Of good character and physique, with
the sole educational requirement thai
they must be able to read and write
and do simple arithmetic" the Justice
special agents are lawyers, or account
ants, or both.
During the recent visit to the De-
partment of Justice Of a group of police
chiefs from Europe amazement was ex-
pressed at the tremendous scope Of the
Government law enforcement ma
chinery, and especially at the effective
ness Of the Federal drive on kidnapers.
Several Of the foreign officials frankly
admitted they would not know how to
20 about handling a kidnapping case. as
this type of crime is virtually unknown
s5rOad.
British Murders Rare.
Records show that about 80 per cent
of the indictable offenses in England
and Wales for the last 10 years have
been crimes against property Muir
ders, sensational holdups and similar
major crimes are quite rare. Most OF
the Investigations by Scotland Yard are
OF petty thefts. entertainments, frauds
and housebreakings.
In contrasting London's police prob
lens with those of typical American
city, Raymond B. Fosdick. In hts work
"The European Police Systems" called
attention to the fact that London has
an exceedingly small foreign population
and that the police task accordingly
is simplified.
The consensus Of many who have
studied the Scotland Yard plan is that
Americas population is too heterogen-
eous and its area too vast for success
full operation of a national police force,
empowered to 20 into States and cities
and investigate local crimes.
Senator Royal Copeland, chairman OF
the Senate Committee on Racketeering,
has q substitute plan that Is receiving
serious consideration by the Depart
ment Of Justice. The Copeland plan is
to establish q liaison between State and
Federal police agencies through a spe-
| cial officer in each State who would be
clothed with both Federal and State au-
| thority. These officers would be desig
mated by the Governors. but would re-
| ceive compensation from the Federal
| Government. In order to give these
men State police powers they would
also receive dollar year from the
States.
Senator Copeland believes that fail
ure of State police to cooperate with
Federal investigators in some kidnapping
cases has prevented earlier solution OF
several Of these crimes. The Federal
State liaison official would have power
to compel cooperation. he points out.
This and other plans will be aired
before the Senate Committee at a series
Of hearings to be held here early this
Fall, Senator Copeland said yesterday.

veloped after Lange voluntarily ad-
mitted to Maryland detectives at the

to start a night at the party, but that
he had dissuaded him from doing sc

Frightened and convinced that the
dead man was Jett, Lange said he
hurried back to his cottage. determined
to say nothing Of the events preceding
the tragedy
Police said this morning they believe
Lange's account Of the events leading

ceived in the fight with Lange stumbled
