District Chiefs Can Pile Up
100000 Yearly in
Chicago Graft.
FORCE MORALE RUINED
Most PatroImen Honest,
SuperiorS Crooked, Is
Observers Charge.
BY BRUCE CATION
NEA Service Writer

CHICAGO, July 4.-Until Chicago
finds some way Of roofing out cor
ruption from it police force, it will
have small luck in any effort to per-
manently subdue its lawlesS gangs.
Police commissioners come and go,
but the organization remains much
the same from year to year.
Gangland gains much Of its
power through political influence,
but it gains most of its revenue
through it's arrangements with po-
lice officials; and until these ar
rangementS are broken up and the
guilty men are driven off of the
force, gangland is going to keep on
making big rconey-which is the
chief thing that makes gangland
powerful.
Police Captains Blamed
The real key to the Chicago sit
uation lies in the hands of per-
haps a score of men-the police
captains who control the districts
where organized crime flourishes
most. To be effective, a cleanup
must either begin or end, or both,
with them.
All of this is more or less a mat
ter of common knowledge among
those in touch with the situation
here.
It also comes on the word of a
high law enforcement official, who
declares bluntly that "the whole
thing is up to the police captains.
If they're honest and efficient the
gangs would die out overnight"
This man is in as close contact
with the police force and the under
world as any man in Chicago. Be-
cause of his position, his name can
not be used; but what nc has to say
is interesting.
Most PatroImen Honest
1.-THE ordinary patrolman on the
beat in Chicago is honest-or would
be if he had any encouragement
from his superiors," he said.
tits the police captain that is
responsible. A captain in charge
of a good district here can make
from 100000 year on up in addi-
ton to his regular salary.
1.-The established minimum rate
of payment by a Chicago speakeasy
to the district captain is $500 a
month. know of one district where
there are 400 speakeasies. Figure it
out for yourself.
Nothing for "Beat" Man
"The man on the beat doesn't
cut in on this. oh, he may get a
SIS bill now and then, or a few
cigars or couple of drinks. But
that's all.
1.-THE money goes to the men in
charge. The captain and his. two
lieutenants are the men who get the
gravy.
That's what ruins the morale Of
the man on the beat-and can you
wonder at it? He'd be honest if
he had the incentive. But where's
his incentive?"

ers Association. They are there
because Of these. 26,5OO, 900 motor
cars.

road problem than has the lay.
man. The road builder must not
only keep these cars out Of the
mud, but he must provide q

pavements unless he has the

HIGHWAY WORK
COMMENDED

There is but one way to solve
the rural highway problem and
that is to formulate q plan
whereby every available cent of
highway income can be devoted
to pavement construction that
will best serve the car.
What q state can do when it
places its mind on the job is well
Illustrated by Maryland. During
the. road building season just
ended, Maryland constructed 225
miles of new roads and of this
total all but so miles were OF con-
crete.
Maryland Figures Cited
Although Maryland is among
the smaller States, she has a
total road mileage Of 14,8lO. OF
this, 5000 miles compose the
State system. At the beginning
Of 1929 Maryland had some
1,45O miles of concrete pavement.
which together with the new con-
struction Of last season gives
about 1900 miles. This reflects
q real attempt to serve the tax
Further recognition by Mary
land that the automobile Is q de-
vice that demands space and free
dom is indicated in three other
features Of the construction pro
gram. One hundred and forty
miles Of shoulders were con-
structed to widen existing pave
ments for additional safety and
convenience.
Included among the 80 bridges
completed this year, or nearly so,
were seven grade crossing elimina-
tions. The troubles usually en-
countered in securing rightS-of-
way and cooperation In building
separated grade crossings pre-
vented Maryland from adding IL
more to the 1929 program.
Early Planning Essential
Herein is pointed out the neces-
Sity Of early planning. Several
States have found 1t expedient to
lay their plans for structures
even some little time ahead Of
the period in which money would
become available. It may be said
that If work on all the projects
held in the paper stage were to
proceed, no one need work over
labor surpluses for some time to
come.
Another forward looking step
taken by Maryland was the widen
ing Of II miles Of the. Washing
ton-Baltimore Boulevard to 40
feet, completing the work be-
tween Baltimore and Laurel.
Only through such effort as
this will the States be able to
declare that they are doing all In
their power to meet the motor
problem.

DETROIT. Mich, Jan. a.
A further increase in automotive

these levels for while and at

Plants Resuming.
Gains this week were largely
the result Of more plants reSum-
ing regular schedules, after being
out of production or maintaining
only an irregular pace for several
weeks. Some manufacturers in
Stituted heavier schedules, how

will build only In accordance with
demand for the demainder Of the
month.
Manufacturing delays prevented
the largest single producer Of
low-priced cars from increasing
daily output, but this company'S
volume undoubtedly will be fur
ther augmented shortly. Heavier
output in the medium and high
priced fields was the result al
most entirely Of resumption Of
| activity by companies hitherto
closed, but gains In the low-priced
class came from increased daily
schedules.
5000 Cars More
One company in the high-priced
field has announced that in 1890
1t will build at least 5000 more
cars than were produced in 1929.
and this should aid considerably
in this division attaining produc-
ton totals for the year compar.
able with those Of the year just
past.
During the past two weeks the
sales volume Of new cars has in
creased noticeably and a definite
upward swing in trend Is discern
ible. OF course, this is attribut-
able in part to the stimulus Of
the recent New York show and
more or less renewed activity by
the industry in general.
Stocks, however, show little
change, but are gradually reach
ing more normal basis and are
not unusually high, taking the
country as q whole. Currently,
the sales volume is good in three
centerS, fair in Is and slow in IL.
The last survey showed sales good
in not any districts, fair in IL
and slow in Is. At present sales
are increasing in 13 areas, hold
ing even in six and declining in
Is. Two weeks ago the trend
was upward in only six localities,
while Is reported a downward
trend and five were holding even.
Mostly Normal
Stocks are now high in eleven
centerS, normal in seventeen and
low in four. The last survey
showed stocks high in ten areas,
normal in fifteen and low In
