State Warninq
Cuts Speeding
In Maryland
HyuttsviIIe Arrests
Over Holiday Period
Fewer Thun Lost Week

Maryland's warning of a 15-day
suspension of licenses for drivers
caught speeding over the Labor
Day holiday appears to have had
the desired effect. If available re-
ports reflect the pattern through
out the State.
In the Hyattsville area only 10
persons were booked for speeding
from 6 pm. Friday to midnight
last night. Eight were out-of-
state drivers. During the previous
week end. a total Of 18 arrests
were made for speeding in the
same area. Nine were from out Of
State.
"a Arrested in Silver Spring.
At the Montgomery County po-
lice station in Silver Spring "a
arrests were reported among holi-
day motorists. compared with 81
for the previous week end.
Montgomery County police at
Rockville said the bad weather
Saturday and Sunday kept traffic
volume below expectations.
The State Department of Motor
Vehicles is awaiting results Of
court hearings to begin suspending
licenses. Out-of- State drivers will
be reported to their home States.
The area covered by the arrests
reported by Hyattsville includes
Baltimore boulevard between the
District and Laurel, one of the
busiest highways in the State.
Hearings to Be Given.
w. Dana Rudy. assistant to
Commissioner Thomas B. r. Mudd
of the Motor Vehicles department,
said it will take about two weeks
for the department to receive re-
ports of convictions. A forfeiture
of collateral is considered the
same as a conviction. he said.
When the reports are received,
the violators will be summoned to
hearings at their county seats to
determine whether there are miti-
eating circumstances.
A 15-day suspension is the mini
mum to be imposed, Mr.. Rudy
said. Persons previously convicted
of speeding may have their Ii
censes revoked for as long as IL
months. he added.

Dairy Requests

On Outside Milk
Attorney Declares
Order Will Cause
Shortage in District

The attorney for Embassy Dairy
today requested the District COM
to re-examine their
order earlier this year barring
from the District all milk pro-
duced on farms not inspected by
city health inspectors.
The attorney. Robert E. Lynch,
said that if the order goes into
effect there will be an insufficient
milk supply for District consum-
ers. Mr.. Lynch invited District
health officials to check latest
statistics, which he said confirm.
the statement.
Not a Member of Group.
Embassy is the only major dairy
firm here that does not belong to
the powerful Maryland and Vir-
ginia Milk Producers Association.
Milk sold by the association mem
bers here meets with the ap-
proval of city health authorities.
Milk produced by Embassy is to
be excluded from local sale effec-
tive November /.
Mr.. Lynch asked the Commits.
sionerS to reScind or modify their
order because it involves milk
coming from producers approved
by the United States Public
Health Service, if not District
health authorities.
Hearings Are Cited.
The lawyer declared that recent
public hearings conducted by the
city heads on the milk question
showed that USPHS-inspected

quality and purity" to that pro.
duced on District-inspected farms.
The letter to the Commissioners

Report 10 ABA
Urges Federal
CriimeAgency
Clearing House Would
Collect information
On Nations Rockets

A report just prepared Tor the
American Bar Association rec
ommends that a central Federal
agency be established to dissemi-
nate information on organized
crime.
The idea is to collect all avail
able information on racketeers and
their operations, then pass the
word along to local law enforce
ment authorities for action.
The report was drawn by ABA'sI
Commission on Organized Crime.
1t will be presented to the associa-
ton at its convention September
1919 in San Francisco.
The commission recommends
the Federal clearing house because
it find organized crime is a con-
tinuing national problem, despite
a current lull.
Narcotics Cited.
The report cites narcotics as one
OF the extremely serious problems
needing attention and says pro-
fessional gamblers are becoming
active once more.
The commission says it found
leaders of organized crime are re-
tanning power by investing in
legitimate business. It states that
underworld figures are moving
cautiously because of recent inves-
LEGATIONS. It also observes that
public Indignation helped reduce
the volume of crime but adds thatl
the level of public interest is tool
low to insure permanent reduc-
ticn.
Findings Of the commission areI
based upon answers received from
officials in all 48 States and the
District of Columbia, prosecutors,
probation authorities. policemen,
civic organizations and newspaper
editors.
Emphasizes Need.
The report says many law en-
forcement officials emphasized the
need for Federal coordination if
organized crime is to be fought
successfully. It states:
Nowhere is the need for Fed
eral action to assist law enforce
ment stressed more urgently than
in the field of collecting, co-or-
dinating and disseminating in
formation about organized crime.
Organized crime can be effec-
lively repressed only by top-level
intelligence work in local police
departments"
It goes on to say police execu-
tives and crime commissions ad-
vocate the establishment of in
telligence divisions within police
departments, to keep racketeers
under continuous surveillance.
But, to be effective, it states, the
departments have to get infor-
nation about criminals coming
into their Jurisdictions.
No Central Agency Now.
At present, the report says,
there is no governmental agency
with responsibility to check on the
movements of racketeerS who
achieve immunity by going from
one locality to another, or by
living in one locality and doing
business in another.
Walter P. Armstrong of Men,
phis, heads the ABA Commission
on Organized Crime, and City
Magistrate Morris Ploscowe of
New York is executive director.
Among those consulted in the
survey were Chief Judge Bolitha
j. Laws of the United States Dis
trict Court for the District of
Columbia; James v. Bennett, di-
rector Of the Federal Bureau of
Prisons; Rudolph HALEY, who was

Breitzke.
Gibbons, who actually original
ed the mob control plan several
years ago following the Peoria
street riot in Chicago, personally
had charge of police action along
with Breitzke.
Introduction of this program
came in the form of classes to
officers of the force on how to
act in racial situations and on
how to handle mobs. All of this
was done efficiently under Glib
bon's direction.
If the mob had been allowed to
do as it pleased, it could have
meant danger for the thousands
of Negroes who work in the Stock
Yards for their living.
Commenting on this, Wishner
said:
The police department did the
best job in Chicago history in
dispensing the crowd. This is in
deed encouraging. When the
police department enforces the
law, and let's the mob know that
it is going to enforce a citizens
right to live where he wants to
be he Negro or something else
then it has made a progressive
step in halting race riots in Chi
Cago."
Wishner added, however, that
because of the riot, it will be
much more difficult to get Ne
grocs to move in peacefully than
it may have been otherwise. He
said usually the human relations
commission works in advance
when a Negro plans to move to
white" community. He said the
commission usually works with
community organizations such as
churches and civic groups.

The neighborhood IN which the
violence occurred is considered
one of Chicago's toughest and
toughest communities. 1t has a
history of anti-Negro violence.
Located just behind Chicago's
famed Stock Yards, this neighbor-
hood was one of the roots of the
i'll famed 1919 race riots in Chi
cago Some of its present resi-
dents were active in that violence
of more than 80 years ago. Sons
of these people were active in last
weeks violence. A number of
these families occupy the same
wooden homes they dwelled in in
1919.
Mrs. Garrett bought the home
about a month ago for $500,
with a down payment of $500.
She and her attorney did not act
through a real estate agent. The
home was cheap, compared to
usual prices in Chicago, because it
needed many repairs.
Bellamy said:
I'VE bought it and sent in Ne
gro workmen to repair the place.
1t was old and worn out, that's
why we got it so cheap. All week
long these workmen were in there

In the buildings three apart
ments was one white family, Mrs.
Bertha Verran, at $50 a month.
Another of the apartments had
been rented to a Negro family for
occupation as soon as decoration
and repairs were completed.
Hoodlums literally destroyed
the building, and Mrs. Verran
was forced to leave her home be-
cause of the violence. Nobody can
! live there now.
