PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1.-The
City of Brotherly Love appears to
have taken long slide back to-
ward crime conditions which pre-
vailed in the stormy days of early
1920, when Brig. Gen. Smedley D.
Butler was called into stamp out
lawlessness.
The recent series of gang kill
ings brought conditions here be-
fore a grand jury, and that body
has now issued a report which
characterizes Philadelphia almost
"as bad as Chicago" The grand
urors we're not willing to go so far
as to say that conditions here were
the same as in the mid-western me-
tropolis, but their preliminary re-
port is one Of the most amazing
ever issued in this part of the coun-
try.
1t says that the grand jury has
found that a ring of criminals.
backed by powerful and wealthy in
terestS, has gained hold on the
liquor business here, involving scores
of police officials.
The ring employs the best legal
talent money will obtain and oper-
ates a system of bribery, robbery,
assault and murder as necessary

Midnight Oil.
AIS No 8 O'Clock Guy;
He'd Bring Late Hours
to White House.
BY THOMAS L. STOKES,

United Press staff Correspondent
A LBANY, N. Y, Sept. AL
IN fred z, Smith is not what
would be called "a nine O'Clock
guy in lingo of the East Side
where he grew up.
If he is elected President, the
lights from the White House will
shine forth along Pennsylvania
Avenue much later than they
have in the regime of President
Coolidge, who was raised as a
farm boy in Vermont and re-
tanned his early acquired habit of
early to bed and early to rise.
The New York Governor usu-
ally is up long after the time
when the White House lights are
out. He very rarely goes to bed
before midnight and often it is
later than that Consequently, he
does not get up until late in the
morning.
His entrance into the national
political arena as Democratic
presidential candidate has not
changed his habits. He has break
fast usually around IL o'clock
these days, and goes to bed late.
CMITH likes to work late at
- night. He wrote much of his
acceptance speech after midnight.
Things are quiet then, and he can
shut himself up in his study at
his mansion and devote himself
to the task in hand.
In this respect, Smiths habits
are not unlike those of Woodrow
Wilson, who did much Of the writ
ing of his war messages in the
night and early mornings hours.
Wilson, however, was not a late
riser. He got up early frequently
and went out for a round of golf
before he began his days routine
at the executive offices.
President Coolidge retires early
and gets up early, going to his
Office shortly after o'clock to be-
gan his days work and receive
callers.
The Democratic presidential
candidate insists on his full quota
of sleep. For this reason, he pre-
fers to remain in Albany for his
rest periods rather than go to
some resort.
GOVERNOR SMITH is a So
NJ ciable person. He likes to
have his friends Ctout t.iIE, and
his children and their children
about him. The executive man.
sion in Albany now houses a large
number of the Smith family.
If Smith is elected President,
he will take them all to the White
House with him, and the executive
mansion probably will be the
scene Of many gatherings of
friends and relatives such as it
has not seen since Roosevelt was
President. There would be young
sters in the White House for the
first time since young Quentin
Roosevelt used to make things
lively by shooting out the arc
lights about the White House
grounds with his air rifle and rid
ing lis pony on the shiny floors
Of the mansion and taking the

spending the summer here at the

measurements with a special
camera which he has patiently

measurements and geometrical
calculations of this displacement
the direction and rate of travel of
the flash can be determined. It's
duration can be learned from the
width of the streaks on the plate,
blurred by the motion of the
lenses.
A detailed report of Professor
Boys lightning measurement and
description of the methods en-
ployed are published in the Brit
iSh scientific periodical Nature,
