u. S. PLANS LIBRARY
OF CRIME RECORDS
Biggest Undertaking of Kind
Ever Attempted.

WaShington.-The most ambitious
and far-reaching program of sci
entific criminal Identification ever
undertaken is being quietly pressed
here by the bureau of investigation
of the United States Department OF
Justice.
Under a new division of identi-
fication and information of the bu-
reau,. nationwide campaign. in
which 1000 police departments and
other agencies are cooperating, is
under way to build up in Washing.
ton an exhaustive national library
of fnger-print records and other
crime data.
Already finger prints Of 1,750,000
male and female lawbreakers have
been secured. classified and fled.
and LOO cards are being added
every day. Over 3,500.0O0 cards con-
tanning names and aliases of Grim
inals already have been collected.
Against this unprecedented as
sembly of crime records Scotland
Yard Is said to have only 10000
sets of fingerprints. Under the new
plan, wherever an infraction Of the
law occurs In the United States,
even though a minor offense is in
volved, duplicate fingerprints, with
accompanying data, are immediate
ly sent on to Washington by the To-
cal police. There search of the files
is made to determine whether
identical prints are already on file
under the same name, or some alias.
So efficient is the classifying and
filing system that the average
search requires but from three TO
FIVE minutes
Often the offender is discovered
to have committed a crime in an
other part of the country. Out of every
100 sets sent to Washington pre-
vious records are found In 81 cases
and data on the offenders past life
is reported back to the local author
tiles within 4S hours.
Beginning July i all applicants
for United States government Jobs
will be required to submit to finger
printing. Out of 1000 applicants
for Christmas postal jobs the gov
ernment found that IA had criminal
records, as revealed by the finger
print division. The army has found
80 criminals out of 1000 enlisted
men.
