Forces Widely Filled With
Graft and Incompetence,
Report Says.
SIX CHARGES ARE MADE;
CITIZEN SEEN HELPLESS
Subsection Of Chief to Politicians
and Short Term Blamed
as Main Evils.
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A blanket indictment against the DO
lice forces Of the country as general
failure was handed down today by the
Wickersham Commission.
In its eighth report to President
Hoover, the commission charged that
with few exceptions units IN the sys-
tenn were shot through with graft and
incompetence and too often were under
the direct control Of dishonest poll
ttcianS.
1t asserted without qualification that
major criminals in almost every large
community are well known to the po-
lice, but, by reason of the sinister in
duence exerted by corrupt politicians
over the chief and his force, are allowed
to continue their criminal careers"
Citizens Helpless.
The report concluded, in short, that
defects in present police administra-
ton too generally leave the citizen
helpless in the hands Of the criminal
class"
Six majcr charges were brought. They
follow in brief:
/. 1.-THE chief evil lies In the inss-
cure, short term Of service of the chief
or executive head Of the police force
and in his being subject while in Office
to the control CT politicians in the dis
charge Of his duties"
2. "The second outstanding evil of
such police administration is the lack
Of competent, efficient and honest pa
trolmen and subordinate officers.
3. 1.-THE third great defect is the lack
OF eflcient communication systems
whereby intelligence Of the commission Of
crime and descriptions Of the criminals
may be quickly spread over wide ter
ritory, and as part Of that, the necessary
equipment in motors to pursue traces
Of the criminals making their escape.
4. THE well known and oft-repeated
alliance between criminals and corrupt
politicians, which controls, in part, at
least, where it does not wholly do SO,
the police force of our large cities
might well be taken as primary cause
Of insfhctency, since 1t rules the head
and every subordinate and lays a para
Lying hand upon determined action
against such major criminals.
5. "There are too many duties cast
upon each of1cer and patrolman."
Sixth Charge Made.
A sixth charge was one of failure to
make proper provision for the policing
Of millions of immigrants and Of the
influx of large numbers of Negroes to
the Northern cities.
Only 10 Of the IL commissioners
signed the report. The signature Of
Monte Lemann, Nsw Orleans attorney,

estates of her husband and son.
Mrs. Henderson's last will. drawn on
April 8, left the bulk Of her $4,000, 900
estate to Augustus father, Henry Ar

The report Of the guardian ad ltem,

validate the will, under which she would
have benefited materially.
Mr.. Arth also asserted that MIS-. Hen
derson had no conception Of the aver
ments Of the suit brought against her
by MRS. Wholean.
Called Shima Her Lawyer"
During visit to the Henderson home,

rotary, Jesse 8. Shima, was present and
sat Immediately in front Of Mrs. Hen
derson and Mr.. Arth. Mrs. Henderson
referred to Shima as her lawyer" and
declared he was responsible for her
being alive. Shima admitted to him,
Arth said, that he Is not lawyer, but

GERMANY OFFERED
EXCESS u. S. WHEAT
Government Suggests Deal
for Farm Board Holdings
on Liberal Terms.

BY the Associated Press.
The American Government has sug-
gested to Germany that it buy wheat
and cotton now held by subsidiaries of
the Farm Board on liberal credit terms.
Ambassador Sackett at Berlin has
suggested to the German government
that. 1t might be OF assistance to Ger
many II the board sold it substantial
amounts Of its holdings in wheat and
cotton on easy credit terms.
It was said at the State Department
today. however, that neither the Farm
Board nor the American Government
has yet received any request from Ger
many in accordance with the suggEs-
ton.
At the White House 1t was said Am
bassador Sackett had made the sugges-
ton to the German government ION his
own initiative" but with the fun ap-
proval of President Hoover.
The suggestion that the American
Government might aid Germany con-
veying some of the Farm Boards price
stabilizing stocks to that country at q
fair price and on long terms first was
laid before President Hoover some
time ago.
Ambassador Sackett first proposed the
matter during the preliminary mora
torium negotiations on intergovernment
debts. It has since been brought again
to the attention Of the administration
by newspaper reports in Germany.
Cotton Pledge Expires.
While Germany undoubtedly would
be benefited through the carrying out
of the suggestion, the attitude here is
that disposal of large portions OF the
stabilizing stocks would relieve appre-
hension among farmers and traders
that the Farm Board might unload its
holdings and thereby further depress
the market prices.
The board has nearly 200 ,000, 600
bushels Of wheat and 1900 900 bales OF
1929 cotton on hand. Its pledge to
withhold its 1929 cotton from the do
nestle market expired last night.
Surrounded by Conjecture.
It has not decided on how it will
handle the 1882 crop. It has ceased
to purchase wheat for sterilization pur-
poses.
on June 80, the board agreed to hold
its sales of sterilization wheat during
the new crop year to cumulative maxi
mum of 5000, 900 bushels a month. In
making the announcement the board
also said:
This limitation, however, shall not
apply to sales to foreign governments
or other agencies now being considered. :
