Mulrooney, broadcasting over WJZ, paid a high tribute to the memory of Police Lieut. Michael Mulhall, who had saved fifteen persons from drowning and made numerous other daring rescues.

Commissioner Mulroney, before. his elevation, served for some as captain in the old 16th Precinct, now the 32nd, in Harlem, and won the goodwill and esteem of all Harlemites by his uniform capacity for splendid work and or his outstanding characteristics or giving every man a square deal, regardless of race or color. Youthful Criminal In his address, he refered to the fact that present-day crime is attributable, almost entirely to the younger groups, He asserted that the old-time expert criminals, "such as safe men, burglars pickpockets, had almost disappeared and the most troublesome had become the immature, reckless youth." Speaking of remedial steps, being taken by the Police Dejartment to curb this phase of criminality, Commissioner Mulrooney said that the crime prevention had admirable work in heading off potential criminals in the two years of its existence, and he hopeful of the results to be obtained from a behavior clinic the Department of Education was to establish. Praises Prevention Policy "It is obvious," he said, "that both from a moral and a financial standpoint it is far more profitable for the nation and the community to save the youth before commits a crime than to attempt salvage him after the damage has been done." The conditions revealed among some members of the department in the Magistrates' courts investigation, he said, are "a cause of grave concern and deep indignation" and the actions of the policemen concerned "abhorrent to all decent men and women." "I pledge my word of honor," he said, "that I will continue to exercise every legal power vested in me as commissioner to eliminate from the force those who have failed in their trust." Mrs. Mary E.
