All Dangerous

This is the first step in a scien-
tifc drive on the criminal class in
Los Angeles" said Chief of Police
r. Lee Heath. 1T is the first ven
ture in our broadened policy Of
crime prevention, as against crime
cure.
Every person with a disOrdered
mind is in some degree dangerous,
either to society or himself And the
report of our investigators shows
that probably a big majority of
chronic nut letter writer's are men
tally unsound.
The cunning Of the insane has
often kept them beyond detection in
actual circumstance. But with a
corps of trained psychiatrists Of the
Southern California Academy OF
Criminology- TO examine suspects, we
are more than likely to clear up GER
tain bizarre mysteries"
Dr. Thomas Orbison is chairman
Of the oommitte Of psychiatrists
which has already recommended the
examination of at least 1000 letter
writer's This committee has before
it some 1000 epistles received by the
police within the past few years.
Only Dozen Harmless
"Of the first 400 scrutinized." said
DR.. Orbison. there were less than
dozen whose authors might be con-
sidered absolutely harmless. The ar
rest and trial for insanity Of the
others has been recommended.
"A very high percentage Of the
writer's show paranoical symptoms.
They suffer from the decisions Of
persecution. They are dangerous be-
cause they are apt to kill any one
they suspect Of being a nemesis.
"A good percentage exhibit de-
mentia praecox-the delusion OF
grandeur. They take on magnifi-
cent airs. and they too may kill in
the belief that FOWLER persons have
offended their high dignity.
'StiH another group are the
threateners, the accusers, perpetu-
ally bullyragging public officials
with imaginary grievances.
"a few are religious fanatics,
swept away in uncomfortable Ella
tons of melancholy, the maniac-de-
pressives Nearly all identify them
selves by name and address and are
usually easily traced"
Che loved Chiefs
One of the cases cited as ex-
amples by Police Chief Heath is that
of the Hollywood woman who has
written ardent love letters to every
police chief of Los Angeles for
years. She was only recently iden-
titled and placed in an asylum.
"She addressed each chief by
name and marked her enormous bill
let's, 'Rush-Important Police Bust
ness-Personal.' says Heath. Her
letters showed strange literary flair
and torrid emotional nature. She
would confess the maddest infatua-
ton, describe herself as ravishingly
beautiful, slender, rich and vampish.
All this was coupled with a religious
mania.
When her language finally war
ranted psyciatric examination, she
was discovered to be a huge, blond
servant girl with innocent blue eyes,
and far from vampish or beautiful.
She had worked as a maid and
sclIIIioy, in a HOLLYWOOD hotel"

THANKS U. 5. FOR
 GOOD INFLUENCE
Macdonald Feels American Sen,
 tinent Has Helped

By Tho Associated Press.
 London, July 14,--The fact that the experts committee had been ap- pointed and that Americans were present as members Of tbe commit tee had undoubtedly contributed to the possibility of beginning afresh friendly or any rate moro friendly re- lations between Great Britain and France, Prime Minister Macdonald declared in the house of commons to- day.
 Mr. Mcdonald in the course. of debate on the Hawes plan and the coming allied conference, which was postponed from last week, remarked that the experts committee was in- herited by the present government and then added that there was no doubt in his mind of the bensfcent effect Of the committees work.
 The prime minister said that he had gathered from conversations in Paris with Premier Herriot of France and others that if an American were ap- pointed to the reparation commission 10 safeguard the creditors of the 4o,- oos,oo0 pound loan to Germany, France would undoubtedly insist upon an extra appointment to the commits sion.

SH0PCRAFTS LOSE
 SUIT AGAINST K. R.
Court Finds They Did Not Prove
 Conspiracy Charge

Philadelphia. July li,-The United States circuit court of appeals today dismissed equity suits instituted by system Federation No, 90, of shop craftsmen and the organization of clerks against the Pennsylvania rails road for lha enforcement of wage increase and working condition de- eislOns Of The United States railroad labor board, on Inc grounds that ihe charge of conspiracy made in the suits had not been proved against the carrier,
 The suit of the shop crafts federal lion was for claim Of sl6,plD, ,N00 back pay which, it asserted was due under decision of the railroad labor board, The sum was said 10 be based on the difference between the difference between the scale fixed in the national agreement made by the railroad administration during the war. and fpe scale paid by the com pany after ihe railroads were re- turned to private ownership. >
 The appellate courts action cons ilrmed that of Judge Dickinson. who dismissed the suits in the federal dis lrict court several months ago on the ground that the courts had no juris- diction to enforce decisions of the labor board.
 Claiming they were not seeking en- forcenent Of the railroad labor boards decision, The organizations as- serted they were basing their action on charge that the company and It's officers were In conspiracy 10 deprive them of their "civil and rights" as defined in the act.
 The practical effect Of a decision 'avorable 10 the employees oreaniza- ions. however. would be to declare he labor boards decision enforce lble. ihe courts opinion stated
 This is an instance" the opinions aid, where the machinery which he congress set up did not work trough to final decision and resulted | n no punishment except that of public opinion directed against the "by the announcement Of he labor board that the company had | efused 10 obey its rulings which we're favorable to the employees.

HIGH PRICES FOR
 WHEAT ARE MADE
Canadian Crop Failure Is Fore.
 cast in Chicago

Chicago, July 14.--Abnormaly dry weather in Canada attracted such at- tention to wheat on the Chicago board of trade today that all high price rec ords for the season were broken and talk was current that large part of the wheat which it was expected would come here from the southwest, would be diverted to foreign outlets by way of the Gulf of Mexico.
 Reports were at hand that even with the best of conditions for the remainder of the season, much of the Canadian crop would fail to yield more than 10 bushels an acre and would be almost a total failure if rain was further delayed. In this connection. some estimates of the 1924 world production of wheat. in- cluding Canada. pointed to. a short age of 10 per cent compared with last year
 Chicago prices Of some future de- liberies of wheat showed fully three cents bushel advance today since Saturday. May. the most distant month traded in, reached SIPS 5-S today against SIPS 5-s. Saturdays final figures. Foreigners led the buy ing. which was of decidedly active character, .t,@
 Nearby deliveries of corn were also lifted to the top-most prices this sea- son. z.. .t s.

Thence they will fly to Petropavlovsk, on the western coast of the kamohatka Pen insula, to BehriDg island, Copper island and Attu. Except Attu, all these stops are in Russian territory.

COPPERNOLL IS CONFIDENT

A letter was received on this boat from Judeg Wm. D. Coppernoll, who at present is in Juneau, stating that ne had been assured of good support in the First division, but that the present attorney general was backed strongly by Delegate Sutherland and the Indian vote, and that his majority depended largely on the latter vote. MT. Coppernoll stated that if Rust gard did not beat him more than 200 to 300 in the First that he Copper lClD would be elected, but if the del cgate's influence carried much weight that Rustgard might carry the First by more. He says the sole doubt lies in the Indian vote. Some estimate it at 400 and others from 700 to 800. The question remains whether or not the whites or the ScandinaVians and In dians or to predOminate.
 Judge Coppernoll will leave for Skagway and Wrangell on April 8th. He will reach Ketchikan about the 18th and will remain there until after the primaries.
 Judge Copparnoll says he will get a good majority in Ketchik2n.
