glasses, but they were allowed to continue the program and their improvement was measured accordingly.
Because of its initial testing and its
research problems, the pilot course
was conducted by local optometrists,
Dr. Homer Hendrickson and Dr. Luprelle Williams. These two optometrists studied , reevaluated, and rewrote the course as it progressed.
In short, the course consisted of
three basic phases for each session.
The first phase involved vision theory,
which explained the functions of vision memory and the various structures which permit vision . The second phase of instruction revolved
around tachistoscopic training, using
the basic law enforcement slide series.
The third pha3e involved actual exercise and development of vision skills
throu gh use of optometric equipment
developed by Keystone Co. The vision science kits included stereoscopes, plus and minus lenses, peripheral stimulators, and chiro-3copic
drawings as well as manuals on their
use. Two students used a kit on a
"coach-buddy" system. It should be
noted that the kits cost $125 each and
refill consumable supplies for each kit
cost $25.
At the completion of the course, both
gro ups we re again tested. Comparison of the two sets of tests provided
an evaluative basis inasmuch as the
Los Angeles P olice Department cadets
had been given no specialized visual
training. The results were evalu ated
by Dr. Melvin H. Dunn , an analytical psychologist and chairman of special services education at the University of Nevada, Reno, Nev. His
complete report confirms that there
was a high degree of improvement on
the part of the trainin g program
g ro up. Definite improvement was
achieved in speed and adjustment of

fo cus, span of perception, and "afterimage recall." In addition , Dr.
Dunn's report indicates the training
was more beneficial for yo unger students than it was for older students.
There also appeared to be a correlation between I.Q. and vision ability.
The self-evaluation reports prepared
by the sudents indicated certain unexpected
benefits. One
student
stated he was an avid golfer and that
the course had taken five or six
strokes off hi s handicap because he
was able to judge distances more accurately. Another
student
who
played in a semiprofessional softball
league indicated his batting average
had improved over 20 percent.
Additional Studies
Followup 3tudies made 6 months
later indicated a reduction in proficiency. The optometrists felt that
this loss could be reduced to a negligible percentage if the trained officers
were assigned to patrol functions exclusively after their training. This
procedure might help the officers
maintain their acuity through prac-
tice. The expected net result of the
officer's maintenance of his improved
visual acuity is the reality of a "foureyed" one-man patrol unit.
The coune, taught by Dr. Williams,
was again offered by the college in the
spring of 1966, at which time several
preservice police science students
were also enrolled. The improvement
noted after the course was very similar to that in the pilot pro gram; however, the improvement was much
greater in the younger students between the ages of 19 and 22, thereby
suggesting that this training be conducted for recruits rather than for
older officers. The college is offering
the course again this year.
The California State Department ·o f
Education is proceedin g with the production of the teaching syllabus as
well as conducting programs throughout the State. Dr. Williams is most
satisfied with the results of the program and feels very strongly that this
course can be presented throughout
the country if it is taught by an optometrist who is familiar with the program. Rio Hondo Junior College has
added this course to its vast police curriculum.

�A Public Safety
Cruiser

WARREN DODSON
Th e A bilene sa fety cruisers have the necessary equipment for any emergency.
Chief of Police,
Abilene, Tex.
Abilene to the public safety cruiser
which was inaugurated in February
of 1963. Since then its sound in
emergency situations has become a
source of comfort and solace to many
of Abilene's citizens.
Purpose of Cruiser
"D
ogs were once content to howl
at train whistles, fire trucks, and
Civil Defense sirens. Now they have
another electronic tormentor. It's the
'yelper' on the Abilene Police Department's new public safety cruiser.
Every time the powerful wagon roars
off to the scene of a bad wreck or
other emergency, the dogs join in the
chorus."
This excerpt from an article which
appeared in the Abilene Reporter
News shows the immediate reaction of

FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin
Capable of performing a multitude
of tasks relating to public welfare and
safety, our public safety cruiser is
a multipurpose police unit designed
and equipped to render service and
protection for citizens while aiding in
the enforcement of laws.
As a police unit, public safety officers are responsible for the enforcement of all laws of the State of Texas
and the city of Abilene. They respond to all calls of the police
dispatcher just as any other police
unit. The safety cruiser is assigned
to a district to patrol with due regard
for the enforcement of all laws including those pertaining specifically to
traffic. However, as a specialty unit,
it is not assigned to investigate traffic
accidents, handle domestic problems,
or transport prisoners. Likewise, it
July 1967
is not required to respond to calls involving misdemeanors~ unless the call
is an emergency.
As a public safety unit, it responds
to all major accidents where persons
are injured for the purposes of rendering first aid, releasing trapped persons, and preventing fire. The cruiser
responds to all calls of an emergency
nature, such as drowning cases in
which they use scuba diving equipment to dive, locate, and recover the
victims and render what first aid is
possible. When the fire department
arrives on the scene with its equipment for dragging, etc., the public
safety officers assist as directed by
commanding officers of the fire or
police department. The unit also responds to any call concerning unconscious or seriously injured people,
_ like those suffering from heat exhaustion, strokes, poisoning, asphyxiation,
electrical shock, or heart attack. The
unit frees trapped persons and removes and destroys the explosive in
cases involving an explosion or explosive material. Under normal circumstances, this unit does not respond
to calls involving gunshot or knife
wounds unless so directed and then
op.ly to render what first aid is needed
at the scene or to act as a backup unit.
As a fire patrol unit, the . public
safety cruiser responds to all fire
alarms and upon arrival extinguishes
all small fires that can be controlled
with a hand extinguisher, if the fire
department unit has not arrived. At
all major fires, the public safety officers are under the immediate control
of the fire department supervisors and
carry out their orders immediately to
the best of their abilities. While on
patrol, our officers always watch for
fire hazards and notify the fire department of any encountered.
The public safety cruiser never, under any circumstances, operates as an
ambulance. However, in many cases
the assistance of the public safety
officers is needed by the ambulance attendant. In such cases, one of our
officers ( the cruiser is a two-man
unit) will accompany the victim in
the ambulance to the hospital and will
render aid and assistance if necessary.
The public safety cruiser is not a
rescue unit per se, nor is it an ambulance, but it is basically a police
13
�unit fully equipped to handle all types
of emergencies.
Services Rendered
"Send the safety cruiser" has become the most common request at
the Abilene Police Department. In
ali emergencies, both large and small,
our citizens have come to rely on the
se.rvices rendered by the cruiser.
Many of the calls are humorous (such
as, " My cat is caught in the air conditioner"), but others are tragic and
often fraught with danger for our
safety officers. Recently, on an attempted suicide -call, the person threatenino- suicide was located in a garage,
. o
H
holding a razor to his wrist. . e refused to lay the razor down. One
of the safety officers calmly talked to
the disturbed person and grabbed the
razor away from his wrist while the
other officers assisted in restraining
the individual.
During the first 14 months, the
cruiser made 740 emergency calls.
Out of this total number of calls,
emergency oxygen was administered
to 83 people. Man y of these first calls
involved life- or-death situations.
\
Record of Service
In the 3½ years that the cruiser
has been in existence, we have a record of first aid bein g administered
983 times. The resuscitator has been
used 294 times, the scuba diving
equipment 9 times, and the fire extinguishers 79 times. The safety
officers have administered a rtificial
respiration 18 times and assisted in
sav ing 20 persons wh o had attempted
suicide.
Th ey also performed ma ny min or
services, such as in cases involvin g
citizens who had locked themselves
out of their cars or homes, fin gers

One phase of training given by our
local physicians has come in handy a
number of times-how to deliver a
baby. Incidentally, the first baby delivered by our public safety officers
was 1 year to the day from the time
they began their duties. Since that
time a number of Abilene's "young
o-eneration" has arrived with the aso
sistance of the safety officers. In one
case the parents honored the officers
by naming the new arrival after them.
Last year, during the national scare
that dolls shipped home to loved ones
by servicemen in Vietnam might be
booby trapped, these officers, who are
thoroughly trained in the handling of
explosives, checked more than 500 of
these dolls. However, they found
none containing explosives.
SCUBA Gear
The SCUBA diving gear ha.:5 been a
real asset to our police department
as well as to the public. In some
cases, the public safety officers have
retrieved discarded evidence from one
of the three large lakes nea r Abilene.
In cases involving a possible drownin O'
rr one officer begins dressing for

ready to don the underwater breathing apparatus when he arrives. In
one such incident where a double
drowning was reported at Lake For:t
Phantom Hill, both bodies were recovered within 5 minutes after our
cruiser arrived at the scene of the
emergency. While the diver goes into
the water, his partner maintains the
safety line and has the resuscitator
read y to administer oxygen when th e
victims are located.
The most co mmon treatment given
by the offi cers is to apply a medical
swab to a cut or laceration a nd an
anti septic bandage while awaitin g the
ambulance at the scene. They apply
an air splint to broken limbs q uite
often also. Thi s p rocedure is of grea t
assistan ce to the hospital because it
allows them to make an X-ray without
removing the splint.
Emergency Procedure
Since it stays in-service at all times,
the cruiser seldom is preceded to the
scene of an emergency by an ambulance. Because it is on call for
emergencies, both officers are never
out of the cruiser at once except at
the scene of an emergency. This
policy is also true in cases where the
public safety officer is writing a traffic
citation. If, in an y case, the officers
have to be out of the car at the same
time, they are able to switch their
radio to a public address system
which enables them to hear all calls
from the dispatcher.
After making an emergency run ,
they call the station and are switched
onto a dictating machine to record a
report of their run. This is then
typed by a clerk typist and placed in
a file.
Conception of th e Unit
We conceived the idea for a public
safety unit after the drowning of two
youths in a creek which flows th ro ugh
Abilene's city limits. We were the
first called to the scene of this tragic
occurrence, but when the drownings
were established, the fire department
with their boats and rescue equipment had to be called because we did
not have the necessary training or
prope r eq ui pment to retrieve the
victims.
A short time a fter this, on a dark
rainy night, an a utomobile crashed
into a utility pole causing a high voltage line to come p recariously close to
the vehicle. There was some diffi culty getting the occupa nts of the car
to remain in the car until the utility
co mpany co uld be summoned to remove the live wire. The many spectators who were attracted to this incident were in jeopardy of coming in

contact with the high voltage wire
which hung close to the gro und .
Some of these individuals stooped t o
go under this wire before ou r officers
at the scene could move them back
to a safe distance.
After this tragic incident and near
catastrophic occurrence, we began to
plan and resea rch for a police unit
which wo uld be trained to cope with
all types of emergency and rescue
work.
After discussing our ideas abo ut the
safe ty unit, we assigned senior staff
officer Capt. L. A. Martin to head the
planning a nd research.
We contacted the director of civil
defense and obtained hi s opinion as
to what type of emergency gear
would be needed to eq uip the unit.
Next, we called the fi re chi ef for con sultation and considered his recommendations. Then we invited the
local chapter of the Ameri can Red
Cross to assist in the train ing of each
officer assigned to the safety unit in
advanced first aid co urses.
We contacted the local medical
society, and they agreed to appoint a
committee to serve in an advisory
July 1967
capacity as well as. to assist m the
training of the officer s.
After months of a rdent research ,
the plans were fin ally fo rmulated and
presented to the city governmen t.
They were hesistant at fi rst to approve
such a project mainl y beca use of the
expense of such a unit. However,
when they were presented all the fac ts
of the value of its services, they gave
us the authority to proceed wi th our
plans.
After m uch consideration , we chose
a fo ur -doo r stati on wagon as the
vehicle for th is unit. I ts equipment
included spotlights, large revolving
red lights, a nd an electronic siren
and public address system to iden tify
it as an emergency vehicle.
Selection and Training of
P e rsonnel
The men operating and maintaining the public safe ty cruiser are all
vo lunteers carefull y screened on the
basis of their experience, aptitu de,
a nd mental and ph ysical abilities. A
committee comp osed of train ing office rs fr om both the fi re and police
departments, plus the city's personnel
director and assistant city manager,
screens the volunteers before they receive joint approval by the chiefs ·of
both departments.
The fire department conducted the
initial training of the pu'blic safety
officers over a 3-week period. This
training covered such basic firefi ghting techniques and subj ects as: small
structure fires, ladder and aerial
work, elements and causes of fires
the duties of fire hosemen, fire re:
sponse and attack, rescue and carries,
safety techniques, the use of a gas
mask, ventilation of a fire, and fire
hazards. Experienced fire department training officers personally conducted or supervised these training
sessions and exercises.
The second phase of training included a 1-week session in high-risk
rescue work at Texas A. & M.
College. Thi s second step included
" hotwire" handling and first aid
through the advanced level, along
with instructions in the use of such
life-saving appa ratuses as resuscitators, oxygen equipment, cutting
torches, etc. Additional trainin g included defen sive d riving, scuba di ving, explosives handling, and radiological monito ring.
The Taylor-Jones Count y Medical
Society fu rn ished the physicians who
trained our officers in such techniq ues
as how t o deliver a baby during
emergency conditions and other
emergency aid that could be rende red
at the accide nt scene. Thi s extensive emergency tra ining, plus the past
experience and training that normally
is retained by vetera n poli ce officers,
full y prepared our p ublic safety offi cers to cope with any emergency that
might arise.

We have received numerous similar

from citizens.
Public acceptance of the safety
cruiser grew until it was necessary for
us to add a second unit in July of
1965. Even physicians now tell their
heart patients and others who may
need emergency aid to call the safety
cruiser prior to calling them.
Not only do our public safety officers feel a keen sense of pride in being
able to serve humanity in this capacity, but the citizens of Abilene are very
proud of our cruiser and the men who
operate it. We feel that it has done
more for the benefit of public relations
than any other thing that the department has ever undertaken.
One of the big selling points that
we used in getting our cruiser approved was, " If one life is saved, it
will he well worth all the expense."
Well, the public safety cruiser has
more than proved its worth. This is
attested to by many local physicians,
families who have been assisted, and
three Red Cross Life Saving Awards
earned by the men who operate Abilene's public safety cruiser.
AMERICAN POLICEMAN

Washington area. These identifications supported prior investigation
by FBI Agents who had developed the
man as a suspect. He was arrested
and charged with bank robbery.
The value of a strategically placed
camera and resulting publicity of suspects ia illustrated by another incident
in which a subject was caught on
camera in the act of committing a
bank robbery.
In this incident a youth entered the
National Savings & Trust Co. in the
District of Columbia on January 4-,
1967, at which time he took an
estimated $6,000.
The picture taken by a hidden camera during the robbery showed a man
wearing glasses, with his hand partially covering a pistol, at a teller's
window.
The suspect in the photograph released to newspapers by the FBI was
recognized by a local police officer.
He notified police investigators who
arrested the youth .

fled. Total amount of mone y taken
was $1,659.
The bank is equipped with a co ncealed camera whi ch runs continu ously during bankin g hours a nd takes

film in th e camera was processed by
the FBI. Three frames contained
photogra p hs of the per so ns in volved

good clear picture of the fa ce of one
of the ro bber s. He was wearing a
special police offi cer 's uniform, including a b adge a nd cap.
Th e ph otograph and p ertinent information co ncerning the robber y

In one instance, a camera had been
installed only the day before the robbery, when shortl y before noon a
masked bandit, accompanied by a
teenage female, entered a banking institution in Cleveland , Ohio. Brandishing a small h and weapon, the
masked man warned bank employees
that this wa.;; a stickup and to stand

of a teller's window, he waited while
his accomplice calml y proceeded to

One of the b ank tellers had observed

which also set a hidden movie camera
into motion.

Still prints of the film taken during
the robbery were distributed to police
officers, FBI Agents, surrounding police dep·a rtments, and to newspapers.
The film was rushed to TV stations
and given nationwide coverage.
The youthful b ank robber turned
himself in to police the foll owing day.
He told police he h ad gone to Indiana
by bu:, after the robbery, but when
he realized the robbery film was being
shown on TV, he had decided to return to Cleveland and surrender.
"Where can you go when you're on
TV all the time !" was the remark he
made to detectives and FBI Agents.
The girl was arrested the following day when her whereabouts was
made known to police by an anonymous telephone call.
The man was sentenced to a term of
10 to 25 years in the State penitentiary. The girl was. placed on probation fo r 2 years.
Joe Meador, caught by a hidden camera , wa s convicted on charges of robbing a bank of more
than $30,000.
Ne rv ous Robbe r
Another bank robber, an 18-yearold youth, robbed the Citizens &
Southern Emory Bank, Decatur, Ga.
Holding a sawed-off shotgun, he
herded 18 persons into the open space
of the bank lobby, then ordered the
tellers to put the money in a green
paper bag he was carrying. , He
showed extreme nervo usness and at
one time was heard to remark, " I
swear to God, I'm scared to death ."
He obtained $19,475 and escaped in
a stolen car.
The bank manager in an office ad joining the lobby, seeing this acti on,
set off the silent bank ala rm which also
activated the bank's two hidden
cameras.
Ten clear photographs of the robber were taken during the course of
the robbery. These were released to

pl ayed thro ughout the Nation.
The robber was identified as Stephen P atrick Wilkie by a tenant of a
home where the robber had been livin g
for several months; but he, in the
meantime, was traveling all over the
co untr y living a life of luxur y on th e
money he had stolen. When a phone
call to his hometown revealed that he
was wa nted by the FBI fo r b ank ro bber y, he surrendered to Specia l Agents
in San Francisco. He was sentenced
to 10 yea rs fr1 the custody of the
Attorney General.
In another ro bbery two bro th ers
armed with h andguns entered an
Indiana bank and forced the manager
to fi ll a cloth bag with money fro m the
vault and the tellers' cashboxes.
After obtaining $30,845, one of the
brothers r ipped two sequence cameras
from the wall of the bank and took
them along when they fled from the
scene. Apparently they had no objections to being photographed during the robbery, but they made sure
the film co uld not be developed after
they left.
During the ensuing investigation,
one of the bank tellers told FBI
FBI Law EnforcelT! ent Bull etin
�Agents that she recognized one of the
robbers as having b een in the bank
some 6 weeks previously to cash a
check.
With the cooperation of the bank
officials, FBI Agents assisted the teller
in the task that lay before her in effecting an identification. Sequence
camera films for the preceding 6
weeks were developed and shown to
the teller. F or several h ours each
day fo r 11 days, she sat with FBI
Agents reviewing the frames, until
one day, after having viewed some
20,000 frames, she picked up the
frame identifying the robber- the
man who h ad entered the bank almost
6 weeks before the robbery.
N umerous prints of this photograph were made and circulated iby
the FBI to various sources. T hree
days after the photograph was first
obtained, a trusty of a local county
jail identified the bank robber as Joe
Wayne Meador. With h is identification, the brother , Ratline Meador, was
fo und to answer the description of the
other robber.
Green Thuml1
Both men denied guilt of the rob bery, stating they had been planting
tobacco on the far m of a relative at
the time. T his in fo rmation was
checked out, but apparently tobacco
was not the only thing they had
planted. After many hours of backbreaking digging, FBI Agents unearthed a 25-pound la rd can which
had been b uried some 15 inches under
a stable. Inside the lard can was a
plastic container ; inside the plastic
container was a styr ofoa m ice bucket ;
and inside the bucket was $ 11,000
completely saturated with talcum
powder.
Confronted with the buried treasure, the brothers accompanied FBI
Agents to another location where a
simi lar lard can was buried containing a nother bucket a nd $11,487 comJuly 1967
pletely saturated with talcum powder.
The brothers explained that the talcum powder served as a dehydrating
agent for the preservation of the
buried money.
FBI Agents and SCUBA divers located the cameras in a deep creek
running through a heavily wooded
area in the geileral vicinity of the
bank. Although t he cameras had
been completely submerged for almost a month, it was possible t o develop 1½ frames on the exp osed film

which requires pictures of good quality if results are to be achieved from
such investigative procedures.
Experience in the FBI with pictures
provided by numerous bank camera
installations have led to the following
conclusions with respect to these
installations:
1. Cameras of 35 mm. or larger negative
size will produce better results than
cameras of smaller negative size.
2. A sequence camera is preferable to · a
movie camera. This kind of camera
will produce a series of still photographs tha t will ordinarily be of higher
quality for identification purposes and
will also record the action.

