CRIME WAVE SURGES
OVER KANSAS CITY

Kansas City, Mo-. Feb. s.-with the
regularity of the tides, rather than
an occasional wave, crime has surged
ever Kansas City in vast volume of
murders, robberies and lesser acts of
criminality during the last few
months, according to Ward Clifford,
executive secretary of the Law En-
forcement Association, formed here
for the purpose, not only in suppress
ing crime but to ascertain and cor
rect conditions which foster it.
"Crime in Kansas City is highly
organized business and those who are
directing crime use as efficient meth
DDS as any successful person does IN
conducting a legitimate enterprise"
Mr.. Clifford declared. "The public
cannot hope to combat organized
crime without organized opposition. /"
Mr.. Clifford declared that it was be-
cause criminals found refuge and en-
tertainment in Kansas City that they
made their operations q continuous
performance here. With this in mind,
the Law Enforcement Association
plans censorship of motion picture
theaters, pool and dance halls, gamb-
ling and the social evil. To root out
crime. he said, the city must be clean
ed up morally. Unemployment, he
said, was not considered to be q fac
tor in law breaking as yet. He pointed
out that practically all of the robber-
les were committed by youths Of from
II to 25 years of age, period which
he explained, sociologists considered
as the most dangerous for the devel-
opment of criminal tendencies.
The Law Enforcement Association,
made up of 800 citizens, he said, is a
sort of modernization of the old time
vigilance committee, only that it
works entirely in cooperation with
the authorities. An outline of its
purposes includes advocacy of more
stringent criminal laws; following up
of arrests and seeing that the law
breakers are prosecuted; advising
with officials on pardons and paroles
and keeping a corps>-of investigators
constantly at work collecting data on
moral irregularities.
While the association is compare
lively young, Mr.. Clifford pointed out
that automobile thefts had been IRE
duced so per cent. A number of re-
wards also have been paid for the
capture of criminals, including $500
for the taking of Denzel Chester
charged with the murder of Miss
Florence Barton, young society gir
here last October. It was the sensa.
tion caused by Miss Barton's death
which resulted in the formation Of ths
enforcement association.
Mr.. Clifford admitted, however. that
the association had most of its work
ahead of it-that the curve IN the
crime scale still showed mmacine
upward trend.

AIR NAVIGATION WILL
REQUIRE AID OF SCIENTISTS

Washington. Feb. THE "ocean of
the air." which followers of aviation
believe some day will be filled with
great air liners plying their way from
city to city on regular schedules, must
be studies from a meteorological
standpoint and the whims and fancies
of the elements must be reduced to
easily understood data before the
dream of worldwide commercial avia-
ton can become a reality, according
to C. Leroy Meisinger, government
meteorologist here.
Mr.. Meisinger, in paper discussing
the effect of air conditions on COM
mercial aviation, says that meteorol-
ogy is the mainstay of aviation, re-
gardless of the confidence q pilot may
have in his motor and in his plane
The ocean of air." he says, con-
stantly is changing and does not con-
tain steadfast currents such as the
gulf stream and the Japan current
which are found in oceans Of water.
He points out that even the prevailing
belief that far above are strong west
erly winds which never change some
times is shocked by facts revealed
through scientific study of aerial con-
ditions.
Because of the constantly changing
condition of the aerial routes through
which the air liners of the future
would travel, Mr.. Meisinger declares
that before big commercial aviation
companies can operate on q large
scale, great masses of data on air con-
ditions at all times of the year, in al
places and under all circumstances
must be gathered. He suggests plac-
| ing consulting meteorologists on the
STATS of all aviation companies, these
men to study the air as it affects avis-
ton and to decide daily what altitude
and what route plane should take
from one city to another.
Air conditions are so changeable
Mr.. Neisinger says. that a plane tray-
cling between the same two points
might have to take a different route
almost every day in order to make the
trip with the least danger. Also, q
plane flying from New York to Chi
cago might find a certain route the
best, while one travelling from Chi
cago to New York on the same day
might find an entirely different route
more favorable
Some of the things which airplan<
dispatchers, or traffic managers, on
aerial commercial lines viii have tc
Consider, he says, are the speed and
direction of the wind IN the area TO be
ltrayersed, the frequency of low clouds
and fog, the frequency and intensity
of thunderstorms. the vertical temper.
ature distribution, the normal values
of precipitation at flying fields and
the effect of atmospheric pressure on
aerial instruments, particularly tho

The changing conditions m the an
make it impossible to gather the nee
essary information IN single path
