REPORT.
Headquarters of the Police Department,
Office of the Police Commissioner, 154 Berkeley Street,
Boston, December 1, 1926.
To His Excellency Alvan T. Fuller, Governor.
Your Excellency : — As Police Commissioner for the city
of Boston I have the honor to present, in compliance with the
provisions of chapter 291 of the Acts of the year 1906, a report
of the Police Department for the year ending November 30,
1926.
Liquor Traffic and Narcotics.
Enforcement of the prohibitory laws because of the many
important legal questions being brought to the attention of
the highest federal and state tribunals, both affecting the con-
struction to be given to various parts of these prohibitory^ acts
and the proper method of enforcement by the state and federal
authorities, still commands public attention. Increasing dif-
ference of opinion of the federal courts as to the construction
of certain parts of the Volstead Act and the rigidity of pro-
cedure laid upon the enforcing authorities by the state courts,
together with the undue publicity given to new ways and
means adopted by the violators of the liquor laws to carry on
liquor traffic, naturally focuses public attention upon the
liquor situation.
Enforcement of the liquor law is still a paramount problem
for both federal and state authorities. After the proper
methods of enforcement procedure have been settled by the
courts, the ensuing problem is the detection and conviction of
liquor violators with the infliction of proper punishment for
the commission of this type of crime. The punishment meted
out to liquor violators should act as a real deterrent. Distinct
progress in decreasing liquor traffic in this city cannot be gain-
6 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
said. The number of arrests for drunkenness may serve as a
barometer for those opposed to the principle of the prohibitory-
laws, but the accurate method to determine whether the law
is being enforced is by reference to credible and substantial
reports of enforcement agents to superiors as to the quantity
and quality of intoxicating liquor to be purchased illegally.
The proper way, therefore, to ascertain whether the liquor
laws are being enforced is to ascertain whether this contraband
article can easily be obtained. The supply of potable alcohol
has been greatly diminished in this city and the price of gen-
uine alcohol is extremely high. The number of places where
this product may be obtained in large quantities has been
materially reduced. Distillation of the various toxic concoc-
tions from commercial or mercantile alcohol into pseudo or
quasi-vendible products advertised as genuine products seems
to be the last resort of those plying the contraband liquor
trade.
The illegal liquor distilling industry, because its functioning
is easily detected, cannot be carried on in crowded cities and
is now suburban in character. Death seems not to be a ready
deterrent to an irrational desire for intoxicating liquors and,
strangely enough, many persons by buying and consuming
distilled products wrapped in masquerading labels and covers,
are innocently courting this grim figure.
To the praise of this department, every possible device and
scheme to import and distribute intoxicating liquors is known
or can be easily detected, but the difficulty with the liquor
situation is not so much in stopping liquor flowing into the
city from legitimate sources of manufacture or supply, but to
eliminate that despicable class which has no hesitancy in
knowingly selling a rank type of poison.
If the activities of violators who persist in a deliberate, cal-
culating manner to evade the liquor laws are not properly
checked upon conviction with jail or prison sentences, the
police in their prosecution of liquor violators are only making
gestures. As an indication of the activities of this department
in these prosecutions, 38,882 persons were arrested for drunk-
enness in this city, 37,376 males and 1,506 females, from De-
cember 1, 1925, to November 30, 1926, and during the same
period, 4,609 liquor searches on warrants were made.
Owners of property, more solicitous for income from real
estate than for respectable tenants, are actual participants in
1927.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT— No. 49. 7
sordid conditions created by tenants violating liquor laws.
Responsibility for such conditions rests squarely upon their
shoulders as taxpayers of this city. If indifference and cu-
pidity control the action of property owners, it would seem
strange if, in time, the same atmosphere did not permeate the
ranks of the Police Department.
