FORTY DOGS ARE PROCURED AT PH SEVILLE (Continued From Page One.) Indianapolis the pay of four sergeants of police and the Community chest the salary of a woman who is maintained there to act as a stenographer and office attendant for the four policemen. This “petit police department'* was established some time ago in connection with the Indianapolis Humane Society. The law permits the police depar.ment to assign officers to special duty in humane work under the direction of the president of the Humane Society, who is W. H. Roberts. DR. I*l UH.IN PASSES ON COMPLAINTS. Through some kind of an arrangement which is not clear, even to the members of the society, authority over these police officers has been delegated to Hr. C. A. I‘fafflin, who in turn has delegated it to the stenographer employed by the society out of the funds provided by the Community Chest. This woman directs ttie activity of these four policemen, receives complaints of cruelty and refers them to Dr. I’fafflin, who appears to pass on the question of whether or not they shall be investigated. A recent quiet surveillance of the work done by the four s-rgeants und**r this arrangement disclosed that they do r.ot make regular reports to the police department. hut make their calls to the stenagrapher and are otherwise free agents in the work of "insp -clion." which they are presumed to do throughout Indianapolis. These officers are seldom seen in any other place than their home* or the immediate vn inity of the police station, and repeated complaints have been made that calls concerning cruelty t<> animals made to room If are rc- i.'d and as “annoyances by the department that is supposed to receive them. The “petit police for< e" e nsisfs of Dr. I’fafflin. who act-a- its chief without title and without legal recognition; the ste. nographer, Fred Gtn.solous. who is physically unable to do active police duty: bam Gaddis who also looks after the police pension fund records: Sergoant Spears, a colored officer who served for a long time a> a patrolman, and T'-m Bledsoe. who wrote the foregoing “-a-enis to me” letter to the Itushviiie marshal con corning dogs that came into his jurisdiction. REGI'LAB OFFICERS HANDLE l AMIS. It is a well-known f.a- t at polio sta tlon that whenever i-as- s concerning cruelty to animals come to the attention of the Indianapolis police department regular officers sir- sent to handle them without the attention of the “petit police department." When a s.-ar.-h warrant for the medics’ college was issued recently by Judge Waiter Pritchard it wa? r-i ro dto Lieutenant Houston for service and the li ut> nant was hoc.nil aniod by Sergeant Gunsolous.

investigation of the college he held a conference with Robert E. Neff, registrar of the college, and Dr. W. I>. Gateh, under whose directions the operations on the dogs are performed. Several interested citizens were present at this meeting and at its conclusion Dr. Gateh promised to recommend to the faculty of the college: 1. That arrangements bo made by which a representative of the Indianapolis Humane Society he present at the clinics when dogs were rubjected to operations. 2. That descriptions of all dogs received be furnished the humane society in order that lost pets might be identified. 3. That any citizen seeking a lost dog be permitted to examine the kennels when accompanied by an officer or someone designated for that work by the society. 4. That immediate changes 1n the method of caring for the dogs with the intention of making them more comfortable be made. SIR PRISED BY INFORMATION. Dr. Gntch, whose statements that (he dogs were properly bedded, kept under the influence of drugs following operations, and obtained elsewhere than from Indianapolis, were refuted in his presence, declared that he had no authority to bind the college to any action, but said he would recommend the changes asked at once.

More than a ween has passed since Dr. Gateh agreed to make these recommendations to the faculty of ti e college which is headed by I)r. C. P. Emerson and no attempt has been -made by the college authorities cither to have their clinics opened to a representative of the humane society or to permit those ■persons seeking lost dogs to visit the kennels.

Indiana Daily Times: Gentlemen: The Indiana Daily Times is entitled to a vote of thanks from the people of Indianapolis for their investigation of the methods that the medical college employs in their treatment of dogs. Certainly the mere fact that the dogs bear scars of several operations is sufficient grounds for a most thorough investigation. That great organization, the humane society, is certainly unworthy of its name if it permits such cruel, contemptible condition to exist in this city. A DOG OWNER.
