The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-11
By ELLIS IT. MARTIN. International News Service.

: San Francisco, Aug. 1.-The United States not only far outranlks every other civilized country in the com mission of crimes, but now there is less respect for law than in any place on the face of the globe and lawless- ness is growing
 Actual disrespect for the law is manifest in all classes Of cltlzenry and crime flOur1SheS because crln- inals escapep unishment.
 That is the indictment of 1awleSs- ness handed down by the speclal com mittee on law enforceInent ana pre- sented at today's session or the Amer jean Bar Association.
 - Lawyers gathered here from all sec tions of the country heard from Judge William B. Swaney, of Chattanooga, Tenn, chairman of the crime lnvestl- gating committee, that one serious obstacle to the enforcement Of cr1m- fnal law arises from the unfrlendly attitude of the law-abiding citizen when called upon to aid in its actual administration.
 .Tf1e. American temperament ad- justs itself to sympathy with the ac- cused and a corresponding disregard for the rights of the public" the com nittee report said. "In many cases where much public feeling is aroused, the man of affairs too often deserts the cause of iustfce.'
 Unable to Curb Crime
 Means of coping with crime and criminals in the United States are neither adequate nor efficient, the committee declared. In addition it reported discouraging dearth of of ficiaI information upon the criminal situation. In this respect the United States is found to be far behind every other country.
 Criminals number less than one one ana this of nuber nhf Tnf1e na est offenders.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-11

PY good fortune the old word D "wire1ess" has now given way to "radio." a shorter and more accurate term. The amateur would have changed it anyway long before this because he is coming to a full realization of what an endless amount of wire is needed to operate aSreally eff tlcient "wireless" set.
 The amateursas well$as the@pro- ifessional finds himself working kith a maze of copper. wires and brass posts, plugs, and bases. The head phones for instance have con- ceaIed in their covering a mile of enameled copper wire with a diameter ahoutt-the size of shu- nan hair. x. -ss~
 It is in theaantennaet or aerials for;radie telephony that copper is of the greatest use. Probably in no other service is copper sub iected to more critical test and, in addition to providing unequaIled conductivityw it is most need ed, copper also permanently re- lists corresion and furnishes the necessary tensile strength
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-11

to resist the wind and its own weight. Attempts to substitute aluminium have met with little suc- cess because it lacks strength. And so called Cooper clad" wire, which is steel wire covered with copper, gives only about forty per ceut zas much conductivity as real copper wire.
 Experiments by the U. S. Bu- reau of. Standards have led to the conclusion that No. 14 or No. 16 bare copper wire is the best. For large antennae phosphor bronze made with seven strands of No. 20 or No. 22 wire is most satis- factory. This strand construction absorbs considerable stress and minirnizes stretching.
 The Elettra, Marconi's radio ship, is a good example of the use of copper, brass and bronze where the best radio results are successfully sought. Quite aside from the lavish use of rustless ma terial ill the construction of the ship itself the Elettra is equipped with radio room that bristles with these radio metals.

America First True When It
 Comes To Crimes, Enforcement
 Committee Says At Convention

All crimes have increased until, the committee reported, tour situation to- day appears as bad as that of Eng land, France. Italy and Spain as late as 1887. as portrayed by Lord Bowen.
 Our regrettable eminence is due in most part to crimes of violence against the person or property. In 1910 out of the $500 confined in our State and Federal prisons, 15,316. or more than 25 per cent. of all prison CTS, had committed hon1icides. While of course this number includes the accumulation of years, this awful fact still bears it's own significance.
 'The evidence bsfore us shows that there has been since 1910 a steady and terrible increase not only of hom- icides but also in burglaries and rob berries. One State has in its different prisons 3,547 inmates; of these 1,429 are guilty of taking the lives of hu- man beings
 An idea of the criminal situation showing honicides incarcerated Jan uary l last is given by the committee in the following ia ab1e-
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-11

strates that the morals of this coun- try are better than in any other of, the large countries of the world. The morality of the country is higher, the lives of it's citizens are cleaner, of fenss against women and children are less frequent and more universally ab- horred.'
 The steady and growing disrespect for the law is not attributable to the war, the associations investigating committee finds.
 Proportional Increase Small
 We do not find the proportional increase in crime from 1916 to 1922 greater than from 1910 to 1916, and we have not been able to discover
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-11
Another outstanding