In certain sections of this city the police are cognizant that
liquor is being sold illegally and secretly. Persons engaged in
this contraband business are naturally watching the police so
that their activities may not be disturbed. By stratagem the
police often either obtain a sale or seize intoxicating liquor in
a building. Parties occupying the premises are brought into
court and fined, with a warning that conviction of the same
offense (not conviction of another offense against the liquor
laws) may result in imprisonment. Under such a hazard,
liquor traffickers aj-e careful that when the next raid is made,
some other lessee or occupant of the building is apprehended.
The fact that the substitute lessee or occupant is an agent of
the former lessee or occupant is generally known to the owner
of the building and, despite a similar suspicion by the courts,
yet, because of the lack of necessary legal proof, such agent
being treated as a principal and as a first offender escapes the
real punishment due him.
Owners of real estate, with their minds on overhead charges,
thus seem to be willing to accept as new tenants, well-known
liquor traffickers. Leases under the law may be voided where
lessees or occupants engage in unlawful business upon the
premises. Where landlords refuse to take notice, even after
police advice concerning the nature of the business carried on
by their tenants, and tenant after tenant of the same building
is convicted of some one or other of the various infringements
of the liquor laws, it would seem logical that the police should
not be compelled to resort to the archaic method of securing
an interminable number of search warrants and find itself
moving around in a circle, accomplishing nothing, to the
amusement of this type of lawbreakers, but should have the
same authority to eradicate from suspected buildings "rum"
joints by methods similar to those now authorized by statute
in eliminating houses of prostitution. I am again proposing
legislation to this effect whereby buildings may be declared
by the courts to be nuisances and enjoined as such. Equity
proceedings of this nature would produce as effective results
8 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
as the application of the so-called "padlock law" by the
federal equity courts.
The problem of the suppression of the use of narcotic drugs
is not local but international in scope. With federal and
state laws enacted to regulate the handling, manufacture,
transportation, storing, prescribing and use of narcotics, the
police problem in relation to narcotic drugs is reduced to that
of prevention of smuggling of narcotics and the arrest of both
illegal distributors and addicts.
The principal narcotics used by addicts are opium, mor-
phine, heroin and cocaine. The arrest of the drug addict in
many cases is both humanitarian and economic, inasmuch as,
upon reliable information, cocaine addicts being subject to vio-
lent hallucinations approaching a state of insanity are dan-
gerous, and often adopt violent methods both in the commis-
sion of crime or when about to be placed under arrest.
Detection and apprehension of those engaged in narcotic
drug distribution or consumption require extreme patience
and ingenuity, inasmuch as narcotic peddlers or users, knowing
that they are under the surveillance of the police, attempt to
conceal their movements and methods. The police are handi-
capped by the fact also that many drug distributors are not
drug addicts. Distribution of narcotic drugs in this city has
been reduced to a favorable minimum, obtained because of the
intelligent and conscientious work of the police in general and
those especially assigned to narcotic drug work.
Firearms.
The use and display of firearms having become an impor-
tant factor in the commission of serious crimes and having de-
veloped into a typically American practice, constant watch
and careful supervision of the various sources of the sale and
distribution of dangerous weapons is imperative. Possession
and use of firearms, guns and other dangerous implements in
many instances being necessary, imperative and lawful, and
inasmuch as it is axiomatic that "every man's home is his
castle," it is obvious that the proper means of safeguarding the
homes of citizens should always be available. On the other
hand, however, indiscriminate permission and promiscuous
license to carry on the person or in vehicles dangerous weapons
should be carefully avoided because of the apparent possi-
bility of danger of great abuses arising therefrom. The
1927.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT— No. 49. 9
ability to obtain easily firearms and dangerous weapons by
certain classes has resulted in the practice by undesirables of
using dangerous weapons either to protect or pursue illegal
businesses from rum-running to hold-ups. Pursuit of sport
to encourage the use of firearms, pistols and other similar
weapons on one hand is laudable and should be encouraged,
but the right of citizens to safety and security should not be
abrogated, diminished or endangered in order that a minority
may be amused. If the rights and privileges of gun clubs and
other sporting organizations are restricted through a general
tightening of the laws relating to the possession or purchase of
fu-earms, it may be unfortunate for the devotees of this par-
ticular pastime, but the rights of individuals must always be
suspended or limited for the rights and safety of the majority.
