PARIS POLICE CHIEF THROWS FEAR IN GANGS Parisian Capital Free of Organized Bands of Criminals By Stewart Brown (United Press Staff Correspondent) Paris, April s—(UP)—Jean Chlap pe. genial and short statured Chief of Police who sits like a mighty dictator upon the police throne of Paris, claims with pride that Paris is a city without a single “racket” or instance of gang crime. Paris has its crimes, he admits, but they are crimes committed by individuals and not by organized groups. The methods used here pale in comparison to the shot gun,a machine gun, and bomb methods reported in tlie United States'. Marseilles, tlie Chicago of France, has a high record for murder and robbery but it is all done on an unorganized, slip-shod scale. Organized "high jacking ’ is a novelty in France, although occasionally a gang of six or a dozen men will agree to divide their spoils in return for certain “poaching” rights in specified territories. The Apaches of Paris tremble before Jean Chiappe's blue coated policemen. French policemen are sweet with the ladies but tough with the men and they are allowed considerable liberty in dealing with suspects. As far a» is humanly possible the police of Paris are recruited from the provinces so they will have no friends to please or groups to bow before when they patrol the city This system makes the average Paris policeman a bitter enemy of Im criminal and despite his low salry he is one of the hardest persons in Fiance to bribe. They are trained like soldiers and the criminal is considered their enemy. That is one reason, Chiappe explains, why most of the crimes committed in ■'rance are eventually solved. The number of crimes has shown a steady increase in Paris and the provinces but so far the police are unable to trace a growth of gangsterism in France. An Apache may murder a person for 50 cents lint he would never dare to offer a Paria policeman 50 cents to allow him to murder another person for SSO. Paris Is particularly pestered at this moment by bank frauds and swindling games but they are not done on an organized scale. It is always some “master mind" who makes all the money single handed and goes to jail alone. Americans are of the opinion that there is a gigantic organization of windier.s and confidence men who prej on Americans but such is not the case. There are 20 to 30 such men working in Paris and the police consider them rather harmless sot they usually prey on the sort of American who Is crook enough to believe he is going to get a stolen diamond ring worth $2,000 for SIOO. I The \>olice more dr less consider ! this legitimate business if Americans are gullible enough to Call. 0 — ARRIVALS Mr. and Mrs. George H. Phillips of Stockton, California, are the parents of a boy baby born to them April 2. This is the first child in the family. Mrs. Phillips was formerly Miss Henrietta Coffee of this city.

Second year students who will be admitted to the third year ot study included LeLoss M.- O'Brian, Evansville; Donald D. Jenning.-. Newcastle, and Wayne L. Whittaker, Elkhart. o Critic Always With Us The human race Is divided Into two classes —those who go ahead and do something, and those who sit siill and inquire: “Why wasn't it done the other way?''—Oliver Wendell Holmes. . o Let's Have It All “In our diet we need copper as well as Iron.” says a hemoglobin expert in Woman's Home Companion. Why_not zinc and lead? Enough people already have plenty of brass. Good Advice to Smokers The English magazine Punch is credited with the origin of the phrase. “Learn to smoke slow. The other grace is to keep your smoke from people's faces." | '' - - — Lose Screwi I If loose screws are d»awn out of i furniture, dipped into glue and I screwed back quickly, they will 1 stay put.
