Commissioner Whalen contended that if the various problems con- fronting his department continned to grow, the present police force of 18,000 men would have to be doubled. He predicted, however, that "by the end of this year we will show a reduction of 1,000 crimes in the city and a substantial increase in arrests and "No Quar- ter" convictions.”
Touching on his previously an- nounced policy of giving the crimin- al element no quarter in the city, Mr. Whalen suid that "in dealing with criminals we cannot stand GENERAL MEETING Ted to consider offers to par-

Police Commissioner," be continued, "let me say to them that they do not cry when a policeman is shot in the back.. I don't mind construc- tive criticism but destructive criticism in a situation like this is injurious to the community. We must uphold our police because if wa do not we will have a city here that will make us hang our heads in shame. We must encourage our police force so long as they make no mistakes.
"The Police Department has made a great record. Despite the many different nationalities and elements represented by the inhabitants of this city, New York is the second best law abiding city in the United States.
"Crime has been on the increase throughout the country and as far as this city is concerned, prohibi tion is most frequently to blame for the increase tere. I have analyzeil the situation. There is growing up the so-called speakeasy problem and this is a serious one.
"In the old days, you could wipe out à vicious saloon. Nowadays, alt you need is two-bottles and a room and you have a speakeasy. We have 32,000 speakeasies in this city.
From the speakeasy comes dia- ing and dancing and out of that This grows the hostess game. hostess problem verges seriously on a vice that we wiped out many years ago. It is very difficult for the police to get the necessary legal evidence to wipe out these places, We have to-day 18,000 men on the police force but it will be nec ssary to double the number if a change does not come in existing con ditions
