More Policemen Greatly Needed in Atlanta Ward Report

Chief Ball presents to the police board a detailed briefing by Captains Jennings McCurdy and Thompson on staffing shortfalls. With 125 patrolmen for 200 miles of streets, large wards have as few as two or four men on night and residence duty, bicycles aiding patrols in some areas, highlighting risks of fires and slow alarms without more personnel.
