CALIFORNIAN TO
TAKE CRIME CURE
TO WORLD LEAGUE
Berkeley Police Chief Says
Severity viii Not Check
LaWlessneSS.

BERKELEY, Cal, June 29.-The
crime, named for its author, Chief
of Police August Vollmer Of this
college city, will be laid before the
League of Nations this Summer.
Chester Rowell has been named
chairman of the police committee of
the national crime commission.
Vollmer is the committees expert,
and when Roweli goes to Geneva
this summer he will take a report by
Vollmer on how to tackle the
worlds crime problem.
Crime will not be stamped out by
more laws, by cruelty or by repres.
sionary measures" said Vollmer,
who is former president of the In.
ternational Association of Police
Chiefs.
Against Severity
Briefly. crime can be conquered
only by the application of scientific
and humane methods to the problem
and of education to the masses.
Severity is not the answer. This be-
longs to past era. The modern
trend is all against it."
Vollmer's report deals only with
police aspects of, crime prevention
and cure. Here are the main changes
he demands:
/. A decided Improvement in the
personnel of the nations police
forces. The end of the "fiat-foot"
and the bull is already seen here,
where Vollmer has replaced them by
high-class men, SO per cent of whom
are college graduates. Vollmer says
policemen should be the most in
telligent officials in society and, as
big brothers, should be chief agents
for preventing crime.
Science Needed
2. The application of science to
crime detection, prevention and
cure. Vollmer wants more cooper
alton between police forces and the
colleges. the study of psychology,
sociology and material sciences, ex-
tension courses for policemen, police
training schools and other means of
making exact knowledge useful.
8. Better organization of depart.
ments to prevent duplication, ineffi-
cheney and graft.
a. A more modern equipment in
the police departments.
5. Coordination of city forces I'M
der State bureaus and the coordina-
ton of State bureaus under a ma
tional crime bureau.
Wants New Opinion
Back of this machinery Vollmer
wants a change of public opinion
toward the law and it's endorsements;
a reverse psychology from the
newspapers in handling crime sto-
ries so as to remove the attractive
ness Of criminal life intelligence by
the public as to the causes of crime
disease, poverty, lack Of home life.
too few play spaces, 2 maladiust-
nlents, etc.-and movements to i'm
prove these conditions.
Some million persons are arrest.
ed in America every year" he said.
Lets slow up on passing laws and
arresting people, and get down to
the cause. We must travel farther
upstream toward the sources of
crime"
