The essence of the former ma | rine generals plan would come when the racketeer faced the court. "The suspect would be asked to show how he honestly earned the money which permitted him to live in expenEive apartments and drive high priced cars, "and when he couldn't show an honest job for the past few years, he would be auto- matically sentenced to tropical island for an indefinite sentence
 There would te no appeal. no high priced lawyers, no long drawn out litigation under the Butler plan.
 "The only appeal would be to the president of the United States" he said.
 Local and state police forces. for obvious reasons, are powerless in combating kidnapings and fed eral authorities are greatly handi capped by inadequate laws and small forces of fsinvestigators.
 "Most kidnapers are either old time criminals with police records or bootleggers and gangsters.
 "A real federal force of Provost marshals, operating under the dis trict marshal. would have little trouble in bringing in the criminals and gangsters within q month. And the action of the provost court would be swift and sure. un-inf1u- enced by political considerations
 That such method has prece- dent and is effective is clearly shown by the marine guards on mail trucks in 1921 and 1926" he continued.