Another outstanding recommends ion of the committee is that the man ufacture and sale of pistols, with which over 90 per cent. of the mur- derS in the country are committed, and of cartridges or ammunition be absolutely prohibited save as such manufacture shall be necessary for governmental and official use under proper regulation and control"
 Court delays accrue to the benefit of criminals only and should be cor rected, the committee reported, In this connection it recommended that the State l,e given every right now enjoyed by a defendant to appeal; to amend tho indictment: that there be

but one appeal from a judgment or
 conviction in the trial court and that there be enacted legislation limiting courts may hold under advisement dilatcry motions made in criminal trials.
 Other recommendations made by the committee follow: That laws now existing in some States making the jury final judge lof the law and of the facts be re- pea1ed.
 | That further legislation be enacted by Congress to punish and prevent Iynching and mob violence. That more stringent laws limiting

DEPORTATION CASE
PROBE CONCLUDED

It is now up to federal authori-
ties at Washington to decide
whether Claus Martens, under ar
rest in Tonopah as a radical agi-
tator. shall be depOrted. Secret
operatives of the department OF JUS
tice sent to Tonopah to investigate
the case have submitted their report
which is understood to incorporate a
recommendation by Frank 7. Dunn,
district attorney OF Nye county, that
Martens be deported as an undesir'
abe alien.
The investigation disclosed that
Martens. who was born IN Germany
came to the United States in 1907
but made no effort to acquire Ameri-
can citizenship until 1919, when he
declared his intention in San Fran
cisco. Martens was commissioned as
a delegate and organizer OF the In
dustrlal Workers of the World IN
June Of this year. Records found in
his possession show that he enrolled
several men as members Of the organ
ization at Tonopah during the last
few months.

MIGHTY HUNTERS HAVE

After five days Of strenuousness
that do not fall to the lot of the
average person, a party Of hunters
consisting of E. w. Blair cashier Of
he Tonopah Banking corporation; j.
e. Thompson, well-known attorney;
W. E. Devan, Reno banker, and w. NJ
Waddell New York broker, arrived
home last night. The trip took them
beyond Fish Lake valley into the
mountainous wilds and although only
one buck was secured, each and
every member participating in the
hunt thoroughly enjoyed himself. The
crack shot was j. E. Thompson and
his prize weighed exactly lie pounds
at was great sport" remarked Mr.
Waddell, who has fallen in love with
the west, "and it's me for the wild
and woo,ly henceforth. No one in
the east really knows what real
scenery is unless they have been to
hat section where we staged the
hunt"
Mr. Waddell, who is here in the
interests of the New Gibraltar Mining
company, did not relate of his horse
back experience, but his friends tel

after the long ride. He was moving
slowly along on the gentle animal"
with the reins loose when he acct
dentally kicked the horse in the

members OF the party to overtake

saddle, however, and now feels he

The party has the distinction of

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18.-Selec-

probable that the Bear team again
will be in the New Year day game,
although there is a chance that some
other conference team viii nose out
the Berkeley eleven for the honors
The western team will b named
by the conference as soon as the
football sason is advanced far enough
to permit officials to pick a repre-
sentative eleven. To date California
appears to have the same drive that
carried 1t to the championships OF
1920 and 1921 and already Beal

third pennant year.
Penn State, it is said, probably will
represent the east, although no def

Penn State is coached by Hugo Bee.

list Of counties it is shown that Nye
county taxpayers pay the highest

of Ormsby county. Nye county tax
is 2.51 mills, which would bring the
