Baltimore Merchants Ask In

Show Gain, Report

Carrying on with the program
of the Nations Capital Blue Eagle
Week, Sylvan King, general chair.
man, at $50 p. m. today will ad-
dress the Federation of Business
Mems Clubs at a dinner at the
Arlington Hotel.
Another address on the program
Of the campaign will be given over
station WRC at 6:35 p. m. by Ar.
thur Sundlun, vice president Of
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association.
With only one day of the cam
paign completed, Mr.. King said
today that the widespread inter
est and favorable reaction to the
movement, the purpose Of which
is to emphasize the large number
who have been given work under
the NRA program and the neces-
sity for keeping them at work,
has attracted the merchants of
Baltimore.
Dinner Planned
Mr.. King said he has received
word from a Baltimore depart
ment store merchants association
asking for more information in
connection with the National Capt.
tai Blue Eagle Week, and that a
dinner has been arranged for TO-
morrow night, at which time the
Baltimore group will be the guests
Of the local department stores
group of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers Association.
Concerning the local campaign,
Mr.. King said today:
"The movement is providing
definite reactions which show
what has been done under
NRA in one year.
"Such interest has been
shown and such support mani
fest that many stores, after
seeing the attractive displays
in some Of the store windows
have begun placing Blue Eagle
displays in their windows. And
this applies to many stores
which heretofore did not have
displays of this kind.
EDUCATIONAL PLAN
"Our idea is to educate the
people to what NRA has done
for them in the way of pro-
viding Jobs, and with this edu-
cation being accomplished it
is then that the people will
want to do everything they can
to support NRA so that those
who have been given employ
ment may retain their work"
In an address yesterday, Mr..
King quoted figures to show that
department. store sales here were
1873 per cent higher in the first
eight months of 1884 than in
the same period of 1898. August
sales, he said, increased 10 per
cent and sales for the first eight
months of the year 16 per cent.
He added that these figures are
3.S and 2 per cent, respectively,
better than the average for the
nation as whole.

UNIFIED POLICE
FORCE URGED
FOR COUNTRY
Pennsylvania Says Complete
Naturalization Needed
In War on Crime
picture on Page g.

Complete reorganization Of po-
lice forces throughout the country
was urged today before more than
500 police chiefs at the Mayflower
Hotel.
Lynn G. Adams, superintendent
of Pennsylvania State police, In
addressing the forty-first annual
convention of the Internatioal AS.
sociation of Chiefs of Police, de
scribed what he admitted to be
only "a police officers dream" at
present.
Every town, city and county, he
said, should be policed by officers
belonging to State police force.
Responsible to State
These men would be responsible
to State director-general, who in
turn would be responsible to a
State police commissioner.
If every State in the Union
should adopt such a system, Super.
intendent Adams predicted
crime could be dealt with far
more efficiently than under the
present system of local admins
tration. Under present conditions,
he admitted, unified national
police force is utterly impossi'
ble."
Another speaker on today's pro
gram was Lieut.. Donald S. Leon
ard, Of the Michigan State police,
Discussing police radio problems.
he condemned harShly installation
of short-wave radio sets in private
automobiles.
Murderer Escaped
Receipt by citizens of police
messages is extremely harmful to
efficient handling of emergency
cases, he said. In one instance, a
murderer escaped a net closing in
on him because he heard over the
radio instructions for his capture.
Establishment of an interna'
tional laboratory of criminology
was urged by L. J. O'|:Nurke, direc'
tor Of the Presidents council on
personnel administration, said:
Thousands of records are Sc
cured yet in the great majority
of cases findings are not reliable
because the experimental pro.
grams have not been Scientifi-
cally controlled.
HOOVER PROPOSED
II propose that you take steps
to establish an international
laboratory of criminolOgy to be
housed in the Department of
Justice under the general super
vision of Director ]. Edgar
Hoover, Of the Bureau of Inves-
tigatiOn.
"Such a laboratory should
also have an advisory commit
tee comprised of members of
the International Association
of Chiefs of Police and a com.
mittee of scientists serving as
cOnSultantS."
Director O'Rourke further Sug.
gested that the American judici.
ary be invited to appoint COM
mittee to study findings Of the
laboratory to determine what
would constitute legal evidence.
He explained:
ut is well known that at
present the same type of evi-
dence is accepted in one court
and rejected in another be.
case there is no authentic
findings in the field of crimi-
nOIOgy."
Director Hoover has already
established a technical labora.
tory, he pointed out, which has
not only been instrumental is
securing convictions of guilty per.
sons but in freeing innocent
prisoners.

ut is my earnest opinion that
the best way to keep women
from factiOnal antagonism and

Mack as Manager

New York, Oct. 26. - @ - Babe
Ruth's uncertain status with the New
York Yankees apparently is going to
furnish the "hot stove" league with
its principal item Of conversation this
winter.
Since the Babe made his famous
pronouncement at Detroit during the
world series that he would not remain
with the Yankees simply rs pinch
hitter, rumorS have come thick and
fast, connecting his name with vari-
Gus managerial berths.
The latest one, widely circulated
Thursday, said Ruth would succeed
Connie Mack as manager Of the Phil
adelphia Athletics next season. Just
what basis in fact, II any. this yarn
might have still was to be learned
Friday for the story came when the
two principals, Mack and Ruth, were
on shipboard halfway out on the Pa
cific, on their way to Japan for a
baseball transforming tour.
Even so there were plenty Of de-
mails. Ed Barrow, business manager
Of the Yankees said that so far as he
knew there was no truth to the story.
Zone thing Is sure" he went on.
Ruth Is still on the reserve list Of
the Yankees and no request has been
made to us for his release or his trans
fer to another club"
All bunk" said John Shibe, vice
president Of the Athletics.