Promiscuous and indiscriminate sale of firearms, whether at
wholesale or retail, should be strictly regulated. The legis-
lature of Massachusetts last year, by constructive and effec-
tive legislation, aided governmental agencies endeavoring to
limit and control the distribution of dangerous weapons, and
remedial legislation enacted relative to the sale and purchase
of firearms affords notable check to the police upon the in-
discriminate sale of such merchandise.
Federal legislation is required, however, in the matter of
firearms in transit by mail in interstate commerce and the im-
portation of firearms from foreign countries. Naturally, con-
siderable opposition to federal legislation upon this subject
has developed. At the present time, several bills relative to
firearms in interstate trade are in Congress in various stages of
progress. Last year a conference was held in New York City
at which police officials of the various eastern states gathered
for the purpose of emphasizing and impressing upon Congress
the necessity of immediate legislation upon the subject of the
forbiddance of transit of firearms by mail and the importance
of such legislation has been emphasized in many of the lead-
ing newspapers and periodicals of this country.
Several reputable mail-order houses, realizing the inevitable
consequences of such unlimited and unchecked chstribution
of firearms by mail, have wisely discontinued the mails as a
medium for the delivery of such articles. Unfortunately,
other concerns engaged in selling firearms generally of foreign
make, almost unexceptionally inferior in grade and cheap in
price, have not the same perspective or viewpoint on this
10 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
subject, with the result that firearms may be obtained through
the mail by irresponsible and often abnormal persons from
such dealers with places of manufacture or business outside
this Commonwealth. The eastern states have taken the ini-
tiative in this matter and are endeavoring, in the absence of
federal legislation, to promote state legislation along these
lines by campaigns of education in states which have not taken
steps in legislative progress upon this subject. When im-
pediments are placed in the way of a purchaser who, because
of criminality, abnormality or juvenility is unfit to carry a
firearm, serious crimes may be in many cases averted. In my
opinion, legislation should be passed to correct a serious de-
fect in the present law which allows ammunition to be sold to
minors over the age of fifteen years. Under the present law
of this state, a minor cannot obtain a permit to carry a firearm
except an employee of a bank or a public utility corporation.
The privilege accorded to this class of minors is granted be-
cause of the control which this stated type of employer natu-
rally exercises over the person selected to be licensed to carry
firearms, and because the licensee, although a minor, is a per-
son who has been considered by responsible authorities to be
a person fit to carry deadly weapons. I believe the law should
be further changed so that no minor should be allowed to buy
ammunition for firearms unless he also has a license to carry
a firearm.
The solution of many desperate crimes by the police, while
ordinarily difficult, is in many cases made more laborious and
mystifying by the fact that the trail of the perpetrator, often
wounded or injured in the commission of the crime, is fre-
quently covered by medical assistance to the criminal ren-
dered by physicians who either through indifference or design
fail to notify the police of such aid. This statement is not an
indictment of the medical profession, but inasmuch as every
profession, trade or business has members not actuated by
proper ethical motives, it is the unfortunate experience of the
police to find that the medical profession is not free from shady
practitioners. Legislation requiring physicians or persons
controlling sanatoriums to report to the local police when aid
has been rendered for wounds or burns caused by guns or
firearms, in my opinion would aid the police in more rapidly
detecting criminals. The legislature of New York last year
passed similar legislation, and I believe that the reputable
1927.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT— No. 49. 11
medical practitioners or medical societies of this Common-
wealth will not oppose legislation of this type, while the pas-
sage of such legislation will coercively control members of the
medical profession whose type of practice is more or less under
police surveillance.
