What Do the Voters of
Detroit Intend to Do About
the Matter In November?

Detroit is in the grip of an lncompe
tent police department
This police department, disorganlzeo
and demoralized has demonstrated thai
il is unable to cope with the thugs yegg-
men, safe-blowers, pickpockets, burglar
gunner and thieves and crooks Of every
description that have infested the city
attracted by the "wide-open' town AM
the growing prosperity of the com
mnnity.
The city where life is worth living
< finds itself facing a situation that has no
parallel in the recent history of any city
in the country and that savors OF con-
ditions that existed in the lawless west
in its widest, wooliest days.
Assassins, within the past few months,
have shot down Detroit citizens and es-
capped unpublished.
Yeggmen and ''petermen' have tun-
neled themselves into Detroit business
places, dynamited safes, looted stores
and made safe getaway"
Bandits on the public highway in busy
sections of the city, with force of arms,
have taken huge sums of money, the
4 property Of Detroit business people.
Pickpockets have piled their sly, sneak
ing trade, and still are plying it on De
troit street cars and in Detroit public
places.
Turnout it all the police have shut
fed aimlessly and lifelessly about while
the parasites who have profted by the
police ineAiciency are enjoying the fruits
OF their footing and laughing in their
sleeves at the wooden police department.
As a result thruout the country De-
troit has reputation as city where
everything goes. Detroiters travelling
east, west, north and south, visiting
every section of the city. return with
word that the town where life was
worth living" is becaming known as the
city where a life is worth little.
To attempt to recount all, or nearly
all. of the cases in which inefficient po-
lice protection and aimless police action
have left crime unsolved and criminals
unpublished within recent years, would
be gigantic task.
Some, within the past few months, are
excellent examples however, of the sit
uation.
Last February, out on West Jefferson
ave., Joseph Kruzewski, banker and
the father of large family, standing in
the teller's cage in his bank, was shot
down by gunman in broad daylight.
Rudolph Snezek. young man with
whom it was known Kruzewski had quar-
red, was tried for the crime and acquit-
ted.
The police, after a vain endeavor to
fasten the crime on the young man,

\ ASSASSIN.

Senator Shaforth Would
Grant independence in
aFeW Years.
ADVOCATE SETTING
OF DEFINITE DATE
Several Senator'S Would Give
Pledge, Others Favor Striking
Out Provision Altogether.

Washington, Jan THE real pur-
pose Of the Philippine bill. to promise
independence within few years 70
the Filipinos, was openly ayowed by
Senator Shafroth, Of Colorado, In the
Senate to-day. The debate showed a
strong disposition by many Senator'S
on both sides to repudiate the eompro-
mise embodied in the present bill, and
either make definite pledge, setting
date, or strike out the provision en-
tirely. Senator Kenyon wanted TO set
ten years as limit Senator McCum-
Der urged that steps first be taken TO
neutralize the islands.
"If we can get the word 'indepen-
dence' In this preamble" declared Sen
ator Shafroth, "it is my confident be-
lief that before many years have passed
the people OF the United States will
20 on to grant complete freedom. II
we once set our feet on the path, we
will 20 on firmly and quickly 20 the
end. The language used by both Re
publican and Democratic officials for
years permits no other construction
than that independence should be
granted. Now we ask the Congress to
redeem those promises in language
which can mean nothing else than that
the Filipinos shall be free when they
desire it," Later he expressed the
hone that independence could be gwen
"in two or three years"
Senators Borah, Cummins, Kenyon
and Thomas were among those who
asked why, if the bill intended this.
definite date for independence was not
embodied. Senator Cummins indicated
that he would support such a change.
Senator Borah insisted that in case
Independence were granted it should be
without any "strings" or pledges. The
danger of a charge OF bad faith IN case
the promises Of President Wilson and
Governor General Harrison were not
carried out was adm tied, but IL was
argued that this government should not
assume the slightest responsibility for
a government so created.
