 The Chief Executive said he was wondering whether the time had not come "to realize that we are confronted with a national neces- sity of first degree that we are not suffering from an ephemeral crime wave, but from subsistence of our foundations in order to dispel certain illusions in the public mind on this subject.
 Let me say at once, that while violations of law have been in creased by the inclusion of crimes under the Eighteenth Amendment and by vast sums poured into the hands of the criminal classes by patronage of illicit liquor by other wise responsible citizens, yet this is but one segment of our prob lem"
