CHICAGO is CALLED
SHORT ON CRIMINALS
Estimate Is Given by Research
Head to Chicago
Press Club.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 14.-Prof. Au-
gust Vollmer. president of the National
Association of Police Chiefs, estimates
there are 100000 criminals in the
country and that Chicago has less than
its share of them.
The former Berkeley, Calf, police
chief, who now is head of the police re-
search department of the University Of
Chicago, was addressing the Chicago
Press Club
There are 100000 legal regulations
and 100000 legal mhibitions affecting
every citizen" Prof. Vollmer said. Prob
ably l person out of every 10 has vio-
lated one or more of these laws at some
time or other, according to Prof. Voll-
mer's expressed belief.
He held the failure of lawmakers to
keep abreast of changing conditions re-
sponsible for crime conditions. He said
the police forces should be made up of
intelligent men. About so per cent of
the present police forces, in his opin-
ion, have no business being policemen
IF insurance figures are any cri-
terion," he added. Chicago has con-
siderably less crime than other big
cities"

EXPERT ON DATES
REGRETS LACK OF
VALLEY INTEREST

DR.. II. j. Webber, director of the
Riverside citrus experiment station,
who was the principal speaker at the
Brawley Rotary club last night,
and who visited the farm advisor IS
office this morning, made the state
ment on both occasions that it was
rather odd that the industry for
which Imperial valley is peculiarly
adapted, that of date growing, is
relatively neglected.
lie pointed out the fact that there
are few regions in the world suit
able COR the growing of dates and
that if the entire valley were plant
ed TO that fruit there would be no
over production. The date industry
is profitable one and one which
is relatively permanent as crops go.
Various date varieties suitable to
this region are the Sadly, Khustawi,
Halawi and Khadrawi, some of
which require q rather sandy soil,
and others which originated in the
gulf districts, requiring heavier
type soil.
DIR. Webher also visited the cit
ros experiment station on the Emil
Steiner ranch near Brawlcy, the
work of which is progressing nice

 The procedure adopted to reject the Soviet proposals was formulated by the commissions steering com- mittee over night, Giving little, it promised much, the committees re- port saying that while the Soviet delegation might append their scheme 10 the commissions final report for consideration by an eventual international conference. the commission for the present would continue work on it's draft treaty.
 The report further allowed that the Soviet delegation, like any of the others, would have the right to bring forward any amendments to the commissions draft at any time during the discussion.

 Discusses Cancer
 With the help of new techniques developed during the past years in my laboratories it has become pos sible to define tissue cells. not only by their shape and structure, as was done previously, but also by their functions.
 Thus. he explained. cells are iden- ti1ied by their mode of locomotion. their architecture. rate of growth. residual energy, secretons, condi- tions of medium in which they live, nutrition.
 ''These techniques,' he said, have been applied lately in New Yo,L and also in Europe to the study of can- Ger.
 The classical conception of the malignant cells has almost complete ly collapsed. Thus: these cells are not anarchical. They grow no more rapidly than normal cells, they have no more growth energy. and they are not necessarily diseased. They do not possess any specific morpho- logical characteristics. But they diff fer from the normal by certain properties.
 "A striking fact is that they ob- tain the nitogen necessary for mul- tiplication from proteins or from protein split products which normal cells of the same type are unable to utilize, Such property explains their unlimited proliferation within the body, because the substances compelling their multiplication are located within their reach in the tissues

Philadelphia, April 19 P - Two may be due to loss of minute quan- titles of electricity from the body, and the other that cancer cells grow no more rapidly than normal cells, were explained to the Amer ican Philosophical society here to- day.
 The electrical experiments were reported by Dr. George w. Crile. director of the Cleveland clinic and the Cleveland Clinic hospital. The cancer findings were from Dr. Alexis Carrell of the Rockefeller An- stitute. New York.
 Dr. Grille described the vital force which is life as "an electric strain or potential Certain forms of life he was able to measure in terms of voltage. He took fruit juice, and by restoring it's lost po- tential was able to cause in it some of the manifestations Of the life of the original fruit
 Thirty-five years ago, Dr. Cri,e said, he first began to search for the essential feature in living organ isms which is lost upon death"
 Il propose now to offer new ex- perimental evidence which identifies a form of energy that is lost in death. These researches may be summarized as follows:
 Tn animals, plants and fruits. q potential exists during life and dis appears at death.'
 Finds Apples Breathe
 In living apple Dr. Grille found q potentiality of 50 mill-volts and that the fruit had "a steady respira- ton. consuming from three to four cube centimeters of oxygen every hour" The apple responded in po- tentlal and resuiration to anesthetics, adrenalln, temperature changes and exclusion Of oxygen Just as they had acted on the rabbit and the dog"
 Experimenting with apple juice alone he found that potential could be induced. and while it existed. there was respiration like that Of the loving apple.
 "Iife,' he said, may be defined as potential which is maintained and is varied adaptively according to enNironmental conditions; that po- tential and respiration 10 anesthetics, cal actlNlty-mainly by oxidation.
