declares . manager OF one Of the

In which young men can be trained
for the calling of detectives. I con-
slider this profession equally as I'M
portant as that OF a physician. the
teacher and the lawyer. because the
man who has to ferret out crime
shoulders many responsibilities. He
must not only be able to catch q
crook, which sometimes is a difficult
task. but at times he holds the reputa-
tion Of prominent men in the hollow
of his hand. II an amateur sleUth.

damaging consequences might be ex.
pected
The course in the school should
cover . period Of from two to three
years. The length of time required
would, Of course, be determined to
some extent by the knowledge the
pupil had at the time of enrolment A
college graduate who decided to take
up the detective course could complete
1t sooner than one who had very little
education in the subjects which com.
prise a collegian's course.
IN a school for detectives there
should be courses of foreign languages
because linguistics is a valuable asset
to a detective. The more languages .
sleuth can master the better equipped
he is in pursuing his work. Then there
should be courses in mathematics
science and psychology. as well AZ the
special work which deals with crime
and how criminals are apprehended
Science and psychology play an i'm
portant part today In the apprehen
sion of law-breakers. The Bertillon
system Of anthropometric measure
ments. the study of finger prints. the
microscope for examining blood spots
the handwriting expert. the dicta
graph. the sphymograph and other
modern inventions-all play their
parts in locating suspect and deter
mining whether he Is guilty or not
THE criminal of today is different
from the criminal OF yesterday. Among
the present types of the underworld
are classes of men who aresintelligent
and educated-men with q college edu
cation who have prostituted their gifts
and turned from the paths Of right
eousness and honesty. To catch crooks
OF such caliber requires men Of equal
mental ability. 1t is a case Of brains
against brains. and the shrewdest will
win out. whether 1t be the criminal
suspect or the man who is to catch
him. You can we'll see why under such
circumstances a detective must be
well fortified with knowledge that
has bearing on the criminal and
his operations"