Another y<mth , Albert Earl Ehrenberg, recognized from a photograph
taken at the time of the holdup and
publicize2d in a widely read daily
newspaper, was convicted for the robbery of the Colonial National Bank of
Alexandria, Va., fo r which he received
a sentence of 15 years' imprisonment.
He was also charged with the robberies of banks in Maryland and the
District of Columbia, bul in view of
the substa ntial sent_e nce given him for
the Alexandria robber y, these other

More a nd more banks are installing
cameras as a means to reduce their
vulnerability to marauding bank robbers. Certainly, the results achieved
in many cases in which robbers have
been ca ught on film while committing
the crime are encouraging and indi ca te the value of this technique.
If, however, a camera installation
in a bank is to be of maximum usefu Iness, certain technical factors
should be considered. The photographs produced by a concealed

SEARCH OF VEHICLES
· (Continu ed from page 8)
the arrest and he answered that the
vehicle was his. Weed surrendered the
keys to the car after being told by the
officers that they could get a search
warrant if necessary. The latter circum stance, coupled with the fact that
the defendant relinquished the keys
while in custody and " during a period
of dramatic excitement of drawn
guns," led the court to conclude that
the alleged consent was not " freely
and intelligently given." Compare,
U.S. v. Kuntz, - F. Supp. - (Northern Di strict of New York, March 17,
1967 ) ( uph olding co nsent search at
a roadblock manned by an offi cer
armed with a shotgun ) .
As a general rule, the courts tend to
question the competence and voluntariness of consent given b y a subj ect
who denies guilt, particularly where
it is apparent that incriminating evidence will be discovered. One appellate court rejected a waiver in this
situation, stating that " no sane man
who denies his guilt would actually
be willing th at a poli ceman search his
-roo m for contraband which i~ certain
to be discovered. " Higgins v. U.S.,
209 F. 2d 819 (1954) . See also, U.S .
v. Gregory, 204 F. Supp . 884, aff'd
309 F. 2d 536 (1 962) , holding th at
consent given under these circumstances is simply " not in accord with
human experience." On the other
hand, a confession of guilt which precedes a search tends to sup port the
a uthentici ty of the consent. U.S . v.
M itch ell, 322 U. S . 6
i 1944) ; U. S . v.
S mith, 308 F. 2d 657, 663-64 ( 1964 ) ;
U. S. v. Wa llace (d ictum ), siipra. See
also, Stale v. Bindhamm er, 209 A. 2d
124 (N.J. 1965 ) .
Also, where it appears t hat the person in custody consented prim arily in
an effort " to shift culpability" to
another, U.S. v. DeVivo, 190 F. Supp.
4,83 (1961 ), or to bluff his way
th ro ugh a search on the mistaken be20
lief that the incriminating articles are
too well concealed to be discovered,
the courts have generally allowed the
admission of such items into evidence.
Grice v. U.S. , 146 F. 2d 849 (1945 );
contra, Smith v. U.S. , supra. A similar result was reached recently in a
case where the subj ect delivered the
keys to his vehicle in an attempt to
" corrupt" a Federal agent into preventing the Government from obtaining pertinent evidence. In U.S. v.
Hilbrich, 232 F. Supp. 111 (1964),
aff'd, 34,1 F. 2d 555 (1965 ), the defendant was arrested by police officers
shortly after he had robbed a savings
and loan association. While being
interviewed by an agent with whom he
was acquainted, he gave his car keys
to the agent and asked him as a "favor" to go to the automobile, which
was parked a short distance from the
scepe of the r obber y, and to " get rid
of" two boxes of ammunition located
in the trunk. A second agent used the
keys and seized the ammunition . The
defendant later advanced the rather
novel argument that he had not in fact
consented to the search since his only
reason in surrendering the keys was
to prevent the Government from getting the evidence. The appellate court,
however, rejected this contention,
stating that in the absence of an y
showing of coercion, the motion to
suppress the evidence was properl y
denied.
The defendant's argument here was
not without merit, i.e. , that permission to enter the vehicle was extended
for the sole and limited purpose of
di po in g of the evidence and t hat,
once this auth ority was exceeded, the
consent, which has sometimes been
viewed as an agency relationship, was
terminated. But since it is also clea r
that Hi lbri ch made no effort to with draw his co nsent even after the agent
unequivocall y info r med him that he
could not comply with the request, the
result in this case seems a proper one.
It is worth repeating at this point,
-
--~
-
however, that whenever the conditions
permit, as would appear to have been
the case here, an officer should endeavor to obtain a warrant. Although
the practicability of doing so does not
have a bearing on the legality of the
consent search, evidence which has
been obtained in the execution of a
proper search warrant is always received more favorably by the courts
than that which has b een secured
through a claimed waiver of rights.
B. Clear Expression of Consen t
Aside from consideration of duress
or coercion, consent cannot validly be
obtained unless it is expressed in a n
explicit and unequivocal manner b y
the person whose property is to be
searched. _U.S. v. Fowler, 17 F.R.D.
499 ( 1955 ) ; Karwicki v. U.S., 55 F.
2d 225 (1932 ) . Where the consenting
words are such that they do not show
a clear and unmistakable intent to
waive one's constitutional right to refuse a warrantless search, the evidence
so obtained will be inadmissible. R ay
v. U.S ., 84, F . 2d 654 (1936).
But as a general r ule, the express
language used by a susp ect is merely
a factor to be considered , among
others, in determining the voluntariness of t he consent. As one appellate
court stated: " .. . a waiver cannot
be conclusively presumed from verbal
expression of assent. The court must
determine from all the circumstances
whether the verbal assent reflected an
understanding, uncoerced, and unequ ivocal election to gr ant t he offi ers
a license which the person knows may
be freely and effectively withheld,"
Cipres v. U.S ., 343 F . 2d 95, 97
( 1965). Thus, while t he party may resp ond with words indicating consent,
they do not constitute a valid waiver
when the surro unding circumstances
fail to support the voluntar y use of
such words. Accordingl y, consent
searches have been invalidated in
FBI Law Enforc eme nt Bull etin
�'-
some cases notwithstanding such remarks as, " I have no stuff in my apartment and you are welcome to go
search the whole place," Channel v.
U.S., 285 F. 2d 217 ( 1960), or, " I
have nothing to hide, you can go there
and see for yourself." Judd v. U.S. ,
190 F. 2d 649 (1951 ) . See, 79 C.J.S.,
Searches and Seizures, n. 89, sec. 62,
for further examples.
In Application of Tomich, 221 F.
Supp. 500 (1963), aff'd 332 F. 2d 987
(1964), the defendant was arrested
for a traffic violation. When asked b y
the offi cers for permission to search
his car , Tomich replied that " he didn't
mind," ·b ut stated that he did not have
a key to unlock the trunk ; in fact, he
had the key hidden in his shoe.
Eventually, the police were able to
gain entrance into the trunk by having
a key made a t a local garage. Tool s
and a p air of shoes linkin g Tomich to
a burglary were found in t he trunk of
the vehicle and were later used in evidence against him. In a subsequent
habeas corpus proceeding, a Federal
district court rejected the Sta te's contention th at valid consent had been obtained, stating: "At all times when he
was allegedly consen ting to the search,
he had in his possession , hidden in his
shoe, the key to the trunk. If he trul y
consented to the search, he wo uld have
delivered up the ke y to the officers and
saved them all the troub le they went
to to get into the trunk of the car."
Id. at 503.
The difficulty with this reasoning
i that the officers in this case had no
way of knowing that the subject was
in possession of the key. Had his overt
conduct reasonably indicated that he
did n ot in fact wish to cooperate,
the police would not have been justi fi ed in relyin g on his expressed con sent. But to all outward appeara nces
the defendant in this case kn owingly
and voluntarily relinquished hi s right
to insist upon a warrant. It wo uld
seem that if the police are to kn ow
with an y ce rtainty when a proper

has been made, they should be permitted to rel y on the open and expressed conduct of the suspect, without regard for the possibility of
pretense. Carried to the extreme
Tomich could open the way fot ~
criminal suspect to insure the inadmissibility of ph ysical evidence, which
might otherwise be acquired by an
alternative method , by professing cooperation at the scene and later
refuting his alleged consent, pointing
out that he had in fact withheld the
keys to the vehicle or in some other
manner had not full y assisted the police. See e.g., Burge v. U.S., 332 F. 2d
171 ( 1964) , in which the defendant
apparently feigned consent as "a determined strategy" to a later claim
of ill egality on the part of the officers.
In some cases, permission to search
has been fo_und by the courts in the
absence of consenting words by the
suspect, where it appeared that the
party had indicated a willingness to
cooperate or had rendered some affirmati ve assistance to the officers.
Where the defendant readily tendered
th e keys to his vehicle upon request,
Robinson v. U.S., 325 F. 2d 880
( 1963), or, without obj ecti on, opened
the trunk a nd surrendered porn ograp hic ma teri als_to investigating offi cers, Burge v. U.S. , 332 F. 2d 171
( 1964) , such conduct has been viewed
as convincing evid ence of consent.
See also, Smith v. U.S., 308 F . 2d 657
(1962 I (dictum ) , cert. denied, 3 72
U.S. 906 (1963 1 (co nsent fo und
where t he defend ant, while under a rrest for possession of narco tics, led
officers to a nearby apar tment a nd
prod uced a suitcase con tainin g heroin) ; U.S. v. Macleod, 207 F. 2d
853 ( 1953) (dictum) ( following his
arrest, the defendant cut th e lock off
a chest conta inin g in crimina tin g evidence and , without suggestio n from
the agents, went into the bedroom and
carri ed out a hand printing press) .
C. Kn owing and Intelligent Waiver
of Rights
The courts have long required that
consent to search be a " deliberate relinquishment of a known right," U.S.
v. Alberti, 120 F. Supp. 478 (1959) ,
and that such consent be " intelligently" given. U.S. v. Smith, 308 F.
2d 657, cert. denied, 372 U.S. 906
( 1963 ) . As a general rule, however,
there need not be an affirmative showing that the consenting party was advised of his fourth amendment right
to prevent a search without a warrant.
Although a failure to warn has sometimes been persuasive on the issue of
coercion, that factor alone has not
been sufficient to invalidate the search.
U.S. V. Paradise, 253 F . 2d 319
(1958) . Rather, the practice has been
to establish whether, in view of the
circumstances as a whole, the waiver
of fourth amendment rights was voluntary and intelligent. Tatum v. U.S. ,
321 F. 2d 219 ( 1963 ) ; Channel v.
U.S. , 285 F. 2d 217 (1960) . In making thi s determinati on, the courts have
been influenced by the suspect's
" marked intelligence and mental alertness," U.S. v. Haa s, 106 F . Supp. 295
(1952) , or the fa ct that the consenting parties were "sophisticated businessmen of many years experience."
U.S. v. Martin, 176 F. Supp. 262
(1954); In re White, 98 F. Supp. 895
(1951) . A history of previous arrests
or " indicated kn owledge from previous search and seizure experience"
may also show that the party was
probably alert to his rights and to the
consequences of a waiver at the time
he allegedl y gave permission to
search. Burge v. U.S., 332 F. 2d 171
(1964 ). Thu s, while upholding a consent search, one Federal court declared: "The amo unt of intimidation
or fea r of the badge in a person with
little knowledge of police officers or of
legal proceedings would be much
more acute and motivating than that
of a man with 13 years of experience
21
�as an officer and investigator. It may
be reasonably assumed that he was
aware of all the consequences." Tatum
V. U.S. , 321 F. 2d 219, 220 (1963 ) .
By the same token, the government's
burden of proving an intelligent and
understanding waiver of rights is understandably difficult to sustain when
the consenting party is illiterate or
does not have a good understanding
of the English language. U.S. v. Wai
Lau, 211 F. Supp. 684 (1963) ; Kovach v. U.S. , 53 F. 2d 639 (1931 );
U.S. v. Ong Goon Sing, 149 F. Supp.
267 (1957).
In a noticeable departure from the
tra ditional approach, however, some
courts have interpreted the requirement of a knowledgeable waiver to
mean that, in the absence of other evidence that the suspect was aware of his
fourth amendment rights, a formal
warning by the police officer is a necessary prerequisite to consent. For example, in U.S. v. Blalock, 255 F. Supp.
268 (1966 ), the defendant was questioned in a motel roo m concerning his
possible implicati on in a recent bank
robber y. When asked whether he
would min d if the agents sea rched the
roo m, th e defendant replied that he
had no obj ection. The search disclosed
a q uantity of bait money taken during
the robber y. On a moti on to suppress
the evidence, the Federal district cour t
stressed the need for an " intelligent"
consent and restated the long-standing
rule that one cann ot be said to waive
a fun da mental right unless he knows
the right ex ists. P ointing out that the
"voluntariness" of the consent was not
-in issue, the cour t stated : " [T ] he
fourth amendment requires n o less
know in g a waiver than do th e fi ft h
and sixth. The req ui rement of knowledge in each serves th e same p urpose,
i.e. , to prevent the possibility th at the
· ignorant ma y surrend er their rights
more read il y than th e shrewd ." See
also U.S. v. Nikrasch, 367 F. 2d 740
(1966).
Blalock expresses the grow ing tend-
ency among the Federal courts to
avoid resolving each case on its own
set of facts where a waiver of constitutional rights is involved. By requiring an explicit warning of fourth
amendment rights for all suspects,
regardless of age, experience, or coercive influences, the court frees itself
from the burden of deciding whether
this particular defendant knew of his
rights in the matter. This trend away
from " particularism" in the law h as
been most evident in the fifth amendment area where, as indicated earlier,
the court previously weighed similar
factors in establishing the voluntariness of confessions. In Miranda v.
Arizona, however, the court rejected
this approach , requiring that all persons in custod y be warned of their
ri ght to remain silent prior to interrogation. Sin ce there are elements of
self-incrimination 1n illegal searches,
Boyd v. U.S ., 116 U.S. 616, 630
( 1886) , it has been speculated that
Miranda bears constituti onal implications for consent searches as well.
See, Note, "C onsent Searches : A Reap praisal After Miranda ·v . A rizona.,"
67 Colum. L. Rev. 130 ( 1967 ) .
Whether advice of fourth amendment
rights need be as comprehensive as
Miranda requires, or whether the
States would be bound by such a rule,
is largely a -matter of conj ectu re at
this point.
But even assuming th at Miranda
is relevant to fo urth amendment matter s, at best it would apply only where
the consenting party is " in custod y o r
oth er wise deprived of hi s freedom of
action in any significant ,vay."
Miranda v. A rizona, 384 U.S. 4,36,
444, (1966) . As noted earlier, however, it is in this type of situati on that
consent searches a re mo t di ffi cult to
sustain , the theory being t hat custod y
itself creates a coercive atmosphere
which makes it diffi cult for one to
exercise free choice. Th us, while a
technical reading of the law at this
point may not req uire a warning in
every instance, the better practice in
situations of restraint or intimidation
is to inform the consenting party that
he has the right to insist upon a warrant.
D. Consent by Third Parties
As a general rule, the constitutional
right to privacy is personal to the individual and cannot be waived by
third parties. Stoner v. California, 376
U.S. 483 ( 1964 ) . Consequently, in the
absence either of expressed or implied
authorization to consent or a joint occupancy or ownership of the property
to be searched, a valid waiver of
the privilege against unreasonable
searches and seizures can be given up
only by the person himself. This limitation holds true, moreover , regardless
of the personal or familial relationship which may exist between the consenting party a nd the person against
whom the evidence is t o be used.
The specific question of whether
the wife's consent can validate a
search against her husband rem ains
unsettled in both the State and Federal
law. See, Note, "The Effect of a Wife's
Consent to Search and Seizure of the
Husband's Property," 69 Dick. L. Rev.
69 (1964) . But judging from the existing law applicable to the search of
fi xed premises, one ordinarily can assume that a spouse can give consent
to the search of a motor vehicle which
is valid as against the other, where
they jointly own and utilize the a utomobile in q uestion. See, State v. Coolidge, 208 A. 2d 322 (N.H. 1965)
( wife's consent t o search famil y cars
parked in yard upheld ) . See also,
R oberts v. U.S ., 332 F. 2d 892 (1964),
cert. denied, 380 U.S. 980 ; Stein v.
U.S ., 166 F . 2d 851 (1948); U.S . v.
Heine, 149 F. 2d 485 (194'5), cert. denied, 325 U.S. 885. In this type of situation, the wife's autho rity to permit
a search comes from her right to joint
possession of t he property to be
searched an d not fr om the marital relati on per se. For example, in Dalton
FBI Law Enforcement Bull etin
�v. State, 105 N.E. 2d 509 (Ind. 1952),
officers investigating a hit-and-run
offense asked the wife for consent to
search the suspect automobile, which
was registered in h er name. The car,
however, was paid for by the husband,
who had sole control and possession of
it. The wife had never driven the car.
In view of her lack of possession, the •
court held that the wife could not consent to a search of the car which was
her husband's personal " effect," protected by the fourth amendment.
However, if a specific area of the vehicle or a container in the automobile,
such as luggage or a fo otlocker, is the
exclusive property of the defendant,
it is doubtful that a proper waiver can
be obtained from a consenting spouse.
See, e.g., State v. Evans, 372 P. 2d
365 (Hawaii 1962 ) (wife cannot consent to search of husband's cuff link
case in dresser dra wer ) .
The issue of interspousal consent
was p resent in a case which came befo re the Supreme Court r ecently, but
the Court disposed of the matter on
other grounds. In Henry v. Mississippi, 379 U.S. 44 3 (1965 ) , the petitioner was convicted of disturbing
the peace by making indecen t pro posals to and offensive contact with a
hitchhiker to whom he allegedly gave
a ride. The only evidence available
to corroborate the complainant's
charges was obtained by an allegedly
unlawful search of the vehicle. The
evidence tended to substantiate the
complainant's stor y by sho wing its
aocuracy in details which could only
have been seen by one inside the car.
Subsequent to the petitioner's arrest,
an officer went to his home and obtained permission fr om the petitioner's wife to search the vehicle without
a warrant. Despite the fact that under
Mississippi law a wife could not give
consent which waived the constitutio nal rights of her husband, the State
Supreme Court affirmed the conviction
on the ground that the petitioner's
co unsel had fa iled to make a timely
July 1967
obj ection to the introduction of the
illegal evidence. In vacating the judgment and remanding it for a rehearing on the question of whether the
noncomplianice with the procedural
rules constituted a waiver, the Supreme Court noted: "Thus, consistently with the policy of avoiding premature decision on the merits of constitutional questions, we intimate no
view whether the pertinent controlling
federal standard governing the legality of a search and seizure, see Ker v.
California, 374 U.S. 23, is the same
as the Mississippi standard applied
here, which holds that the wife's consent cann ot validate a search as
against her husband." Id. at 449,
fn. 6.
Where a gratuitous bailment of a
vehicle is concerned, one appellate
court has taken the view ·t hat delivery
of the a!}tomobile into the temporary
custody of another represents an affirmative relinquishment of one's
fourth amendment protection over
such property. In Eldridge v. U.S.,
302 F . 2d 4,63 ( 1962 ), the susp ect lent
his automobile to a friend , Nethercott,
who had requested permission to use
the car to visit his daughter . The keys
to the ignition and to the trunk were
given to him. Actin g on information
that there was a stolen rifle in the car,
a nd after obse.r ving a rifle on the b ack
seat, the p olice asked the friend for
permission to examine the automobile.
The trunk of the car was voluntarily
opened by the friend, disclosing two
stolen Govern men t radios which were
immediately seized and turned over
to Federal a uth orities. At his trial th e
defen dant contended unsuccessfull y
that the radios had been illegally
seized , claiming t hat the pro tections
of the fo urth amendment are personal
to him and cannot be waived for him
by the gratuitous ba ilee of the car .
On review of the conviction, the
Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled
that the articles seized from the a utomoL,ile were properly admitted in evi-
dence. The court reasoned that the
friend
" was clothed with rightful possession and
control and could do in respect to the automobile whatever was reasonable and not
inconsistent with its entrustment to him.
No restriction was imposed upon him except to return with the car by a certain
hour. Although the defendant knew of th e
presence of the stolen radios in the trunk,
he apparently did not think it worthwhile
to take the precaution of forbiddin g his
bailee to open the trunk or permit anyone to
look into it. He r eserved no exclusive right
of privacy in respect to the trunk when he
delivered the key. In respon'ding as he did
to the police, Nethercott did not exceed the
authority Eldridge had seemingly given him.
Using the key to open the trunk was not an
unwarranted exercise of dominion during
the period of his permissive possession and
use. Access to the trunk is a normal incident to the use of an automobile. And if,
when he voluntarily opened the trunk,
N ethercott did not exceed proper bounds
because he had to that ex tent at least concurrent ri ghts therein with Eldridge, was
the ensuin g search by the police unreasonable ? We think not." Id. at 466.
A similar result was reached in
Hamilton v. State of North Carolina,
260 F. Supp. 632 (1966 ), where a
Federal district court ruled that petitioner's codefendant, who was in
temporar y possession of the vehicle,
had the capacity to consent.
It has been argued in suppo rt of
Eldridge that one who has lent his
vehicle to another " seems affirmatively to be taking the risk that the
third part y will show his belongings
to others. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to conclude th at in these cases
the suspect has impliedl y given the
third pa rty a uth ority to waive his own
personal right to privacy." Note, "Effec tive Consent to Search and Seizure," 113 U. P a. L. Rev. 260, 263
(1964 ) . But not all decisions are in
agreement with thi s view, as evidenced
by the holding in State v. Bernius, 203
N.E. 2d 24-1 (N.J. 1964). There the
defenda nt lent his a utomo bile to a
friend who was later arrested on a traffi c violation . When she was unable to

