RIDERS IN GRAY CURBING CRIME. State Trooper* Making Safe All the State's Highway* and By- Ways—Patrol for Law Hobo days are a thing of the past in New York. State and many are won dofing just -why tbe useless and often criminal ■wanderer no longer is seen ■ in this neighborhood. The answer Is the rider in gray, the svate trooper, - who has made life in this state ... comfortable for the tramp. , Not many years ago Now York was , infested with great numbers of waa- , dcrers aad their thievery and other crimes made tho rural dwellers fear- . ful and cost the state many hundreds o£ thousands of dollars annually. . -Pennsylvania became free from tramps when it established its con- ctabulary and New York has had a ’ ..-similar experience. Tbe tramps now 1 .are wandering in Xew Jersey, Con necticut and Massachusetts and a de- v ,mand is arising fci those states for the ' development of constabularies. Leaving for Other States. High wages are not the answex to ■;'the absence of tramps. They still ex- ■•ist in numbers In states without eon- ' stabularies, a teaching nucleus for .; young boys with thc wanderlust to - join and bccome worthless hoboes. 7 “Criminals also aro lonrnljg that plundering country stores and houses is no longer safe. They no longer nd -tho country a safe hiding place lu this state after the commission of a crime. ' The men in gray are riding alertly as the polica force OH the country dis tricts. The state troopers have been doing great worlc/iii apprehendinj; criminals who have driven automo- ~ biles into the country lo escape arrest. The state troopers and police force.5! of / .the cities, have made New-York State • such a dangerous place for criminal .operations, especially in the country districts, that criminals are finding It .more profitable to hide in other states and operate in states where 100 per ‘cent, policing does not obtain. No Petty Arrests Made. - The work of the state troopers on • road patrol is earning them the re- ; -spect of the motorists. These super- - vigors of safe motoring arc riding •their motorcycles to enforce the law • In a way just to morotlsts and all users of the highways. There are 232 of them on the Job on tho roads of thc Btate and each has been given this message by Maj. George F. Chandler, superintendent of the Xew York State Troopers: \Don't annoy bocnuso you have the authority. -Don’t make petty arrests for petty, misdemeanors but arrest re lentlessly the real lawbreaker.” When “disorders have arisen in sev- aral .citics the state troopers, accord ing to M aj/ Gen. John F. O’Ryan, havo proved specialists In maintaining quietness. When the . Batavia police force found itself five men short this spring through sudden resignations Troop A wns appealed to. Troopers1 took their posts in Batavia as police men and remained cfflelcmtly on the Job until Mayor Louis A. Prentiss was able to reorganize his Police Depart ment. Many Convictions Securcd. , A total of 4,271 men and women wero brought to justice by thc state troopers iu 1910 and 3.0DS were con victed and the cases of 333 were still pending nt the ilrst of tho year. Only 0 per cent, of those arrested worn dis charged, showing that the state troop er is not given to making false ar rests. Of the total arrests 1,432 wero for violations of tho Motor Vehlclo Law. 207 were for disorderly conduct, 249 for petit larceny, 183 for public in toxication, 120 for grand larceny, 200 for juvenile delinquency, 95 for viola tions of thc Highway Law, 203 for disorderly person, 100 for burglary, 53 for carrying concealed weapons, 01 for common gambling, 50 for keeping gambling devices and 18 for keeping gambling housos.
