JUVENILE CRIME
On INCREASE

While there was a slight falling
off of arrests in the District in
the fiscal year ending June 80,
there was a gain in the number
Of youthful wrongdoers, according
to the annual report of Brig. Gen,
Pelham D. Glassford, former
police chief.
The Washington police arrested
86,554 during the 1882 fiscal year,
drop of BAT from the 1881 total
of 87,401. The value of property
stolen, however, including automo-
biles, jumped from $1,399,500 in
1881 to $1,759,301. The number
of stolen automobiles increased
16 per cent.
The department, GlaSSford said,
is trying to combat the increase
of Youthful laWbreakerS.

eff Italy is powerful, you will get

TUkIN, Italy, Oct. "a (l.N.S.).
eff Italy Is powerful, you will get
better working conditions"
In this way Premier Benito Mus.
solini today urged $4,000 automo-
bile workers to work for Fascism
to better their own lot. He de-
clared the workers prosperity was
tied to that of the state.
II Duce stood behind a huge an.
vii as he spoke, sending a fiery
message to the workers of a city
which has been notable in its op-
position to the Fascist cause.
Reviews 10000 Troops
Later Mussolini reviewed a dem
onstration in which 10000 troops
participated.
Mussolini yesterday began a
campaign to convert Turin, brav-
ing great personal danger in ad-
dressing a crowd of more than
100000 in a gigantic open-air
meeting.
II Duce, bareheaded and coat
less, wearing his black shirt,
warmed his hearers with stir
ring address which had Italy'S
foreign policy as it's chief sub
ject. The speech was in connec-
ton with ceremonies commem-
Grating the tenth anniversary OF
Fascist rule in Italy.
Wants Debts Cancelled
A direct appeal to the United
States to cancel or cut war debts
owed America by Europe fea.
tured the speech. He said:
"The ship of war debts and
reparatiOnS is now safely in the
harbOr of Lausanne. Will the
~reat American people turn into
the open sea again this ship
bearing the hopes and fears of
SO many peOpleS?"
mo! MOI" roared the crowd
MuSsolini replied:
'I wish these nos could cross
the ocean, touching the gen.
erouS hearts of the American
Republic"

REPUBLICANS GAVE
 US DEVASTATION

Cleveland, O., May 24-(U. P.) selection of 6 presidential nom- inee will be secondary if the demo- cratic national convention will adopt a platform that is bold and honest, and so brief that anyone can memorize 1t. Newton D. Baker told Cuyahoga County democrats.
 "The most important thing to be done at Chicago" he told them in their county convention last night, Ifs the adoption of q platform short enough to Do memorized by a man whose memory Is not very good, a platform bold. truthful and con- structive, and addressed to the evils from which the country is now suffering"
 The secretary of war in Wood- row Wilson's cabinet then praised Alfred E. Smith, 1928 candidate Of the party, nominated at Houston, Texas.
 Baker declared i've must have re-adjustment of our domestic economic policies"
 At Houston we adopted one neither bold. candid nor construc- tive but by great good fortune the candidate who was nominated, was bold. truthful and constructive. "Al Smith was 50 times as big as the platform they stood him on." ! (Continued ,on Page 10.)
