DEMANDS
WEAKEN POWER,
POLICE HEAD SAYS
Patrol Force Has Not Grown
With Increased Crime
Problem, Report Shows.

Police Chief Herman Rikhoh today
gave out figures showing the police
force has remained comparatively
static while need for police protection
has increased by leaps and bounds.
He is asking for 100 more men.
Twenty-Five men have been added
since 1921 The increase of SO 900
automobile owners alone would absorb
the time of these men. the report says.
Population estimate has increased
from 335260 to 360.217 and several
square miles have been added to the
city's area.
Protection demands from these
sources reveal the inadequacy Of the
force. the report says.
The automobile equipment of the
department has been increased, the
duties OF the liquor squads have be
come more numerous, street traffic
has increased and the accident pre-
vention bureau has been established
Patrol Force Suffers
These departments must take men
from the patrol force. weakening one

ing emergencies from the other, Rik
hoff says.
Two hundred and thirteen patrol
men are assigned to ffty-nine dis
tricts in four shifts The daily aver
age sick list is twelve. and the daily
average special detail for sporting
events. parks, parades, etc, is twelve.
Can't Keep Up With Crimo
The demands of special details, in
creased traffic. prohibition. and acct
dent prevention have drained the force
according TO Rikhoff. to a point
where it is impossible to cope with
the crime wave.
Yet taxpayers ask for extra details
and expect protection in other quar-
ters at the same time Rikhoff said.

GROW, DON'T SWELL

In a recent address, DIR. Murray Bartlett president of Hobart college
at Lake Placid Club, Lake Placid, New York, emphasized eight points as
important qualifications for a successful executive.
Four of his points had to do with intellectual qualifications and ae:
l. Observations: the ability to take notice of passing events.
g Concentrations: to focus ones min on the point of ISSUE and elm
mate noneSentials.
{. Independent thinking: the ability to arrive a conclusions a S a re-
suit of your W observations o. conditions.
a The expression of thought in clear and logical language.
His other four points which relate to moral qualifications of an ex
ecuive are
l. Self control, or the ability to prevent ones personal prejudices in
making decisions on important matters.
2 Honesty, which mean tuthfulness in business affairs and fair deal
ing with those with whom we con in contact.
g. Sympathy, the ability to understand the feelings, expressions or
proposals of those with whom we % in contact.
4 Service, doing something for the community II humanity that makes
the world a better place in which to live.
A man who a live up to Dr.. Bartetts qualifications for leadership
would be a fine teacher for young people, a minister of great influence in q
church o. n executive who would guide safely the affairs of a great corpora
ton
1t has been remarked that the Cloak of authority causes son po-
pie to grow, others merely to swell. DIR. Baruetts eight points, if followed
should eliminate the swelling process-The Manufacturer.

ACCOUNTS LESS Than S100
ARE NUISANCE TO BANKS

The small account is what worries
the banker. He knows how to take
care of the larger ones-and make
them pay.
But when 1t ONE to the little fell
low who opens a checking account
with $50 and thereafter maintains n
balance not to exceed $40 and re-
quires the while more bookkeeping
than the 100000 average balance ac-
count, that is a difficult problem. Ev.
cry banker knows it.
There is no money in the small ac-
counts, the bankers agree. Why do
they persist in them, then? the out
slider asks.
And the banker shakes his head and
knowingly replies, "You can't tell
what those accounts will one day
amount to-"
That is true. Any banker who has
been long in the business will tell you
that some of his best accounts started
from small beginnings, and were per-
haps improbable for years and years.
Now, this is the bankers q~uandary:
If he discourages the little accounts
and refuses them, they will go some
where else. And when the time comes
the other bank will reap the benefits.
On the other hand, il he encourages
them, and let's them have full use of
free privileges, though Mt loss to him
self, one can see that while some of
these small accounts will grow big,
the majority of them will remain
small and be n source of loss to the
bank rs long as they are on the books.
What is the banker to do?
Shall he maintain the small ac-
counts ut n loss on the strength that
q few will develop enough to pay for
the others?
That is all right; the law Of aver
ages over n period of years might OBJ
tain. But il is indefinite. 1t isn't bus
mess. II is guesswork.
Over this question many hours of
sleep have been lost. II is a real con-
sideration, especially in n large city
where there are so many trancient ac-
counts.
The banks are actual losing mon
ey on the majority of their small ac-
counts, without hope of ever making
IL back.
What Is the answer? How can this
be eliminated
The bankers found that organiza-
tion was the only way TO combat the
evil. IL one bank refuses small ac-
counts. or charged n service say of
30 cents n month on them, and none

