WOMEN CROOKS PREY ! ON LONDON SOCIETY; ENTICES YOUNG MEN

Editor's Note: For several years the police of London and the continent have been baffled by the amazing robberies, frauds, and mystery crimes, involving hundreds of thousands of dollars and frequently costing human lives. Many of - the crimes have been attributed to , the high class women crooksof London's fashionable quarters tho "Women Crooks of Mayfalr." The United Press has been given special facilities for investigating the lives - J l . i wtA " T n A 1 tt a"

of fashion. , - By DAVID L. BLUMENFELD (United Press Staff Correspondent) ; Chapter II f LONDON, June 27 (United Press?) Louise is typical of a handful of "swell" women crooks who work and

prey on the society of Xiondon who

depend largely on night lifa lor their enjoyment. She and her types engineer big robberies which come to light only as reports of a famous society woman's loss of jewels in public places.

-At breakfast she reads her mail

mostly continental, calls for her steno

her letters and makes her plans for

the day. To see her sitting there in her silk

en kimono you would think you were at the breakfast table of a young society girl planning a days enjoyment

Louise i3, however, doing nothing of the sort. She is probably planning a way of getting an invitation to the house party of the Duke of X, with a view to enmeshingn some of the young

bloods" -who are likely to be there, for plucking. How She Operates. Or again, maybe, she is dictating a letter to her accomplices in Paris or Vienna, try lug to get a position for one of them a fashionable Jewelry store on the Rue de la Paix, cr again set,tlng a train in motion for smuggling into the country a consignment of expensive dope.

., Louise puts on her gown by Poiret and her hat by Paquin and sweeps out Into that glittering limousine. In the morning she will probably visit the fashionable stores where she is well known as a respected customer, make several purchases and then drive off In her limousine again, this time on business. 'Her way may lie in the downtown direction of Whitechapel or Limehouse. Here she leaves her car, putting a raincoat over her fashionable clothes, and disappears into a side Etreet. - What she does there is

never known to any save her accomplices who meet her at these rendezous But the results- become public later with the full light of publicity glaring down on a robbery or swindle of . huge proportions. . Who are Louise's accomplices? They are drawn from all classes. From Many Classes. First there are those society male victims who, bewitched will do anything to gain her favors. These give her Information of the big society functions, who is to be there, who is to wear diamonds, who is to wear pearls, and who rubies. The information once given, these society "bad boys" . are the hands that J"ltft" the jewels in

some dark corner behind the palms. . .Next come the chauffeurs. These,' or rather that class of chauffeurs whom she employs, are mostly dishonest taxidrivers, and private car drivers of doubtful morality. - After the chauffeurs comes a whole horde of underworld personalities at Louise's beck and call.: Waiters, discharged officers, con men, pseudo-detectives, one-time policemen, discharged nurses, actors and actresses of low class. Police Know Them. - The police know all about Louise. One day, they claim, they are going to get her. , But I doubt it. Louise is

too clever. She never does anything

herself. Louise merely pulls the strings. She pays her accomplices highly. She tells them, that they have only themselves to blame if they are caught, and only the knife between the ribs when they finish their sentence if they give away the 'TLone She Wolf." Another type of woman crook who is almost ubiquitous is the super-shoplifter. London has scores of them. They'll go into a store, arriving in a neat motor car, and first pay for all

their purchases. Then, after a lapse of time, they will open a credit account. After a further lapse the assistants begin to know and trust them until, one day, madams crook phones that store and asks for a consignment of Jewelry or dresses, to be sent to her flat. In due coursea young man arrives with the jewelry for her to choose. He drinks a cup of coffee or something else and wakes up' in an empty flat, minus hostess, minus the Jewels. (The End).

Summer static while annoying to, the novice still is Irot discouraging the amateur, who keeps on the lookout for clear nights and when one comes, fills it with traffic. Message work,

though not so heavy as during better weather, yet is proceeding, as anyone who listens in can tell. Local Richmond amateurs are keeping their stations in operation, although Richmond is reported to be off the route for the heaviest traffic, which passes either to the north or south of this city. Harold Cutler still works whenever he can get any station to work with,

hi3 latest report coming from Wash

ington, Penna., where he was reported very loud on detector only. He has calibrated his eet and is able to check rather closely on wave lengths now. Station 9BDB, belonging to Gerard Harrington, as it is the newest installation, also has been one of the

the busiest lately. Using a five watt1 tube, this station has worked up to 200 miles on loop modulation. Stations in all districts except the sixth and seventh have been worked, and the station has been heard in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina and West Virginia. Fred Clark has installed a counterpoise, and a Temote control, grca'ly im

proving his station. In reworking, he also has lowered his wave length to 150 meters, -with the result that he has been unable to raise anyone since. Wireless for Vacations

Besides Individual campers, who

have been unable to forget their new hobby long enough to leave wireless

sets at home, the large camps also are featuring wireless receiving and

Jn welcoming the convention. The

Chicago high schools are giving special instruction In radio engineering now, and have contributed displays to the show. ; Uewcastle Club. A radio club, with 15 members, has been formed in Newcastle. An attempt will be made to establish a sending station, which may be used also for broadcasting., Richmond amateurs will tune in for it, when established, in the hope of hearing Ralph Wolfe. Risser Williams and

Leonard Nicholson, of that city, who were regular attendants at the DX

Radio club meetings last winter. Iowa Farm Radio Service. Iowa has been added to the list of states enjoying a regular radio service for farmers. Station WOI at the Iowa state college, on June 13, started Bending weather predictions at 9:30 in

the mornine and 12:40 in the after

noon. A night weather report, and weekly crop report will be added soon. A 485 meter wave length is used. Farmers will be able to receive the information sent out from 12 to 15 hours earlier than in the papers. Growth of Broadcasting There are now 253 broadcasting stations. Most are in the northeastern part of the United States or on the Pacific coast. There are very lew in

the south and between the Rocky

mountains and the Mississippi Talking to Ghosts

It is suggested, in the last issue of

This show is one move in Chicago'3 bid for leadership in the radio industry. "Chicago should aid can be the radio center as Detroit is the auto

Peace by Radio What congresses of the world's diplomats were not able to do to insure the world's peace, Will Irwin in "Populor Radio" suggests may be done

through the internationalizing force of radio. The common interest, and, still

more important, the chance it offers to cement closer acquaintances, may clear away many misunderstandings. International Morse, in Europe at least, is taking the place of the Esperanto, the universal language that was the dream of many idealists a few

Very Nice Young Lady

CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 27. Because a common pleas judge told a trial jury that Helen Burke was a "very nice young lady" Miss Burke loses a 'quarter of a $10,000 judgment

she had secured against the Cleveland Railway company for injuries, according to a recent decision of the court

of appeals.

Judge Willis Vickery, one of the appeal judges, said he was unable to

understand wny a very nice young

lady is entitled to recover more than a very ugly old woman, if the injuries

were of the same nature, adding that
