ATTORNEY GENERAL ALARMED
 BY LARGE INCREASE OF CRIME

souls as to become the fixed ideals ot the people,
 The Attorney General finds in his re- port that the twin offenses Of assault and battery and of carrying concealed weapons also increase with each year He is inclined 10 think that inadequate punishment is meted out to those of- lenders .J
 He says too:
 From my experience Tn prosecuting criminal cases in the Supreme Court feel safe in saying that at least one half of the hornictdes are caused by one party or the other having a concealed weapon For this reason the Solicitor should give this and kindred offenses their untirin= efforts.'
 Summing up his figures the Attorney General says that the principal in- creases in the general statement are In the offensives of abusive language. gaming, violating prohibition laws, as- sault and battery, assault and battery with weapons and homicide.
 Mir Wilson who has given deep thought to this increase of crime makes several important suggestions. Chief among them Is this recommendation:
 That an act be passed providing that in appeal to the Supreme Court in criminal cases the court snaIl not re-
 
 a special or written charge, asked by the appellant and refused by the court if the proposition covered m such a charge is substantially covered by charge given at the request of the ap- pellant or by the general oral charge of the court, and no case shall be re- versed by the Supreme Court unless 1t affirmatively appears from the record that the trial court failed or refused to charge the jury either in a general charge or :n a special charge given at the request of the appellant upon the proposition embodied in such refused charge
 Such statute. would in my opinion. result In great saving to the State and would largely reduce the number of reversala " "P
 The Attorney General :fso suggests that the law restricting the sale of liquor and providing a punishment for those who sell it in prohibition terri tory should be so amended that the agent or assistant of either the seller or the purchaser in effecting the sale of liquor to be shipped into prohibition districts shall be adjudged guilty of violating the law.
 He recommends. too. lore efficient vagrancy law, and suggests that law should be passed making burglary in the night time a capital offense.
 The Attorney General takes occasion to say words of rommendation fRr the faithful and efficient services rendered him fin the preparation of his report by his assistant, Thomas W. Martin, and especially for services rendered during the illness of the Attorney General.

FOR INDIVIDUAL STATES

Something new in connection with the
postal savings bank movement is the
measure by Mr. Kennedy, of Nebraska.

meet the objection Of Eastern States
where the postal savings are not want
ed. and at the same time permit West

islature decides 10 ask for the estab-
lishment OF such institutions in the
State. the Postmaster General shall pro-
ced to carry the plan into effect Mr.
Kennedy has discussed the measure
with a number Of members OF the