In order to impress more deeply upon the understanding of
those individuals who perpetrate crime, and to give the citi-
zens of this state the satisfaction of knowing that their in-
terests are paramount to those of criminals, I believe in the
passage in this state of legislation similar to that which was
passed in New York relative to the graduated scale of punish-
ment of persons arrested in the commission of a felony while
armed with a pistol or other dangerous weapon. According
to reputable authorities, the passage of this legislation in New
York demonstrated in a very short time that terror had been
stricken into the hearts of criminals whose chief purpose was
persistence in the practice of terrorizing peaceful citizens of
the community.
Traffic.
An efficient police department primarily prevents crime or,
after crime has been committed, detects and apprehends the
criminal offenders. Efficient management of private business
corporations provides for future growth. Police departments
necessarily must progress and coordinate with advancements
in business. A traffic problem did not exist in Boston twenty
years ago.' Today, proper and efficient control of vehicular
and pedestrian traffic, not only because of advancement in
business activities and the necessity of safeguarding the pub-
lic, but because of the increasing number of police officers
needed for traffic work, is an outstanding problem with which
all municipal authorities are confronted.
The importance or magnitude of a traffic problem is rarely
realized by the general public. Direction of traffic either by
manual effort, beacons, lights, or synchronizing systems, pre-
sents one aspect of this problem. On the other hand, rational
enforcement of the various traffic laws, rules or regulations
cannot be accomplished by mechanical devices but requires
personal service. Pertinent to the traffic problem, which in
the last analysis means the orderly flow of both vehicular and
pedestrian traffic, the necessity of eliminating illegal and un-
necessary parking of vehicles is apparent. Unrestrained and
12 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
uncontrolled parking of vehicles not only detrimentally affects
the growth and development of business, but also seriously in-
terferes with the operation of various governmental agencies
engaged in the protection or safeguarding of both private and
municipal property. Vehicular parking for an unlimited time
on a thoroughfare which should be devoted to the passage of
commercial vehicles is about as logical as dumping a cartload
of paving blocks upon the same spot and forgetting to remove
it.
Strict enforcement of traffic laws cannot be neglected inas-
much as orderly control of traffic spells prevention of acci-
dents, the latter causing traffic tangles and consequent delays,
and also unnecessarily requiring the service of police officers
who are thus temporarily diverted from more important police
duties.
During the past year, 2,235 vehicles were licensed as hack-
ney carriages with 4,031 licensed drivers. As most of these
vehicles are operated where traffic is densest, their control and
supervision, not taking into consideration the additional work
in the investigation of applications for licenses of hackney
carriage drivers and the careful allocation and licensing of the
various special stands for hackney vehicles, requires the con-
stant supervision of a separate unit.
■ Automobiles temporarily appropriated for selfish reasons
and subsequently abandoned, often in a damaged condition,
in places obstructing traffic, place an additional burden upon
the police. Records of this department show during the past
year that approximately 3,700 automobiles were found aban-
doned in the streets of this city by the police.
Increase in school population and school buildings neces-
sarily requires more police officers to protect school children at
crossings. This obligation, with similar protection to the
aged and infirm, is justly demanded from the police by the
tax payers of this city. Boston, unlike some other cities, has
not the advantage of laws against *'jay walking." With the
continual increase in the number of automobiles, pedestrian
control by the police has become more arduous inasmuch as
density of vehicular traffic produces greater density of pedes-
trian traffic as the more populous sections of this city are built
around or in the vicinity of main arteries of travel.
Mechanical control of traffic is replacing to a great extent
manual traffic direction. Education of the public to obedi-
1927.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT— No. 49. 13
ence to the operation of mechanical traffic signals, as expected,
has been successful. In the working out of the traffic prob-
lem, knowledge of the various lighting systems in other cities
of this country is valuable. The installation in this city of a
system of synchronized lights directed under the progressive
system, as an economic measure, cannot be delayed. The cost
of installing a system of electrical traffic control under the
present law requiring that the wires operating such a system
shall be laid underground, would seem to be prohibitive. A
possible solution of this problem could be effected if a system
of electric traffic control were linked to the present plant of a
public utility corporation operating with fixed conduits for
wires.
