EFFICIENCY IN U. S.
FINGER PRINT SYSTEM

Finger print identification has
been developed by the army to the
point of efficiency where its applica-
ton at times vies with the thrill of
detective fiction. Any unidentified
man who has served in the regular
army can be located in from 10 to 20
minutes, and his full record laid bare,
In that short time searcher finds
him among more than 100000 men
who have been in the army since 1906,
when the finger print system was in
troduced He may have been one of
the 5o,328 Smiths, the 40,101 John
sons, the 28,902 Browns, or one of the
27,938 named Williams. All the army
needs is his finger print to turn up
his record.
