Science Allied ‘With Police in Wi: ar on 1 Crime:

Radio Summons Members to Instant Action

Given Those Who Man ‘Nerve Center.”

BY PHILLIPS PECK

Modern industry and science play important roles in the Police Department’s incessant fight against crime. Radio has come to be the most effective weapon of all law enforcement agencies, and in the local department is “the power behind the throne” in the business of apprehending criminals, Through control rooms at Police Headquarters, orders emanate that weld scattered patrolmen, radio cars, detectives and motorocycle police into a compact, immediately available unit for crime prevention and detection. All the latest devices have been employed to secure safety and efficiency for the men who operate the “nerve center” of the police system. This center consists of four booths housing a radio dispatcher, a telephone operator, a Gamewell officer and a police lieutenant. From this compact office are broadcast the “marching orders’ in the city's war against crime. |

Orders Are Broadcast

Officers cruising through city streets are directed from the house lieutenant’s office, Here battle plans are made and the department's line of attack is mapped. Imaginary zones are laid out surrounding the location of a cri and squad cars are directed by radio to strategic positions within the area. : All orders to radio cars and fo radio-equipped motorcycle police are aired from the dispatcher’s booth, where a record is kept of all orders. Phone message to various departments, ee criminal identification, record, detective and traffic, are handled bg an operator at a central switchboard. Patrolman assigned to the central or downtown area and the many outlying districts make regular reports and receive instructions through the Gamewell system which has its center in the Gamewell operator's office.

Work Is Exacting

Chief reason for providing the best possible working conditions in the police “nerve center” is the exacting and confining nature of its operations. Capt. Robert Batts of the radio department explained that men in the control rooms need the, “utmost in comfort and convenience” to maintain the necessary peak efficiency at all times. Under any other condiitons, transmission of orders would be impaired, he said. Modern air-conditioning, soundproof walls, indirect lighting and other equipment was installed by relief labor, the Federal government and the city jointly providing necessary funds. Three shifts, day, middle and | night, are required to operate the “nerve center.” At present, the day | shift consists of Sergt. Harry Schley, | acting lieutenant; Mrs. Bertha Duclus, telephone operator; Frank Owens, dispatcher, and Tom Bledsoe, Gamewell operator... On the middle shift there is Lieut. Noel Jones, Leona Frankfort, Jack Hart and Harry Bolin. Lieut. John Sheehan, Irene Byers, Irvin McClain and Carl Brown handle the night “trick.”

Then the! rebel planes flew over

{ the heart of the city.

At the Cibelles Square on the great boulevard, the Calle de Alcala, where the War Ministry, the Post Office and the Bank of Spain are situated, the planes first dropped flares to light their target, and then. two bombs. Two more militiamen were wounded. : Another plane returned at 5 a. m. and unleashed a second shower of bombs. At Irun, key to the San Sebastian area, the rebels attacked for the fourth day. Their losses were heavy; their progress was neglgible; but it was reported the Loyalist ammunition was low and the rebels had orders to take Irun today or die in the attempt.

Desertions Increase Foreign Legionnaires, shock troops

1of the rebels, began deserting in | scme number to France as the fight : fizzled out at noon after hours of | fighting and the rebels “dug in,” | apparently for a siege.

Two leaders of the Loyalist fone lar Front and two leaders of the Carlist volunteers on the rebels’ side went to Hendaye, on the French side, to seek agreement not to kill ‘hostages and prisoners, who ever won. Foreign diplomats sought such an agreement. Loyalists in a jubilant communi que from the Madrid War Ministry claimed a great victory in the Lozoya Valley north of Madrid. The rebels attacked and Dadrid believed the attack was meant to be the start of the long awaited offensive, It was a 10-hour fight, a War Mine istry communique said.

The rebels countered with a claim

of a great victory in.the Estrema=dura country through which the southwestern troops are advancing —slowly—on Toledo and Madrid.