FBI Law Enforc em ent Bull etin
�Tribute to Peace Officers
The following is a statem ent by FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
concerning Peace Officers Memorial Day and Police Week which
was addressed to t he 79th Session of the FBI National Academy
on May 15 , 1967.
GENTLEMEN :
This day has a special meaning for
all of us. Nearly 5 years ago, the
President of the United States signed
the public law which authorizes and
requests him to issue annual proclamations designating May 15th of
each year as P eace Officers Memorial
Day. The purpose of ceremonies and
activities prop osed for the occasion is
to honor those officers who have been
killed or disabled in line of duty. The
law also authorizes and requests a
presidential proclamation each year
designating the week in which May
15th occurs as P olice Week.
Now, when the rate of crime con -
tinues to ascend, our mutual friends
and colleagues on the firing line face
an increasingly danp;erous and aggressive army of criminals. Some
bear on their bodies everlasting reminders of the intense struggle in
which we are engaged- indeed, there
may be those a mong you who carry
such scars. Others, less fortu nate, are
tied to wheelchairs or bound in utter
helplessness to their hospital beds.
Still others- and some were known to
each of us- will never again awaken
to a spring m orning.
We pause today to honor those men
in la w enfo rcement whose commit-
SEARCH- OF V EHICLES
owner is, as against such owner, prounreasonable
hibited . . . as an
search." Id. at 243.
A somewhat different situation is
involved if the bailment is for hire
as, for example, where the defendant
places his automobile in the custody
of a parking lot attendant. In this case
it is do ubtful that the bailee can waive
the defendant's rights. But see, Casey
v. U.S., 191 F. 2d 1 (1951 ) (h olding
the defendant, who failed to cl aim
ownership or interest in articles seized
fr om vehicle, lost immunity from
search and seizure when he placed
garage in possession of his automobile). As a general rule, when con trol over the propert y is limited to
tempora ry custody for storage purposes with rights of access expressly
or impliedly denied, the co urts hold
that t he custodian lacks sufficient
capacity to consent. Co rngold v. U. S .,
367 F. 2d 1 ( 1966); Holzhey v. U.S .,
(Continued from page 23)
give a satisfactory account of her possession of the automobile, she was
taken into custody and the car was
removed to a local p olice lot. While
being detained at the station, the
friend gave the keys to the car to the
police who searched the trunk and
fo und incri min atin g evidence which
subsequentl y was used to convict the
defendant. In reversing the conviction, t he New Jersey State Supreme
Court refu sed to accept the implied
authorization theory which h ad infl uenced the holding in Eldridge. Instead, the court ruled tha t "where
the owner of an a utomobile entrusts
the possession and control thereof to
another, a search thereof with the
consent of the one so entrusted but
without a warrant and without the
express consent authorization of such
ment was complete and whose sacrifice was total.
What kind of monument can we
erect to keep alive the memory of
such men? What memorial can we
raise to their courage, their dedication, and their sacrifice?
I believe that if the men who have
given their lives to uphold the law
could speak, they would desire most
the type of testimonial which is to be
found in your presence here. With
every forward step we take in making
certain that our law enforcement representatives are better trained, better
equipped, and generally better prepared than their predecessors, we add
strength and dignity to the living memorial we are developing. The good
men whose lives have been sacrificed
on the evil altar of crime would find
in your determination, your effort,
and your dedication to the advancement of our profession the memorial
they would welcome above all others.
I thank you.
223 F. 2d 823 ( 1955 ) . The issue here
is analogous to that presented in Chapm an v. U.S ., 365 U.S . 610 (1961) ,
where the Supreme Court held that a
search by police officers of a house
occupied by a tenant violated the
tenant's constitutional right, even
though the search was made with the
authorization of the owner. There the
owner had not only apparent but
actual au thority to enter the home for
vari ous purposes, such as to "view
waste." Sin ce the purpose of the entr y
was not to view waste but to look fo r
evidence of a crime, the court held the
search unl awful. See Stoner v. California, 376 U.S. 483,489 (1964). On
this reasoning, it would seem that the
authority conveyed to the garage attendant would relate solely to the
pro per and safe storage of the vehicle,
and entry for any other reason would
be improper .

�Preface
Recent years h ave witnessed a m arked in crease in citizen awareness
of the crime problem . This gr owing interest-p articularly that
shown by persons who previously h ave t aken the p osit ion tha t crime
is solely the responsibility of the law enforcement profession- is most
encouraging. I t offers promise of m aterially aiding police efforts
in the con trol of crime.
Individuals and organizations r epresenting m any segments of our
society are displaying a keen in ter est in progr ams to assis t law
enforcement and, ul timately, to reduce the volume of crime. In m any
par ts of the country , studies h ave been instituted and plans developed
not only to achieve a better unders tanding of local crime conditions,
but also to find solu tions to the complex problems involved . Tbe
success of these programs depends lar gely upon th e availability of
factual and complete s tatis tical da ta-da t a which help individual
com muni ties to comprehend the n ature an d extent of crim e locally
and to formulate effective measures of pr even tion a nd control.
U nder the s tew ardsh ip of the FBI, the U niform Crime R ep or ting
Progr am h as, for m any years, been a primary som·ce of info rmation
on the nature, exten t, trend an d dis tribution of cr ime. R ecently,
there has been a sh arp increase in the u tiliza tion of these data and
other police statistics by the cour ts, legisla tors, p enal authorities and
others concerned with the administr ation of crimin al jus tice.
Crime statistics are a n essential tool of police m anagement.
Growin g r ecognition of this fact is r esul ting in an im proved collection
of information-and in a continuing determina tion by the F BI and
the indiYidual contribu tors to this voluntary n a tion al P rogr am th a t
the most relii1ble and m eaningful statistics possible be provided in
meeting the needs of the wide v ariety of users.
Advan ces in comp uter and related communications technology
now make it both practical and fe asible to obtain crim e tati tics
more rapidly and in greater detail t h an heretofore p ossible. In
cooperation with state and local p olice agencies, t he FBI is currently
developin g a Nation al Crime Informa tion Center-a computerized
law enforcement information network wh ich will begin opera tion
early next year.
At th e outset, emphasis will be placed on information regarding
wanted persons, stolen proper ty and other operational-type d a t a
which will assist the police officer on the s tree t . The inform ation
V
�processed thr ough the National Crime I nformation C enter w ill,
however , offer a rich potential for statistical d a ta concerning crimin als
and their crimes. T his potential will be fully explored an d exploit ed
as the compu terized network develops.
Ultimately, Uniform Crime Repor ts an d r el a ted records will be
proces ed directly into this n a tiom,ide network, from a centr alized
state source, making possible up-to-:~he-minu te kn owled ge concerning
many ar eas of the crime problem. T he availability of such timely,
in-dep th statistics will open a ne\\- p athway to b etter service and
understanding among those engaged in the enforcem en t of t h e l a·w
and the administration of justice.
The new computer system pr omises an expanded u se of statistic
concerning crime. Accomp anying this expan ded u age is a greater
responsibility-particularly for accuracy, r eliab ility and confor m i ty
with established standards.
T echnology h as given us the tools t o bet ter u tilize t h e information
we possess. W e must cultivate this ability to the fullest.

�Criine Factors
Unifo rm Crime Rep or ts give a n ation wide view of crime b ased on
police statistics m ade p ossible by the voluntary coop eration of local
law enforcement agen cies. Since the factors which cause crime ar e
many and vary from place to place, r eaders are cau tioned against
draTuing conclusions from direct comp arisons of crime figures between
individual communities withou t first considering the factors involved.
The national material summarized in this publication sh ould b e used,
ho,rnver, as a star ting p oin t to determine deviations of individual
cities from the national aver ages.
Crim e is a social problem and the concern of the en tire communi ty.
The la\\· enforcement effort is limited to factors within its con trol.
Some of the conditions which "ill aff ect the amoun t and type of cri me
that occm s from place to place ar e briefly ou tlined b elow:
D ensity and size of t he comm unity p opulation and the m etrop olit an area of which it is a p ar t.
Com p o ition of the population with referen ce par ticul arly to age,
sex and r ace.

More. than 2,780,000 serious crimes reported during 1965; a 6 percent
increase over 1964.
·
Fourteen victims of serious crimes per 1,000 inhabitants in 1965, an increase of 5 percent over 1964 and 35 percent over 1960.
More than 5,600 murders, 34, 700 aggravated assaults wi th a gun and over 68,400 armed robberies in 1965.
118,900 robberies, 1,173,000 burglaries, 2,500,000 larcenies, and 486,600 auto thefts r esulted m total property stolen in excess of $1 billion.
Arrests of persons under 18 for serious crimes increased 47 percent in 1965 over 1960 . Increase in young age group popula tion for same period was 17 percent.
In 1965, 53 police officers wer e murdered in the line of duty. Fiftytwo were killed by firearms. Since 1960, 96 percent of officer s murdered with the use of firnarms.
Over 30 percent of persons arrested in suburban areas were nonresidents of suburban community where crime committed.
Careers in Crime: Ini tial FBI study of offenders disclosed over 48 percent repeated within two years after being released to the street following a prior char ge. 1 �Crime Index Tot als In the Uniform Crime R epor ting Program the n umber of crimes in seven offense categories is tabulated on th e b asis of counts m ade by law enforcemen t agencies as crimes of these types b ecom e known t o them. · These crime categories-murder and nonnegligent man slaugh ter, forcible rape, robbery, aggrava t ed assault , b m '.glary, larceny $50 and over, and au to th eft-are used to provide an in dex of the trend of crime in the United 5'tates. As a group, these offenses r epresent the most common local crin1e problem . Each cr ime cla ssification is serious, either by virtu e of the n ature of the criminal act itself, such as m urder, forcible r ape, rob bery an d aggr avated a ~saul t, or because of the volume of criminal inciden t s which requ ire a n inordinate amount of police investigat ive effor t and t ime, such as bmglary, larceny and auto th eft. During calendar y ear 1965 m ore th an two and t hree-quart er m illion serious crimes came to police atten tion , a 6 p er cent increa se in t h e Crime Index in 1965 over 1964 . E ach of the ind ividual crime categories con tributed to the overall incr ease. When considered as a gr ou p the crimes of \Tiolence, which comprise 13 p er cent of the C rime Index total, registered a 6 percen t incr ease. Murder rose 6 percent, for cible rape 9, robbery 6, and aggravated assaul t 6 p ercen t . The p roperty crimes, which m ak e up 87 p ercen t of the Crime I n dex, r ose 6 p erce~t as a group with burglar y up 6 percent, larceny $50 and over 8 percent and auto theft 5 percent . Since 1960 the v olume of crime h as in~ creased 46 percent . During this six-year peri od the property cr im e s r ose 47 per cen t and the violen t crimes 35 per cent. All city popula tion ~~oups h ~d increases in 1965, led b y a 7 percent rise in th e group of cities h avrng less th an 50,000 inhabitants. The group wit!1 500,000 ?r m01:e popula_tion showed a 4 p ercent upward trend. City groups m the mte1m echa te p opulation r ange from 50,000 to 500,000 h a_d incr~ases from 4 to 6 p er cen t .

According to figures released by the Unit ed St ates B ureau of the Census, total United S t at es population increased 1.3 percent in 1965. In that year t h e n ational Crim e Index rate was 1,434 offense per 100,000 population, r epresenting a 5 percent increase over 1964. Many factor s influen ce the nature and extent of crime in a particular community. A number of t hese factors are set forth on p age vii of this publication . A crime rate is lim ited to a con sideration of the numerical factor of popul ation and does not incorporate any of the other elements which contribute to t he amount of crim e in an area. The tatistical tables in t his publication disclose that the varying crime experiences, especially among l arge cities and suburban communities, are affected by a complex set of in vol ved factors and are not solely limited to numerical pop ul ation differ ences. The overall crime rate increase was largely influenced by the continuing upsurge in t he property crimes. However , crime r ates rose in each of the violent cr ime cat egorie. with the rnmder rate up 6 percent, for cible rape 8 per cent, aggravated assaul t 5 percent and robbery 5 percent over 1964. The num ber of crimes per unit of population is highest in the large pop ul ation center s and those areas recording th e fastest growing p opulations. The accomp anying ch-arts illustr ate the trend in serious crime from 1960 through 1965. They reveal the percentage increase in the volume of crime, the t rend in t he crime rate and pop ulation growth .

In the last five years 58 police officers have lost their lives responding to calls for assis tance involv ing "clistw·b ances" or "family disputes." Police n ationally solved 73 percent of these crimes which came to their attention in 1965. Police activity, as measur ed by arrests for this offense, increased 5 percent during the p ast year. Arres ts of adul ts rose 5 percent, while arrests for persons under 18 were up 7 percent. In reviewing arrests for this offense by se:;'{, m ·ales outnumbered females by more than 6 t9 1. The 20-24 year olds led the arrest rate age group. This is prim arily an adul t crime but person s under 18 were represented in 15 percent of the arres ts. By ar 13 as, the distribution of arrests by age gr oup was fairly consis tent; however, in thermal areas the involvement of persons under 18 was significantly lower, n amely, 7 percent. The seasonal variation for aggravated assault r emained consis t ent with the experience of the past several years; namely, a high number of off enses in the summer months tapering off to t he l ows in the colder months of the year . Similar to the 1964 experience, ao·oTavated bb . assault reached its p eak in August, 1965, " ·hile J anuary appeared l ow . Because of the frequent close relationship between victim and offender, this offense is also a prosecutive problem. In 1965, 41 percent of the adults charged were found guilty of aggravated assault, 18 percent were found guilty of some lesser charge, and 41 p ercent were dismissed or defend ants acquitted. P ersons under 18 were ch aro·ed in 0 15 percent of the incidents. Approximately 17 percent of all aggravated assaults were committed with a firearm in 1965 , 36. p er~ent by knife or other cutting instrument, 22 percent with a blunt obJect or other d angerous weapon, and 2 5 percent with personal weapons, such as h ands, fists, and feet . Firearms wer e used in 17 p~rcent of the attacks in cities over 250 ,000, 20 p ercent _of the assaults m rural areas and 1_6 percent in t h e suburbs .

�Th e low conviction p ercentage on the origin al charge is d ue primarily
t o the close rel ationship between the assailant and victim and the

Forcible Rape
T here were 22 ,4 70 forcible r ap es or assaults to commit this offense
in the Uni ted States durin g 1965. .lVIany offen ses of th is type are
not rep or ted to a law enforcement agency primarily due to fear and/or
embarrassm en t on the p art of t he victim. Volumewise, these offenses
ha,e been steadily rising for several years and were up 9 percent ov er
1964. Of t he seven Crime Index offen ses, forcible r ape showed the
highest percen tage in crease during 1965. N ation ally, the forcible r ape
rate ,rns 23 offenses p er 100,000 fem ale p opulation. F or the period
1960- 1965, the tr end of this crime against the person h as increased
36 percent.
F orcible r ap e follows a similar season al p attern from y ear to year
in that the wairm or summer months, J une through September
generally ar e high. In 1965, th e m onth of Jmrn was the high point in
cities, while July was th e high m onth in the submb an and rural areas.
The chart \Yhich follo,rn d em on str ates the m on thly variations in 1965,
as ,rnll as the five-year average seasonal variation s for this offen se.
Nearly two-thirds of th ese crim es were actu al rapes by force, while the
remainder were attemp ts to commit r ape.
These offenses occur in all areas, but they are primarily big city
crimes. The overall forcible r ap e r ate in creased 8 percent in 1965,
with cities in excess of 250,000 r ecordin g a ra te of 21 per 100,000
population.
Geogr aphically , all regions r ep orted increases in the volum e of
these offenses with the Nor th Central States recording the sharp es t
upward trend of 14 p ercent. The W estern States repor ted the highes t
forcible rape r ate. Approximately 1 of every 5 forcible rap es occurred
in cities in excess of 1 m illion, which r ecord ed an in cr ease of 12 percent. The volume \\·as up 14 p ercent in th e suburbs, 11 percen t in
large cities as a gr oup, and in the rural ar eas there was little ch ange.
Similar to t he other crim es agains t t he p erson , p olice efforts are
limi ted in preventing the occurre nce of forcible r ~p e offenses sin ce
they generally occur beyond r each of p atr ols. P olice clear ed up by
the arrest of the offender 64 of every 100 cases. F or all offen ses

�for this offense. Since 1960 , forcibl e rape arrests for persons under
18 have incr eased 35 percent.
Not all p ersons arrested are bound · over for prosecutive action .
Many reasons exist, such as the victim refuses to prosecute, etc.,
which may preclude cour t action. In 1965, 72 p ercent of the p ersons
arrested for forcible rape \\" ere tried in comt. Of all persons charged
with forcible rape 24 percent wer e referred to juvenile court jmisdiction. Of t he adults charged with this offense 40 percent were found
guilty of for cible r ape, 17 p er cen t of some lesser offense and 43 percent
were acqui tted or h ad their case other\\·ise dismissed.
D ata concerning statutory rape where no force is used and other
sex offenses ar e collected on the basis of persons arrested. Arrests
for these offenses d ecreased 8 p er cent in 1965 and accounted for about
1 p ercent of all p olice arrests. Adult arrests d eclined 7 percent and
arrests for p ersons under 18 were down 11 percent in the cit ies, 3
percent in the subtfrbs and up 13 p er cent in t h e rural areas. Of the
total persons charged for these crimes, 55 percent were found guilty as
ch arged, 7 p ercent were found guilty of a lesser charge, 17 percent
were acquitted or dismissed at som e prosecutive level and 21 p er cent
of t he p ersons ch arged were referred to juvenile cotfft.

When consider ed by type, all r obbery categories had increases. In
1965, street r obberies, which comprised over one-half t he offenses
committed in this category, rose 3 percent. R obberies of gas or
ser vice stations h ad a substantial increase of 8 percent, and chain
store robberies r ose 7 p ercent . B ank r obberies, alt hough m aking up
less t han 1 p er cent of all robbery crimes, jumped 19 percent. T he
average value of loot obtained by b ank robbers in each attack rose
from $3,309 in 1964 to $3,789 in 1965. T he average loss in each
robbery was $254 which amounted to a total dollar loss of m or e than
$30 million.
The 1965 ra te was 5 p ercent higher than in 1964 with 61 victims p er
100,000 population . The gr oup of cities with p opulation s of mor e
than 250,000 had a 1965 r ate of 179 offenses p er 100,000 inhabit an ts.
This was about 6 times greater t h an the suburb an area rate and 18
times higher than t he r ural rate. G eographically, t he robber y rate
was highest in t h e W estern St ates.
ationally in 1965, p olice cleared 38 p ercent of t he robbery offenses
through the arrest of the offenders. Slightly m ore than 1 of 5 of these '
crimes involved p ersons under 18 years of age as offenders. These
young p ersons were responsible for 32 p er cent of the strong-arm
robberies and 12 p ercent of t he robberies where a weapon was used .
R obbery arrests for 1965 h ad t h e great est p ercen tage incr ease
among the young age group under 15. There was a 9 p ercent rise in
arrests of these young p ersons , whereas arrests of p erson s under 18
rose 6 p ercent and adults less t h an 1 p ercent. P ersons under 25
accounted for 69 p ercent of all arrests for robbery nation ally an d
those under 18 for 30 per cent. From 1960 to 1965 t he arrests of
persons under 18 for robbery rose 40 percent.
Of those ch arged with robbery, 34 p ercen t wer e r eferred to juvenile
court. Of t h e adults charged 52 p er cent were found guilty as ch arged,
19 percent guilty of a lesser offen se and 29 percen t of the cases were
dismissed or the defendan ts were acquitted.

an d was Secon d only to burn:l
~ ary in volume with 762,400 offen ses
r eported . Since 1960, there has b een an incr ease in l arceny $50
and over of 57 p er cent.
The upward trend of l arceny in 1965 was mo~t pronoun_c ~d in the
s uburb an areas which sh owed an 11 p er cent rise. All cities when
gro uped were up 6 percent and the rur~l areas recorded a n 8 p erc~nt
upswing. Cities over 250 ,000 ? opulation report~d a n ·average m cr ea e of 3 percent. Geo gr aphically, the trend m thefts over $50
ranged from a rise of 11 p ercent iri th~ W estern States, and 10 percent
in the Southern States to 8 percent m the Northeastern States and
3 p ercent in the North Central States.
Seasonally, these crimes conform to a gen er al p attern which is
r ela tively stable thro ugh ou t t he year but h as a tendency to p eak
in August. In l 965 there wa an unusu ally sharp upswing in D ecem b er when comp ared to prior years .
The l arceny or victim r ate, which is the number of thefts per
100,000 population, was 393 in 1965 . This was an increase of 7 percent abo ve t he rate in 1964. As in the past, the rural r ate was l owest
at 176 , the suburban area r ate was 359, and the ci t ies over 250,000
popula tion had a rate of 633.
In 1965 the a:er age value of prop erty stol en in each l arcenytheft was $84 which made the total l oss from these crim es in excess
of $211 million. This includes the numerous t h efts under $50 in
value which total ed 1,752,600 in 1965 . The average dollar loss for
larceny in 1960 was $74. It is a recognized fact that many thefts

