LESS CRIME. SWIFTER JUSTICE WITH COMPULSORY PRINTING fingerprinting for All Oolt'ndt'd First as Protection for Innocent; Also Aid in Proving Identification WASHINGTON, (UP)—If fingerprints were as compulsory as birth certificates there would be less crime in the United States and justice would be swifter, the bureau of investigation of the department of justice believes. Officials admit, however, that the public will have to be educated to the

idea before any federal fingerprint law can be passed. "Law abiding citizens are beginning to realize that fingerprinting may mean death to a criimnal, but that it also may mean life anil liberty to an innocent man. woman or child,” said an assistant to the director of the bureau. ‘•A tourist losing his passport in a foreign country could more readily obtain a duplicate if his fingerprints were on file in Washington. Every police station has fingerprinting equipment, and this can be done in a matter of minutes. As soon as they are checked at headquarters a new

passport could be issued without further delay.” This is not the only advantage of fingerprint registration for law abiding citizens, it is pointed out. If there were sufficient demand by the public, fingerprints could be made at home and forwarded to headquarters, but it would be far easier to file the fingerprints shortly after the birth certificates and thereby, in thousands of instances, prevent crime rather than detect it, officials argue. Human beings, many of them at least, would think twice before committing a crime if they knew their fingerprints were on file at

When J. P. Morgan, 69. ailing world-famous financier, arrived by tiain at his Glen Cove, L. I., home, attendants were forced to carry hipi from the Pull man to a stretcher because of his condition. His visit to his sister in West Manchester, Mass., was cut short when he suffered an attack of acute neuritis which relatives said was not serious, terming reports of his illness as "greatly exaggerated.”

‘‘headquarters” and that their convicj tion would be swift. J. Edgar Hoover, director of the bureau of investigation, says: | “Long since has the time passed when criminals hid in dark alleys or sulked in dark basements. The day of the mask and dark lantern is over. Crime lives next door to you. Crime often plays bridge with you. Crime dances with your sons and daughters. These persons of the under-fiith are not simply poor boys and girls or moral invalids, as the super-senti-mentalists would have us believe. They are marauders, who murder for a headline, rats crawling from their hideouts to gnaw at the vitals of civilization. True, they are dressed as we are dressed. they live as we live and often far better, owing to the rich rewards of their ‘profession,’ but their standards of life are those of pigs in a wallow, their outlook that of vultures.” Fingerprints can be ‘‘lifted” from playing cards, from cloth, metal, leather or paper. Anywhere that a fingerprint is suspected, a certain type of ‘‘dust” can be sprinkled over the surface which will reveal it if it is there, no matter how faint it may seem. In addition to the 12.610 finger-

prints of men and women who are viewed by the bureau of investigation as the most dangerous and deadly of the army of more than 3,000,000 persons whose fingerprint records are clear and who are and will continue to be, in all likelihood, lawabiding citizens. Twenty per cent of the 20th century crime is committed by persons not old enough to vote, statistics show. These minors should be home playing in their own backyards, but instead they are out stealing automobiles and committing nearly a thousand murders a year and tens of thousands of burglaries and larcenies. officials declare. Among the arguments advanced for universal fingerprinting are: Fingerprints never lie and no two ever arc alike. There are nine classifications of prints that are foolproof, and into these will fit the imprints of the fin gers of 1.849.185,359 all the people in the world. Burning will not change fingerprints. Scai' tissue will show, and if the skin grows back again it will be exactly the same as before the injury.

The values in any furniture are found in the style, the icood used, the workmanship, and the finish. Hat in the new dining room furniture there are many elever features which make it worth more. For example, in the new table leaves the hales for the pins are lined with steel for longer wear.

TABLE NEWS

Customer: 1 like the design of this dining room set. , And the chairs are very comfortable. Will they last?

BIG CHANGES Pp until about five years ngo the styles in furniture didn't change very much or very fast. If your furniture was ten or twenty years old, it looked all right. The furniture makers got worth'd because people were spending their money for other things and were not buying new furniture. So they derided to do something about it. They hired artists to design new styles in chairs, tables, beds, dressers, etc. And the artists certainly thought n$ some new designs! Some of them were w’tld and extreme, of course. Hut some were truly beautiful —a great improvement over the former styles. We have brought together many pieces of these newer styles which we think are beautiful. They are mighty well built, too. We should like to have you see them. You won't be urged to buy.

Salesman: See these braces on the corner underneath f And the sturdy frames? Yes, they will last. Customer: The table has extra leaves, hasn't it? 1 don’t see them anywhere. Salesman: No, you don’t see them because they are concealed right here under the table top. You don’t need to carry the extra leaves hack and forth when you change the size of the table. They are always clean, too. Customer: Isn’t that a clever idea! It is SO convenient. Salesman: And here is something else. When you want to make this table a little longer you merely pull out one end and the other half rolls out the other way. You don't need to go from one end to the other like you used to. A simple track and cog device does this for you. Customer: What won't they think of next? I think it is wonderful. Salesman: You will notice, too, that this table and this buffet have the corner posts doweled in place. The buffet drawers are mortised front and back. This set is built j to last.
