The Commis sioner's determination to bring about better pistol shooting was the result of an investigation which disclosed the fact that only SO members of the 2L Altaian FIFTH AVENUE AT THIRTY-FOURTH STREET telephone: murray hill 70OO department, which numbers 13000 men, are expert shots and only 800, or 5 percent cf the force, have qualified as sharpshooters and marksmen.

Then two little Tappers, not quite 16, were arraigned in the Children's Court last week on a charge of smoking cigarettes in Prospect Park the enthusiastic young patrolman who arrested them said: "Vt'hy, Your Honor, everyone driving by stopped to look at tftem." these facts to light was prompted by the recent killing cf rive citizens by bullets fired by patrolmen while in pursuit of suspected criminals. Poor marksmanship and indiscriminate fir.

Believes in Yonth ing in crowded streets have been held responsible for these nve deaths. High officials in the department who conducted investigations re quested the Commissioner to take some step to improve pistol training of the police. The Commissioner Is new working out a plan that will give patrolmen more time on tr.e pistol range, ine co-operation cf the Slats in allowing policemen to use tne pistol ranges in the various armories in the five boros Beginning Tomorrow Annual ae of Imported Lace Curtains and Upholstery Fabrics Diverse weaves and patterns for every drapery or upholstery need.

To qualify as a marksman under the present department rules a policeman must score between 60 and 69 out of a possible 100.

The next higher rank is that of sharpshooter, which calls for 70 to 79 out of a possible 100. The highest rank, that of expert marksman, calls for at least 80 out of 100, In order to become a patrolman a man must make 25 hits out of a possible 100. The new regulations governing compulsory pistol practice are expectea to De issued ty tne Commissioner by the first cf the month.

The younger policemen who served in the Arrcy during the World War are better shots than "Such a thing could only happen In Brooklyn," His Honor retorted, smiling, as he dismissed the charge. "His Honor" was Judge Samuel D. Lfvy of Manhattan, sitting in Brook-ltn Children's Court this month In the absence of Judne Wilkin. A chat with Judge Levy In his chambers alter court revealed why he enjoys the unusual distinction of being one of the most liberal Judges on the bench who at the same time can be severe when necessity demands. He has learned to temper Justice not only with mercy but with a sense of humor as well.

i Some Fine Women Smoke. do not disapprove of women's Wioking?" he was asked. (Judge Levy, an earnest man for all his sense of humor, thought a minute before he replied: 'Some very fine women smoke." i Not Against Law. jAnd then he hastened to explain: was no crime for these girls to Itioke. Do not think I sanction jcung girls smoking, but at the same fine it is not against the law for them to do so.

And it people gathered t9 look at them, then I'm afraid did not go any further in expressing his fear for naive Brooklyn-Jifs who haven't seen women smoke. "Smoking for women is no longer a cjriosity." he went on. "These girls had probably seen their mothers eijioke. The fact that it Is Injurious ta a young girl's health should be impressed upon them, not that they WTre committing a crime. It's time we looked at lots of things squarely lti the face.

Modern times sanction things that were never dreamed of V'Jien I was a boy." Blames Living Conditions. Modern living conditions are often t'ae cause of crime among young girls and boys, he pointed out. A girl of of strict foreign parents may get herself a Job. She wants silk stockings and short dresses like the rest of the girls. Her parents think silk stockings are an extravagance.

The trl wants them so bad she steals. is an example of being too ttrict," Judge Levy explained. "On the other side is the case where parents are too lax, where there Is no home training. We will have to strike I lie happy medium before Juvenile delinquency can be wiped out." I Juvenile Crime Not Increasing. budge Levy holds that Juvenile ffime is not increasing.

Although there were approximately 4.000 casrs handled in the Brooklyn Children's year, his contention is that tlje increase in crime is in ratio to tie Increase in population. Children No Worsn Than Ever. "Children are no worse now than UJcy ever were," he said. "M.tny pople think short dresses arc immoral. When I was a boy.

wourn wore gowns that swept the sidewalks, thereby keeping good, honest dav liJborers out of their jobs. Was the vprld any more moral? I'm afraid net. Now, I consider short skirts a mutter of taste. I do not see how tijey can- go much shorter without the police taking action. But a girl cSn still be a little lady and wear dresses to her knees." Iust because a child has had an unfortunate criminal experience It does not necessarily mean that his Whole life Is ruined.

Judge Levy pointed out. He scotled at the old most of the cld-timers. The Commissioner and ether of flcials refused to discuss the possibilities of an order allowing patrolmen to fire at fugitives only when their crime is of a serious nature. Many times an officer chases a man pointed out by a crowd that is pursuing him and when the fugitive is overtaken it is found that he committed only a Monte Carlo, Aug. 27 P) Those who lose their last dollar In the Monte, Carlo Casino hereafter will be Just one trip home poorer than those who formerly found themselves in the same fix.

The reason Is that efficiency experts attached to the Casino have decided to do away with the "viatiques." Formerly, when a gambler went "broke" in Monte Carlo the Casino would supply him with free transportation home providing he asked for it and the secret service reported that he had lost enough money to Justify the expense. The free rides were called "viatiques." It was seldom that a legitimate request was refused. Scores of gamblers were returned to England each year. Many went to South America and the United States at the expense ol the Casino.