�area. City crime figures disclose that 44 percent of all larceny
clearances involved persons under 18 years of age. This is a slight
increase in the involvement of this young age group when compared
to 1964. In t he suburbs 46 percent of the larceny offenses were
cleared by the arrest of juveniles while the percentage in the rural
area was 30 p ercent.
Nationally, police m ade an average of 286 arrests for larceny for
every 100,000 p opulation in 1965. Total arrests for this crime wer e
down less than 1 percent with decreases recorded in the adult arrests
as weil as arrests of p ersons under 18. P ersons under 25 accounted
for 76 percent of all arrests for theft. P ersons under 21 were involved
in 67 p ercent, those under 18 in 55 p ercent. Since 1960 police arrests
of persons under 18 years of age for larceny have increased 60 percent.
Police charged 82 percent of the persons they arrested for larceny.
Of those charged, 45 percent were referred to juvenile court jurisdiction. Of the adults charged 70 percent were found guilty of
larceny, 6 percent guilty of som e lesser offense, and 24 percent were
acquitted or their cases were dismissed.
Auto Theft
In 1965 there were 486,600 auto thefts, a 5 percent increase over
1964. On the average, over 1,300 motor vehicles were stolen each
day during th e year. Since 1960, au to theft bas increased 51 percentmore than double the percen tage increase in automobile registrations.
Auto theft makes up 18 percent of the Crime Index offenses. The
value of th ese stolen motor vehicles exceeded one h alf billion dollars
in 1965. Although 88 p ercent of the stolen automobiles were recovered, the remaining 12 p ercent constituted a total dollar loss in
excess of $60 m illion.
Geographically, the Nor theas tern States recorded the highest
increase in volum e for auto theft, followed b y th e N ortb Central and
Western States. The South ern S tates r ecorded no change in th e
volume of car theft .
ationally , auto theft reached its peak durin g
the mon th of October, 1965 .
Abou t on e of every four auto t h efts was cleared by the arrest of the
offender. The burden placed on law enforcement in this important
category is readily recognizable by t he involvement of young persons
in the transpor tation-type thefts . Citizen alertness in keeping cars
locked and in n ot leaving k eys in igni tions or ignitions unlocked would
aid materially in r ed ucing th ese th efts since so many occur due to th e
acces ibility of th e vehicle and the easy opportunity presented for
theft .
Across the Nation, aITests for a uto th eft decr eased 3 percent.
Arrests of p ersons under 18 d ecreased 5 p ercent, while adult arrests
increased a slight 1 percent . Since 1960, howev er, arrests for auto
l7
�th ef t for p er son s under 18 y ear s of age incr eased 44 p er cent and
aidults 37 p ercent.
Offenders under t he age of 18 accou n ted for 6 2 p ercent of the
arrests while p ersons under 25 wer e respon sib le fo r 88 percen t of t h e
t otal ~rrests fo r auto t h eft. T h e 15-19 year ol d gro up r ecorded
t he highest arrest r ate for a u to t h eft . Males m a de up 96 percent of
t he arrests for t his offense.
Of all p erson s ch ar ged wit h a u to t h eft, 6 1 p er cent a r e referred to
juvenile com t. W it h r esp ect t o the a dul t_ offender s 54 p er cen t ~ ere

N early two-t hirds of a ll a u to thefts occur at n igh t a nd over on e-half
ar e from private residen ces, a p art ments or streets in residential areas .
While r ecoveries of stolen a u tomobiles run h igh, p olice a re not a ble i n

When only the serious crimes are used for trend purposes during
this six-year period, it is noted t hat arrests increased 33 percen t.
Arrests of the under 18 age gTOup for the same crimes rose 47 percen t.
Although adult arr ests were up sharply dlU'ing this period, the upward trend for the young age group was double that for adults.
The young age arrests for violent crimes were up 50 percent and for
the property crimes 4 7 percent.
Adul t arrests for the violent crimes for the same period were up 17
percent and for property crimes 25 percent. Arrests are first a
mea ure of police activity as it relates to crime. Arrests do, however ,
provide a useful index to measure involvement in criminal acts by
the age, sex and race of the perpetrators particularly for those crimes
which have a high solution rate. Procedures used in this Progi-am
require that an arrest be counted on each sep ar ate occasion when a
person is taken into custody, notified , or cited. Arrests do no t
measure the pecific number of individu als taken in to custody since
one person may be arrested several times during the year for the
same or different offenses . This h appens frequently for certain types
of offenses against public order such as drunken ness, vagrancy,
disorderly conduct and related violations.
In 1965, arrests for all crimin al acts, excluding traffic, in cr eased
less than 1 percent over 1964. Nationally, there were 37 arrests fo r
each 1,000 persons in the United States. The arrest rate for cities
as a group was 43 per 1,000 population, for suburb an areas 22, and
for the rmal areas 16. The total volume of city arrests in cr eased
almost 1 percent, suburban 5 percent, and rural 2 p ercent.
N ationn.lly, persons under 15 years of age made up 9 percent of the
total police arrests; under 18, 21 percent; and under 21, 32 percent.
In the suburban areas the involvement of the young age group i11
police arrests is considerably higher than the n ational figure with the
under 15 age group represented in 12 percent; under 18, 32 percent;
and under 21, 45 percen t . In the rural area the di ·tributions were
lower for the younger age gro up with the under 15 age group bein g
involved in 4 percent of the total police arrests ; under 18 in 19 percent ;
and those under 21 in 35 percent.
In revie\\"ing arrest .figures it is important to keep in mind that
police arrest practices and emphases vary " ·hi cb "·ill acco unt for som e
\·a,riation s in these statistics from year to year. It is noted that
arrests of perso11s under 18 rose 35 percent for prostitution an d com mercialized vice, and 38 percent for Narcotic Drug Law violations.
In fact, nationally, approximately 1 of every 4 individuals arre ted
for violations of the Narcotic Drug Laws was a person under 21 years
of age.
Arrests for Narcotic Drug Law violations were up 12 percen t
nationally. From 1960 to 1965 arrests for th is violation in creased 46

Persons Charged
In 1965 in the serious cr ime categories there was a significant 5
percent decrease f~·om 196~ in th e number of adul~s found guilty and n
- sharp 13 percen t mqrease m th e nu mber of acquittals and dismissals .
Each of these serious crimes contribu ted to the increase in the percentao-e of those acquitted or dismissed. Three out of every 10 murde1·
d: fendants were either acquitted or their cases were di :missed at some
prosecutive stage, about o~e-third ~f t~ose charged with for cible rape
were acquitted or had theu- ca e d1sm1ssed and over one-third of the
persons charged with ag_g ravated as~at~t won freed om through acquittal or dismissal. Acqmttals and d1sm1ssals r an h igh i n the N ar co ti c
Drug Law violations ':-hi~h wer e up from 36 percent in 1964 to ;38
percent in 1965 . A s1g~11fican~ fact emerges-since 1962 acq uittals

�persons without preferring a formal charge or referring them to juvenile
authorities. In this Program, all law enforcement agencies are urged
to obtain and report final dispositions in cases in vol ving persons they
arrest. Tables containing this data commence on p age 103. Included
in these tables are j11veniles (local age limit) who were arrested and
turned over to juvenile authori ties in connection with specific criminal
acts. In using these figures keep in mind that p olice methods of
handling juvenile offenders differ widely.
In 1965 in the serious or Index crime categories 8 out of every 10
per ons arrested were form ally charged by police. Of the adul ts who
were ch arged for these Index offenses, 58 p ercent were found guilty as
charged, 12 percent guilty of a lesser crime, and 30 percent were
acquitted or their cases were dismissed. The highest p ercen tage of
persons found guilty on the original charge was in the larceny category
where 70 percent of the defendants were convicted for larceny. This
was followed by 54 percent conviction on the origin al ch arge for auto
theft, 51 percent for r obbery and burglary, 48 percent for murder,
41 percent for aggravated assaul t and 40 percen t for forcible rape.
The offense showing the highest percen tage conviction on a lesser
charge was murder where one of every 5 defendants was convicted
on some charge other than criminal homicide . The offense which had
the highest p er centage of acqui ttals and dismissals was forcib le r ape
with 43 percent. Person s charged with larceny h ad their cases dismissed or were acquitted least often-24 p er cent of the time. In 45
percent of the cases where formal charges were preferred the offense
was referred to juvenile court jurisdiction . Juvenile referr als were
highest fo r auto theft with 61 p ercent. Youn g person s were referred
to juvenile co urt jurisdiction after being ch arged in 52 percent of the
burglary cases, 45 percent of the l arceny, 34 percent of the r obbery,
24 percent of the forcible rape, 15 p er cent of the aggravated ass au l t
and 7 percent of the criminal homicide.
When all crime categories are reviewed , i t is found co n victions on
original charges remained high in the offen ses against public order
and decency-driving while intoxicated, drunkenness, disorderly co nduct and vagrancy. Offenses of ar son and vand alism recorded th e
greatest percentage of juvenile referrals.
Mo bility o.f the Offender
As indicated in other pages of this publication, the mobility of t he
general population, and specifically the mobility of the criminal
offender, influences crime rates from jurisdiction to j misdictionstate, county and l ocal . This factor of mobility h as mul tiplied

(Octob er-November ) of 1964. Some high lights of th is s t u dy are set
24
�forth below. It is reasonable to assume that the experience of this
metropolitan area would be very similar to that in other large metropolitan population centers.
For all criminal acts, excluding traffic offenses, 15.3 percent of the
persons arrested in the entire Washington, D .C., metropoli tan area
were nonresidents of the place where arrested. When drunkenness
and disorderly conduct arrests were excluded, 17 .3 percent of the
offenders were nonresidents. For the crimes against the personmurder , forcible rape and aggravated assault- IO percent of the persons arrested were nonresident offenders. While 9 percent of the
robbery arres ts were of nonresiden ts, 19 percent of the persons arrested for burglary, larceny and auto theft as a group were nonresidents of the community where the crimes were committed .
These mobile off enders were primarily from some part of the metropolitan area (64 percent), although they traveled to another political
subdivision of the area to commit their criminal acts. Fomteen percent came from a state other than Maryland and Virginia and the
District of Columbia. Twenty-two percent were from Marylan d or
Virginia but resided beyond the suburban fringe.
The Maryland and Virginia suburbs of this metropolitan area experienced proportionately a greater degree of criminal mobili ty than
the large core city, Washington, D.C. In these suburbs 31 p-ercentof
all persons taken into custody were nonresidents of the community
where arrested. For the crimes against the person 16 percent of the
persons arrested were nonresidents. For the property crimes of
burglary, i·arceny and auto theft 39 percent were nonresident offenders.
In suburban robberies it was disclosed that over one-half were sol ved
by the arrests of offenders who were nonresidents of the community
where the crime occurred.
These mobile offenders by sex were 91 percent m ale and 9 percent
fem ale. The nonresident female offenders were arrested primarily on
charges of larceny, assault, drunkenness and disorderly conduct. A
percent distribution by age gro up and type of offense of these mobile
offenders for the entire metropoli tan Washington, D.C., area is set

�Victim
The increasing mobility of the general population, p articul arly
within a metropolitan area, also places greater demands on police
protection needs. Crime and police employee rates in this publication
are based on permanent or residen t population figures since transient
population counts are not ~vailable. However, the constant flow of
nonresident population within and through metrop olitan areas ,
particularly by means of the automobile, is a factor for consideration
in establishing police needs in each community.
.
This -survey in the W ashington, D.C. , metropolitan area revealed
that 21 percent of the victims were nonre idents of the community
in which the crime was committed. Specifically, in crimes again s t
the person 15 percen~ of the victims were nonresidents and 22 p er cent
of the robbery victims did not reside in the community where v ictim ized. W ith r espect to the crimes against property, particul arly
larceny and auto theft, 30 percent of the victims were nonresiden ts.
There were proporti~nately m~re nonresident victims of property
crimes in the large city, W as~mgto_n,. D .O ., than suburbia, 35 percent versus 20 percent.. 'l'rans1en t victrms of r obbery were also hio·her
in the large city, 22 percent, compar ed with 14 p ercent in t h e s ubl~·bs.
For the crimes against the person, nonresident v ictims were in the
same :proportion in both the large city and the submbs.

victims, alth ough in crimes against the person the percen tage of m ales
is only slightly more than · h alf. T he nonresiden t is victimized most
frequently by robbery or other forms of t heft .
The abo,7 e material was gathered on th e basis of police solu tions
of crime. I t is reasonable to assume th at a greater proportion of
unsolved crimes are committed by m obile offenders. This is p articularly true for the crimes against property. It is also the property
crimes which result in fewer clear an ces.
Although we have highligh ted here t he mobility of the offender
in the metrop olitan area, it is clear th at the v ast majority of offender s
an d victims of crime are of local concern. The need for pol{ce to
centralize criminal information is, therefore, apparent. This is
especially true in view of the r epeater and the extent . to which he
contributes to crime.
Careers in Cri m e
At the close of calendar year 1965 the criminal histories of 134,938
individual offenders h ad been en tered into a study of criminal careers
which was initiated by t he FBI in J anuary, 1963. This progr am and
t he publication of this material are made possible through the cooperative exchange of criminal fingerprint data among local, st ate and
Federal law enforcement agencies which submit criminal fingerprint
cards to the FBI's I dentification Division on persons whom they
arrest. There is a lack of uniformity in submissions made by all law
enfor cement agencies for all criminal charges but, gener ally, it is the
practice to submit a criminal fin ger print card on all serious crimes,
felonies, and certain misdemeanors. On the F ederal level almost all
arrested persons are fingerprinted_by the arresting F ederal agency,
United States Marshals and/or the Bureau of Pri ons.
Using this positive m eans of iden tification it is possible to obtain
the criminal history of an offender. T his history is limited, of course,
to the extent that the offender is detected, arrested, a fi ngerprint
card submitted at arrest and a disp osition is furnished for the arrest.
The fingerprint files of these known offenders are "fl.ashed" in the
FBI IdenLification Division thus providing a means of follow-up with
respect to their future criminal involvement. Additional informa tion
received on these persons is added to th e record which has b een
previously stored on magnetic tape. For the most part, th ese offenders
are persons who have been arrested on a Federal ch arge in 1963, 1964
or 1965, parolees, persons on probation, serious state violators arrested

is based on an analysis of the crim inal activity of offenders on whom
finger print cards wer e r eceiv ed from J anuar y 1, 1963, to December 3 1,
1965.

�This sample of almost 135,000 individual criminal records is primarily made up of Federal offenders in the sense that it was their
involvement with the Federal process which brought them into the
program. Keep in mind, however, that most of the Federal crimes
as defined by statute are also local in nature. These violators are
generally t he serious off enders and, therefore, likely repeaters since
it _is not police practice to submit fingerprint cards on minor or petty
crimes.
Profiles
Table B , Profile of Known Repeaters by Type of Crime, provides
pertinent information for comparative purposes. It suggests the
extent to which the repeater contributes to our crime ·counts year
in and year out. The group of offenders making up T able B are
repeaters ; that is, they have been arrested at least twice and were
selected by type of crime based on their last charge. The average
age of these offenders ranged from 27 years for the au to thief t o 45
years for the gambler . For the auto thief who repeated in that
offense, the average age at first arrest for auto theft was 23 and the
gambler 40 years of age. Again, the extreme ranges of average
age at first arrest for any offense were the gambler 31, and the auto
thief, r obber, and burglar 20 years of age. Since fingerprint cards are
not submitted with any degree of consistency on juvenile arrests, the
average age at first arrest is influenced upward.
Criminal careers of these offenders ranged from 13 yeal'S for the
gambler to 6 years for the more you thful auto thief and rapist. However , averages indicated th at the burglar, auto thief and robber had
the highest rate of repeating in the serious crime categories. More
than h alf of the crimes committed by these offenders were of the Crime
Index type; namely , murder, forcible rape, r obbery, aggravated assault,
burglary, larceny and auto theft.
Repeating in the same crime was highest for the nar cotic offender
53 per cen t, the burglar 48 percent, the gam bler 47 percent, and the
bogus check offender 40 percent. Thirty-six percent of the au to
thieves repeated in au to theft during t he course of their criminal
careers and 33 per cent of the robbers repeated in robbery. F or the
crimes against the person- murder, r ape and felonious assault- t he
rate of repeating in t he sam e crime is considerably lower than for t he
property offenses.
The frequency of leniency action in the form of probation, suspended
sentence or p arole ranged from 38 percen t for the murderers to 55
percent for the bmglars. Like the burglar , 54 percent of the bogus
check offenders also had leniency ; yet, both of t hese. criminal ty pes
have a high rate of repeating and, r epeating in the same offense. The

�auto thief, bogus check offender and the narcotic violator had the
highest proportion of leniency for specific charges.
The forger, the auto thief, the burglar and the robber recorded the
highest mobility with over 30 percent having been arrested in 3 or
m ore states during the course of their criminal careers.
Follow- up
The first results of follow-up since this program was initiated in
J anuary, 1963, are set forth in T able C below. The 6,907 offenders
in this tabulation represent crimin al offenders who were released to
the street between Janu ary and June, 1963. They were released
either by prob ation , suspended sentence, parole, fine or acquittal
and dismissal. By the posting of "flash" notices in the criminal
identification records of these offenders, arrests for new crimes were
added to each record when received through the submission of a
fingerprint card . The cutoff date on follow-up was June, 1965;
therefore, the experience reported below covers a two-year period.
Age was computed a t time of entry into the progr am in 1963. As a
group, 48 percent of these offenders were arrested for new crimes
within two years- namely between June, 1963, and June, 1965.

must not be interpreted as representing desirable or recom mended

Police Killed
The number of law enforcement officers murdered in the line of
duty in 1965 dropped slightly from 1964. T here were 53 police
victims in 1965 whereas there were 57 officers murdered in 1964.
With the addition of these 53 deaths the total number of police killings
increased to 278 for the six-year period 1960- 1965. In 1965 there
were 30 additional deaths of law enforcement officers as a r esult of
accidents in the line of duty, most of which were automobile or
motorcycle fatalities.
Effecting arrests and transporting prisoners continue to carry the
greatest risk for police as evidenced by the fact that 30 percent of the
278 men rnw-dered over the six-year period wer e engaged in h andling
these p olice fun ctions . In fact, 42 percent of the 53 police killed in
1965 wer e making arrests or were transp orting prisoners who h ad
been apprehended. A further analysis of the type of acti vity in which
the 278 officers were involved discloses 21 percent were answering
disturbance-t,ype calls, such as family quarrels, man with a g un, etc.,
while 20 percent were mmdered when they interrup ted a robbery in

In 1965 all b ut one of the 53 officers died from wounds inflicted by
firearms-32 were victims of handguns, 13 were killed by use of
shotguns and 7 by rifles. · Since 1960 firearms have been used in
96 percent of the murders of police officers in the line of du ty and of
those killed by firearms, 78 percent were m urdered with handguns.
Th e median period of police ser vice fo r officers slain since 1960 remain ed a t 6 years . Ten percent of the murdered officers had been
employed in law enforcement one year or less, 59 percent h ad 5 or
more years of police experience and almost one-third were veterans
of 10 years or more service.
Police officers on car p atrol contribu ted the h eaviest toll to those
murder ed in 1965 with a total of 37 deaths . This is typical of the
six-year period during which time 186 of the deceased officer were
assigned to car p a trols, 24 were on foot patrol, 48 were detectives or
were assigned du t ies of a specialized nature and 20 were technically
off duty. The la tter became involved in the incidents which resul ted
in their deaths by attempting to pre vent a crime occurring in their
presence.
During 1965, 27 of the officer s who died from criminal action were
being assisted at th e time of the incident by a fellow officer while 26
were alone . During the six years for which these fig ures have been
accumula ted 123 offi cers died while operating alone, whereas 155
were receiving assistance at the scene when they were killed.

