Crime Increases

SACRAMENTO. Cal, Aug. %. -
Crime increased in California last
wear, it is indicated in the annual
report of the state bureau of Grim
inal Identification made public here
today by superintendent G. s. Nor
rill.
In almost every line of criminal
activity substantial gains are shown
in the arrests made by police Of
ficcrs throughout the state.
During the year 81 persons were
Hrrestcd for murder as compared
with PA last year. The total ar
rests for the year was 25,CG2.
Merrill explains however, that
while the total rumbcr of murders in
1924 was greater than in 1923, com
pared with the increase in popula-
ton. murder actually decreased.
burglary heads the list of ar
rests, $3.50 persons having been ar
rested on this charge during the
year. A decrease in the number of
persons arrested for violating the
Iarcotic laws from ,12S in 1923 to
S74 in 1924. was due to the activity
of federal authorities in shutting off
sources Of supplies, Merrill stated.

MOVE STARTED TO
TAKE ROAD WORK
OUT OF POLITICS

The first definite action toward
removing the state highway system
from political control and placing it
ON purely engineering and eco
nomic basis came when a confer
encc was held by representatives of
the California State Automobile
Association and the Automobile
Club Of Southern California. A to-
tai of 10000 motorists are includ-
ed in the combined mem berships of
! these organizations, both of which
,are committed to the policy of good
{ roads, and each of which in its ac-
tivities covers one half of the state.
In his statement explaining his
disapproval of the gasoline bill
passed at the last session of the LEG
islature, Governor Richardson ex-
pressed the hope that the two great
motor clubs would assume 4he lead
ership in formulating a constructive
highway building program for the
benefit of the entire state. and it
was in response to this implied re-
Iquest that the joint committee met
Yesterday for prel; ninafY discuss
sion. 1t is expected that several
months will be required to evolve
definite, practical plan under which
the state may continue its highway
development under the best con-
ditions and at Il minimum of cX-
pcnsc 10 the tax payers.
Since the memorable battle over
the proposed increase If the gasolinr
tax for new highway construction in
voca:", state that there has been
a s. ing scn:,,or5 favorfpg
more business like policy in deter
mining on new roads TO be built
and a more equitable system of dis
triluting the cost. 1t is pointed
e,lt that 4 total of GO measures pro
vidi; for nnw state highways were
introduced IT, 'hc Legislature. ""l'
in" ?. ~ a,.dition of ] 5a1 miles
to the present highway system CT
$500 miles, less than half of which
has been completed. Most Of these
bills warn for roads of purely local
importancc. f is pointed out. and
had they not been vigorously OPP
posed, might have saddled tie tax
pavers with millions of debts for
highways Of little, if any, value to
the state system.
The strenuous fight oSa.nst th?se
methods held down the measures
passed to cigh+. ob'iga5ing tna state
to build only 293 miles of a1diiirnal
road. Nearly every railc of this IS
designed ia connect TIC California
highway system with tho stat" roads
in adjoining states. or to connect
