testimony. The law states that to Sc
cure a warrant to enter and search a
house there must be knowledge OF sale

iuries, 90 We almost have to have buys,
Informers are not used exclusively
here for purchasing evidence. as quite
often rookie policemen are employed,
until they become known to the boot
leggers. Mr.. Hart has always favored
the use of policemen. But 1t Is estl-
mated that the 10 special employees,
as the enforcement officials prefer to
call them. average 35 res a week.
The methcd of using informers here,
in general, Is as follows: The informer
gets some friend or talks his way into
a "speakeasy" or into bootlegger's
house, where he buys both drinks and
a pint or 50 Of liquor with marked
money. With his signature to an am
davit. he swears cut a warrant. He is
then given more money by officers and
told to return to the place and make
another purchase. The raiding squad
follows with the warrant and after re-
ceiving a signal frcm the informer
breaks into the place and takes the
purchase from their man and the
marked money from the bootlegger
When the case is considered especially
important, the informer is Instructed to
mske a number of buys. Generally.
only a count CT possession is placed
against the person arrested and the
purchases used to prove the man did
not have the contraband for his own
u.e and to make conviction easier. Fol-
lowing conviction of the bootlegger q

to talk with Mr.. Roosevelt early in
March.
Leaving Washington by airplane at
noon, Ambassador Lindsay told news
paper men there are many things to
be gone over" That was all. The
statement agrees with the word from
here that debts, economics and arma-
ments are to be gone over.
Whether intended O. not, the novel
separate meetings the President-elect IS
arranging with the foreign powers are
believed to be crlving a wedge in any
European alliances that may exist to-
day, but no slightest intimation that
such a purpose was sought has been
suggested here.
Silent on British Note.
There has been no reaction from Mr.
Roosevelt whatever on the recent Brit
ish note accepting his proposal to COM
bine an economic discussion Win ne
war debts talk but to limit drastically
the scope of the economic moves.
Perhaps this Is the reason for the
Lindsay conference. At least that un-
doubtedly will come up. 1t is ex-
pected Mr. Roosevelt will make it clear
that in linking the proposed world eco
nomic conference with the separate debt
talks he will show Just how far he wants
to go.
Only the agenda for the economic
parley is expected to be arranged by
the economic missions to come to Wash
ington with the debts representatives,
but Mr.. Roosevelt most certainly in
tends to get something In return for
debt relief.
News that the French cabinet had
fallen brought no reaction here nor
was there any fresh sign of the attitude
of the Roosevelt mind toward the
French debt payment which was not
met in December. Meanwhile, there is
no arrangement with France, Belgium
and the others, who defaulted, for re-
viewing their debts.

World Police, and its organization was
completed by representatives of two
agencies. the International Association
of Chiefs of Police and the Interna-
tional Police Conference.
The new organization will supply the
connecting link between these agencies
and the International Criminal Police
Commission of Europe.
Police Commissioner Edward p Null
rooney Of New York City, who presided
at the meeting of police officials at
which the organization was drafted,
said "the whole purpose is to expedite
action and enhance the facilities Of all
recognized police departments in appre-
hending international criminals and
preventing further international crime
The commissioner said the Interna-
tional World Police would maintain
headquarters in Geneva and Wash
ington.
j. Edgar Hoover Of the Bureau of
Investigation, Department of Justice,
assured the police officials at todaHl
meeting that his bureau stood behind
the new organization and would CO.
operate to the fullest extent of its
ability.
Commissioner Mulrooney said the
plan for such an international police
power was sponsored first at a joint
meeting of the three agencies in Paris
in 1881

That it will get some Democratic
votes already was clear. Hill of Wash

Most of the testimony before the

vored the plan. but yesterday John A.
Simpson, president of the National
Farmers Union, assailed it as useless
without currency expansion.
You can pass this bill and three
months from now the army of unem-
ployed will be greater in numbers, more
banks will have closed their doors, more
farms have been foreclosed and the
price of farm crops will be cheaper than
today" Simpson said In other words,
this bill is not remedy.
If we were to reduce the value of our
dollar as measured in commodities to
the value it had January l., 1920, we
would increase the cost of production in
every foreign country to such an extent
that with our present tariff rates and
their present tariff rates the advantage
in trade would be favorable to this
