BAN BUREAU
CROOKS
Civil Service Check Through
Department Of Justice Is
Safety Value to U. S. Staff

BLACK sheep" find today it is
practically impossible to enter
the Government service under
false colors. An applicant for a
civil service position with q
record cannot disguise his past
life from the examiners. There
is no chance for an unscrupulous
person to carry on their work
under the guise of Government
authority.
Men and women, taking ex
aminations for Government posi-.
tions are fingerprinted. The
records are then compared with
those on file in the National
Bureau OF Identification of the
Department of Justice and a
report is submitted to the eX-
aminerS.
Crooks Are Barred
In the past there were a num-
Der of "chiselers" in various
branches of the Government SER
vice. Today this is entirely
changed. The average Govern
ment worker is perfect" as far
as his past record goes.
The BLACK sheep" have been
weeded ont of the service and
the force is maintained at high
standard.
There were once many oppor-
tunities for a crook to pursue
his calling in the cloak of a
Government worker. Today, ex-
aminations and fingerprinting Of
applicants form a bar to a
crooks entrance into the service.
This system bans bootleggers
and dope peddlers entering the
prohibition and narcotic services.
Evils Would Follow
One could easily imagine what
would happen if gang of dope
smugglers were to install one Of
their own members in the Gus
toms service. The one man could
allow thousands of dollars of the
illicit stuff through the customs
without arousing suspicion.
Experts say that in addition
to preventing criminals from en-
tering the Government service.
the fingerprinting also has a
good effect on the workers who
are given jobs, for they know
that they as we'll as their fellow
workers, are above suspicion Of
doing anything wrong in the
past.

soon as the plants mature they
will be plowed under and will
provide a base for the planting
of the grass seed.
This summer, so the experts
say, the lawn will resemble a
huge hay field, but next year
it will blossom out in a beautiful
lawn.
Trees Being Planted
In addition to the lawn there
are large number of trees to
be planted in front of the de-
partment'S building. Many of
these are being transplanted from
other locations in order to make
way for additional roads which

WIDOWS DEFENSE
IN Staying BEGUN
Mrs. ]. A. Jones Starts Fight
Against Testimony OF
Her Son.

BY the Associated Press
AMELIA COURT HOUSE, Va, Au-
gust 31.-The defense today was to
present its version Of circumstances
which have brought Mrs. Jeston Allen
Jones into County Circuit Court here
charged with the murder Of her hus-
band, j. VIII Jones, Amelia County
farmer.
Completion Of the case, started early
last week, is expected to require several
more days. Evidence to be combated in
cludes that of Robert Jones, "a, son of
the defendant and the slain man, who
Friday and Saturday testified that Mrs.
Jones had threatened the life of her
husband, suggested that he kill his
father and then had told him that she
had arranged to have the deed done
by Richard Lee, Negro farm hand.
Under Long Sentence.
Lee Is now under 2O-year sentence
of Mrs. Jones and Oscar Jones, another
son, followed his conviction.
Still another member OF the family
was involved in the web of criminal
charges on Saturday when Robert Jones
testified that while keeping a trySt
with county officers and arranging to
appear as a witness for the State he
had been shot at by q person ne De-
leved to be his younger brother, Porter
Jones.
Letters Introduced.
The defense has introduced letters
written by Robert Jones in which he
denied the truth Of the charges pre-
viously made against his mother in the
statement of county officers, and also
has sought to show that he Is moved
by financial considerations in appear
ing as a witness against members of
his own family.
Another defense victory was scored
when Lee, under cross examination,
broke down and repudiated a confession
that he had slain the dairyman after
Mrs. Jones had offered him a $25 re-
ward

THE CAST
By ANDREW r. KELLEY

This is a spectacular attempt tC
build What Price Glory" love
and war comedy around a trio OF
gobs and it makes entertaining
and animated screen fare.
A full-rigged schooner is blown
into splinters by Navy marksmen
and there is a fire at sea that is
flamingly realistic for those who
thirst for exciteMent.
Dialogue Falters
Suicide Fleet" escapes being
niched with the epic films because
the dialogue writer had neither
the penchant for racy and robust
speech such as characterized
"Glory" and "Cock-Eyed World, y
constructed on a similar formula,
nor the ability to make the con-
flict between these sailor boys
anything more than opera bouffe.
It tells of three Coney Island
boys who enlist in the Navy at
the first call to arms. One Is a
shooting gallery magnate william
Boyd, another runs a tintype
emporium (Robert Armstrong;
and the third member of the trio
(James GleasonD is barker on a
sightseeing bus. They all love
Sally CGinger Rogers, who runs
the taffy counter at Luna Park
They are all assigned to the
same U. S, destroyer and be-
come heroes when their danger
Gus assignment to man a mystery
ship and lure enemy "U" boats
into dangerous areas proves a
success.
Gleason Is Excellent
Suicide Fleet" might have
been memorable for laughs if the
gag men had been more expert.
AS it is the best sequence shows
Sally wigwagging Il love you"
to her sweetheart as the de-
stroyer puts out to sea. All the
Navy loungers on every deck
wave back a romnatic salute.
James Gleason makes the most
of his fun lines and William
Boyd serves capably enough as
the blond romantic hero. Rob
ert Armstrong, third member of
the COB trio is a good actor but
only fair comedian. Ginger
Rogers fails completely in put
ting conviction into her love
scenes. Her forte is musical
ISmedy and not pictures.
The cooperation of the U. S.
Navy is manifest in some strik-
ingly effective sea scenes en-
ploying the battleships of Uncle
Sans fleet.
