RATIO Of POLICE
FACTOR IN CRIME
Hoover Says Per Capita
Count of 2 Per ! 900 Curbs
LaWbreakinq.

Cities which, like Washington, have
two or more policemen per 1000 in
habitants, have less crime than
comparable communities with smaller
police departments, according to sta
tistics announced today by the Fed
eral Bureau Of Investigation.
Pointing out that study has dis
closed definite relationship between
the amount OF crime and the number
OF police employees" J. Edgar Hoover.
F. B. I. director, said cities with ap-
proximately one policeman per 1000
inhabitants reported 80 per cent more
murders per 100000 of population
than cities with twice the number
of policemen.
The cities with the smaller police
forces, he said, reported ST per cent
more robberies, SO per cent more ag-
gravated assaults. ~ per cent more
burglaries and At per cent more thefts
than the cities with double strength
forces.
The study was based on crime fig
u1es for 1886. At police headquarters
here it was stated that Washington
has % policemen for every 1000 citi-
zens. The authorized strength of the
local police force is 1891 men. Last
year the department reported 1929
serious crimes. Figures for other cities
were not available today.
The F, B I. analysis showed there
were, in 1886, five murders for each
1000 inhabitants in the well-policed
cities, and slightly less than 10 mur-
ders per 1000 persons in the less
adequately policed municipalities.
Detailed figures will be published in
the F. B. I. bulletin Uniform Crime
Reports. to be issued the middle Of
next month.

At supper of this kind, we recommend
that our readers select Buttermilk Rolls

makes the rolls particularly tender and lends
very pleasing and unusual favor. You will
note that our recipe calls for poppy seeds
