To Promote Establishment Of a
State ConstabuIary.
BACKED BY A MILLIONAIRE
A. A. Hyde Pledges Support of
the Revived Plan.
Alarming Increase of Crimes
Is Basis of the Move.

Handling OF a publicity and educa-
tional campaign to promote sentiment
for state police d. partment is to be
undertaken from Wichita. Many
prominent business and professional
men have indicated a willingness to
help in the campaign. Much interest
was added to the state police cam
paign today when it became known
that A. A Hyde. millionaire Wich-
tia drug manufacturer, had agreed to
help put over the scheme.
Robert r. Hasty, American Legion
member, started tie state police agi
tation more than a year ago. A bill
was introduced in the house by his
brother L. A Hasty providing for Gre
alton of a state police department.
The bill was killed by the house COM
mittee as a result Of state administra-
ton pressure and influence.
Judge Higgins For It.
Now Hasty has revived the state
police theory. Judge w. L. Higgins,
presiding judge of the industrial court,
is known to be strongly in favor of
the plan. In fact Judge Higgins re-
Gently found occasion to urge the mat
ter in a specially concurring opinion
in the Industrial courts coal report to
Governor Allen. On the other hand
Governor Allen has repeatedly made
clear that he is fatty opposed to es-
adjustment of n state police depart
ment. 1t was influence asserted in the
house under his direction that resulted
in defeat of the Hasty bill and brought
n substitute bill from Representative
McDcrmott, administra ton floor
manager and chairman of the state
affairs committee.
Alarming figures as to increase of
crime in Kansas have been gathered
by Hasty and his associates. Hyde,
who has been actively interested in
law enforcement work and is a neigh
Dor of Governor ALLEN, has agreed to
aid in the campaign.
On PENNSYLVANIA Plan.
Need of a state police department.
possibly similar to the Pennsylvania
plan-will be urged on the theory of
better law enforcement. Recently rec
ords have shown enormous increases
in crimes of all classes in the towns
end counties of Kansas. A record in
crease has been made in criminal
court convictions and in spite of the
heavy parole records populations at
the state penitentiary and reforma-
tory have grown more rapidly than at
any time in the history of the state.
1: is reported that a fund has been
created for printing and distribution

MUCH PETTY THEFT
Burglaries Are Revived Following Re-
cent Police Roundup.


cent Police Roundup.
In spite of many arrests by the po-
lice during the last twenty-four hours
in an effort to check the crime wave
that has swept Topeka, numerous
petty thefts and robberies were re-
ported Wednesday night.
A revolver, flashlight, two 81 bills
and a bicycle tire were stolen from
the Rent-a-Ford company, Seventh
and jackson streets. A motometer
was stolen from a Stearns-Knight car
belonging to P. J. Clevenger, at
Tenth and Van Buren, streets. An
electric fan was taken from the home
of w. c. Corbett, 702 jackson street.
William Robb, 401 Jackson street,
reported the theft of a kodak, a coat
and vest. Four rugs were stolen from
61S Lake street. From Ala Freeman
street came the report of the theft
of plush coat. trimmed in moleSSin.
At 1049 Boswell avenue burglars got
away with a revolver. a pocketbook,
a wrist watch, a fountain pen and
$1.50 in cash.
Police believe the burglaries are
committed by drug habitues who
have resorted to stealing as the only
means of obtaining money to buy NOR
phine. Several addicts have been
rounded up by the police and are be-
ing held in Jail for investigation.
