USE MOVIES TO
STUDY GERMAN
CRIMINAL CLASS

BERLIN, Jan. Is German crimi-
nologiats have called the movie film
to their aid.
Movie schools are now attached to
the Berlin police department. and
this system is being extended to other
parts OF the country.
Tricks" Of criminals of all lands
are taught by the film. The ways
and wiles OF the burglar. the stick
up man, the forger, the bank robber
are carefully explained to policemen
with the film. which at the same time
gives valuable instruction in counter
acting the activities of the criminal
element.
One of the special features Of this
movie instruction is the application Of
the finger print system. Policemen
are taught all the intricacies of this
art. so that patrolman or a desk
man can apply this identification
means fully as well as a finger print
expert
Crime has been vastly on the in
crease in Germany since the war end
ed and the police have been hard
pressed to keep up with the criminal
as many of their best de-
tectives and patrolmen have quit for
more lucrative fields. The introduc-
ton Of the movie school is in line with
efforts TO build up the air police and
several other Innovations of postwar
days.

GOVERNMENT OF CITY
PROVES MORE COSTLY
IN 1919 THAN BEFORE
Expense Record Set But Year
is Prosperous One Accord
ing to Recorder Fitz Ger
AIDS Report Prepared for
Council.

Every department Of Pcndleton's
city government, with the exception OF
health, legal services and the treas
urer, cost more for operation during
1919 than for any previous year, ac-
cording to the annual report Of Thorn
as Fitz Gerald. city recorder, which
was completed and ready for the city
council last night on the whole the
year was a prosperous one for the city,
the report states.
There were 325 permits issued dur
\ Ing the year for the erection. altera-
tion and repair OF buildings within the
city. The estimated cost was $780,
! 10000
There were issued G7 sidewalk per-
mite for the construction of 5513
lineal feet of concrete sidewalks; S2
plumbing permits. and 1873 burial per
mits during the year.
40 Gases Tried
There were 40 cases tried in the
recorders court during the year re-
sulting in the collection Of fines total
ing $5,4S46S. The operating expens-
es of the police department were 81
s77.S9. and of the recorders Office
S1.637.72 during the year
There were expended for better
ments in the Fire Department $639-4S
while the operating expenses were
s8.050.12 during the year.
There were 1Gs licenses issued dur
ing the year producing a revenue OF
s2,567.00. The amount expended in
the extension and repair Of the levee
during the year was S7,274.31. There
were sewer extensions constructed on
the Jane street and Grant street later
ais at an expenditure of S5.Sl3.IS.
There was no paving in the city dur
ing the year but there are several dis
tricts on the north side ready for paw
ing during the coming year as soon
as "A plant can be procured for the
work.
Few Ordinances Printed
The bulk of the ordinances of the
city are not in printed form, and none
of the charter amendments are IN
print at the present time, with the eX-
ception Of few special ordinances
printed during the past year. While
the recorder has pretty fair memory,
1t is almost impossible for him to re-
member all the ordinances passed
since 1906, and also as many of the
ordinances we're passed without any
regard to their effect on existing
ordinances, modifying and in some in
stances repeating whole sections OF the |
same without any mention being made
50 that it is quite difficult at
this time to really say what ordln-
auces are in full force and effect |
without extensive research ard study |
'I would therefore recommend that |
some provision be made for the codi-
fvine, and printing of the Charter ana
Of the city without delay
so that the officers can intelligentlv
enforce the same" the recorder
ccommends.

NEW WOMAN'S BUREAU

The present Congress has enacted a
law permanently establishing a Wo-
mans Bureau to formulate standards
and policies to promote the welfare
of wage-earning women, improve their
working conditions, increase their eff
cheney and advance their opportunities
for profitable employment. A woman
will be appointed as director of the
bureau by the President and will re-
port to the Department of Labor upon
all matters pertaining to the welfare
of women in industry. Senator Will
liam S. Kenyon, of Iowa, the author
Of the bill, stated recently: "The pur-
pose OF the bill is to help in all the
problems that may affect the 12,OOO,-
600 wage-earning women in this coun-
try. This bureau, that would now be
permanently established, has studied
many questions affecting the working
conditions and wages of women"

PALMER'S RESIGNATION
CALLED FOR

Washington, June 22-(Special cor
respondence) -Attorney General Pal

fice," stated Representative George
Holden Tinkham recently, relative to
report made by subcommittee of
the Judiciary Committee of the House
of Representatives, charging that the
Attorney General had used his power
as chief prosecuting officer of the Gov
eminent. 'fornthe purpose of fixing
maximum selling prices of sugar in
Louisiana, and in so doing acted Who'll
ly without the authority of law, and in
violation of his construction of his Of
fetal duty. He has also been found
guilty by his official action of giving
immunity from prosecution for profit
eering to all persons who might make
excessive profits under the price set
by him in the sugar traf1ice in Louis
lana. This fact was based upon his
own confession before the Committee
that he would not prosecute anyone
selling at or below the agreed prices.
Since the Committee also found tina,
his action gave apparent government
tai sanction to extremely high sugar
prices thus causing an advance in the
Cuban Market he is responsible in
some degree for the high price of SUI
gar in America today. For the Attor-
ney General to have thus given i'm,
munity to profiteers, increased tho
price of sugar and violated in two
particulars the law which he has
sworn to obey, makes his further oc-
cupancy of the office of Attorney Gen
eral impossible"

VICIOUS" PROTECTION

Referring to that portion of the
Fall report on Mexico which suggests
way for the future protection of
American lives and property in that
country, Mr.. Gompers says, "The
heart of the report can only be de-
scribed as vicious" Which, of course
is a perfectly natural view for Mr..
Gompers to take. The protection of
lives and property is the least of tina.
gentleman's concerns. In the last year
he has specifically endorsed move
ments, which if they had been persiss,
ed in would have brought death to
thousands and the destruction of mil
lions of wealth. The Boston police
strike, the strike of the coal miners,
and the threatened tieup of the rail
roads by the Brotherhoods, were all
as menacing to the safety of the peo-
pie as anything that is ever likely to
occur in Mexico, yet Mr.. Gompers
gave his enthusiastic support to each
of those disturbances.