During the past year twenty-four spot lights were installed,
making a total of one hundred and twenty-three spot lights
set up by this department for the protection of traffic officers.
Experimental work also relative to the adoption of flood lights
to eliminate the glare of the present spot lights has been carried
on.
The two traffic divisions of this department were increased
by the addition of eighty men from the additional 300 added
to the department during the past year. At the present time,
47 men are assigned to enforcing the parking laws and other
officers will be placed in the traffic divisions in the near future.
The present personnel of these two divisions is 2 captains, 2
lieutenants, 12 sergeants and 254 patrolmen. Continuous
traffic service has been inaugurated.
I desire again to publicly thank Gifford LeClear, Esq.,
chairman of Committee on Street Traffic and Municipal and
Metropolitan Affairs of the Boston Chamber of Commerce,
and Ellerton J. Brehaut, Esq., assistant secretary of the Bos-
ton Chamber of Commerce, for the valuable advice given me
in the study of the traffic problems of this city and for their
efficient service in the installation of beacons and lighting
systems for the expedition of pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
Sale by the Police of Unclaimed or Abandoned
Property.
Yearly increase in the number of automobiles registered in
this state, a large percentage of which has been fairly esti-
mated to enter Boston at some period of the license year, not
only increases police work because of the necessity of directing
14 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
the same, but also increases the possibihty of cars either being
stolen deliberately for resale or misappropriated for temporary
use and enjoyment. The number of cars abandoned on the
streets of this city is increasing yearly. Many of these cars,
because reported to the police as lost or stolen, can be promptly
and readily restored to owners, but inasmuch as owners of
cars so taken sometimes do not live in this city, temporary
storage must be arranged by the police until the owner arrives
after receiving notice to repossess.
Automobiles necessarily cannot be left out-of-doors in in-
clement weather and therefore many cars found abandoned
must be stored in public garages. It is found that many
abandoned cars are damaged in the illegal operation of the
same, and the owners, incensed justifiably, sometimes refuse
for this reason to repossess the cars from the garage in which
they are stored in good faith by the police. Storage space
must be paid for and the city of Boston should not be obliged
to pay for the storage of cars when the owner is known and
has been notified where his property may be located. De-
mands by the police to owners to repossess their property
often have been met with refusal and as the law now stands,
the owner of a stolen or abandoned car, placed in a garage by
the pohce, may enjoy free storage for an entire winter season
by refusing to repossess the same, with the city obligated for
the payment of the storage.
The owner of an automobile which has been stolen or used
unlawfully and found abandoned by the police, who refuses
to repossess his property after receiving written notice of its
location by the pohce, should, in all fairness, after at least six
months from the time of receiving notice, lose the right to re-
possess the same, and the police department should have the
authority and right to sell these cars in order to release the
lien of the garage owner for the fair charge for storage thereon.
At the present time there is no space available in this de-
partment for the storage of a large number of cars and the
increasing number of abandoned and lost cars necessarily,
therefore, must be stored in private garages or warehouses.
Celerity in Dispatching Police Information.
Rapidity of interchange of important police information be-
tween police departments of this state is essential. Inasmuch
as the means of rapid exchange is available either by telephone,
1927.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT— No. 49. 15
telegraph or special communicating systems, a system oper-
ated from a central distributing station either at the State
House or at Police Headquarters, Boston, should be installed.
A similar recommendation was made by me in my last three
annual reports.
Important communications can be sent to the various units
of this department in an exceptionally short time, but con-
fining the rapid diffusion of police news to the confines of this
city, in view of the present use of automobiles by criminals in
the commission of crimes, is futile. Crime is seldom discov-
ered upon its execution and delay in the disclosure of com-
mission of serious crime permits many criminals using auto-
mobiles to be removed far from the scene of the crime soon
after commission.
A central communicating system with antenna stretching
to the boundaries of this state and with branches to the im-
portant cities and towns, should replace the present clumsy
and cumbersome method of relaying important criminal in-
formation to adjacent or distant police departments. Police
methods and systems should progress steadily and methods
employed in the apprehension of criminals should be in ad-
vance of those used by criminals today in committing crime.