Introduction
Background
The Uniform Crime R eporting Program is the outgrow th of a need
for a n ational and uniform compilation of police statistics. This
need was expressed by law enforcemen t executives m any years ago.
In 1930, crime reports were solicited from police depar tm en ts throughou t t he Nat ion b ased on uniform classifications and procedures
developed by the Committee on Uniform Crime Records of the
In tern a tion al Ass'ociation of Chiefs of P olice (IACP). In th at year
th e F ederal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), on request of the above
organiz ation, as urned the role as the national clearinghouse.
The Commi ttee on Uniform Crime R ecords, IACP , con tinues to
ser ve in an advisory capacity to the FBI in the oper ation of this
Program . The assistan ce of the Committee is especially valu able in
~ctively prom oting the qu ali ty of the repor ts supplied by the cooperating law enforcemen t agencies . In this connection , the Field Ser vice
Division of t he IAC P is also playing an active and effective p ar t in
quali ty con trol through surveys of police record and crime reporting
$ys tems . Dr. P eter P. L ejins, Professor , D epartmen t of Sociology,
U niversity of l\!Iaryland, con tinues as a consultan t to the FBI in t he
condu ct of this Progr am.
T he Committee on Unifo rm Crime R ecords at its April, 1965,
meeting reaffirm ed the purpose and obj ectives of the Uniform Crim e
R epor ting Program. Briefl y, the Committee approved a more
refin ed collection of robbery by type, a revision in the lar ceny classification , a special n ationwid e st1Tvey on sex offenses, restated its
position wi th r eo-ard to the defini tion of au to theft, and the form at
b
u tilized in th e publication of crime statistics .
The Commi ttee at the foregoing meeting and al o dur ing the
course of the Octo ber , 1965, m ee ting discus::;ed the need to fm ther subdi vide a numb er of the broad crim e chtssificat ions u tilized in the
Progr am . A detailed breakdown of lar ceny by type of tbef t was
developed and in troduced as a collection item beginning in J anu ary,
1966. While thi breakdown of the larceny cla sifi cation pro vides
for a better unders tanding of the natm e of this offen e, it will also
serve to iden tify types of theft which could be u tilized as a Crim e
Index category. The dollar valu ation of lar ceny as present!~ used
would be elimin ated in favor of a collec tion of lar ceny by type w1thou t
regard to the value of proper ty stolen . The experience gained from

Objectives
The fundamental objective of this Program is to produce a reliable
fund of nationwide criminal statistics for administrative and oper ational use of l aw enforcement agencies and executiv es. At the same
time, meaningful data is provided for other professionals with related
interests in the crime problem and for schol ar s, as well as to inform
the public of general crime conditions.
Specifically, the means utilized to attain t h ese goals are : ( 1) an
attempt is made .to measure the extent, fluctuation and distribution
of serious crime in the United States through the use of a C rime
Index consisting of seven selected offenses. This count is based on
these seven offenses being reported to the p olice or coming directly to
their attention . (2) The total volume of all types of criminal offenses
is compiled as they become known by police arrests. (3 ) Since the
above are also measures of l aw enforcement activity, r el ated data is
collected to demonstr ate eff.ectiveness of enforcement activit ies
available p olice str ength and significant factors invol ved in crime'.

�Agents of the FBI are widely utilized to encomage new contributors
and to assist t hem by explaining t he procedmes and definitions
necessary under t his uniform system.
On a m on thly b asis, city police, sheriffs and state police report the
number of offenses that become known to them in the following crime
categories : criminal homicide, for cible r ape, robbery , assault, burglary ,
larceny, and au to theft . T his coun t is taken from a r ecord of all
complain ts of crimes received by the police from victims or other
sources or discovered by the police in their own operations . Complain ts determined by police investigation to be unfounded are eliminated from t his count. The number of "offenses known" in these
crime _categories is r eported to t he FBI without regard to whether
anyone is arr ested , stolen pr operty is recovered, local prosecu tive
policy , or any other consideration. Police agen cies repor t . on a
monthly basis the total numbe_r of these crimes which they clear by
arrest and, separately , the crim es cleared by the arres t of persons
under 18 year s of age. P olice additionally r eport certain other
analytical data pertaining to specific crime ca_~egories, including total
arrest m ade for t he month for all criminal acts sep arated as to adult s
and juveniles .
In annu al r epor ts, " offenses known" data and clearances by arrest
are summarized by t he con tributors. Annual form s provide a repor t
of persons arrested for all criminal offenses with respect to age, sex
and race of the offender , as well as an accoun ting of the number of
persons formally charged and their disposition . P olice employee data
a.re collected annually, including the number of police killed and
assaulted.
Reporting A rea
During the calendar year 1965, crime repor ts were received from
law enfor cement agencies repr esen ting 97 percen t of the total Uni ted
States population living in s tandard me tropolitan st atistical area ·,
89 percent of the population in other cities, and 75 percen t of t he
rural population . The combined coverage account for 92 percent
of the national population .
Pre entation of crime data by area as used in this publication
follows as closely as practical the definitions u ed by the Bmeaus of
the Budget and Census for standard metropolitan s tatistical areas and
other cities. There is, however , some devia tion insofar as the rmal
area i concerned. For crime repor ting purpo es r ur al is generally t he
unincorporated portion of a coun ty ou tside of st andard metropolitan
stalistical areas. In addition, sheriffs' dep ar tmen ts or st ate police
agencies frequently provide cover age for m all in corporated com munities which do not provide t heir own p olice ser vice. These places
43
�' ..
are characteristically more rural t h an urban , t hus t he crime counts
for these places are included in the rural tabulations . In addition,
statistics are pr esented in certain t ables r elat ive to " suburban". areas .
A suburb an area consists of cities wit h 50,000 or less popula t10n too-ether with coun ties which lie within a standard metr opolitan statisti~al area. I n this use of suburban t he core city experience is , of
course, excluded . T he subm·ban .area con cept is u sed b ecause of t h e
peculiar crime conditions which exist in t hese communit ies surrounding the major core cit ies. These metropolitan areas are n ot rur al in
nature, yet neither are they compar able to lar ge cit ies al though they
h ave many of t he problems identified with t he latter .
Standard metropolitan statistical areas are generally m ade up of an
entire county or counties having at least one core city of 50 ,000 or
mor e inh abitants, wit h t h e wh ole meeting the requirements of certain
metr op olitan char acteristics. I n New Engl and , "town" in stead of
"county" is used to describ e st and ard metrop olitan stat istical areas.
These towns do not coincide gener ally wit h established crime r eporting units; t h erefor e, metrop olitan stat e economic areas in New
E ngland are used in this area tabul ation since they en comp ass an
entire county or counties. Stand ard metropolit an stat istical areas
mal~e up an estimated 67 p ercent of the total United States population .
Other cities are urb an places outside standard metrop olitan statistical areas. Most of these places of 2 ,500 or more inhabitants ar e
inc_orporated and co~ prise 12.6 percent of the 1964 estimated p opu lat10n: Rura_l areas are made up of t he unincorporated p or t ion of
counties outside of m·b an places and standard m etrop olitan statistical
areas a:1d repr:sent 20.4 _Percent of ou r n ~t ion al p opul ation. T h r ough out this Progr am, sheriffs, county poh ce and m an y st ate p 1·

�or probable incompleteness or ch anges in repor ting policy. Necessary
ari thmetical adjustmen ts or un usual vari ations are brough t t o the
attention of the submitting agency by correspondence . Dming 1965
17, 101 letters were addressed to contributor s primarily as a result of
,·erific at ion and evalu ation processes. Corresp onden ce wit h contri but ors is t he principal tool for super vision of qu ality. N ot only
are the individ ual reports studied, but also periodic t rends for indi,·idual reporting units are prep ared , as are crim e r ates in descending
or der for all un its gro uped for general com p arability to assist in detecting vari ations and fl uctuation s possibly due to some reason other
than chance. For the most p art, the problem is one of keeping t he
contributors informed of the type information necessary to the success
of this Program.
The elimin at ion of duplication of crime repor t ing by th e various
agen cies is given constant attention. In addition to detailed instrirctions as to the limits of repor ting jurisd ictions between heriffs and
police in urban places, lis ts of urban places by county are furnish ed to
sheriffs, county police, and in some in stan ces state police organ izations .
Uniform Crime R eportin g h as been taugh t to all law enfo rcement
officers attendin g the FBI N ation al Academ y. Th e Academy was
establish ed in 1935, and there are 2,972 gradu a tes wh o are s till in law
enfo rcemen t , over 27 percent of whom are th e execu t ive heads of
law enforcemen t agen cies . Th e FBI al so presents this subj ec t t o
region al police sch ools t hroughou t the countr y.
Con tact by Special Agents of the FBI are 11tilized to enlist th e
<:ooper a tion of new contribu tors an d to eJq>lain the purpose of this Program and th e methods of. assembling inform a tion for repor tin g. Wh en
corresponden ce, in cludin g specially designed ques tionnaires, fails,
~pecial Agents may be d irected to visit th e contributor to affir matively
resolve the m isunderstan ding.
Variations from the desired rep or tin g s tandards which cannot b e
re,;olved by the steps ind icated above are brought to th e attention of
the Comm ittee on Un iform Crime R ecords of th e I ACP. The CommiLLee may designate a representative to make a personal vi it to the
local department to assist in the n eeded revision of record and
reporting methods .
It is clear, of course, that regardless of the extent of the s tatis t ical
verification processes used by th e F BI , the accm acy of the data as:;em bled under this P rogr am depen ds up on the degree of sin cere effort
exerted by each contributor to m eet the n ece sar y standards of
reporting and, for this reason, the F BI is not in a position to vou ch
for the validity of Lhe reports received .

�The Crime Tota ls
Communities not represented by crime r epor ts are rel a t ively few ,
as discussed previously and as shown b y an examin ation of th e table_s
which follow presenting 1965 cr ime to tals for the I ndex of Crime classifications . The FBI conducts a ce:m tinuing p r ogr am to further r edu ce
the un r epor ted areas .
Within each of th e three areas-stand ar d metr op olitan stat istical ,
other urb an, and rur al - it is assumed that the unreported portion
had th e same proportionate crime exp erience as th at for which reports
were r eceived. In lieu of figures for the entire year from those
agencies, repor ts for as many as 9 months were accepted as sufficien tly
representative on which to b ase est im ates for the year . Estim ates
for um·eported areas are b ased on the r eported crime experience of
similar areas within each state. Cer tain refinements are made of this
b asic estimating procedure as t h e need arises .
Crime Trends
Crime d ata for tr ends are homogeneous to th e extent t h at fio·ures
from identical r ep orting units are u sed for each of the p eriods rabul ated. E xclusions are m ade when figures from a repor tin o- unit ar e
ob viously inaccur ate for any p eriod or when it is a scert: ined th at
unusu al fluctu ations are due to su ch var i ables as improv ed r ecor d
·procedures and not t o ch an ce.
As a matter of stand ar d proce_dure, crime trends for individu al pl aces
are analyzed by the FBI five tim es a y e ar . Any significan t incre ase

Classification of Offenses
A stumbling block to a unifor m national crime repor ting system in
the United States r esults from vari ations in definitions of criminal
violations among the states. This obst acle, insofar as uniformity of
definitions is concerned , was removed by the adop tion of an arbitrary
set of crime classifications. T o some extent the title of each cl~ssification connotes in a general way its content. However , in r eadi1w the
explanation of each category, it is very important to keep in minci'th at
because of t he differences among the state codes ther e is n o possibility
in a system su ch as t his to distinguish between crimes by design ation s
such as "felony" and "misdemeanor."
A continuing progr am is cari-ied out to furnish contributors with
timely supplemental instructions as t h e need arises in certain classifications. These are aimed at the clarification of any misunderstandings which may arise and the redirection of attention to the proper
application of classification procedmes under this system .
Brief definitions of crime classification s utilized in this P rogram are
H ted below :
1. Criminal homicide.- (a) Mmder and nonnegligent man. laugh.:
t er : all willful felonious homicides as distinguished from death s
caused by negligence. Excludes attempts to kill, as aults to kill,
suicides, accidental deaths, or justifiable homicides. Justifiable homicides are limited to : (1) the killing of a person by a peace officer
in line of duty; (2) the killin o- of a person in the act of committing a
felony by a privat e citizen. (b) Manslaughter by negligence : any
death which t he police investigation establishes was primarily attributable t o gross negligence of some individual other than the victim .
2 . Forcible rape. - Rape by force, assault to rape and attempted
rape. Excludes statutory offenses (no force used - victim un der
age of con sent).
3. Robbery. - Stealing or taking anything of value from the person
by for ce or violence or by putting in fear , such as strong-arm robbery,
st ickups, arm ed robbery, assault to r ob , and attempt to rob.
4. Aggravated assault. - Assault with intent to kill or for the purpose of inflicting severe bodily injury by shooting, cutting, stabbing,
maiming, poisoning, scalding, or by t he use of acids, explosives, or
other means. Excludes simple assault, assault and b attery, fighting,
etc.
5. Burglary-breaking or entering. - Burglary, housebreaking,
safecrackin g, or any unlawful entry to commit a felony or a the£ t,

6. Larceny- theft (except au to theft).-(a) Fifty dollars and over
in va.lue; (b) under $50 in value. Thefts of bicycles, automobile accessories, sh oplift ing, p ocket-picking, or any stealin g of property or

�The Index of Cri1ne, 1965
I n this section, tabulations are shown to indicate the probable
extent, :fluctuation and distribution of crime for the United States
as a whole , geographic divisions, individual states and standard
metropolitan statistical areas . T he meastu-e u sed is a Crime Index
consisting of seven important offenses which are counted as they
become known to the law enforcement agencies . Crime classifications
used in the Index are : murder and nonnegligent 11.1.ansl aughter, for cible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary-breaking or entering ,
larceny $50 and over, and auto theft.
The total number of criminal acts that occur is unknown, but those
that are reported to the police provide the first means of a count.
Not all crimes come readily to the attention of the police ; not all
crimes are of sufficient importance to be significant in an index; and
not all important crimes occur with enough regularity to be meaningful
in an index. With these considerations in mind, the above crimes
were selected as a group to furnish an abbreviated and convenient
meas me of the crim.e problem.
It is important to remember in reviewing the tabl es in this section
that the volume of crime in a state or standard metropolitan s t atistical area is subject to the factors set forth on page vii . Estimates
of cmrent permanent population are used to construct crime rates .
With our highly mobile population all communities, metropolitan
areas and states are affected to a greater or lesser deoTee b"'r the el

Oct.24.1967 / icago Lea s U.S. In egro Policemen Continued froin page 5 incidents don't blossom into ugly racial turmoil. Griffin and Williams both happen to be Negroes - officers of the kind that many Chicago police officials believe can do a better job in tense racial situations than white officers can. They have the "feel" of the ghettos. Chicago's Negro policemen are more numerous than in any other city in America. Department spokesmen estimate there are between 3,000 and 3,500 Negroes on the 10,967-member police force. A study by the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law put the number at 2,940. Either way, Chicago ·s percentage of Negro policemen is second only to Baltimore's. Taking the lower figure of the Lawyers' Committee, the Negro contingent is 26.8 per cent of the department. Chicago's 812,637 Negro citizens make up only 22.9 per cent of the city's over-all population of 3,550,400. Included in the ranks of Negro policemen are 91 sergeants, 7 lieutenants and 5 captains. Four of the captains are district commanders. Most Decorated Officer or for the department is to investigate all incidents of bigotry or discrimination with-in the department and in its dealings with the public. No one pretends, however, that the department's full integration and its policy of fairness in promotions have solved all its problems. At the time Mosby was interviewed he had just written a story about an attractive Negro woman's complaint that several policemen-Negro and white-had staged an illegal gambling raid on her home, without a search warrant, and roughed her up. "I couldn't tell you a lie and say the Negro community is completely satisfied with the department," says Deputy Chief Nolan. "They're not. We're not perfect by a long shot. But we certainly try to do every damn thing we can. Nolan is a Negro, too. There are now two ways an officer can advance to high command positions in the Chicago department. Most of them do it the hard way-by competing against other officers on civil service examinations. Commander Sims made his civil service rank of captain by placing first on a list of 200 lieutenants who took the examination. He was the first Negro ever to top an exam list. The department's most decorated officer is a burglary detail detective, Howard SpoonSpecial Recognition er, 35. He is the only Negro ever to win the But under the system of reforms that WilLambert Tree Gold Medal Award for "exson brought to the department seven years ago there also is a way to give special recceptional bravery."

"The sole factor to be considered is whethQuick Rea ction Time er a man is the best man for the job." "George Sims has a tremendous rapport Policy Continued This policy has been continued by Supt. James B. Conlisk Jr., who succeeded the retiring Wilson on the day Big Jim Nicholaou shot Julius Woods. As a result, "there are people in positions of command who have some idea of the problems in the Negro ghettoes," says Don Mosby, police reporter for the Daily Defender, the nation's biggest Negro daily newspaper. "If a Negro can go to a Negro captain and explain his difficulty, it creates, psychologically, a much better situation. A Negro officer is more acutely attuned to his problems. "I was raised here," Mosby adds. "I went through some of the bad years. It used to be if you were Negro with an Irish name and you got stopped by a cop, you would end up getting knocked on your butt. Things have changed." About 60 per cent of Chicago's two-man patrol cars carry one Negro officer and one white. There aren't enough Negro officers to complete the job. "Who an officer works with has nothing to do with how effectively he does his job," says Lieutenant Williams. "We have had here, to my knowledge, one instance where a white officer refused to work with a Negro on strictly those grounds- the man's color . I feel sure that if there were others I'd be aware of it." Williams' job as human relations coordinat- with the gangs in his district, and I do mean gangs. The Cobras. The Vice Lords.

This is accomplished through constant contacts with neighborhood action groups, civil rights organizations, even outfits like the American Nazi party. Community services sergeants are assigned to all 20 police districts to maintain lines of communication with the public. Sergeant Wilson, the man who made the 175 telephone calls the day Julius Woods was shot, is one of them. Capt. Thomas P . Hayes, the department's community relations coordinator, runs a series of monthly workshops in each district at which the department goes looking for criticism. "We_ never went out seeking complaints before," Hayes says. "We don't condone brutality or discrimination·. When it's brought to our attention to take the proper action and report back to the complainant as quickly as possible." The department's Internal Investigations Division helps in these investigations, but it doesn't have the final say ever ·whether the police were right or wrong. An attorney reviews all its investigations and has the power to alter or overrule its findings. He seldom has to. "The policeman who might be responsible for an incident today i s not doing the department any damn good," says Nolan. "If he's covered up for the first time, he might touch off something next time that would involve the whole city." Spanish-Amer-icans Soug ht Richard Heffernan, the department's assistant personnel director, has been mor e concerned about r ecruiting Spanish-American and P uerto Rican officers lately tban be has Negroes. "We realized the problem with the Spanish before the Spanish came to us," he said. , " We surveyed the force and realized we didn't have as many as we should. We p robably had four Spanish-speaking sergeants with Spanish backgrounds." Courses were set up to teach more patrolmen on the force how to speak Spanish, and Heffernan got from the Civil Ser vice Commission the names of more ' than 100 a DETECTIVE HOWARD SPOONER, LEFT, MOST DECORATED OFFICER IN CHICAGO Here he receives Lambert Tree Gold Medal Award for exceptional b ra ve ry in ceremony three years ago.

Mexican-Americans and Puerto Ricans who had taken the entrance exams and failed. All of them were invited to take a preexamination study course ·set up under the Act. Those with jobs were to attend 40 weeks of classes in night school. Those who were unemployed would go for 20 weeks of dayti~ classes and would get an allowance during training. The first class of 15 men graduated last Aug. 18. Thirteen passed the civil service examination. "There's still a problem, though," said Heffernan. " One man is definitely out because even though he could pass the test in English, he can't speak it well enough to be a policeman. Another was too short, and a third was just too far underweight. So there are three who aren't going to make it." Training Best Solution Heffernan said he feels training, both for entrance examinations and promotions, is the best way to get more minority group representation in police departments. "I realize some of the more militant Negroes would say, 'Forget the civil service. Give it to us'," Heffernan said. "But I don't believe at all in reducing our requirements. . "The criminal isn't getting any dumber. He's getting smarter every day. Further more, he said, reducing the requirements for some officers and not for others would only create resentment and internal strife in a police depar tment. Lieutenant Williams, who might fit Heffernan's definition of a militant Negro, said in his opinion th~ only attributes necessary for a good police officer are good health, judgment and the ability to reason. "I'm familiar with all those excuses," he said. "But I r egard them as just that-excuses. · " Any in-depth study of ~ department will show that the men who have gotten the promotions are no . better qualified than any other officer. I r ealize that is a pretty broad statement. "But it's easy to say they can't do it if they've never been given an opportunity to do it. "It doesn't lend itself to ready solutions," Williams said. " Somebody in a uthority has got to assert himself. When he does, he'll find he doesn't stand alone." �T HE D EN V ER P O ST Chief Says Minority Officers "The fact partmem i Thoma J. · '·They are o Judases and s '"l'heir pres ce swer all th charges you."

