THE

The Popularity of Crime By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

NEW YORK CITY, Feb. 13. Now that the crime wave shows every indication of becoming permanent, many remedies are being advanced for its control. It is no longer believed that the late war is entirely to blame for present conditions. There must be, our authorities on criminolorv Rav. other reasons for such an enduring reign of violence. Some believe that the wave would shrink perceptibly in size if only our metropolitan forces were larger and equipped with all the latest devices of war, such as airplanes and ga3 bombs and instructions to kill the enemy at sight. Others believe that the repeal of the eighteenth amendment would have a soothing effect upon our criminals. The New York police declare that quicker trials and a denial of bail to criminals of desperate character would greatly ameliorate their problems., Still others assert that what is chiefly needed is a complete change of attitude on the part of the public, which is not sufficiently stern toward crime. While we do not openly give our moral support to rob beries and murders, they say, we are by no means as antipathetic to crime as we should be. In support of this last contention, it Is pointed out that the temper of this country has always been unusually violent. Statistics show that more murders are committed annually in the United States than in any other part of the civilized world, with tho possible exception of Mexico. When George Bernard Shaw recently declar ed that he was afraid to come to America, he had just received our latest annual figures on homicides, with special mention in regard to lynchings. This reputation for unique and unparalleled crime is be no means re cent, either. It has long flourished in Europe. Years ago, a celebrated English writer, when taunted by an American concerning the great Brit ish losses in the Boer war, replied that his country had not lost as many men in the war with the Boers as wero murdered every two years ia the United States. Wholesale American Murders.' "Not only is murder more prevalent in this country than in foreign countries,' declares one criminologist, "but we have here - whole classes of offenses which other countries do not have to contend with at all. We have, for Instance, men who make It a business to commit train robberies, armed with dynamite and other weapons. Why Is it that in Canada, our nearest neighbor, train robberies seldom oc cur? - In our southern states we have murderous family feuds, lynchings, and, recently, the unique activities of the KuKlux Klan. These crimes are peculiar to this country. Yet why should this be so?" This student of the question be lieves that is largely because Ameri cans unconsciously possess a rather sympathetic attitude toward most crimes. Robbery, for instance, unless committed by a professional burglar, is not frowned upon half as vigorously

as it should be. When a bank clerk absconds with the contents of the bank, he is seldom harshly censured, unless by reason of his act the bank is forced to close its doors and money is lost by his friends and neighbors. This indulgent attitude on the part of the public, moreover, is usually reflected in light sentences delivered by judges for crimes of this kind. In a recent case, a man who stole $100,000 from a bank was given only seven years. , Murder is another crime which does not inspire as much horror in the public as one might think. This i9 clearly shown by the numerous acquittals handed down by juries . in murder vm, uuucua. u. convict a nan for wife murder, for' Tl ' - . t jtteei ..ia. a instance, declares a prominent crimi nal lawyer, and women are scarcely ever convicted for killing their husbands. Legal Killings Make Heroes. Curiously enough, this lawyer who believes that , too much leniency is shown toward criminals, does not b5; lieve in capital punishment for murder, because, he says, it simply makes a hero of the defendant and is responsible for more acquittals than any other one thing. "As the state authorizes hanging or electrocution," he declares, "a sentimental attitude is created from the beginning. The state seems to he seeking a life, and everybody has sympathy for what may have been done merely in the heat of passion. It is an old and well-known fact in criminal jurisprudence that acquittals increase when penalties appear too severe, and that a crime can often be made less frequent by reducing the punishment. In other words whenever there is a steady increase In acquit tals, the first probable cause of it is a public dislike of the penalty. "The spectacle of a man fighting for his life appeals strongly to the sentimental character of our people, and at every murder trial the newspapers and the public abound in such statements as 'He is making a fine fight for his life'!" Crime also undoubtedly Is greatly encouraged in this country by the practice of bonding criminals and by the long waits that occur before cases are brought to trial. According to Commissioner Enright, of the New York police department, the ease with which criminals obtain bail is one of the greatest evils the police must con tend with. He cites the case of a man who was arrested three times during the past year and every time bad his bail ready. i "All three cases," he said, "were awaiting trial against him. A few weeks ago we again caught him redhanded at a hold-up trick. Somewhat surprised, I asked him what he wa3 up to, trying another trick while he wras out on bail in three cases. Hi3 answer was that he needed the money to pay the bail bonds and his lawyer." Hoard Gains for Bail. It is this experienced type of criminal who "knows the ropes" who is playing the most conspicuous role in

the crime wave. The first offendar has yet to learn the power of what crooks call "fall money", is unable to obtain a bond and has to remain in jail. As the law provides that those held in jail must be tried first, his case soon comes up for trial, and it is well known in the criminal world that a speedy trial means a harsh sentence. ' When the first offender comes out of prison after having served his term, he knows this." Hence, his first act is to "pull another job" thajt will bring him in enough money for bail in case he is again arrested. "Every clever crook has this 'fall money stowed away to provide hia bail bond whenever he needs it," Commissioner Enright says. "The oldtimer would no more think of touching that money than of flying, even if he were starving. Thatmoney, or pos sibly the amount may be in jewels, often is deposited long before 'a trick is puljed.' Then if the crook 'fails', rs they call it, he has his bail instantly t ,-,., at hand Commissioner Enright does not b lieve that prohibition has had any ef fect upon the increase In crime. Neith er floes he believe that it can be cut down by arming the police force with gas bombs and airplanes. The New York police have never been more ef ficiently armed than at present, and there has never been a higher mor tality rate in the seivice. The great remeay lies in speeaing up tee pro cedure by which the ciook is removed from private life into prison.
