POLICE CHIEFS SAY
 WIRELESS IS HELP
But Big Bill Devery says European Pol1ce Departments Are Rotten, CT They Wouldn't Need
 Wireless.

New Haven, Aug. 2.-"Since the detection of crime and criminals is mainly the work of governments for one would be in favor of the ward the location of a wireless sta ton in every port of entry in the United States as start toward the fullest development of the wireless in detective work"
 Chief of Police Henry D. Cowles, president of the state police associa- ton of Connecticut, thus expressed himself today on the lesson of the wireless in the Crippen case.
 William F. Gum. we'll known throughout New England police cir cles. believes that there is a great future for the wireless in 'my line of business" He said today:
 Judging from the reports of the Crippen chase the wireless was main ly responsible for his capture. In the same way I have hopes that the future will see great extension of wireless telegraphy and telephony in detective work"
 New York, Aug. 2.-There would be several changes in Scotland Yard if Big BilP' Devery, the ''best po- lice chief New York ever had" was running things in that joint" ac- cording to "Bill.'
 "Yes, I think the credit goes to Kendall" said the ex-chief to a United Press representative in his two by four real estate office at Far Rockaway today. "If I had my way I'd fire Dew for the good of the ser vice. put this here Kendall in charge of the joint and shake a few more of these fellows responsible for Doc Crippen's getaway"
 You didn't have wireless in your days. Chief. How did you land crim- jnals making a run for Europe?" he was asked. We didn't need wire less When we suspected man of homicide or he had a disappearance to explain, we put him in the coop. That's the place for suspects until they're cleared. This here gentleman business don't come into homicide cases. Dew does the polite thing with Crippen and Crippen beats it.
 No, we didn't need wireless and we don't need it now. It's a wonder full thing in aiding the capture of criminals. the long arm of the wire less you know, but if you plant your man and nail him first, you don't have to go spending thousands of dollars making up for a blunder- Scotland Yard can't hold a candle to New York's detective bureau. We use American methods and those fel- lows bungle practically everything"
 What is your opinion, Chief, of the police of Antwerp, who let Grip pen get aboard the Montrose togeth- CT with girl clumsily disguised as . boy?"
 Rotten, absolutely rotten. They are what I'd call a lot of mugs"

because they lost trade to the smaller

with his friends, has resigned his
membership in the Hamilton club Of
