FEDERAL POLICE BUREAU
is NOW PROPOSED
Daily Letter by Frederic j. Haskin

WASHINGTON, Jan. :s.--Should
a bill recently introduced by Sena-
! tor Calder of New York become law,
! Washington would be the headquar-
| ters of the world for police news and
| for Information concerning all that
| elusive but extensive population
known as the underworld. The bill
provides for the establishment by the
United States Government of ma
tional police bureau and its chief
purpose would be, first, to compile
information on the criminals of the
whole world, and, in natural course
of operation to keep track of their
movements.
No student, disciple or admirer of
Sherlock Holmes is ignorant of
Scotland Yard, the police headquar-
ters of Great Britain. This has been
the worlds greatest police agency
but should the Congress enact the
Calder bill bureau would be set up
at Washington which in all probable
ity y ould dwarf the Scotland Yard
headquarters.
Scotland Yard is famous because
the British dominions extend beyond
every sea, yet the Yard is not pri-
marily q world police bureau. 1t is
lice bureau to be set UP at Washing
ton would be charged especially with
the task of keeping records of all
criminals no matter whether within
or without American territory or
! possessions.
| The bill appropriates $150,OOO to
establish the bureau and presumably,
! should it be established, an equal
amount or probably considerably
more would be appropriated each
| year for its maintenance and expan-
sion.
Washington then would be the
mecca OF students of crime and OF
| searchers after exciting data for spy
and detective stories.
! The World War brought about re-
newed interest in the various phases
| OF crime. The existing police au-
| thorities learned many facts of ut
most importance and new agencies
such as the special Army intelligence
service and the Navy intelligence
| service, organized or at least greatly
! enlarged as a result OF the war
| gathered much valuable data.
There were two outstanding move
ments of extreme Importance which
were noted by the police, both move
ments arising directly from war.
| Nativity of American Criminals
| First, large percentage of Amer
| lean criminals are foreigners. Some
are naturalized Americans but OF
| foreign birth, that is, hyphenates
| Others merely are residents who re-
| tain foreign allegiance. The reader
| of newspapers will recall how many
| times. in connection with reports o1
crimes, he sees unfamiliar. foreign
| sounding names. AS an instance, this

they would be adequate for these pur-
poses, for many generations, but If
needless waste by fire is permitted,
they will soon be inadequate to the
nations needs. In an age when an
ever-increasing number of our people
are so employed that they do not come
in contact with the great outdoors, IT
becomes more and more necessary
that we direct public attention to the
Importance of perpetuating our for

some difference arose between the

possibly the style of constructing

Recognizing that the forests are es-
sential to the states industrial and
commercial life, Governor j. A. O..
Preus, in a proclamation, calls upon
all citizens of the state to observe
April 9th as Arbor and Bird Day by
planting a tree, some shrubbery and
flowers.
The governor says that the people
of Minnesota should heed the message
of President Harding requesting that
teachers, officers of public institutions,
commercial and other associations,
and the press, unite in thought and eff
fort for the preservation of the ma
tons forests by holding appropriate
exercises during the week of April
22nd. The governors proclamation
follows:
"a long established custom very
appropriately DEGREES that we shall
set aside one day each year for spec
ial thought to the planting of trees,
for study of their relation to public
welfare, and for attention to the
feathered songsters which inhab;t
them.
Therefore, l, J. A. o. Preus, Gov
ernor of Minnesota, do hereby design
