BERLIN POLICE "FESS UP"
Admit They Have Easier Time
Than u. S. Forces Have.

BERLIN, October ? CP).--Police Of
ficials admit that in comparison with
American metropolitan forces they
have an easy time. About 20 per cent
of German murderers, municipal re,
ports show, either commit suicide inn
mediately after their crimes or sur
render. Hence the proportion Of slay-
ings to be solved is small. Last year
there we're 6S murders in Berlin. Re
Gently police received a post card
signed Leo Blankenstein saying he
was wanted for embezZling 5000
marks and would return to Berlin on
a certain train. The incident was not
uncommon, and Blankenstein walked

TRACTION ACCOUNTS
CHANGE IS ORDERED
Utilities Commission Makes De-
probation Credit Systems
Uniform.

The Capital Traction Co. was order
ed by the Public Utilities Commission
yesterday to change its system Of ac
cruing depreciation SO that ii will con-
form to the method tentatively adopt
ed in the commissions valuation order
Of 1919. The order was issued as
result of a conference with officials
of the country.
In 1919. when the commission laid
down a rule for depreciation, various
terms of obsolescence We're fixed for the
respective items of the equipment Of
the car companies. which resulted in
a bookkeeping charge roughly averag
ing 252 per cent of the total value.
The same year, and again in 1920, the
Capital Traction CO. increa sed its de
probation reserve so that it finally be-
came about 3 per cent. The Wash
ingtOn Railway and Electric Co. made
no change in its system of accounting
for depreciation SO that the commits
sion's order makes the method of ac-
cruing depreciation uniform for the
two companies.
The order, it was explained, will
save large sum annually in operat-
Ing costs besides tending toward
uniform accounting with view to.
ward paving the way for a merger OF
the two companies.