San Francisco's l,lalO-man Police Department is one of e many in metropolitan centers that is in the throes of trying to develop a war able plan for riot control as a result of the growing militancy of the U.S. civil rights movement. Like manv others. it has been accused of police bruta.lity a t times and of dsicriminating against minorities at times. And it has the same personnel pr lems that aggravate th~ situatian elsewhere. It is short oi men. It has fe\ er 'egro officers than it would like to have and than the city's civil rights leaders would like to ha e. It has no ·egro officers in command positions. Critics 'who seek: simple solutio say it's no great problem lo r ecruit and promote m ore Negro policemen. But police administrators interviewed at the r ecent convention of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) in Kansas City, Mo., said the opposite is true, especially in the larger cities. More 1 \i an E~ua\1 If a city bends" its civil service rules or fi nds a way to sidestep them for the benefit of minority group officers, it is declaring them more than equal. "The obligation is on the man himself," said P olice Chief Frank C. Ramon of Seattle, Wash. " Any man who is competent to pass the entrance examination can prepare himself to pass the promotional exams. But it requires diligence and continuity of ef- fort." There are fewer than 12 Negroes on Seattle's 1.001}-man force. One of them is a lieutenant. commanding the city jail staff, and another is a patrol division sergeant. "The whole design of civil service is to give each man an equal opportunity for advancement," Ramon said. "During his time in rank he can prepare for the promotional tests. " San Francisco has developed programs to Seeing this, he said, young Negro men opt to remain a black brother instead of going over to Whitey's side. Spec ial Classes Offered Good C ommanders? Special classes are offered at San Francisco Sta e C liege for any policeman who ants to take a promotional exam and who suspects he can't make the grade. " We encourage - in fact we insist to a degree - th.at the Negro officers take part in the program to gi e them an equal chance, Cahill said. But ou can't have special training for minorities alone. That's discrimination in reverse, and you cannot do it. You just can't do it." · So far only one 'egro patrolman in San Francisco bas qualified for promotion to ser- geant. 'Ib.e Bay City's recrui1ing drive was a failure on its first effort. "We put on a program jointly sponsored b · the department and the adult education division to enable minorities to take a course for entrance, Cahill said. ' 'We only got "J:l to sign up and about half of them were Negro. Dropouts lo ·ered t.he class to 5, and it as discontinued. «we advertise," he said. "We do everything possible to get Negroes to come into the department. But I would rather pay overtime lo the men in the department meeting the standards than lower the standards · to bring more men in. " Since our race riots we ha,e trouble recruiting anybody-not just Negroes." Do Ne gr o es make good commanders? Definitely yes, said Deputy Chief Richard Simon of Los Angeles. " Negro officers in our department are shown no favors and no restrictions " he said. " As a r esult they're proud of. their jobs. We find .that a Negro officer who passes our exam and enters the academy is as good as anybody else. He's just a person. Simon said he didn't know exactly how many Negroes are on the 5,200·man Los Angeles force, because the California F air . Employment P ractices Department _prohibits keeping statistics on r ace. But he said there are several hundred, including many in command positions. "Our promotional examinations are extremely competitive," he said, "particularly above lieutenant. A man has to study for months or years to pass. A Negro officer has to want to work that hard: Ours do." The department is completely integrated. Los Angeles, about 14 per cent Negro, has instituted a series of public meetings and presentations in schools to recr uit more Negro officers. Plans are being made to give entrance examinations, both written and physical, in every police station instead of one central location. Applicants will be able to take the exams in a day. Pay Not C ompetitive Revamping Training But one thing that police officials suspect, Ramon and Cahill included, is that men and women who are well educated and who would be able to pass rigid civH service exams simply don't want to work for policemen's pay. " Let's face it," said inspector Paul Lenz of the Los Angeles P olice Department. "There is the same demand for the welleducated Negro today as for the well-educated Caucasian. We 've got to start competing in the way of salaries for the educated man, be he Negro or white." Another possible reason for difficulty in recr uiting Negroes was suggested by Herman Johnson, a Negro and a member of the Kansas City, Mo., Human Relations Commission. "Negroes see no image in the _police department any more," he said. " The history has been, throughout the country, that the police departments are not the kindest and fairest organizations in their dealings with the people of the inner city areas." A white Kansas City, Kan. , government official who didn't want to be quoted directly expressed the view that Negroes who advance to the higher ranks in police work "lose touch" with the Negro community at large and are looked upon as members of the It also is revamping its training from a straight three months in the police academy to a 20-week course of alternate academy classes and field work- getting the rookies out on the streets with regular officers to see how it's done. • Lenz and Simon said the department hopes to make testing and training more available to applicants without lowering the department's standards. The only police official interviewed by The Denver Post who said he doesn't have trouble recruiting Negroes was Arthur Andrew Chojnacki of Hamtramck, Mich., a city of 40,000 that is enclosed on three sides by Detroit. Chojnacki, a policeman 27 years, said there has always been a substantial numb'er of Negro officers on his 84-man department. There are now 15, including a Negro lieutenant, who succeeded Chojnacki as head of the 16-man detective bureau, and two Negro sergeants. Chojnacki said he settled on the Negro lieutenant as detective chief after a trial period in which he rotated command monthly between the Negro and two white lieutenants. "The men accepted it very well," he said. "They take their orders. He's actually fair- white power structure. 2 Kansas Citys Have Negro KANSAS CITY, Mo.-In most respects Lt. Col. Clifford A. Warren and Maj. Boston Daniels are no different from career officers on metropolitan police departments elsewhere in the country. They don't want to be. But in some settings-Denver, for example -they would stand out for one reason alone. Both men are Negr'les with command responsibi,itiec;. Warren, tall and trim, is 56 years old but looks under 40. It's been 28 years since he entered the Kansas City, Mo., Police Department as a probationary patrolman. Heads Division in Department He now heads the department's Youth, Women's and Missing Persons Division and .is one of the top half-dozen police comtnandPrs on this side of the Kansas River. He also is the highest-ranking Negro polic&man in Missouri Daniels , 62, is the graying, heavyset detective chief of the Kansas City, Kan., Po- lice Department. Like Warren, he answers only to his chief. A policeman 22 year s, Daniels was the first Negro officer in Kansas to win his lieutenant's bars, the first to make captain and is now the state's only Negro major . Civil service in the two Kansas Citys, however, doesn't cover all ranks of policemen, so there is room for promotions to be made outside such narrow limits as examination scores. Chief Promote s in Kansas On the Kansas side, civil service competition applies only to men making their original applications for police work. All promotions are made by the chief, who first asks for recommendations from his three division commanders. There are civil service exams for the ra,nks of sergeant, lieutenant and captain in Kansas City, Mo., with the captain test added only recently. Majors and lieutenant colonels are appointed by the chief. • I e The different civil service r ules may be one reason for the different roles Negroes play in the two police departments. In Kansas there are 41 Negro· officers out of 223 men. A Negro captain and two Negro lieutenants work under Daniels in the detective division, and there are Negro sergeants in the auto theft and youth bureaus, also headed by Daniels. A Negro lieutenant and a Negro corporal work in the unifor m division, and a Negro sergeant is on the motorcycle squad. On the 1M issouri Side In Kansas City, Mo., however, there are only 50 Negro officers out of a cur rent departmental strength of 922. And there are no Negro supervisors in the ranks between Warren and the seven Negro sergeants . "Kansas City is a great token town," said Dr. Girard T. Bryant, a Negro educator appointed to the Kansas City (Mo. ) Board of Police Commissioners 3½ years ago by Missouri Gov. War ren Hearnes. "Cliff (Warren) is a very good officer- r 0 try to recruit more Ne o officers and to help them p.: - their promotional tests once they have progr~ through the patrol ra Tuesday, Oct. 24, 1967 7 ,., er than the white ones ar e- more understanding. To tell you the truth the men would rather work for him. " When the Detr oit rioters bore down on Hamtramck last July, Chojnacki said, " Our colored officers were just as anxious to get out there and stop it as the white ones were. " Chojn~cki and his men, using· what he called " P olish tanks" - big garbage compaction trucks-sealed off the six main thoroughfares into Hamtramck and in two places turned back crowds of rioters. $25,000 in Loot Recovered "We made 72 arrests the first night and recovered $25,000 in loot," he said. " Detroit loot. We didn't have a broken window in our city." Hamtramck is about 80 per cent P olishArnerican, and a substantial percentage of its remaining citizens ar e Negro. Chojnacki said his department hires any Negro who can pass the civil service exams and background check, and all promotions are based on civil service standards. St. Louis police officials have doubled the number of Negroes on their department in two years. There are now more than 300 out of an authorized str ength of 2,100 men. It was done by use of a cadet system, an ~ intense recr uiting ca mpaign in which Negro stars of the St. Louis Cardinals professional football team spoke at predominantly Negro high schools, and with the help of civil rights organizations. There also is an incentive program in which any officer who brings in a new recruit gets five extra vacation·days. "We've got a Negro captain who saved us all kinds of trouble this summer," said Edward L. Dowd, president of the St. Louis Board of P olice Commissioners. "He's got 250-275 officers under him, and I guess 200 of them are white. When he handles a situation there isn't the backlash there would be with a white commander." There are 4 Negro captains, 5 Negro lieu. tenants and about 35 Negro sergeants in St. Louis. In Force's Best Interest " It is in the depar tment's best interest to recognize a fair number of Negro officers with promotions," Dowd said. "We{ve done· it, and the men haven't resented it. As long as you pick a man for his capabilities, whether he's a white officer or a Negro officer, the men are willing to work for him." A training program was set up at the St. Louis police academy last year' to help potential r ecruits pass their entrance examinations. But there is no special training for promotions. The academy staff will outline a study program for anyone who wants to take a promotional exam, but "a man's got to study and do it on his own time," Dowd said. " li he wants to go to junior college we'll pay his tuition and arrange his work schedule. After that it's up to him." 0 a very fi ne man. But one Negro commander isn't enough. We've never had a captain or a lieutenant, and we don't have any Negro commanders over district stations." Although he was critical of the gap in Negro policemen, Dr. Bryant said it wasn't a simple matter to correct. Lieutenant's Exam a Barrier "The big stumbling block seems to be that they can't pass the lieutenant's exam," he said. "The men themselves realize their shortcomings. Two of them told me they just simply flunked the exams. One veteran sergeant didn't answer 22 questions, and he has a college degree." He said 7 of the 11 Negro detectives on the department also have college educations. Colonel Warren doesn't. He has only a high· school diploma. Warren's progression through the rank::was sporadic, and was helped along times by civil rights organizations. "I think the idea of making Cliff asf' Continued on page 8 tr- �8 THE DENVER PO S l Tuesday, Oct. 24, 1967 Men JUdged By Abilities Continued from page 7 to the chief was just one of those things where they put somebody in a position to satisfy some of the complaints," Dr. Bryant said. Aide to Three Chiefs LT. COL. CLIFFORD WARREN Top-ranked Negro in Missouri. Warren actually was assistant to three chiefs over seven years. He served under Bernard C. Brannon and the present chief, Clarence Kelley, plus Col. E. I. Hockaday, a Missouri State Highway Patrol officer who served as interim chief between Brannon's departure and Kelley's selection. Later, apparently in response to complaints by civil rights organizations, he was made night commander of operations with more than 450 men and women under his control. During this three years, Warren said, he "tried to determine the nature of some of the complaints and do something about them." Warren said the department's policies concerning Negroes have changed in the last few years. "We have undergone a complete reorganization in which Negro officers are assigned throughout the department," he said. "This was not in response to the complaints. Plans had been made prior to the complaints, but we were trying to put each man in a job where he could best serve. "We're making every effort to get away from the idea of a Negro officer or a white officer," he added. "We go on the man's ability. Many of our district commanders often don't know whether a man's Negro or white. He sends the men out, and if they happen to be partners they work together. " Asked whether he thought he had ever spent an unreasonable time in rank, Warren said, "Fr ankly, from the time I was a patrol officer up to becoming a sergeant of detectives, yes. It took me 16 years. Testing Stricter Now "But things are different now. If you make the top of the (promotion) list, that's it. We've had stricter testing procedures the last 15 years." Was his delay in making sergeant because of discrimination? "Actually, I don't know. Let's put it that way. After I did make sergeant I advanced through the ranks the same as white officers." Herman Johnson, a member of the city's H u m a n Relations Commission and vice president of the Missouri chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, had a different view of promotions. The department still "gets all military when you start pressing them about promotions for Negroes," he said. "They give you this hokum that they didn't pass the exam, or that they passed the exam but failed the oral, or that they've got demerits against their records." Negroes Apparently Stay Away MAJ. BOSTON DANIELS Chief of detectives. Both department and Negro spokesmen agree, however, that the over-all shortage of Negro policemen in Kansas City, Mo., is a recruiting problem more than anything else. Many Kansas City Negroes apparently don't want to be policemen. Current estimates by the City Planning Commission place Kansas City's population at about 585,500 in a metropolitan area of more than 1.3 mi1Iion. Johnson said about 102,000 citizens in the city proper are Negro, or about 17 to 18 per cent. The 50 Negro officers on the Police Department constitute 5.4 per cent. MOTORCYCLE POLICEMEN NATHANiEL VEAL (LEFT) AND RUSSELL LEASBURG Assignments for Negr9 officers in Miami indicate the doub le standard has ended. The department now is trying to do something about recruiting more Negroes. A Negro sergeant works full time at it in Negro neighborhoods, and cooperation is being sought from ·predominantly Negro churches and civil rights organizations. But Johnson said deep-seated resentment against the department is going to make it difficult. "The mere fact that you don't have open occupancy is a factor, " he said. "A Negro policeman generally can't move into a better neighborhood and live with his peers. He has to live with the thugs," Johnson said, referring to the crime rates in the ghettoes. Another factor, he said, is Negroes' traditional inability to make rank higher than sergeant. centages-it just worked out that way. "If we can find a good, qualified man, regardless of who it is, we're going to grab him," he said. " Our Negro officers do a real good job." IL But the Police and Fire Departments both had been segregated in recent years. "They sent Negro officers to poliae Negro parts of town," said Todd H. Pavela, executive director of the city's Commission on Human Relations. Most of our police brutality complaints, until two years , ago, were - against Negro officers. They were sort of a law unto themselves. " Boston (Major Daniels) got his reputa~ tion for his excellent police work in the Negro community. He was sort of the unofficial Negro chief of police." Pay Is 'Pretty Good' Increasingly Tolerant View "The police department salary may be mediocre for a white man but it's pretty good for a Negro," he said. "Auto assembly lines, post office work or teaching are about the only jobs with comparable pay. But if they don't advance beyond the lower ranks, they figure , 'Why bother?' " Capt. Clifford Holbert, the department's per·sonnel officer, said recruiters are concentrating now on trying to . hire recently discharged servicemen or graduates of police science courses at Kansas City's Metropolitan Junior College or Central Missouri State College at Warrensburg. Regular recruiting pitches a.re -made at Richards-Gebaur Air Force Base outside Kansas City, Whiteman AFB at Knob Noster, Mo., and Ft. Leonard Wood n ea r, Waynesville, Mo. Missouri law requires that all Kansas City policemen be Missouri residents. But, says Dr. Bryant, " We have a hard time finding Negro recruits even when we go out of town." More recently the city has taken an increasingly tolerant racial view, partly because of the leadership of Mayor Joseph H. McDowell and partly as a r·esult of outside pressures. Four years ago the men in the two allNegro f i r e companies were assigned . throughout the department, and there are now a Negro district chief, 13 captains and a lieutenant in the Fire Department ranks. Negro and white police officers have been working side by side for two years, and a community relations unit was established about a year ago. Kansas City, Kan., Picture The Kansas City, Kan., population of about 180,000 also is between 17 and 18 per cent Negro, and the 41 Negro officers make up 18.4 per cent of the Police Department. Chief J . Frank Steach said there's been no conscious effort to equate the two per- 'On Road to Progress' Last Sept. 7 the three-man city commission passed a fair housing ordinance patterned after the Colorado state law. " The better-thinking Negro people in this town want good government, and it's being provided by the current administration," Major Daniels said. "The clergy and the Negro leaders feel we're on the r oad to progress." In the department itself, he said, "Right now we're riding all our district cars mixed. One Negr-o and one white officer. That's in all our heavy districts. "And it's workable. We try to give it everything we have. The boys are willing to work together, and they are." �THE DENVER POST

The ·oman's reaction was the kind Negro policemen iil alma t any Southern city could expect. . Sgt. C. J. Perry bad similar expenences. One woman, outraged at hearing a Negro answer the telephone at headquarters, demanded to talk to his superior. He transferred her to Perry. "Another nigger!" she exclaimed. "What the hell's going on down there? You got an all- igger police department?' ' Perry Can Laugh Now It wasn·t funnv at the time . but Perry can laugh now as he tells about it. " She thought all hope bad been lost," he said. Baugh, now 43, and Perry, now 47, are Ne"ro patrol lieutenar.t.s on the Atlanta PoIiC: Department. Baugh ta~es _ a . certain pride in the fact that his district_~n~ludes the Georgia State Capitol, the bailiwick of segre :itionist Gov. Lester .Maddox . Their commanding officer is the m u c h respected. nationally known Chief Hubert T. Jenkins 60, a member of President Jo ~ ~ son 's National Advisory Committee on Civil Disorder s and a past president of the Int~rnational Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP). . By his own admission, J enkins also is a former Ku Kl ux Klansman. Many Things Have Chang_ed But a lot of things have changed m Atlanta since the days when thousands of hooded Klansmen trooped up Stone Mountain 15 miles east of here to burn crosses and deal with the "1'1egro problem" with chains. rope and shotguns. No longer does a Georgia office seeker have to be a Klan member to be elected. "I'm a law enforcement officer," says Jenkins. "Regardless of what they say over at the State Capitol, the U.S. Supreme Court decisions are the law of the land." So Atlanta the most progressive of all Southern citi~s. bas bad a fully integrated police department for three years. Three of the 875-man department's 96 Negroes are lieutenants. Two are sergeants. Baugh is expected to make captain within a month. It hasn't always been that way, of course. Until six years ago Negro policemen were forbidden to patrol white neighborhoods. If a white was involved in a crime in a Negro neighborhood , the policy was for the Negro policeman to "detain" him and summon white officers to make the arrest. If t h e suspect was taken to jail, he could be sure that even there he wouldn't have to " mix" with Negroes. Onlv three vears ago the Atlanta Police Department dis banded its old 6 p.m. watch -an all-Negro outfit that supplemented the three rei-iiar ( all white) patrol watchesand assigned Tegroes throughout its r anks. Other Negroes derided them as "the YMCA cops." · The change from a segregationist department to one in which a Negro can now hope to make captain was long and gradual, and although political and citizen pressures sometimes had to make up for bis own lack of enthusiasm, no one discounts the importance of Jenkins' personal leadership. George Coleman, managing editor of the Atlanta Daily World, a Negro newspaper with a circulation of 25,000, calls Jenkins "the best police chief there's ever been in Atlanta. "He's a good man," Coleman said. "He's a flexible man. He and the mayor (Ivan Allen Jr.) are men who are logical in their thinking and who are able to see the chang-ing times. And they both used to be ardent segregationists." Incident Recalled Coleman recalled an incident several years ago when a white policeman called a Negro college professor "boy." Jenkins called his men together and told them : "Look the terms 'nigger' and 'boy' are offensive 'to 40 per cent of our population. Let's not use them any more." "It wasn't an order, exactly;• Jenkins told a Post reporter. "I just explained to them that if they offend people, it's going to make their job harder and create a lot of tr ouble we wouldn't ordinarily have. "But it came out on the front page of the New York Times the next day." Jenkins said be has "always bad good support from the mayor and the leaders of this community. Call it the power structure or whatever-the people who pay most of the money to get things done. "This has never been a labor community," he said. "It's always been a white c?lIar community, a business and commercial community. And if you l:t::.ve street fights or disturbances they don't like it. It's bad for business.-not only Negro business but white business as well ." Demands Still Coming In "We haven't satisfied all the Negroes," he said. "They're always demandfog this, that and the other thing. But in the Police Department we're trying to deal with people. Not with black people or white people. With people. Their color isn't importanl" Baugh, Perry and the other Negro ?fficers in Atlanta who have won promotions have done it on the basis of work performance and conduct, not on competitive civil service examinations. But there is no reason to believe they wouldn't have made it had there been civil service. Perry has a bachelors degree in French and English from Atlanta's Morehouse College and was a junior high scho.ol teacher before joining the department 16 years ago. Baugh, a former Marine drill instru~tor and one of the first Negroes ever recrmted into that branch of service, attended the University of Hawaii during his ·hitch in service but didn't graduate. He later took a Restriction s o n Unifo rm s When Negroes first came on the department i'1 1948 the year after Jenkins became chief they Jere forbidden to wear their unifor~ to or from work.

