from my visit abroad no magic for
mula for dealing with crime, nor do
I ever expect to find one. It is q far
flung problem and the battle must be
fought on many fronts. You may be
assured. however, that the Depart
ment of Justice will not for q moment
abate its efforts in this field Of COM
mon concern. We hope to Go better
and better work as the days go by.
As you know there has been set %
in the Department, a police training
school which, under the remarkably
able direction of Mr.. John Edgar
Hoover, director of our Federal Bu-
reau Of Investigation. is offering train
ing facilities to selected groups Of
State and municipal police officers.
Gratifying Results Secured.
Our experience in this line of work
has been distinctly gratifying. A
group Of % such officers have already
been graduated. and we have on file
more than 300 applications for ad-
mission to our next session of the
school. We shall admit them to the
extent that our facilities and our
funds permit. I hope also to estab-
lish similar training school for
prison administrators and other peno-
logical officers under the experienced
direction Of Sanford Bates, head of
our Federal Bureau Of Prisons. More
over, desire to extend our work into
the field Of crime prevention. where
much effective co-ordinating work
can be done. Rom these schools and
bureaus, we hope. in addition to
technical training. to send out help
full impulses that will assist in the
mvigoration and in the integration
Of our whole law-enforcement struc-
ture throughout its varied jurisdic-
tions and in all its aspects.
In short, we are developing N the
United States method Of dealing
with crime that accords with our
constitutional limitations. the genius
Of our political institutions and the
traditions Of our people. The need If
controlling crime is one Of the most
exigent of our national problems.
There can be legitimate differences OF
opinion concerning appropriate reme-
dies for our economic and social ills,
but there can be no room for such
differences when the question is one
OF protecting our persons, our finan-
cial, industrial and business structure,
our families and our homes from the
predatory criminal and the menace
of the underworld. Unless our lives
and our homes are safe, unless there
De secure domestic peace in when
great human problems can be
thoughtfully dealt with, then all that
we strive to accomplish for the better
ment of our people rests upon the
treacherous sand of disrespect for
order and defiance OF law.

crime problem as we'll as they have
theirs. True, we have made great
progress. We have broken the backs of
the kidnapping bands. We have i'm
proved our facilities, we have strength
ened our law-enforcing agencies. we
have secured greater cooperation all
along the line and we are devoting our
thought and efforts with increasing
intensity to this national menace.
But much, much remains to be done.
We cannot relax our efforts for 4
moment and we cannot afford to fail.
The statistics I have cited are, Of
course, subject to certain explana-
tions, but these explanations do not
alter the ultimate fact. 1t has been
suggested, for example, that certain
acts are punished as crimes in the
United States which are not thus
dealt with on the continent of Europe,
such as drug addiction. drunkenness
and certain sex offenses. 1t Is fur
ther suggested that about five-sixths
Of all the automobiles in the world
are in the United States and that
offenses growing out of the misuse
of the motor car account for q sub
stantial proportion Of our crime.
Again 1t Is suggested that our prob
lem Of aSsimilating diverse strains
into our citizenship is responsible to
some degree for the situation under
discussion. Some foreign observers
point to the fact that prison sentences
in the United States are longer than
those in foreign countries and thus
our prison population accumulates.
Others have suggested that our tradi-
tional insistence upon the rights of
the individual has at times initiated
against control of persons of anti
social behavior. Another explana-
ton offered Is that apprehension and
punishment are much more swift and
certain abroad than in the United
States.
Problem Steadily Increasing.
Doubtless there Is some truth in all
OF these suggestions, but the fact re-
mains that We have an immense and
disproportionate prison population
that Is increasing all the time.

Representative O'Day looked
very trig and business-like in q
black wool tailored gown, with
a batteau neckline held at eth
er side with metal clips, and her
narrow-brimmed black hat,
which was turned up at the
back, was trimmed with black
quills and moire ribbon.
She is a perfectly delightful
person, rich in the knowledge Of
women's needs, and ready to put
her shoulder to the wheel to
help them. She is particular.
ly interested in immigration
and labor problems, and, it will
be remembered, she was vice
chairman Of q committee ap-
pointed by Nine. Secretary Per-
kinS to survey conditions on
Ellis Island.
Representative O'Day is very
modest about herself and her
aspirations, and extraordi-
narily grateful for the kind
ness that has been shown her
by the Congressman that she
has met. and the newspaper
people. She said, in her most
inimitable way, she had noticed

among the gentlemen of the

The master, Daniel Sands, al
ways ready to give pleasure and
good sport to everyone, was on

the Glenwood Farm and the
Fred farm, started a fox there
and circled around the Fred'S

where they lost.
They then got up a second fox

ran the fox in.
It was then 2 o'clock and If
It hadn't been so col dthey would
probably have started another
fox, but they had given Lord
Dorchester an excellent run and
he was greatly pleased. So en-
thUStaStic was he that Mr.. Sands
told him not to wait for him and

staff, so away he went, enjoying
it thoroughly and riding beauti-
fully, as all EngliShmen do.

