SCHOOL POLICE, 1,200 STRONG, AT GROSSINGS Organization Is Formed, Directed by Worley and Owen. An organization of 1.200 Indianapolis school police has been formed by the Accident Prevention bureau of the Police department under the direction of Chief Claude Worley and Lieutenant Frank Owen. The groups now are perfected in seventyfive grade schools. Last year the police numbered 1,000 in 104 schools, but the increased enrollment forced the added personnel, Worley says. The first night meeting with the parents will be held Sept. 28 at School No. 83. A series of these meetings was held last year, and an even more elaborate schedule is planned for 1928-29, Police officers will outline methods of accident prevention and will seek co-operation of parents in lowering the number 1 of automobile accidents. Chief Worley will give his first party for the school police Sept. 22, when the 1,200 will be entertained free at Washington ball park at a game between Indianapolis and Toledo. The right field bleachers will be reserved for the youngsters. Following a survey of the city, police have been staationed at dangerous corners during the time

Janitors Swim in Soap to Dress Up Tech High

Gallons Used by 40 Workers to Clean School for Opening. Enough liquid soap and furniture polish to “take a swim in” was used last month in cleaning and polishing Technical High School for the opening of school this week, says Ray Harmon, custodian. A matron, thirty-one janitors and eight power house employes are kept busy all year, but their most active time is August before school opening, and this August they used children are coming and going to school.

just fifty gallons of soap and ten gallons of polish. The entire seventy-six acres were policed for scraps of paper and rubbish. Every desk and all the woodwork in the eleven buildings was scrubbed and polished. This week while office workers and teachers labored to enroll the student body and battled against confusion, the janitors went calmly about their daily routine. “We have been accustomed to the routine of cleaning all summer, and the increase of students doesn’t make much difference to us,” Harmon said.

UNDERWORLD IS GIVEN WEALTH BY PROHIBITION Dry Laws Are Enforced Only by State of Public Opinion. Sweden tried prohibition. It failed. Now a rigid system of State control is being tried. successfully. William Philip Simms. Scripps-Howard forlgn editor, has made an intensive study of the plan, and herewith presents the ninth of a series on the workings ol the system. BY WM. PHILLIPS SIMMS Foreign Editor. Scripps-Howard Newspapers HELSINGFORS, Finland, Sept. 14.—What, after all. is the real purpose of liquor laws? Since my arrival in this part of the world where two entirely different systems of booze control are in full swing—Finnish prohibition and Swedish rationing—this question has confronted me time and again. If a purely theoretical dryness, or total abstinence, satisfies us and we

are indifferent to the actual drunkenness and graft and crime which accompanies It, total prohibition will give us what we seek. But if we insist upon positive results, an increasingly temperate population, a decreasing crime ratio and a general improvement in public morale, some form of positive liquor control, such as they have in Sweden, for example, seems imperative. Prohibition in Finland is working out precisely as it worked in Norway, Russia and Canada before those countries abandoned the experiment as unworkable, and just as it is now doing in the United States. It merely has turned the sale of booze over to a criminal under world. “You cannot enforce prohibition,” Says Dr. Ivan Bratt, Swedish temperance advocate and author of the system of control which bears hio name, so long as even a fair proportion of the reputable citizens of a community do not, in all conscience, consider the moderate consumption of alcohol as a crime.” In the three years nrior to the Swedish system being introduced, the average number of cases of drunkenness of persons between 15 and 30 coming to the attention of the police of Stockholm was 13.4 per thousand inhabitants. During

PAGE 19

1925, 1926 and 1927, under the system, the proportion was only 2.3 per thousand, a reduction of 83 per cent. Whereas in the pre-system days the tendency was for dr unkennels to go on increasing among the young folks, the opposite seems ~o be true now. This despite the fact that in Sweden the legal age is 13 and boys of this age may be served with drinks in restaurants when, meals are ordered. Finland, and the United States, 1 by outlawing liquor, have turned the control of their supply over to an unscrupulous, cut-throat, moneymad underworld which they are utterly unable to manage.
