Good Backgrounds Are Natural or Neutral

we call a natural background.
one that serves as a stage setting
for the action being performed by
the person in your picture. A
proud fisherman would probably
look best against the wooded bank
of his favorite stream, the profess
sor at his desk in his -book-lined
study. The garden would be 4
natural setting for the attractive
young girl carrying a basket OF
flowers, the home workshop for
the "do-it-yourseH" weekend car
penter.
Whichever type OF background
you choose, however, remember
that color contrast is important for
the best results. BE sure to pose
light subjects against rather dark
backgrounds, and vice, versa. You
can readily see that a dark green
hedge would be poor background
choice for a dark-haired girl in a
black dress--but she would GER
tainly be a stand-out against a
white garden-gate or a cream

PARIS. Jan. 5.-The govern

France is planning a thorough
shakeup of the National Defense
Agency, from which informa-
ton was permitted to leak to
Communist agents.
The leaks came to light three
months ago. There have been
seven arrests so far, including
two high officials Of the pernla-
nent Secretariat-G General Of Ma
tional Defense.
The reorganization plan calls
for stripping the secretariat Of
some of its functions and about
Is percent of its personnel.
The secretariat works under
the National Defense Council.
The NDC brings together top
staff officers and cabinet mem
bers concerned with defense
matters, plus the Premier and
the President Of the republic.
1t handles top defense problems.
such as the National Security
Council in the United States.
The secretariat's main job is
to get together information for
the council. In its preamble, the
REORGANIZATION bill COMPLAINS
that the secretariat often went
beyond this task and tried to
carry out policy. This will not
be permitted under the reor-
ganization.

Today's criminal in many re-
spects is far more dangerous
than the gangs OF 90 years ago.
FB1 Director J. Edgar Hoover
said today.
"The difference" he noted In
a year-end report to the Attor-
ney- General. ''is reflected In the
fact that the effectiveness of law
enforcement has made tremen-
dous progress and the w0uld-be
gangs do not have the oppor-
tunity they once had Of becom-
ing entrenched."
When he was talking Of the
gangs Of the Prohibition era, he
referred to Dillinger, Barker,
Karpis and their mobs (which
spread terror In the past"
Despite the improved tech
niques Of law enforcement
agencies. however, Mr.. Hoover
reported that more serious
crimes were committed in the
United States in 1854 than IN
any previous year in the Ma
tion's history.
Cites Steady Increase.
Serious crime, he noted, has
been increasing annually since
i945. Preliminary figures for
1854. he said, reflect that the
number of serious crimes DUR
ing the year increased by ap-
proximately 5 per cent over
such crimes in 1858.
The District has been bucking
the national trend. District
police figures for the first II
months Of 1854 show a Is per
cent decrease In serious crime
here.
Nationally, Mr.. Hoover re-
ported:
"The past year viii record q
record high for the past 10 years
in crimes Of robbery, aggravated
assault, rape. burglary and
larceny"
Banks particularly felt the
crime rise. The report showed
bank robberies totaled 307 as
compared with 248 in 1858: bank
burglaries, l76,as compared with
154 in 1885,. and bank larcenies,
"a, compared with is in 1858.
Convictions under the Federal
Bank Robbery Statute totaled
ais last year, compared with 1893
In 1853.
The FBI investigated LOGS
bank entertainments and defal-
cations under Federal laws last
year.
"Such crimes. wherein trusted
and respected persons violate the
condolences imposed in them,
invariably have community wide
ramifications, Mr.. Hoover noted.
THE FB1 with increasing fire.
quency is observing cases where
in shortages have been concealed
over q period of years by skillful
manipulation of accounts and
figures"
On civil rights investigations,

tionS. MIR. Hoover said this as
signment has become increas-
ingiys more difficult in view Of the
extensive underground opera
tions Of the Communist Party
and the necessity Of identifying,
locating and keeping abreast oi
those selected for important
Communist Party work.
13l Reds Arrested.
To date. he reported. l3l Com
munist Party leaders have been
arrested on Smith Act conspiracy
charges and 81 have been con-
victed In Federal courts.
"The need for eternal vigilance
against subversion by followers
OF the Communist Party" he
said. becomes more necessary
with the worldwide rise of
'neutralism' and the intensified
Soviet propaganda program of
peaceful co-existence.'
"The Communist action pro-
gram Of the United States is
being geared to cause a lower
ing of our guard which, If sue
cessful. could have far-reaching
and disastrous consequences"
