Sir William Horwood, ex-Com

of missioner the Metropolitan Police, and Sir Wyndham Childs, formerly chief of the Special Branch at Scotland-yard, were each awarded £100 damages in the libel action against the "New States man."

They had complained of an article referring to Lord Lee's speech at a meeting of the Police Commission, which contained the

passage:-

Such an inquiry might be of great value if it put an end to the Horwood-Childs-Bodkin methods-an end, that is to say, to the Hyde Park scandals, to the creation of crime where there is no crime, and to the at- tempted enforcement by the police of moral standards which have nothing whatever to do with the preservation of public order, Mr. Norman Birkett, K.C., con- tinuing his re-examination of Sir William Horwood, when the case

Was

resumed, asked if any dis cretion were left to a policeman to decide what constituted an act of indecency in Hyde Park.

"Absolute Discretion.** "Absolute discretion," replied Sir William, who added that, after hearing the allegation, the atation sergeant decided if prima facis evidence to justify a there were

charge.

Sir Archibald Bodkin, Director of Public Prosecutions, then gave evidence. He said he had nothing to do with the administration of Scotland-yard, or the enforcement

of

the regulations concerning public order in Hyde Park, Jove in one exceptional case, on the ex- press instructions of the Secretary of State."

Chief Inspector Duncan, of Hyde Park, said that only two of his sixty policemen did duty in plain clothes. Instructions were given to them not to patro! the grass, and they were not told to look about for acts of indecency.