Assaults on Police Officers.
The underlying principle of stable government is respect by
its citizens for constituted law and authority. While indi-
vidual freedom with its accompanying prerogatives of free
speech and independence of action, guaranteed by the Consti-
tution, must be carefully guarded in order that democratic
government may exist, yet unlimited and unbridled license for
personal activities produces disorder and chaos.
In Great Britain the police on duty without firearms rep-
resent the Sovereign and malicious attacks upon police officers
carry rapid and severe punishment. In this country, unfor-
tunately, respect for authority does not always obtain. Delay
of trial and sympathy for the criminal with outspoken disre-
spect, antipathy and contempt for the police often produce
judicial travesties.
The police are human and therefore err, but without the
protecting screen of a police department, anarchy ensues.
Unlimited excoriation and abuse of police departments by in-
telligent persons because of weaknesses or abuses of individual
16 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
members tend to break down the fabric of the system and
offer to the criminal and undesirable, favorable manna for
their mental nourishment.
Our Honor Roll for the year consists of one officer mur-
dered in cold blood by youthful desperadoes, and three police
officers murderously assaulted by criminals armed with fire-
arms.
As a tribute to the memory of members of this Department
who heroically died in the performance of their duties, an-
nually, on Memorial Day, bronze markers appropriately in-
scribed have been placed upon their graves. These markers
stand as mute evidence of the bravery and valor of men un-
necessarily sacrificed that the lives and property of the citi-
zens of Boston might be protected.
Plant.
During the past year steam heating systems were installed
in the station houses of Divisions 14 and 17, and the heating
apparatus of all other station houses throughly overhauled,
cleaned and made ready for service.
Work in cleaning and painting was done in Stations 12 and
7 and a new system of lighting was installed in the latter
building.
The usual repairs were made on the harbor boats Guardian,
E. U. Curtis, and Argus. The steamer Watchman, thoroughly
rebuilt, is now in condition for a twenty-four-hour day ser-
vice for a number of years.
Two new motor prison vans and a patrol wagon to serve as
replacements were purchased and placed in commission.
Eight additional police ambulances were requested by me
from the Mayor, through the Board of Municipal Emergencies.
I have made provision in the Department estimates for 1927
for these additional ambulances and I hope, if they are allowed,
to put them into commission during the coming year.
A trafiic booth with a synchronized system of lights was in-
stalled at the junction of Massachusetts Avenue and Common-
wealth Avenue.
The present antiquated and unsanitary station houses of
Divisions 3, 4 and 5 should be replaced by modern structures.
The Mayor has been requested by me to allow Division 14
and Division 11, respectively, to occupy the premises now
used for court purposes in the Brighton and Dorchester dis-
1927.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT— No. 49. 17
tricts after these courts are installed in their new buildings in
said districts. This additional space is urgently needed inas-
much as the number of officers assigned to these two divisions
has been materially increased.
I have also discussed with the Mayor the necessity of a large
central garage where both the cars of this Department and
cars found abandoned by the police may be stored and thus
eliminate the unnecessary large expenditure for storage in
private and public garages and storehouses.
The new police headquarters building situated at Berkeley
and Stuart streets was dedicated on November 22, 1926.
This building is seven stories in height above the street with
basement and sub-basement. The exterior is treated in
Italian Renaissance style with limestone on the Berkeley and
Stuart street fagades and a light-colored brick on Stanhope
Street and the Court. The interior with regard to rooms,
corridors, and stair towers is of modern office building design
with sanitary floors and fireproof construction throughout.
The building is heated by return tubular boilers supplied by
oil for fuel. The main facade is on Berkeley Street set back
from the lot line about twenty feet. The Stuart Street fagade
is on the property line at the sidewalk and adjoins the present
building of the Edison Electric Illuminating Company. The
cornerstone of the building was laid August 25, 1925, with
appropriate ceremonies.
Very respectfully,

Police Commissioner for the City of Boston.

Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
The "identification room" now contains 67,085 photographs,
55,706 of which are photographs with BertiUon measurements,
POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
a system used by the Department since November 30, 1898.
In accordance with the Revised Laws, chapter 225, section 18,
and with the General Laws, chapter 127, sections 27 to 29,
both inclusive, we are allowed photographs with Bertillon
measurements taken of the convicts in the State Prison and
Reformatory, a number of which have been added to our
Bertillon cabinets. This, together with the adoption of the
system by the Department in 1898, is and will continue to be
of great assistance in the identification of criminals. A large
number of important identifications have thus been made
during the year for this and other police departments, through
which the sentences in many instances have been materially
increased. The records of 943 criminals have been added to
the records of this Bureau, which now contains a total of
47,051. The number of cases reported at this office which
have been investigated during the year is 40,111. There are
43,256 cases reported on the assignment books kept for this
purpose, and reports made on these cases are filed away for
future reference. The system of indexing adopted by this
Bureau for the use of the Department now contains a list of
records, histories, photographs, dates of arrests, etc., of about
212,000 persons. There are also "histories and press clip-
pings" now numbering 9,330 made by this Bureau, in envelope
form, for police reference.
The finger-print system of identification which was adopted
in June, 1906, has progressed in a satisfactory manner, and
with it the identification of criminals is facilitated. It has
become very useful in tracing criminals and furnishing corrobo-
rating evidence in many instances.
The statistics of the work of this branch of the service are

ment, but as the duties are of a special character, the following

32 POLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
Miscellaneous Work.
During the year the employees of this service responded, to
1,848 trouble calls; inspected 515 signal boxes, 18 signal desks
and 955 batteries; repaired 193 box movements, 68 registers,
90 polar box bells, 65 locks, 65 time stamps, 10 stable motors,
8 stable registers, 14 vibrator bells, 9 relays, 11 pole changers
and 9 electric fans, besides repairing all bell and electric light
work at headquarters and the various stations. There have
been made 45 plungers, 53 complete box fittings, 51 line blocks,
55 automatic hooks, 3 stable boards and a large amount of
small work done which cannot be classified. One new signal
box was installed on Division 13 and two on Division 17.
The police signal service now has charge of 123 reflector
spotlights, which have been installed by the Commissioner for
the regulation of traffic, also 3 signal towers.
Most of the prescribed district for 1925 and 1926 affecting
this Department was in South Boston. Cable has been
bought but has not been installed. Box outlets and pole
connections were laid in the summer of 1926, but on account
of the underground and other trouble, both this Department
and the Fire Department have not been able to "pull in"
cable together. This work should be done later this season
or early next spring.
Greatly increased use of the automatic answer-back signals
has put added strain on register contacts and other working
parts and the registers have to be constantly repaired. Mea-
sures are being taken to prolong their life until such time as
some one can be found to build new and suitable ones. The
signal desk at Division 4 has been rebuilt and refitted.
There are in use in' the signal service : 1 White truck, 1 Ford
sedan and 1 Ford truck.
During the year the automobile patrol wagons made
53,432 runs, covering an aggregate distance of 98,431 miles.
There were 36,661 prisoners conveyed to the station houses,
3,705 runs were made to take injured or insane persons to
station houses, hospitals or their homes and 379 runs were
made to take lost children to station houses. There were
2,869 runs to fires and 698 runs for liquor seizures. During
the year there were 515 signal boxes in use arranged on 72
battery circuits and 72 telephone circuits; 609,328 telephone
messages and 4,426,607 "on duty" calls were sent over the
lines.

Companies.
During the year licenses of conductors, motormen and

of the Police Commissioner, inaugurated a system to have
many of its employees already licensed both as "Conductors"
and "Motormen" transferred to licenses as "Conductor-
Motorman."
The purpose of the Elevated Railway Company in doing
this was that they could issue an operator's badge, so called,
to each "Conductor-Motorman," who would then bear on
1927.1
