PARIS, July 18.-Criminal activi-
ties over the radio are becoming so
serious in France the worlds first
radio police force is being organized
to combat this new type of swindler.
1t will concentrate its efforts in
stopping illegal Speculations on the
franc and on Bourse quotations.
Besides looking after the financial
interests Of the country, the radio
police will also lend international
cooperation in the apprehension of
thieves, murdererS and fugitiyeS from
justice Of all sorts who are wanted
by the police of other countries. The
transmission of photographs BY
radio and the fast sending of all
necessary details regarding a crimi-
nal or suspect will be concentrated
in this department.
The international side of this
radio service will be particularly at
the disposition of other countries
with the result that law breakers
fleeing from France will find they
have already been formally and
infinitely introduced to the police Of
other countries, The scope of the
radio police, it is pointed out by of
ficials, is unlimited, being dependent
only on the increasing improve
ments of radio science.
The members of this new police
unit are being recruited from among
radio experts. The regular police
who are already acquainted with
radio technique are being given
preference for the new positions.
