Safe Stolen In Night
Holds Only Papers

Whoever stole the safe from
the Masonic Temple Hall of Ia
koma Lodge, No. 20, at lis Car.
roll st. N. W., during the night is
in for big surprise when it is
broken open.
Herbert Dawes Lawson, jr., Of
Takoma Park, Md, who reported
theft of the safe, revealed there
is no money in it. He added the
box contains only records and
papers of the lodge.
Police were told that sometime
between S p. m. yesterday and
early today, entrance was gained
to the hall by jimmying the front
door. Several other doors in the
building were jimmied open and
the safe, which is three feet
square and weighss several hun.
dred pounds, was carted off. Out
side the building a jimmy and
blanket were found.

By E0alw Walsh Mclean

other team recognizes no rules of craftsmanship.
They must always march out in the open an easy
target for any mean sulking rat hiding and wait
ing to shoot them in the back.
The Attorney General and the Department Of
Justice have tried desperately to pass laws for.
bidding the sale of firearms to anyone unless his
speedy checking of arms.
Until the Lndbergh law came into effect, our
Department of Justice men had little enough
for protection against the criminals they sought
to capture. They had no guns and no fast cars
And now this decision of the court deprives them
of another much needed weapon 1t is as though
their guns were taken away from them again, and
they were told to get along with sticks.
Crooks Keep Track Of Police
Any crook with radio set can pick up police
calls, which gives him an obvious advantage
over his pursuers. In other words the crook can
listen in on the operations of the police, but the
police are not allowed to eavesdrop on the crirni-
nails, even though it is murder they are planning.
Among my friends are great many Depart
nleut Of Justice men and police officers, and I
know them to be fundamentally honest and
square. And II wire-tapping or any other method
they see Fit TO employ to land the lawless who
threaten our safety, will help them fight their

crooks and be done with it.
