Annual Crime Bill 15 Billion, Says Senator Senator Charles 0. Andrews of Florida, speaking before the Senate on February 19, 1940, declared that crime is costing the people of the United States 15 billion dollars annually. He said “We are—alarmed when we consider that crime is now the largest economic problem of the U. S., particularly with reference to the fabulous expenditures it involves. The annual cost of crime in this country is estimated to be 15 billion dollars and it will readily be admitted that a 15 billion dollar enterprise, even in these days and times, is large in every sense of the word. This predatory activity levies and collects a tax of nearly $l2O annually for every man, woman and child in our nation. Out of every dollar of national income, 25 cents must be charged off to crime. In order to present the problem in a still more realistic manner, may I say that this 15 billion dollar annual cost of crime is 400 percent greater than the annual national cost of education, which is a little over 3 billion dollars. In other words, the onslaughts of these criminal armies are costing us 400 percent more than we are spending on the education of the juvenile members of our community. It may be further noted that the annual cost of lawlessness is 25 per cent more than our total annual tax bill of approximately 12 billion dollars.” Senator Andrews said that 20 percent of the worst crimes are attributable to young persons who have not reached voting age, that one-fifth of the murders, thieveries, robberies and other crimes are committed by boys in their teens. This army includes more than 700,000 boys and girls. “Children,” said the Senator, “merge into crime because of deep-laid faults in society, such as poverty, idleness and because their elders too often neglect them for pleasure.”

SNAPSHOT GUI LiX SYMBOLS Of SUMMER Mwi > - H?' <as*y w " y

“The summer comes with flower and bee, —” THE beauty of flowers Is an attraction and a challenge to every camera owner. Frankly, good flower pictures are not easy to take and for that reason success brings more than ordinary satisfaction to the amateur photographer. Proper lighting, a large Image and patient work with the camera are the essentials of flower photography. The best camera to use is one with a long-extension bellows, enabling one to focus close to the flower, and having a ground glass focusing screen on which you can see the Image before snapping the shutter. But, if you haven’t such a camera, good work may be done with ordinary folding or box cameras, provided a portrait attachment is used to obtain a large image. This supplementary lens, which comes with a table of focusing distances, makes it possible to work within arm’s length of the subject Always use a tape measure to determine exactly the specified distance between lens and flower. Panchromatic film gives the best rendering of the tone contrasts among the colors. Flower pictures need to be vividly sharp; hence, a small lens opening should usually be used—f.l6 or f. 22 ,—or the smallest stop on box cam-

eras, and the camera should be on a tripod or held securely with a camera clamp. The exposure should be from % to one second. Wind is a problem, of course. At such close distances movement of the subject makes more difference. It is worth while to wait for a moment when the blossom is motionless. If you find the wind too blowy, devise a wind-breaker of some sort. Hazy days, or when the sun Is shining under light clouds, makes the ideal time for flower pictures. Direct bright sunshine is not desirable, but if you can’t wait for better conditions, give your subject the protection of a cheesecloth screen. Better results ore obtained in the early morning or late afternoon when the light is less harsh and comes from the side. This is especially true for cup-shaped flowers. Nearby foliage, or other blossoms not wanted, may be tied back with string or cut away. A piece of stiff gray cardboard placed behind the flower often is a better background than the natural one. Sometimes, if you are patient enough *o wait, a roving bee will enter the chalice of your flower. Click! Your patience is rewarded with a picture that is a perfect symbol of summertime.
