COLLEGE FOR POLICEMEN

Cleveland College plans special course for men,
bers of the police force Among the subjects offered
will be law psychology, foreign languages chemistry
iiu jitsu, methods Of searching prisoner, how to
shadow and row to preserve evidence.
The idea is to help the ADLER policemen to achieve
higher degree OF skill and reach the top in their line
Of work. 1t should improve a whole department, too
to have many of its members advancing themselves in
this way.
In announcing the new course of instruction in CIeve-
land IS explained that other cities in other countries
have special schools fer police officers Scotland Yard
which Is really most efficient organization in spite
OF detective yarns to the contrary has such school,
with broad course lasting year, which ali candidates
Tor the force must pass Paris and Berlin police too,
receive special training
The police departments OF many American cities re
ceve good deal g criticism from time to time for
compIshment and efficiency. But there undoubtedly
has been too much Of the opposite qualities. Possibly
greater opportunity for special study will make for
keener competition in excellence and improve police
work in general.

Interest.

Mark Washburn returned to FL

he attended the Elk s Convention at
Cincinnati and visited the principal
cities of the east and middle west, rs

have come back here more than ever
convinced that Imperial Valley is
enc Of the favored spots in the
United States. If times are a little
hard here it is safe to say they are
worse elsewhere.
Speaking of the Elk S convention,
which was one of the reasons for
the trip, Washburn said that he
joined the Southern California spec
ial train at Los Angeles and made
the trip to Cincinnati with it. At
salt Lake the Northern and South
crn California specials were con
soldated, making a 4 car special
which made the trip straight
through, the only stops being Salt
Lake, Denver, and Chicago in each
of which places the delegates were
entertained by the local lodges.

scheduled it very obligingly stopped

"go-between" for former Crown Prince
Carol.
Certain documents as made public
by the government show that
Manoilescu began his activities in
favor of Carol on July IS, two days
before the death of King Ferdinand.
That day he wrote in his diary:

The diary also indicates that
Maaoilescu intended to establish a
newspaper entitled Craig Nou'--
which might be interpreted as THE
New King'-to voice the unspoken
wishes of the Rumanian people.
Referring to documents not vet
made public, the government state
ment says that Manoilescu and his
adherents intended to begin execution
of his conspiracy to restore Carol this
Autumn, after they had obtained GER
tain information and orders from
Paris. A secret code was found on
Manoilescu when he was arrested
