What is Legal Reserve
Life Insurance ?

I have been asked this ques-
ton many times.
Some think Legal Reserve life
insurance is a gamble where you
must die if you are to win.
What is your aim in life? To
create an estate for yourself and
family, isn't it?
When you buy q policy from
Oregon Life you buy on interest
in group of mortgages and
bonds on the inStallment plan.
Mortality tables scientifically
foretell how many arr going to
die and how many are going to
live.
This enables Oregon Life to
know exactly how much each
must pay in order to set aside
the funds-inveSted in bonds and
mortgageS-to pay a given con-
tract. These funds are pro-
tected by state laws and must be
held in reserve to mature your
policy.

are we aSle to do this. We have

bring into play as the means of preventing
the potential criminal from becoming an
actual violator of the laws of the land. To
this end he is striving to make the Depart
ment of Justice Bureau of Investigation so
efficient, so far-seeing in its ramifications
and operations that it will put not the fear
of God, perhaps. but so to speak. the fear of
Burns into the hearts of all budding young
potential criminals.
One of the first steps in this process of
increasing the efficiency of the Department
of Justice was taken by Mr. Burns when
he began wedding out the dead wood" in
his organization. Burns has no objection to
fat detectives. provided they are fat below
and not above the necktie. He has gone
through the record of every man in his de-
partment. and has interviewed most of his
operatives in person.

seemed more fitted than what they had been
doing. Still others have been detailed to
one or the other Of the two training schools
for a course OF instruction.
In a few instances men of exceptional
ability, or of peculiar aptitude for impart
ing their knowledge to others have been de-
tailed to the instruction schools as profess
sors or lecturers. A few members of the
faculty OF these schools have been engaged
from outside the service because of out
standing qualifications for some highly spe-
cialized branch OF instruction.
In no case, however has a man been dis
missed for political reasons Ability alone,
or at least capacity for Improvement have
been considered in retaining men, 1t being
the cardinal principle OF Burns that politics
be kept out of his department
So much for personnel. The second great
step in the direction of greater efficiency was
the extension of the operations of the Bureau
of Investigations to practically every nook
and cJner of the United States. Under the

way. Operatives were sent out from head
quarters on particular cases, and sometimes
their mission took them into out of the way
places There was not, however, a unified
and coordinated system for covering the
whole of the United States.
What Burns did was so simple that one
wonders why no one ever thought of doing
il before He merely annexed to his force of
working operatives practically every city
police department, county sheriff, village
constable and other local peace officers in the
United States. BY securing this cooperation,
which in most cases was given, with great
cheerfulness. Burns has, virtually increased
his personnel several thousandfold with little
or no additional cost to the Government.
1t is as if he had in one fell swoop added
couple of hundred thousand active working
members to his staff. The Department of
Justice now stretches in perfect network,
not only from Portland, Ore, to Portland, Me-,
and from San Diego to Key West. but like
wise betwixt and between. If Burns
wants" a man whose approximate where
abouts he knows, all he has to do is to notify
his various agencies in that vicinity, and
sooner or later that man is almost sure to
be picked up" Or, in the converse oper-
alton il the Chief Of Police of Podunk ar
rests a suspicious character and finds from
papers or other evidences on his person
facts which seem to indicate that the De-
partment of Justice would be interested in
the case, he promptly notifies Washington.
In this way many important malefactors
have been picked up.
In appearance Burns does not comport
with the popular idea of detective. He
has none of the "earmarks" of either the
''Sherocko' of the funny papers or even
OF the "f1atfooted sleuth" of popular fiction.
Beyond a certain keenness of the eye and
a somewhat disconcerting manner of asking
questions, there is nothing to suggest the
