Relentless Prosecution and Serere Punishment
VIII Check Crime Increase, Says E. A. St. John
Alarming Growth of Burglary
and ENFORCEMENT calls for
Greater Cooperative Effort.

IT NCIAL crimes have
II increased alarmingly since
1913" says e. A. St. John,
president Of the National Surety
Company Of New York
Losses paid by group of surety
and burglary insurance companies
in 1918 totaled $3,32s, 7S9. These
same companies in 1923 paid losses
of s2o,sl2.7o6. and will pay as much,
or more, in 1924. Our own share in
1923 was S7,e17,o5l-the largest Of
any single company. In IS years
we have paid in losses $4o,ooo, 900.
If the crime wave IS to be checked
employers, public prosecutors and
magistrates must join in q cam
paign for relentless prosecution Of
the criminal and severer prison sen
fences.
Financial and commercial insti-
tutions must increase protection Of
messengers and funds; must be more
careful in selecting new employees;
must watch even old and trusted
employees and install better systems
of accounts and checking.
Citizens and public oi6eials must
insist upon honesty courses in the
public schools.
Magistrates must increase respect
for the law by imposing more
severe sentences.
Surety companies must seek to
punish more severely the unfaithful
bonded man - they should do, as
this company has done-make the
punishment fit the crime.
while these measures will not end
burglary and embezzlement they
will prevent their increase. and
shaald greatly lessen the yearly
loss"

Just why summertime is mistake

this: the light falls upon our face
which reflects a part of the light

THE CEILING FIXTURE
The fixture that is selected for
the center Of the ceiling should
provide enough general lighting all
over the room for ordinary use
of the room, To protect the eyes,
it must be shaded in such way
that the eyes of a person lying IN
