U. s. RESPONDS TO PLEAS.
Action 10 wire Out Gangsters win Be
Pressed vigorously.


The decision Of the Federal Govern
in Chicago which may be followed by
energetic measures to curb gangsters In
other cities Is due to a steady pressure
upon the authorities here which has
come to climax in determined effort
to use every resource at the command
Of the Department Of Justice.
While nobody would for moment
admit that politics has heretofore de-
layed action there Is little doubt that
the Republican administration In Wash
ington no longer feels any hesitancy
about stepping on the toes of local Re
publican or Democratic chieftains who
are the real powers behind the throne
IN obstructing aggressive measures with
respect to prohibition enforcement.
Vote Regarded As Protest.
The Illinois vote Is regarded here as
o protest against racketeering as much
as dissent from the prohibition laws
themselves
For q long time the Federal authori-
ties have been anxious to cooperate
with the local government, but party
politics has usually interfered. The or
ganization in Chicago Of a Vigilance
Committee has made it possible for the
Federal Government to work with that
committee and with special prosecutors
so as to avoid contact with those elect
ed officials who might for political rea-
sons wish to prosecute in only per-
functory way. There is talk Of an in
vestigation Of local police departments,
because under Federal laws Of sonspi-
racy police officers could be indicted
for failing to do their duty.
r.AAs... E.al... Ay~k Ro~y
TIE spectacle Of a growing boldness
on the part Of the racketeers and gang
sters has been thrust at the Federal
Government as a challenge to enforce
law. The drys have not been satisfied
and the vets have used the failure OF
enforcement as an argument 10 a0-
vocate modification Of the law.
There is no doubt that the congress
gional elections marked turning point
In policy here. 1t is fully expected that
the Federal agencies will duplicate
their measures in New York city in due
time, but that for the present they will
concentrate on Chicago. With special
funds appropriated by the Chicago
committee, said to be in the neighbor-
hood of $5,000.000, 1t would seem that
the work of prosecution could be easily
accomplished; but there are well defined
reports that the resources OF the
racketeers are In excess of $25 ,000, 900.
So large has been the tribute paid to
the racketeers in the past that huge
amount Of money is believed to be
available for legal battle.
Getting evidence Is not as simple as
Is popularity believed because Of the
necessity of having the right kind Of
search warrants as well as witnesses.
The dificult problem is to get those
higher up who direct the activities of
the vast army of racketeering subordi-
mates, the arrest Of which latter group
doesn't cure the evil at its source.

Findings and conclusions of a years

to be used as q national standard for
local legislation and for the guidance
OF welfare activities and scientific re-
search, were adopted at the final meet
ing of the White House Conference on
Child Health and Protection, at Con-
stitution Hall this morning.
Some Of the committees worked until
an early hour today putting their rec
concentrations La Hnal shape and in
cooperating the suggestions Of the past
two days.
From the General Committee came
q sweeping statement Of the rights Of
every American child which, In the
words Of DR.. H. Z. Barnard, director Of
the conference, I'VE tried to make .
classic"
Report Came ~ Shock.
From the committee on the handi-
capped, whose findings that from three
to i've million American children were
starting life without q fair chance be-
came as the shock Of the conference
and especially aroused President Hoover,
came the proposal for national coun-
Gil Of the handicapped to act under
some one of the Government DEPART
mentS as q research bureau and clear
ing house, with State advisory councils
in each State. A committee under the
Department Of Labor also was proposed
on which would be representatives of

groups to deal with problems Of handi-
capped children.
From the Committee on Education
and Training came summary Of the

The Committee on the Handicapped
at the same time proposed getting rid
of the traditional idea that children are
born bad, declaring "the concept of de-
linquency and crime as q result Of gen.
eral Unborn physical conditions and the
inheritance Of general Unborn delinquent
or criminal tendencies Is no longer ac-
cepted."
Summary Of Conclusions.
