Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Known to the Police But I can speak with more authority for the poor, whom I know, love, and serve. The poor have no ill-feeling toward the rich they harbour no suspicions; no envy, hatred, or malice dwell in their simple minds. Their goodness astonishes me, and it rebukes me. Ah, when we get at the heart of things, rich and poor are very close together, and this close ness makes me hopeful; for out of it social salvation will come and the day arrive when experiences like unto mine will be impossible, and mine will have passed away as an evil dream. Sincerely and devoutly I hope that this simple record of some parts of my life and my work may tend to bind rich and poor still closer.

Book My Police Court Friends With the Colours  Classic Reprint

Download or read book My Police Court Friends With the Colours Classic Reprint written by Robert Holmes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Police Court Friends With the Colours My registers show that in these seventeen years last past I have visited sixteen thousand seven hundred and thirty-eight men and lads in their own homes, having followed them from the Police Court after prosecution for breaches of the law. The offences were mostly trivial, arising out of mischievous rather than criminal tendencies. Among the great bulk of the men it was idleness, drink, or gambling that caused their appearance before the Bench; with the lads, evil home influence, lack of discipline, above all, lack of worthy companions and friends, lay at the root of their misdoings. Thanks to a variety of means of help put into operation for their benefit by numerous persons, most of these were stayed in their evil course at its beginning. A few, a very few, developed into criminals. I have continued to do what 1 could even for these, some of whom are now serving with the colours. But the following sketches have nothing whatsoever to do with them. Another day it may be my privilege to deal with the problem of the confirmed criminal, be he monotonously sentenced to term after term of ordinary imprisonment or condemned to a long period of penal servitude.

Book Crime in America and the Police  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Crime in America and the Police Classic Reprint written by Raymond B. Fosdick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crime in America and the Police But this is not the whole contrast. The forebears of London's present population for generations back were Englishmen, bred to English customs and traditions, just as the forefathers of modern Parisians were Frenchmen, born to French institutions and ideals. In New York, Chicago and other large cities of the United States there are hundreds of thousands of residents whose mothers or fathers or both were born abroad. If we add this class to the foreign-born population, of which we have been speaking, to form what may be called the foreign stock element, we find that it comprises 80% of New York's population, and that of the total number, amount ing to nearly three-fourths came of non-eng lish speaking people.1 Similarly, this foreign-stock ele ment constitutes the majority of the population in the nineteen largest cities of the United States. In other words, the native white population of native parentage amounts to less than one-fifth the total population of New York and less than one-fourth of the populations of Chicago, Boston, Cleveland, Detroit and Milwaukee; while in cities like Fall River, Massachusetts, it consti tutes little more than In only fourteen of the fifty largest cities of America does the native parentage population equal fifty per cent of the total.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mounted Justice: True Stories of the Pennsylvania State Police So conspicuous did the fact become that, as public opinion strengthened in New York, it peremptorily demanded the working facts about Pennsylvania. Therefore, after a careful study of all sources, and after months of research work and investigation on the spot, I wrote Justice to All, the history of the Pennsylvania State Police. The book at once became a sort of textbook, and the late President Roosevelt presented a copy to each of the Senators and Assemblymen of the New York Legislature that, a few weeks later, passed New York's State Police Bill.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Justice and Police IT was at one time hoped that the book in this Series on Justice and Police would be written by Mr. C. P. Ilbert. But he was called away to the Council Board of India, and after a while the work was placed in my hands. My already great regret that the book comes not from him but from me has been increased by reading two chapters of the unfinished work that he left behind him. They were about the County Courts and the relation between. Equity and Law, and I have had the great advantage of using them in the revision of what I had already written on the same topics but for no part of this book can he be held answerable. I am also deep in debt to many writers on English law, but above all to Mr. Justice Stephen and Dr. Rudolph Gneist. This book is so short and slight that I must content myself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations on the Making of Policemen In recent years the so-called police problem has become one of the more institutionalized topics of routine conversation in this society. Regardless whether one views the police as friend or foe, virtually everyone has a set of cop stories to relate to willing listeners. Although most stories dramatize personal encounters and are situationally specific, there is a common thread running through these frequently heard accounts. Indeed, in such stories the police are almost always depicted as a homogenous occupational grouping some how quite different than most other men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guarding a Great City Both before and since leaving the Police Depart ment, I have been asked so often to address various social and other organizations on the subject of the police, or to write articles dealing with some par ticular phase of police work, that many friends have urged me to put my experience and views on this important subject in the more permanent form of a book, to which inquiries, so far as I am concerned, could be referred. If these opinions of mine have any value, they will thus at least be accessible in permanent form. The subject itself is one which concerns not only the citizens of New York, but the vast army of visitors and sojourners in the metrop olis, and is one to which the country at large gives a great deal of attention. Every advance in adding to the efficiency and honesty of police administra tion in New York is sure, sooner or later, to be fol lowed by the other great cities in the United States. The example of this mighty city is far-reaching. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