If the United States Forest Ser
vice can be induced to build 8 miles
of road through Clarks Fork canyon
near Painter, Wyoming, it will give
Billings and Cody, Wyoming, and all
points east and south another route
to the Yellowstone National park, ac-
cording to A. E. Evans, a cattleman
of the Sunlight basin, located in the
Clarks Fork country of northern Wy
oming. Opening this piece of road,
he says, would give Billings a short
cut to Cooke City, near the northeast
corner of the park, and he say would
open to general tourist travel what
he declares is the most scenic section
of America.
Sunlight basin is now cut off from
the rest of the world by Dead Indian
hill on n side and Bald Ridge on the
other, two hills which automobiles do
not a to tackle. If the road were

these hills would be eliminated and

deposits while the other gained them.
That was unjust.
/. But if all the banks in a given city
set up standards and stuck to them,
not relenting, not swerving from rules
once laid down, it changed the en-
tire situation.
And thus it has been worked out in
many cities; and thus it is being
worked out in many more; and thus
in time it will be worked out in prac-
tically every bank in the country-if
the words of experts on bank admin
istration are to be believed.
The ordinary way is for the banks
to agree and to give notice that after
a certain date n service charge will
be placed on all accounts that do not
average a certain amount.
Usually the amount is 500; usual
ly the service charge is so cents a
month.
This has been worked out for sew
eral years now, and from reports of
its operation in most parts of the
country it is the most satisfactory
way that might be devised.
As to how they practically work
out, let us look to facts:
In Minneapolis the Clearing House
gave notice that after n certain date
30 cents service charge would be
placed on accounts under 800.
One bank reported a loss of 40 per
cent Of its accounts under 100. II
continued TO charge so cents n month
on 60 per cent of the small accounts.
There were no drones. Every ac-
count carried itself. And on the ma
jority Of its business the bank actual
ly made money. At n general meet
ing of the Minneapolis banks II was
unanimously expressed that the sys-
TEN was satisfactory.
A bank in Indiana started TO find
out something about its costs, insti-
tuted n cost system. The estimated
charge Of carrying n account it
found to be $500 n year. That opened
the officers eyes.
They placed n 50-cent service
charge, and in one year weeded out
500 improbable accounts. In some
cases the small balances were trans
ferred to savings accounts, where
they were profitable at least.
Out in Iowa they tried Il out; and
one bank found that out of 1920 to-
tai checking accounts, 700 averaged
between $50 and 800, while, 1,aO0
averaged less than $50; that 103
checks n year were drawn ngainst
each account, on an average; that IL
cost them s7.49 per year to carry an
account.

E. Phillips Oppenhein,

Although he Is an Engllshman and
makes his home exclusively In his own
country. he may be styled an interna-
tional novelist, for he undoubtedly has
as many readers in America as across

about as great in this country as that
of any n of our native writers.
II the average British novelist were
as wise as Oppenheim In the tastes of
his public and did not fill his books
with 80 much about tea, tennis and
domestic infidelities. he might also be
as popular Mt home and abroad. Op-
penheim Is modern enough. especial
ly when treating Of the modern girl,
but he sticks mostly to the old stand

mystery and as a proof that 1t pays,
may be cited the fact that he Is au-

Automobiles Destroying Wild Life

That fifty per cent of the wild denizens of field and woodland
will have paid with their life this year, because of the use of the au-
tomoble in hunting, is the statement of DIR. William T. Hornaday
of New York City. That is to say, the modern hunter can easily
cover more territory than could be covered by the hunter who was
afoot or followed after a horse. DR.. Hornaday says that four times
the former are can be covered by the automobile hunter. The
distinguished director of the New York Geological Garden thinks
that our wild game is doomed unless protective measures are
adopted.
In addition to protective legislation, Dr.. Hornaday would call
on the good craftsmanship of the hunter. Let the hunter go slow
and take a reasonable tool, recognizing the peril to wild life. He ap-
peals to the sentiment of self -interest. Otherwise legislation will
not be able to preserve the birds of the air and the beasts of the
field that have so long made this country of ours a hunters paradise.

The call S. o. S. used by ships at

combination of dots and dashes which
make it distinctive above all other
calls. 1t consists of three dots, space,
three dashes, space, and three more

One of the worst insect pest that
ever got into this country is the Jap

on the leaves of fruit trees, vines and
cornstalks and is spreading very rap

have grown so dense that during fruit
time the orchards have the appear

swarms. They are a brilliant irrides-
