CHICACOCOPS
ARE HEB BEST,
Chief THINKS
Scotland Yard, Despite
Fame, Rank Anna
tours, Hughes Says
After R-ading Book

CHICAGO. July 23.-R1-Commis-
sioner Of Police Hughes believes Scot
land Yards famous detective forces
would be cas- helpless as rank ANA
teurs IL they were moved into Chica-
90 to suppress crime.
Il could name 20 Of our men who
could accomplish more in a given
time than 100 OF the best men Of the
yard" he said last night after perus-
ing a history of the Scotland Yard
force and its accomplishments.
Commissioner Hughes was appoint
ed by Mayor Thompson after a uc-
cessful mayoralty campaign which
claimed international attention be-
cause OF Thompson's attacks on
king George Of England During
the campaign, the mayor urged the
voters to elect him so he could
bust King George on the snout'
and Dust King George from the Chi
cago public school system"
Following his election, the mayor
was instrumental in ousting William
McAndrew, to whom he referred as
"a stool pigeon OF King George"
from the SUPPLEMENTARY Of schools
here.
Discussing the comparative merits
Of the Chicago and Scotland Yard
sleuths, the police commissioner
said: "We have an entirely different
situation TO contend with, handicaps
that we cannot overcome, but have
70 meet every day. To begin with
there are more than so racial groups
in Chicago, each with It's own Gus
toms and attitude toward the gener-
al scheme Of things. Over In England
the population is overwhelmingly
English.
Anyone convicted Of murder in
England is hanged within three
weeks. Here the murderer is first
convicted, then he gets a delay TO
have his case appealed, he has his
execution deferred pending a rehear-
ing, next ID Is postponed to examine
him as to his insanity, later he might
win a new trial on some technicality
and finally he either Is acquitted or
his sentence is changed to a few
years in the pen~itentiary.
That difference has a tremendous
bearing on crime and criminals.
There are scores OF such contrasts I
could cite. IL is really a wonder the
police accomplish as much as they do
with so many overwhelming obstacles
In their way"

Avera.e American Pay Less
Tlan $50 Per Week

$24.03 a week at the end of 1927, 10
per cent less than at the peak in 1920
but 1910 more than in 1914. Skilled
men averaged $1,000 in the last quart
er of 1927, 91a@ below the peak but
1860 above 1914.
The average weekly wages of un-
skilled male workers vary from $13. 16
in southern cotton mills up to $29.28
in the chemical industry while those
of semiskilled and skilled workers
range from $18.87 in southern cotton
mills up to $44.44 in newspaper print
ing. The range of variation in both
groups is so great that in many in
stances the average unskilled worker
in one industry receives more than the
average skilled worker in another.
In the cotton industry taken by it.
self unskilled men in northern mills
average $19.96 compared with only
1887 for the skilled brothers in the
south. In one industry skilled wages
are nearly double those of unskilled
workers. In another there is less
than 50 week difference between
them. In many industries the auto
matte machine is steadily eliminating
the difference between skilled and I'M
skilled. All are being leveled down
to semiskilled machine tenders.
