Striking Crime Drop

Police Chief Murray's annual report
adds noteworthy chapter to local law
enforcement annals. The gratifying down.
ward trend Of major crimes In Washington
observed on monthly month basis during
the past fiscal year has continued until
striking decline Of 16 per cent for the year
has been recorded. The most significant
part of it all is that the drop in lawlessness
here occurred while the crime rate through
out the Nation was on the upgrade.
Even No. precinct, usually listed ahead
of all other sections of the city for preva
lence of large and small offenses, expert
enced a substantial reduction in serious
crimes in fiscal 1854. The drop there and
elsewhere can be attributed to more inten
sive police work, backed up by effective pros
ecutions and an evident stiffening OF court
sentences in felony cases. Jail statistics
show that more persons were being arrested
and committed than in other years.
e Significantly, the welcome crime de-
preston followed in the wake of activities
by revitalized and reorganized Metropoli-
tan Police Department The improved police
work resulted from the creation of new
inspection districts, with flying squadrons
Va FSCcIdu OcCCC61tCo OpCldIulS uIlOC4 q Co-

war system. Facilitating the expanded
setup was the availability of more men for
patrolling the streets in such troublesome
areas as the first and second precincts.
Many officers volunteered for compensatory
overtime duties, enabling the department to
maintain adequate patrols despite an under
manned force. Recruiting fortunately, has
begun to show good results, too.
OF course, the police, cannot afford to
relax, despite their fine showing statistically.

This would seem an auspicious mo-
ment for the United States Govern
ment to make q precise statement TO
the world through the United Nations.
Reiterating its profound conviction that
the appalling implications Of atomic
and thermo-nuclear conflict render re-
sort to war an unthinkable act for q
civilized nation, the United States
should then spell out In precise detail
the minimal requirements for prevent
ing global war.
Those requirements would appear to
include strengthening the United Ma
tions to give it the legal, judicial and
executive power to adjudicate inter-
nation disputes without recourse to vio-
lence.
Our Government has never spelled
out the required instrumentalities 1t
has not done so because, being a. de-
mocracy, and knowing that q Constitu-
tional amendment would be required
for acceptance Of participation In such

a Hopeful Comment

It may be that Secretary Dulles is in
real disagreement with some Of his admin
istration colleagues concerning the magni-
tude Of the threat posed by the attitude
and policies Of the Soviet Union.
Secretary OF Defense Wilson, for in.
stance, thinks the threat Of war has receded.
On the other hand. Mr.. Dulles, returning
from his NATO talks in Paris. put emphasis
on the point that there was complete
agreement" among the IA NATO council
members on the proposition that Soviet
policy continues to be directed toward weak
ening and dividing the Western nations. and
that "the threat to the free world has not
diminished" This implies conflict of view.
but 1t may be conflict which is more
apparent than real.
In any event, Mr.. Dulles shares the
generally hopeful estimate OF the progress
that Is being made, with the help Of new
weapons, in snoring up the defenses of
Western Europe.
He said that the report of the NATO
Military Committee, assuming a unity which
includes West Germany, shows for the first
time the means Of developing forward
strategy which could be relied on to protect
western Europe from invasion" OF course,
this Is an estimate Of the situation which
contemplates the use, II attacked, OF tactical
atomic weapons, and perhaps their strategic
use. It would be idle to talk about protect
ing Western Europe on any other premise.
Mr.. Dulles went step further, however
Thus" he said 1--WE see the means (assum-
ing continuing defense development) OF
achieving what the people OF Western
Europe have long sought-that is, form Of
security which. while having as its first
objective the preservation Of peace, would
also be adequate for defense and which
would not put Western Europe in a position
Of having to be liberated"
If this is not mere wiShful thinking, II
it is an estimate that is soundly based on
known facts and capabilities, 1t is indeed
