Only sixteen per cent of murder

Further figures from the survey
placed the punishment after rob.

In Kansas City, he said, twelve

burglaries, two per cent.
Robbery by Juvenile delinq uents in
st. Louis increased from 1920 to 1924

declared.
I'm st. Louis between October,
1923, and October, 1924, l49 cases
Of murder and manslaughter were
reported by the police to the
states attorney, who acts there
without a grand jury; but in these
cases, on account Of the failure Of
the notice to identify and arrest the
suspect, only So warrants were APP
piled for. Four of the warrants were
refused, evidently because Of the in
sufficiency Of the evidence, and ut
the trials there were only 25 convic-
lions.
IN the other offcnses the differ
ence between the reported offenses
and the arrests and convictions is
even more startling. In the case Of

were reported to the police, 266 war
rants were applied for. 40 were re-
fused. and there were onlv 1O7 con-
sictions. OF robberies, POTS were re-

and only IS persons were convicted.
The other crimes were in like pro-

In all there were l3.444 major

So she does It. It's much easier
for her than for q congressman's

chocolate, and discuss husbands and
things, they're just too silly to think
it, that's all!
What she really means is that she
belongs to one of the very few clubs
in the country Of which the First
Lady is member. And the sena-
tors wife never foreets it.
Meet In Senate Office Building
Every Tuesday. God willing and
nothing interfering, the senator's
wives lunch and gossip with the
First Lady.
The Senate Ladies' Luncheon club
meets promptly at ! p. m. each

ing. just to the right Of the capitol
where the senate husbands toll and
delve for their country.
The senate wives are supposed to
be there before the appointed hour
For the law of the Washington Modes
and Persians reads that underlings
must be in their places before the
First Lady appears.

little fussy matters.
There was the matter of making
reservations for the luncheon. Once
upon time it was necessary for
the senator's wife to take her pen
in hand and write a very formal re-
greet or acceptance in best Emily
Post manner.

So the ten hOstesses for each fes-

from one end of the table to the
other, a la best boarding house style.
The First Lady often walks from
the White House to the luncheon
tryst. Her special secret service
man, handsome Jim Haley, tries to
keep up her pace. Handsome Jim
is left outside the door, however.
and the First Lady enters unan-
nounced and unescorted.
The boys around town have lots
of fun, it seems, with Jim Haley.
He boasts that he has become a con
noisseur Of wares in ladies' shops. as
his job partly consists in chaperOn-
ing the First Lady when she shops.
They tell tales on Jim to the ef-
feet that when he, escorts Mrs. Cool

is quite likely that the viands are
sent by special delivery rather than
BY the aide from the White House
Kitchen.
That Kiss
Once upon Il time senator's wives
were permitted an occasional guest
ut the luncheon meetings. But no
longer. Not since Mrs. Coolidge was
kissed.
The kisser was the senator's visit
ing mother-in-law.
Perhaps she was awed and hys-
| terical at the idea of meeting the
First Lady. Perhaps her act was the
| result of sheer relief ut learning
how easy it is to meet Mrs. Coolidge.
Perhaps she merely wanted to tell
that she had kissed the presidents
wife, for kiss Mrs. Coolidge she did
not just a dab at the cheek, either,
but Il real kiss right on the mouth.