Since joining the department 15 years ago he has taken a supervisory course of 170 hours sponsored by the IACP and a Georgia Tech computer course, also under IACP auspices. The department is in the P:ocess of converting to electronic records-keepmg. Basis of Promotions Jenkins makes all promotions, however, on the basis of his men's past performance, giving some weight to results ~f _0:31 board examinations conducted by d1vis1on commanders. Men promoted to lieutenant or captain are on probation for a year_ before they are given civil service job protection. Ser geants and detectives have no such safeguards. They can be removed and demoted to patrolman again at any time. Since the men are under closer supervtsion there, practically all command officers come up through ·the detective bureau headed by Supt. Clinton Chafin. "Our Negro detectives' educational background, over-all, is probably be~ter ~an .~at of the white detectives," Chafin said. We have 15 Negro detectives now. "But because so many opportunities have opened up in the last few years that they haven't bad before, we're probably going to have -a hard time getting Negroes with such good educations from now on." Like J enkins Chafin doesn't think much of examination~ as a means of choosing men . . for supervisory positions. "A lot of times a man you think will make a good supervisor might not be the highest scorer on the exam," he said. '_'I'm dead set against examinations for detectives. "The two things we really try to watch for are a man ·s conduct and integrity, and his workload . Of course you have to ta~ into consideration educational factor s-his report-making ability and his ability to go into court and testify. "But we make no allowances. We treat all our people the same and expect as much from one as we do from the other." Attorney Disappointed Lack of a merit system is a source of disappointment to Richard C. Freeman, the liberal attorney who heads the Atlanta Board of Aldermen's Police Committee. "It embarrasses me for my city, for myself and for my Police Department when an officer who may be a damn good man and a good supervisor gets up before a television camera or a group of people to explain something and can hardly speak English," he said. "Our Negro officers by and large are ~s good or better than their coun~erp~ts , ID the white ranks " Freeman said. We ve been fortunate. We've got a couple of lieutenants I'd put up against anybody." . And Freeman said he favors puttmg more Negro commanders on the force. Pressing Need for It "It s not only helped the social situation but it's helped . the department," he said. " There's been a pressing need for it. B u t I'll say this. I'm absolutely, 100 per cent opposed to promoting any man just because he's black. He's got to be qualified." Freeman said low pay, the Jlazards of the job and the low esteem in which pol~cem1:n seem to be held have all put a crimp ID recruiting efforts. Work hours of Atlanta policemen have been dropped. from 48 to 40 a week in the ~ast four years, however, and r ecent pay raises will give beginning patrolmen $450 a year more than they used to get, although the pay is still low-$5,486 a year under the new schedule. . At the urging of the Police Committee a two-year course in police administration is being set up at Georgia State College in Atlanta.

I asked the superintendent of traffic why there weren't. Next time I drove through downtown I looked up and there they were. "I'm working now to get a captain. And as soon as I get a captain I'm going to try for a superintendent (equivalent to Denver's division chiefs). But I know you can't make all these changes at one time." Even though at one time there was a strong Klan influence in the Atlanta Police Departm~nt, Lieutenants Baugh ~~d Perry said they encountered little hostihty from white officers when they made their rank. "I think this/' Baugh said. "Where a w~te officer might not like me, he might not like a white supervisor for the same reason. I've never wofried, particularly, abo~t my men loving me, but I would and I contmue to hope that they respect me." All commanders in Atlanta act as counselors to men in the lower ranks . Of the 40 men on Baugh's counselor list, 34 are . wh~te. Perry has 30 whites out of 34 on his list. Both men's comm~mds are also predominantly white. " "Strangely enough/' said Perry, th~re was very little rese ntment among the whit~ officers. There was some, I guess, but 1t wasn't particularly noticeable ." Editor Coleman of the Wor ld, who as a police reporter had a ha~d in getting Negroes their present place m the Atlanta department, thinks the much-he:alded "Atlanta climate" in racial matters 1s exaggerated and tha t a lot remains to be done. But he adds : "Atlanta fo r Negroes, is a hell of a lot better tha~ any other place I've seen, I'll say that." �TH E D E N VER PO ST Tuesday, Ocl. 24, 1967 as~ Negro Strength Fade in Miami u as at used t - was set up in a little 30-by-50-foot building in the downtown Negro section. They had one or two patrol cars and about a dozen bicycles, which were used by the beat men who patrolled Liberty City. Besides the downtown and Liberty City Negro neighborhoods, Negro officers were permitted to patrol Cocoanut Grove, a third largely Negro section in south Miami. Then, when Headley became chief in August 1948, all Negro patrolmen with a year or more of experience were placed under civil service. With that the double standard came into being. Lieutenant Smith was the 34th Negro to join the department. He came on in 1950. Fortified with two years of college engineering study at Hampton Institute in Hampton, Va., Smith was one of the first two officers to pass the patrolman sergeant examination. He and three other Negroes failed their first lieutenant's exam in 1962. Two years lata- he placed 12th in a field of 125 whites and Negroes with a score of 90.5, six points off the leader 's, and finally got his bars in April of last year. " Since that time, H he said, "it's clear the examinations are available, and if a guy's willing to apply himself there's no reason he shouldn t take it and pass it."

many cities Negroes don't get. There also
is a Negro policewoman, and the o n I y
Negro in a class of 31 men who started
police academy training Sept. 25 already
had made cadet sergeant.
Miami's police force was lily white until
the wartime manpower shortage of 1944
coincided with an influx of Negro sailors
assigned to 7th Naval District headquarters.
It was largely through the work of Dr. Ira
P . Davis, a Negro dental surgeon who then
beaded half of the segregated civil defense
effort in Dade County, that the department
finally started hiring black policemen.
Negro sailors looking for action poured
into the central Negro neighborhoods downt o wn, and gambling, prostitution a n d
muggings skyrocketed. The Navy tried to
cope with the problem by assigning white
shore patrolmen in jeeps to the area. It
didn't work.
Negro SPs Sought
Davis finally persuaded Navy authorities
they should put Negro SPs on foot beats in
the neighborhood.
"The moment they got in here a n d
started working, all this stuff dropped to
practically nothing," Dr. Davis, now 71,
said. "They were the first Negro SPs in the
Navy, and that was the very thing I needed
to show it could be done and the impact it
could have."
Maj. Dan Rosenfeld, then Miami's city
safety director, and Dr. Davis then discussed the possibility of putting on some
Negro policemen. Rosenfeld agreed, but was
afraid to let the public know about it until
the men already were trained and ready to
go to work.
As a result, Davis said, five men were
selected from among Davis' civil defense
auxiliary police and were trained in secrecy
a t the Liberty City housing project on the
north side of town. They were sworn in on
the street in front of Davis' dentistry office on Aug. 31, 1944.
For several years the wartime policemen,
Negro and white, had no civil service status
because, Headley said, "They hired anything that could see lightning, hear thunder
and hold up a uniform."
Additional Re strictions
There were additional restrictions on Negro officers. They couldn't wear their uniforms except during duty hours. A separate
" precinct station"-the only one in Miami
" With their family backgrounds, Negroes
haven't been exposed to law enforcement as
a career, like the Monahans and Rileys,"
he explained. "What I'm saying is, I'm the
firs t generation. When I went to school there
were no Negro policemen.
"Their families think it's dangerous. It's
a job no Negro has ever worked in before."
Smith said he felt Negroes were failing
their exams because they aren't used to having to think about academic subjects.
" A Negro who decides to become a policeman makes the decision as a man," he
said. "He's got out of high school at 18 or
19 and maybe he's wor ked in a warehouse
moving crates back and forth for three or
four years.
"He's transferring from a job not related
to police work. He hasn't been in a situation where he's been turning these things
over in his mind. Ttterefore he fails the
exam.
"I think if we could get these guys to
warm up before taking the exams we could
enhance their chances of passing. I personally don't feel the exams are that hard."
_
The same is true of Negro officers who
fail the sergeant's exam , he said. Many of
them wait until the exam notice is posted,
four to six weeks before it's scheduled, and
only then start to study.
"It's not the idea that they're not qualified. It's that they're going into the examination cold. It's like a football team going
out on the fie.Id without knowing its plays.
They may look like football players but
they're not mentally conditioned to play the
game."
Social Stigma Linked to Job
Making Negroes want to be policemen is
another factor, Chief Headley sai<;I. Negro
children thr ew rocks at some of the early
patrolmen, and they were looked down upon
by some Negro adults.
"Since we changed our standards the bus
company here has integrated and has probably hired 400 of them as drivers," said
Lt. Col. Paul M. Denham, assistant chief
for operations.
"A lot of these men are the type of men
we'd like to have on the police department
-well-educated, cleancut and courteous-but
they'd rather go to work for the bus company than apply to our department, even
though our salary scale is higher. Apparently there's a social stigma attached to being
a policeman."
There already has been one adult education class in Miami to help applicants pass
the Civil Service entrance exams. A police
lieutenant is assigned full time at the University of Miami to a "war on poverty"
program aimed at getting more men pre-
3
re
Iiminary training in police work, but if a
man makes more than a specified low income level he can't take it.
Another program is being launched at
Miami-Dade J unior College, where officers
already on the department can take policerelated courses with the department paying half the cost.
In all of these programs the man himself
has to want to do the work.
" Of course since the civil rights movement got under way, a lot of Negro leaders want us to appoint them qualified or
not," Chief Headley said. "But I don't go
for that."
Lieutenant Smith Ag rees
Neither does L ieutenant Smith, who is second in command of a 60-man patrol shift
and wbo wears an expert revolver badge
because he studied books on shooting as
well as putting in his r equired time on the
pistol range.
"I can see a dual system where under
certain conditions they give field commissions, like in New York or in military service," he said. "But if a Negro cannot pass
the civil ser vice examination, in an integrated society, I say no. The only way he
should become a leader is to walk through
the leadership doer .
"If they want to help him, set up t h i s
warmup program for him, fine, but don't
cut the standard.8.-. We're trying to move
forwar d. We're trying to prove our worth."
Dr. Davis, one of Miami's most respected
Negro leaders and the only Negro on President Johnson's Advisory Committee on Older Americans, expressed the same philosophy.
"We had a hard time convincing some of
our early officers that they had to take the
patrolman's exam first before they could
take the sergeant's exam," he said. "They
wanted to be merely appointed to the rank
like one Negro officer was in P alm Beach.
"If you're demanding the same kind of
treatment, then doggone it, you've got to
make yourself understand you have to
qualify. You got to measure up."

Negroes Feel
Bias a Fact on
Denver Force
What chance does a Negro have for advancement and higher pay on the Denver
Police Department?
Depending on who says it, the answer to
that question is either '·none at all" or " as
much as anybody else."
. .
The department, and especially the C1_v1l
Service Commission, have come under fire
recently from Negro community leader s who
say a Negro - because of his. race - ~as
virtually no chance of becomm~ a pohce
command officer. The deck 1s stacked
against him.
.
History would seem to be on the side of the
critics.
It has been 20 years since the department
began hiring Negroes in any quantity, a~d
in all that time no policeman whose skm
was black has ever advanced higher than
.
.
patrolman or detective.
Some of the men most vitally involved m
the dispute tend to talk in absolutes, oversimplifying what is really a complex problem in a few carefully chosen sentences.
Negroes Believe It's Fact
Whether the racial discrimination charged
by Denver Negro leaders actually exists has
been open to argument, but the impo~tant
fact remains that many Negroes genumely
believe it is there.
It was in the hope that something could
· be done to change this belief that Mayor
Tom Cw-rigan wrote the Civil Service Commission last August and asked it to reexamine its testing procedures.
"The power to change things," said J ames
F . Reynolds, director of the Colorado Civil
Rights Commission and a Negro himself,
" lies in the other community where they
really don't believe it exists."
Civil rights leaders across the country
have \ate\y turned a critica\ eye on police
departments which don't have representative numbers of minority policemen within
their ranks.
Much of the impetus for this movement
stemmed from the r-eport of the President's
Commission on Law Enforcement and Administration of Justice, which recommended
that all departments recruit and train " a
sufficient number of minority-group officers
at all levels of activity and authority."
'Quota ' System
From this beginning, apparently, came
the "quota system" that many civil rights
spokesmen and some police departments have
adopted as gospel. If the1 e is X per cent
Negro citizens in a community, there should
be X per cent Negro policemen and X per
cent Negro command officers.
Other departments have resisted quotas as
unwarranted intrusions on entrance and promotional systems that have worked with
varying degrees of s uccess for years.
"Frankly," said Detective Sgt. Paul Montoya, a member of Denver's largest minority,
"I resent outside influences using statistics
as a basis for careers. It destroys the minorities and causes hard feelings all around.
It's none of their business."
"Nobody gave me anything on this job,"
said Police Chief Harold Dill, a man who
took two entrance examinations, three sergeant's exams and two for captain. "I had
to work and scratch for everything I got."
Viewed against the broad background of
the civil rights movement and incidents of
urban rioting, however, the scarcity of Negro
policemen in Denver's or any other department takes on extra importance, Negro
spokesmen say.
'Would Help in Tension'
Police-minority relationships to rioting
are of extreme importance," Reynolds said.
"Take a look at your rioting about the
country. In the majority of incidents this
was the trigger, and I don't think it was an
accident. "
DETECTIV E CLAREN CE N ELSO N AND DETECTIVE SGT. PAUL MONTOYA OF DENVER DISCUSS AN INVESTIGATION
Se rge ant Montoya, o n ly Denver office r quoted dire ctly in this article, said the local syste m is " not pre dicated on merit."
" If we had more Negro officers in command and more Negro officers period, it
would help in some of these tension spots
right here in our own city," said the Rev.
Cecil Howard, pastor of Shorter Community
AME Chur ch and chair man of the East
Denver Ministerial Alliance.
" If a person of color were able to relate
to Negro officers I think it would help immeasurably. But they don't have enough
Negro officers for the younger Negroes to
be able to relate to. They see faces that are
hostile.
" We don't feel the white power structure
is really in sympathy with the need for
more Ne~;ro oi-tken., the Rev . Mr. Hughes
said. " They think the minority situation
here is pretty stable. But we had two or
three close calls last summer."
Negro leaders feeJ there is discrimination
against Negro officers in both the department and Civil Service procedures-perhaps
not openly, maybe even not consciously.
Their prime targets are tests used by the
commission, its oral review boards and assignments that Negro officers get on the
Police Department.
Reynolds, City Councilman Elvin Caldwell and others have urged the commission
to make a thorough study of its testing procedure to determine whether it is completely
fai r to minority officers.
Built-In Disadvantage
"I wonder if the tests themselves don't
have a built-in cultural disadvantage," Reynolds said. " W.e have found that many tests
being used by employers - especially some
of the older ones - serve the purpose of
trapping and screening out minority applicants.
"This wasn't done deliberately, but many
of them were compiled by middle class college graduates, and many who don't fit into
that category have a difficult time passing
them .
"I think, too, that the police department
has traditionally limited the assignments
given Negro policemen so that their experience as they approach the promotional exams is very limited."
Several Denver policemen said, however,
that although experience is some help the
tests are weighted more on book knowledge
than on practical police work.
One officer whose name doesn't appear
in this article said there are a few command officers who have made it all the way
up the line with practically no experience
on the street.
"If you've got a desk job you can sit there
and study on city time," he said. "Out on
the street you can't. ' 1
Montoya, the only officer who agreed to
be quoted by name, said the present testing
system "stinks," but not of discrimination.
" It's not predicated on merit, " he said.
"and dammit, when you don't have a system
based on merit it's worthless. The men deserve to be led by the best qualified and
most deserving man, and the present system doesn't do it."
He said he wasn't talking about any individuals but the system itself. As for the
charges .of poor assignments for Negroes
Montoya said, " If, you're a quality officer ,I
defy anybody to shunt you off somewhere.
The work is out there."
Councilman Caldwell, who was complaining
about Jack of Negro commanders in the department long before it became a part of the
national civil rights picture, said the oral
·board reviews are one possible source of discrimination.
Wants Minority. Person on Board
"I think a minority member should sit on
the oral board not only for purposes of promotion but hiring as well," be said. "to the
best of my knowledge there hasn't ever been
one, but it's been suggested previously.
"One that I would recommend would be
Chief J ames Byrd of Cheyenne, who is a
highly respected individual and who would be
completely objective in bis thinking." Byrd
is a Negro.
Caldwell said of p r i m a r y importance,
though, is Negroes' belief that a " completely
independent outside agency" should go over
the present testing procedw·es in fine detail
to weed out any possible areas of bias.
Caldwell, Reynolds and the Rev. Mr. Howard said removal of any testing bias, broad: .
ening assignments and providing a wider
range of training opportunities would be the
most logical ways to solve the problem.
The Rev. Acen P hillips, vice chairman of
the East Denver Ministerial Alliance, wants
quicker action. He suggested " compensatory
promotions" for Negro officers who have
been "discriminated against for 50 years."
The Rev. Mr. P hillips would have the department appoint a Negro division chief or
captain- he didn't mention the lower ranks
of lieutenant or sergeant- and have that man.
given special on-the-job training for a period
before he is given a command.
He said he didn't think this would cause
dissension among the other commanders on
the department because "they know, down
deep, that there has been this discrimination."
Reynolds and the Rev. Mr. Howard said
they couldn't agree.
"While recognizing the validity of what Mr.
P hillips s:;iid, I'm inclined to think that approach would detract from the man's selfrespect as well as his esteem among other
members of the police force," Reynolds said.
" I'm not sure that tearing down the system
is a good idea."
" I would prefer the training route," said
the Rev. Mr . Howard. " Because whoever is
in there ought to be capable and know what
he's doing."
.
Paradoxically, if a strict quota system were
applied in Denver it would be the city's ·
67,750 Spanish-Americans who would have the
most legitimate complaint as far as numbers are concerned.
.
12. 9 Pct. of Population
·
They make up 12.9 per cent of Denver's
estimated 525,000 citizens, and the 50,000 Negroes in Denver constitute about 9.5 per cent .
There are 18 Spanish-American policemen,
2.15 per cent of all men on the force, and
23 Negroes, 2.75 per cent.
But three Spanish-Americans have made
rank. Besides Montoya, 42, they are Lt.
Chr is Herrera, 51, and Sgt. Louis Lopez, 35.
Lopez recently qualified for lieutenant.
Of the 23 Negro officers now on the force,
eight haven't been eligible for promotion because or time-in-grade requirements. Three
of them weren't even on the force when the
last examination for sergeant was given Nov.
28, 1964. The other five didn't have their
required five years in grade as patrolmen.
Five eligible men, including the two with
the most education, the two with the highest
intelJigence ratings and two with 17 years
of service and an automatic 10-point seniority advantage, have never bothered to take
an examination.
That leaves 10 men who have tried for
promotion and didn't make it. Nine of them
took the sergeant's examination one or more
times, and three have passed, but were
too far down the list certified by the Civil
Service Commission to have any" hope of
getting their rank.
Detective Vern Hudley, 54, of the J uvenile
Bureau passed the 1960 examination but was
114th on a list of 134 men certified. Only
26 sergeants were appointed.
Two Negroes passed the 1964 examination.
They are Detective Clarence Nelson, 41, who
wound up 70th on a list of 93 men certified, ,
and Patrolman- Carnell, Green, 39, who placed ,
91st. 1'his time there were only 16 men promoted.
Civil Service records show that no Negro
has ever failed an oral board review.
Even had they been graded on the basis of
the written test alone, l-Iudley, Nelson and
Green couldn't have won their promotions.
Hudley tied with nine other men for 99th
place on bis wr itten exam when only 26 men
were promoted. Gr een tied with five other
men for 62nd place, and Nelson was among

a group of even tied in 78th place when 16
men were promoted.
All three men passed their oral board reie vs with scores in the middle to upper 70s.
Nelson's final place on the list - largely
becaw,e of his seniority points-was eight
men above where he placed on the written
examination .
Hudley's fi nal position on the certified list
vas 15 place below his written test ranking
a nd Green tumbled 29 places.
On the 1960 test which Hudley took, the
written exam coum.ed for 60 per cent of the
total score , the or al review was 25 per cent,
efficiency r ating 5 per cent and seniority
10 per cent.
On the 1964 exam. the oral board rating
was r aised to 29 per cent of total scor e and
efficiency rating shrank to 1 per cent. Veteran ·s preference points. if any, are added
to a man·s score after the other four factors
are computed.
Green and Hudley had no veterans ' points,
and 'elson had five .
Of the six Negro officers who have failed
the sergeant" s examination, three made one
attempt apiece , two took it twice and one
m an tried three times. The 10th officer in
the group who has tried to make rank took
only the police property custodian 's exam,
failing it five years ago.
Contrast Noted
By contrast with the Negroes , all 10 Spanish-surnamed officers who have been e)jgible for promotion have tried to make it.
Herrera , who has a high school education,
failed the sergeant's exam twice before
passing it fou1th down on the list in 1958.
He passed his first lieutenant's examination
14th down and took a second one that moved
him up to sixth place and won his promotion .
Montoya placed 12th on his first sergeant's . examination in 1956 but has since
failed the lie utenant's exam three times. He
has fo ur years of college.
Lopez placed 20th on the 1964 sergeant's
exami.nati.on wi.th the help of five veterans'
points. He came jn later with prooi oi a
se.rvice-<:onnected disability that r esulted in
his getting five more veterans' points and
moving up to sixth place on the list.
Two other Spanish-surnamed officer s have
passed too low on the lists to get their
stripes. They are Alexander Nieto J r. , 38,
and Phil Villalovos, 39.
Neqroes Have More Ed ucati on
Taken as a group the Negro officers have
slightly more education than the SpanishAmericans, but their average intelligence
ratings are nearly eight points lower.
This may reflect nothing more than the
comparative quality of education the men
have received.
Chief Dill pointed out the department has .
been trying to help qualified Negro officers
get better assignments. He said there are
more Negro detectives and technicians,
comparatively, than there are among the
white officers .
There were no Negro detectives at all
before Dill became chief. Detective and
technician are appointive r anks in which a
m an with fi ve years of service r eceives $768
a year more than a patr olman with the
same length of service. Base pay for a sergeant is $9,096 a year , or $576 more than a
detective or technician makes.
'Cred:t to De partment'
"Our Negro policemen, I think, are a
credit to the Police Depa rtment," Dill said.
"They're just as good and just as intelligent as anyone else. And I'd say we have
one of the best civil service systems in the
country. The opportunities ar e here. There
can't be any separate standards when
you're handling a group of people . Either
you qualify or you don't."
Dill said he thought the problem would
wo1k itself out in time, as more Negro officers come on the department and gain
enough seniority to have an edge on their
examinations.
But Negro leaders say that until a ll suspicion of discrimination is r emoved, it's going to be difficult to recruit more Negroes.
Negro policemen themselves seemed more
than a little reluctant to discuss the problem.
"Whatever Dill says is right," was all one
of them would say.
" There hasn't been any discrimination
against me," another said. " I think if a Negro officer has the stuff he can get made
(departmental slang for winning a promotion) just like anybody else."
Another man. a veteran on the force , said
he likes the job he's now in and is afra id
that if he made sergeant he might get a
less choice assignment.
Ve t e ran of Force Speak~
Besides, he said, "when I go home after
a day on the street rm tired. I want to r elax. Maybe cut the lawn. I don·t want to go
sit behind a post and stud y the books for
eight hours.
"I do all right ," he said when asked if he
felt he were ever a victim of discrimination. " Tlmse so-called leaders. I wonder
sometimes . . . "
Councilman Caldwell poin ted out, perhaps
with justification, that a_ Negro policeman
might tell a white reporter a different story
tha n he would tell another Negro.
"If the offi cers on the force think opportunities to advance are· TeaJly, truly open ,
some of the younger men will take advantage of it," Reynolds said. " Those who have
already given up perhaps will not.
" And if they have given up, they probably
wouldn 't make command officers anyway.
To be a topnotch supervisor in anything, a
person has to have the desire ."
So far little has been done about the problem.
Ted Bach, Civil Service Commission president, said the commission is willing to put
qualified Negroes on its oral review boards.
Chief Byrd of Cheyenne is "a little too close
to Denver" and will probably be ruled out
on the chance he might know some of the ·
Denver officers, Bach sa id.

be kind of hooked on the department already."

