U. $, EMPLOYS MORE THAN 25 KINDS OF COPS All but Three Major Government Branches Have Police Activities. £>/ £crirtp*y/wjrd .V ettspaper Alliance WASHINGTON. Sept 19. —At least *wenty-five different kinds of fedei il police will arrest you if you don't watch out. A survey of government, departments today revealed the fact that in all but three of the major departments of the government there are groups that have policing activities. In two of these, however, the war and navy departments, men are detailed as military police and they can arrest civilians who violate the laws on military or naval reservations. The treasury department, whose major purpose is to handle governmental fiscal affairs, has more policing activities than any other of the larger federal agencies. The department of commerce, which likes to be known as a. “service" agency, has three policing activities and the agriculture department and the interior department as many. Powers Are Increased Recent transfer of the prohibition bureau from the treasury to the department of justice gives the latter the best known police powers. But besides that activity, department of .justice agents and United States marshals and their deputies also can go out and put factious civilians in jail Besides its own treasury guards, the treasury department, is in charge of narcotic officers, secret servicemen, coast guardsmen and customs agents. Under department of commerce supervision, the bureau of aeronautics inspectors, steamboat service inspectors and bureau of navigation inspectors have some police powers. The interior department employs agents to stop illicit liquor trade in Alaska, it has its own Indian police w,ho watch over the Indian reservations. and its national park service employs rangers and park guards.

Employ Border Cops The labor department employs immigration border patrolmen and immigration inspectors The agriculture department also has its own police charged with watching its premises, its forestry bureau inspectors look after the national woodlands and see that no laws concerning them are violated, and then it has agents who, under the biological survey, see to it that no migratory fowl falls before hunters’ scatter guns. The postofflee department has a bureau of postal inspectors whose deeds of curbing postal law violations have made more than a few newspaper and magazine yarns. Only a Reservation The war and navy departments have, as has been told, their military police, who are concerned only with maintaining the peace and dignity of military reservations. The state department, now concerned with the question of whether or not, some of its diplomats may wear resplendent uniforms, says it has no policing activities whatever. A citizen of or a visitor to Washington faces arrest by at least four kinds of policemen, if he breaks the rules and regulations. In the District of Columbia, under federal supervision, there are the metropolitan police, the park police, the capital police and then a corps of about fifty secret, service men charged with guarding the WtTite House, BUILDING SHIP-SHAPED German Designer Typifies Industry of Hamburg in Design.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

WIFE !S ASKED BY NOAH BEERY TO COME HOME Motion Picture Actor Seeks to Settle Differences With Mate. En Times Special HOLLYWOOD Cal., Sept. 19. Noah Berry, motion picture villain, attempted to settle all differences with his wife today and asked her to return to their ranch home near here. The actor sent their son, Noah 111, as an emissary to the home of Mrs. Berry's friends, where she went after going to Las Vegas, Nev., to establish a permanent residence. Her unannounced departure from the ranch Sept. 8 caused great anxiety, and Beery enlisted the aid of police and federal officials in a search for her. Beery’s peace followed conflicting statements issued by the couple regarding their financial differences. “Mr. Beery wants me to come home, but I haven't made up my mind what I am going to do,’’ Mrs. Beery said- “The next move is up to him.’’ Beery’s demand for a federal investigation of Raymond Wells, motion picture director who was seen in Las Vegas with Mrs. Beery, may be ignored, government officials indicated. They declined to reveal the outcome of a preliminary inquiry, but said charges probably will not be filed