they have been engaged in well

ber of years.
Mrs. Roosevelt said, when

she has not received an invita-

ing 30 per cent will be given

ApropoS of this, she spoke of
the help rendered cripples in

tive governments, who give a
certain percentage of employ
ment to those handicapped in
various ways.
This brought to mind the

Impressions CLEANED at q
series of receptions given
Sunday afternoon by promi-
nent hosts for distinguished
guests:
First of all, Mr.. and Mrs.
Arthur Francis Mullens'
party to honor Senator and
Mrs. Edward R. Burke, of
Nebraska, at their pictur-
esque home in Georgetown.
1t seemed that every mem
Der of the New Deal was
there, with Senators and
Representatives, executives
IN the various departments
of the Government, notable
from out of town, and a very
fine representation from
smart residential circles
here.
The long outer vestibule,
decorated with Christmas
greens, had a tiny fern-en-
clrcled grotto at one side,
which depicted the stable at
Bethlehem, with the tiny
Infant in His crib sur
rounded by miniature ami
mails mee-deep in straw.
Inside, the house was posi-
lively crowded to capacity,
especially the dining room,
where the daintily appointed
tea table was decorated with
an oblong plaque of vari-
colored spring flowers, and
ladies from official life took
turns in presiding at the
silver coffee and tea urns.
The hosts received qUith
the honor guests IN the
large drGaOing room qUhich
had its complement of rare
blooms. Both ladies. were
IN black, beautiful AFTER
noon go1OnS of VelVet, each
made IN a different style,
but each exceedingly be-
coming. Mrs. Mullen is
grGci0usmess persomified,
and since coming to Wash
tngt0n, has not only become
a leader IN society here but
q devoted and ardent
qUOrker IN charitable move-
mentS.
The tall and handsome son
Of the household, Arthur, jr.,
made a very efficient assist
ant host, greeting everyone
in the most hospitable way
and introducing them to
other guests. Present, too,
was his fiancee, Miss Exilona
Hamilton, and many took the
opportunity to express good
wishes to them for their fu-
ture, for it was their first
public appearance" since
the announcement of their
engagement last Thursday.
Miss Hamilton, who is
blonde and exceedingly
pretty, looked very smart in
a black gown with the bodice
of gold satin, and her black
hat had Paris" written all
over it.
Next came a stop at Mr..
and Mrs. Louis Caldwell s
home in Cleveland Avenue,
which occupies a point of
land encircled with tall
cedar trees, and has a beau
tifully Handicapped garden.

house, which its present

Roses and stevia were used
effectively in the decoration
Of both rooms, and lamps
placed about on the tables
cast a soft, mellow glow.
Mrs. Barlow S. Weeks, Of
New York, who is visiting the
Attorney General and Mrs.
Cummings at "Ruthven,
and who has the most charm
ing apartment in New York
at the Park Lane, will enter
tain at a dinner on January
%, there, for Mrs. John
Charles Turner, also of New
York, who has just con-
cluded a very delightful
visit here with the Cum
mings, and for Mr.. and Mrs.
Louis A. Cushman. This lat
ter trio of good friends will
leave a day or two after the
dinner for Florida, where
they have spent several win
ters together.
Pearl Bennett, who has
many friends in the Capital,
is spending this winter at
Westward Ho, one Of the
newest hotels in Phoenix,
Ariz., and with Mrs. Edward
A. Marshall, who also has
spent much time here, was
one of the promoters Of the
st. Luke Ball given there
last week, which was an out
standing event in that region.
Friends of Senator and
Mrs. Robert D. Carey, of
Wyoming, will be grieved to
hear tn at the formers

Carey, were killed in a motor
accident in Cheyenne on

days in Miami, with one Of
her schoolgirl daughters, re-
turned to her home in Wes-
ley Heights during the past
week.
Glimpsed calling on one of
her neighbors in this charm