MINORITY OFFICERS VA LUED HIGHLY
Chicago Racial Out reaksC
CHICA GO-It was a Sunday aiternoon \ate
last July. Two Negro boys were playfully
wrestling on the sidewalk in fro nt of Big
Jim's Liquor and Food Store on Chicago's
South Side.
Suddenly one of them slipped and fell
against the plate glass window. It cracked.
Big J im Nicholaou, a white businessman
in a predominantly Negro neighborhood , remonstrated the boys and - called the police
to report the damage.
Tbat was about all there was to it- almost.

Not Very Popu lar in Are a
Big Jim wasn 't very popular in the neighborhood, and the rumor began to get
around :
He had taken one of the boys' bicycles to
avenge the broken window.
It may have been the rumor that brought
Julius Woods, a 40-year-old transient , to
Big Jim's place the following Tuesday morning.
That's what the neighbo rhood liked to believe, anyway. He had gone to get the bicycle back. N'icholaou said Woods tried to
rob him. Whatever the reason , Woods and
Nicholaou quarreled in the alley behind the
store. Big J im pulled a gun and killed
Woods.
This time the rumor was that Woods was
the father of one of the boys and he was
shot five times in the back as he tried to
rega in possession of his son's bicycle. It
was repeated as fact by an irresponsible
radio station.
Commander William B. Griffin of the
Grand Crossing police district and Lt. Robert A. Wi!Jiams of the Chicago Police Department's Human Relations Section were
in the office of the Chicago Da ily Defender
when the crowds began building up. There
was already talk of burning.
Hurri e d Back to Ne ighborhood
The two men hurried back to the neighborhood. It was in Griffin 's district. Gr iffin
got on the phone immediately to contact the
area's Negro youth gangs, starting with the
SUPT. JAMES B. CONLISK JR. DEPUTY CHIEF· SAM NOLAN Sole fact o r: W ho's best man? "Our citizens don't wa it to find out Blackstone Rangers , worst of the lot. Their leaders promised him the gangs would stay out of it. Griffin knew the promises were good. He had dealt with the gangs before , and they understood each other. Williams , meanwhile, was rounding up more than 50 persons to fan out across the neighborhood and tell it straight: Nicholaou was being charged with murder. The man he shot didn't even know the boys . There was no bicycle. Big Jim's place had been closed on Mayor Dick Daley's orders pending a hearing to revoke his liquor license. C lose Watch Kept Men under Griffi n's command shut down the neighborhood liquor stores and taverns, and kept a close watch on gasoline stations. They spread the true word to shopkeepers and asked them to pass it along. Shopkeepers see a lot of other persons in the course of a day's business. Sgt. Neal Wilson spent a good part of his day on the street, but also managed to make 175 telephone calls countering the rumors. I " The crowds g~t unruly anyway. A hundred Task Force policemen had to be called in . Befo re that Tuesday night was over , 52 persons had been arrested . But there was no burning and no riot. Potentially explosive racial skirmishes aren't uncommon in Chicago, although the city weathered this past summer with none that developed into ful1-fledged riots like the two of the summer before . One of those was touched off by a policeman's shooting a P uerto Rican youth. The other start ed when two officers- one Negro, one white- turned off a fire hyd rant tha t had been opened so some neighborhood kids could cool off in the spray of water. Both Hap pen t o Be Negroes "Unfortunately," says Deputy Chief Sam Nolan of the Chi cago P D's Community Services Division, "our citizens don't wait to fi nd out what the investigation will show. Their minds are made up as soon as the act is done." And it is largely beca use of quick action by men like Griffi n and Williams that more "ontinued on page 6 �_ _I (1f ..IJ ·""ILL I ·· -- L . r; 71,VJJ.!U.Ll WQ /lfJ.. /~I~,,,;: vp-r ~ t / W <,Z.

A MES SAGE F ROM THE MAYOR:
As we enter the last third of the nineteen s ixti e s , we find 'our s elves continually facing
rapid a nd fa r reaching ch a ng e s in the methods and proc e dures of law enforcement.
T o mee t th e d ema nds of our challenging time s, our police departm e nt mu s t be highl y
trained in ma ny s p e cializ e d fields.
Accordin gl y we are carrying on progra ms of exploration as we seek n e w and improved
tech niq ues i n o ur e nd eavor to attain and mainta in th e highest professional standards in l a w enforcement.
Le t me invite your a ttention to s ome s ignificant forward steps taken during 1966:
For exa mpl e, we a re now using a n electronic computer to record and proc e s s traffic tick e ts .
We plan to exten d this fa st a nd a ccurate method to h a ndle oth e r police re cord s .
Again, the Atla nta Me trop o l , the l aw e nforce ment organiz a tion which no w co ve rs our fiv e
county metro a rea, is c o n_duc ti ng a searching study of crim e in our me tro a re a . Th e fe de ral gove rnme nt
is considering making a gra nt to assis t u s in this s tudy .
We also are studying th e feas ibi li ty of provi ding police officers with e quipm e nt th a t will
enable them to maintain cons ta nt c o mmunic a ti on. As th e s itu a tion no w s ta nd s, s c i entis ts ca n be
in constant touch with satellites million s of mile s di s ta nt but we lo s e touch with a polic e officer when
he goes a few yards away fro m h is c a r r a dio wi thin our city limits.
To make our c ommun i cations mo re e fficient , a thre e way ra dio fre quency s y s tem will be
installed this year. This will provide a sep a rate wave l e ngth for th e north s ide, the s outh s ide and
the detective division. It will take care of our n eeds for ma ny ye a rs to come .
Again, colleges here are carryin g o n a research prog ra m to d e termine if i t is a d visabl e to
conduct an accredited course in police t rai ni ng for l aw e n fo rce me nt offi c e rs.
To sum up, Atlanta's police departmen t is ev er mindful tha t we must n ever let up i n our
war on crime and it is always exerting its u tmost e ffo rts to make Atl a nta the mo s t c rime fr e e ci ty in
our land.

Ge ntl emen:
I submit here with the 87th Annual Report of the Atlanta Police Department for the year 1966.
C rime reports in the first part of the year genera lly showed a marked decrease . Rape, auto theft
a nd larceny unde r $50 .00 , continued to show a decre ase for the entire year. But, during the last part of the year,
whe n th e police were pre occupied with a firemen' s strike a nd racial disturbances , with street fighting, crime
in all o the r c a tegories, i ncluding tra ffic fata lities and traffi c a ccidents , were on th e increa se.
1966 was the first full year of major leagu.e baseball and major league football in the City of
Atlanta. T h e tra ffic control program at the stadium was excelle nt, allowing between 50,000 and 60,000
visito rs , on ma ny occasion s, to leave th e sta dium in a fe w minutes , without undue delay .
T h e Detective Divi s ion, esp e cia lly the Lott er y Squa d, was v e ry much on the ale rt for gambling of
all ki nds , and many gambli ng ·a rre s t s we re ma de - but, nothing was dis covere d to indica te th a t ga mbling wa s on
the in cr ease , o r that out-of-town ga mblers were a ttempting to operate in the City of Atlanta.
The Internal Se curity Squa d wa s reorganized during th e year, and this dep a rtment is enjoying the
tightest internal se c urity of any poli ce depa rtm e nt in th e n a tion .
The Atl a nta Police Departm ent h as a very fin e li aison with all fe d eral a g encie s, e spe cially the
Offi ce of Law Enforcement Assi s ta n ce , a nd a dditiona l ass istance a nd equipment a re e xp e cted to be added
during the coming y e a r.
The morale, training and discipline in the de p a rtme nt continues on th e upward tre nd , and we wi s h to
aga in e xpre ss our de ep app re ciation to Mayor I van Alle n , Jr. , th e Atla nta Crime C ommiss ion , a nd th e Boa rd of
Alde rme n for the very fin e h e lp and assis ta n ce t he d epartm e nt h as recei ved in the y ear 1966.

ATLANTA GROWS
The population of Atlanta is growing by leaps and
bounds. This growth is accompanied by a similiar growth
in traffic.
The Atlanta Region Metropolitan Planning Commission
predicts by 1983, there will be an estimated four million
six hundred thousand vehicular trips made each day on
the streets and highways of Metropolitan Atlanta.
HEAVY TRAFFIC
These predictions are based on statistics and information
compiled by the Commission and the Georgia State Highway Department.

BURGLARS SELECT VICTIMS
The contents of a home determines where some burglars strike, nowadays.
A unique system is used in obtaining a list of major appliances he can steal from each home.
Information is gathered for the burglar by women who call residences stating she is making a
survey and gives the name of a prominent organization with the assurance that she is not conducting a sales gimmick and requests cooperation by answering a few questions needed by her
research program.
The caller then reads a list of questions such as:
Number in family
Number employed outside the home
Televisions -- size, model, color or black and white
Sewing machine -- make, manual or electric
Vacuum cleaner -- make and type
Radios -- make and size
Stereo, if portable
Lawn mowers, make, size, riding or self propelled
Air conditioning units -- make, tonnage of portable units
The caller thanks the housewife for being very helpful. The burglar now has a list of what each
home contains. He becomes very selective in his profession.
"Ye s, we have a c olor te levis ion."

�K-9 SQUAD
Outrunning an escaping burglar who has a head start can be very difficult for a police officer, but
a simple matter for a K-9 dog, thereby creating a need for a K-9 Squad.
Our K-9 Squad consists of one lieutenant and twelve officers, each with a trained dog. When off
duty, the dog resides at the hoine of the officer.
Befo.re an officer is assigned to the K-9 Squad, his neighborhood is checked for any adverse
attitude directed towar.ds a dog living in the vicinity, also, the pen in which the dog is kept must
be sanitary and well constructed so as to prevent the dog from escaping.
A prospective K-9 dog must have above average intelligence and of even temperment, not over
two years of age or under one year of age, should weigh 80 lbs., or more, be in good health, male
sex and German Shepherd breed.
In selecting a dog for the K-9 Corp, approximately six out of every ten dogs fail to pass tests
required by the trainer and are eliminated as prospects for our K-9 Corp.
After a dog is selected, he is put through training periods by a professional dog trainer. He is
taught to be aggressive and not afraid of gun fire or noise. The dog, during its course of training, is taught to grab the arm in which a perpetrator holds a weapon, thereby preventing use of such
weapon. The dog is taught to hold the subject without inflicting additional injury pending the
the arrival of the officer.
The officer that the new dog will be assigned to work with also attends training school. After
graduation, they are designated for street duty. Training wi II continue under the supervision of
our professional trainer. Periodically he conducts re-training programs in which the dog is given
various tests which indicate its merits and capabilities.
The K-9 Squad has two trucks designed to hold the dogs. The trucks are used in covering
large areas and transporting the dog from one section to another when necessary.
K-9 dogs are very valuable when used for searching large buildings, warehouses and unlighted
areas for hidden criminals.

�IDENTIFICATION BUREAU
A new system was started on a trial basis in the photography section this year.
Color slides are made of all persons arrested for robbery and sex crimes. Their image is projected on a screen in exact life size, in natural color and is reviewed by victims and witnesses
for identification purposes.
The slides are classified and filed according to age, race, sex and height of arrested person.
The system is cross indexed with the identification number. During 1967 over 1,700 color slides
were made.
This system is a great improvement over the four inch by five inch black and white mug shots and
produced such favorable results that our present plans are to expand it until all major crimes are
eventually included in this color slide system.

�CRIME PREVENTION
ii
I,
A new concept in cnme prevention was inaugurated by
this department during 1967. We are striving to change
the thinking and behavior of potential criminals by creating a desire for them to become worthwhile citizens with
a correct sense of values which include a respect for
City, State and Federal laws and an obedience to home
regulation.
WE SUPPORT LAW ENFORCEMEN T
To deter a person from becoming a criminal and taking the
first wrong step, this training must start with youth. Some
sections of the city already contain recreational organizations and agencies capable of absorbing the youth
population into various constructive activities.
SKATE-O-RAMA
2,500 participat ed

�CRIME PREVENTION
II
,
In other areas of the city, we find a need for youth guidance organiz a tions. Realizing this need, the department
has broadened the structure of crime pre vention by sponsoring several aven ue s of activity for our young people.
We encourage and assist groups such as Junior Deputy
and Junior Crime Prevention Clubs, since these groups
participate in crime prevention by influencing other people to live clean lives.
JUNIOR CRIME FIGHTERS
Our officers co-operate in providing sight-se e ing tours
for the youngsters and assist the Jay cees in providing
entertainment during half-time periods at ne ighborhood
non-professional football games.
Our officers speak to many adult groups suc h as PTA's,
ci vic organizations and schools on vanous crime prevention subjects.

Often times, people are trapped inside wrecked vehicles. Danger of fire is ev er present, thus creating the need for emergency rescue vehicles with great maneuverbility and power. Io answer of chis need , two small but powerful vehicles equipped with four-wheel driv e capable of moving heavy broken down trucks from the traffic arteries were added to the mobile units this year. They are manned by officers trained in resuscitation , first aid and other phases of rescue work. Due to their great maneuverbility, these small vehicles can reach the scene of an emergency much faster than the large heavy type rescue vehicles. These vehicles are in addition to the four trucks that patrol our expressway syste m rendering assistance to stranded motorists . When not involved in rescue operations, the vehicles patrol the e x pre s sways helping ocher police units in the regulation and control of vehicular traffic. Personnel assigned to these vehicles are experts in operating the following equipment c a rried in the vehicles.

�LARCENY OF CREDIT CARDS
Over 140,000,000 credit cards were in circulation in 1966. This number greatly increased during
1967 .
Illegal and unauthorized use of credit cards cost American citizens between twenty-five and
thirty million dollars per year and from all indications, this amount will continue to increase.
Merely by presenting a credit card, cash and most any type of service or commodity is obtainable
on demand by the holder of credit cards.
Various methods a re used to obtain credit cards, Some are stolen by pocket pickers , some by
resident burglars and some from hotel and motel guests. They are also counterfeited.
Airlines, department stores and service stations are targets in the credit card racket. Tremendous bills are run up very fast at motels and hotels especially in large cities . before the
owner has any knowledge that. his credit card has been stolen.
Service stations are frequent victims in this sophisticated form of larceny . Not only is the
credit card used for purchasing motor fuel, it is used for purchasing tires a nd other items offered
for sale in the station . In one case, a victim received a bill for twenty high priced automobile
tires that had been purchased two at a time in different stations between Atlanta and C a lifornia ,
using a stolen credit card.
In a distant city, a young boy with a stolen credit card ran up bills for over ten thousand dollars
having parties and purchasing gifts for girls he met, before being apprehended.

�GULLIBLE CITIZENS SWINDLED
Widows and poor citizens are swindled by fast talking con-men who represent themselves as
being reputable building contractors.
These contractors seek their victims by door-to-door contact and telephone calls.
The victim is promised first class workmanship below the market cost, for additional rooms ,
carports, driveways, patios and other type of remodeling to their home.
In some instances, the victim signs a second mortgage unbeknowing. Tliis is done by the swindler at the time of the signing of the contract. He shuffles a mortgage paper in with the contract
papers and the victim innocently signs all papers.
In other cases , the perpetrator is given 50% of the total amount of the contract to purchase building material. The balance to be paid upon completion of the job . The perpetrator spends about
a half day tearing out or doing preparatory work, leaves the job, neve_r to be heard of again.
In mos t cas es , the victims are widows and uneducated people who are not in the position to
sta nd such losses .
In cases where second mortgages are made, the victim is laboring under the illusion that she is
to pay a reasonable amount of money for the job. She is shocked when she receives a past due
noti ce that she has failed to pay the first payment due on her second mortgage, which in most
cases 1s more tha n she ordinarily would have paid had she been dealing with a reputable contra ctor .

�WORTHWHILE ENDEAVORS
Many of our police officers are engaged in var10us rypes of commendable activity during their
off-duty hours.
This rype activity varies from boy scout leadership to conducting religious services for our
silent citizens.
Due to the limited space m this publication, we are illustrating only two of these endeavors.
While a ssi gned to the Morning Watch (12PM-8AM) Officer
C. L. Huddleston observed groups of deaf people gathering for fo od and fellowship in a downtown restaurant.
He obs erved them very closely and became interested in
them.
Years lat er, he transferred from the mission committee to
the silent department in his church. Not knowing the
A B C' s in the si gn language, he studied the sign language i n orde r to take part in teaching the word of God
to our d eaf c itizens .
Officer Huddles ton now teaches a class of 45 deaf people
each Sunday.

�ALCOHOLISM
A ruling by the Superior Court caused a change in drunkenness cases booked after July 19, 1%7.
This ruling applies only to chronic alcoholic cases. In the new ruling, the order stated that
"excusal of one afflicted with chronic alcoholism from criminal prosecution is confined exclusively to those acts on his part which are compulsive as symptomatic of the disease and with
respect to other behavior -- not characteristic of confirmed chronic alcoholism - he should be
judged as any person not so afflicted."
The judge did not exclude those drinkers whose alcoholic binges cause great harm to others and
to the peace in general. It did not excuse those who get drunk and disturb the peace at will.
It did Iiot excuse arrest of those drunk on the streets or in public places who are not classed as
chronic alcoholics. The menace to the community of such persons will still be acknowledged.
The Fulton County case is the first time in Georgia alcoholism has been judged to be a disease
a nd not a cri me.
Chronic alcoholics are not exempted from criminal guilt in cases involving criminality. The
ruling reduced the effectiveness to only cases of drunkenness, loitering, and other directly rel ated to the state of intoxication.

�ATTEMPT SUICIDE
Attempt suicides show a drastic increase in recent years.
In 1963 one hundred and forty-seven persons attempted to take their own lives. 1n 1967 two hundred
persons attempted to take their lives.
The records indicate that people who survive this searing emotional experience constitute a pool from
which completed suicides are later drawn. Below is the age, sex and race breakdown on attempt suicides
for 1967.
