THE MACHINE AGE APPLIED TO CRIME Methods Employed by Criminals Demand New Police Methods, Bankers Association Official Declares. USE by criminals of modern technological developments such as automobiles, machine guns and airplanes have given them advantages which old-fashioned local and disconnected police systems are powerless to combat and the situation demands the broader modern protection of State police systems, James E. Baum, deputy manager American Bankers Association in charge.of its crime investigating department, declares in the protective section of the American Bankers Association Journal. “The Association's Protective Committee has repeatedly urged the advantages of extending slate police systems beyond the nine eastern States which have enjoyed this protection for many years.” Mr. Baum says. "The time has passed when we can safely rely upon the disconnected and oftentimes ineffective methods of local and county police. The advent of automobiles and better r ads. to say nothing of machine guns and airplanes, demands the same wide latitude in authority and field of operation be given the police no less than the criminal.” . Statewide Police Plans Best He quotes a Kansas judge as saying that "our system of sheriffs arid constables was not designed to meet pres-ent-day conditions. As a system of law enforcement. It is as out of date as old common-law pleading, both evolved about the same time. The semi-mili-tary, highly trained State police officer owing allegiance, only to State laws, is the m "-t effe ’live agency f r order yet brought forth." •'Every year the robbery experience of banks in the nine States having State police proves the merits and urgent need of State-wide police protection,” says Mr. Baum. "Last year, for example, there were 38 bank holdups fn Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and West Virginia where State police forces are operated," he continues. "Although this total is exceptionally high due to an unprecedented number of robberies in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, it is little more than half the number of daylight bank robberies suffered in 1930 in Illinois alone. Furthermore, this total of 38 robberies in the nine eastern States was exceeded in California; where there were 42 bank holdups, and in Ohio where banks suf-, sered 40 similar attacks. Holdups Fewer L’nder New Plan "If we extend comparison of the robbery experience in these States enjoying State-wide police protection to the record in eight central and far western States, we find a total of 304 bank holdups in the latter group. The odds, therefore, continue to be not less than 8 to 1 against the banks in these western States, where they are denied the speedy, coordinated action of State police and their niodern means of transportation and communication. The same comparison holds true of the farmers’ losses through robberies of livestock, poultry, produce, etc. "Moreover, these State police forces invariably yield an operating profit in the amount of fines collected and the value of stolen property recovered. Bankern interested in cutting down the cost of robbery insurance might well consider this job of extending State police systems as a timely, co-opera-tive service to be undertaken alongside the farmers." BANK EMPLOYEES SENT TO SCHOOL Modern Scientific Financial and Management Method* Taught Throughout Country. r |’HE American Institute of Banking * Section of the American Bankers Association conducts 223 chapters, or local banking schools in as many cities throughout the country. One large city chapter has almost 6,000 students, who are combining formal theoretical and practical banking studies with their daily working experience and other places have these schools with a thousand to two thousand students. In addition there are fifty study groups |q small communities with some 6,000 enrollment*. AU told over 42,000 bank people are taking these courses —not only clerks, but junior officer* and even senior officers in some of the more advanced work. The work of the institute has been declared to be "a dynamic. economic force, pouring into banking a broadening, deepening stream of better qualified bankers than could be developed merely by the daily workings of banking Itself,” and II pa* been suggested . that every bank worker should be compelled to combine institute courses with his work. A good many banks now make it a part of the contract of .employment that an employee shall undertake to render himself proficient and trustworthy in banking by taking institute work and others make successful progress in this educational aspect of banking a pre-requisite to promotion. Plans are being developed to make the benefits of banking education through this organisation more generally available in the rural district*. —o—— — ■ BENTON BUREAU TO MEET The Benton Township Farm Bureau will meet in the Benton school house on Thursday evening, Sept. 24. Dr. H. A. Wagner, foot specialist from Elkhart will give an illustrated health lecture. Some special music and readings as well as the regular business session will form the evening's program. The public is invited.

SELECTING THE "SHOW PECK” POTATOES Potato, growers in Indiana loot forward to the two premier shows of ;he Midwest, namely: The Muck Crops Show at Garrett; Indiana, on November 3, A and 5, and the State Potato Show during the early part of January, 1932. A good peck (15 pounds) “of potatoes for show and exhibition purposes always creates a good feeling of friendly competition. Growers vie with one '.mother for the premier honors and f unsuccessful in winning wonder why the juege selected the other sample. Close observation will give : the reason why a particular sample placed first. Each variety has its own chara•leristics as to color of the si in and the size of the potato. Freedom from ‘ blemishes and diseases is also a vital i factor. High yields afford better oppori unities of being choicy about ind:I idual potatoes. If there are only a I few low yielding rows to select 30 i dight ounce potatoes . from, it l>e- ' .cnits * .task to pick out enough to 1 make a creditable showing. : Irish Cobbler; Early Ohio arid ■ Rural varieties make up the bulk > f I exhibits and a good peck can be se- | cured if a few directions are followed. First, select only disease free potatoes. The more common diseases are scab, readily distinguished by. he pox marks; scurf, which gives the potatoes a black flecky dirty appearilhce but does not rub off; and wilt, a brown discoloration which makes its appearance at the stem end. Other blemishes are: wire worm grub injury and mechanical bruises. As soon as the potatoes are dug, allow them to remain till the skin is set and. then wrap each potato in paper. This prevents skin bruising. Select as least 20 or 25 more potatoes of good type than the required amount. A good Ohio is reddish brown in color, oblong, <(nd should be larger, in the middle with blunt stem and bloss om end. The eyes of the Ohio are numerous and shallow, The blossom or seed end eyes should be; in the center and not to one side.; Weight approximately seven to. eight ounces. j Cobblers are creamy white in col-' or more or less round and blocky with fewer deeper eyes than the Ohio. "Cat faces”, off center eyes on ( the seed end, detract greatly from a I good exhibit and should be avoided.; The weight should be approximately j seven ounces. Rurals are of two kinds, the white; and russet, and outside of skin color characteristics they, should be the same. Rurals are ovel shaped, with shallow to medium depth eyes. Rurals are larger than most other varieties and should weigh between eight and ten ounces. After the final selection has b p en made, clean them with a soft brush or cloth. Do not wash potatoes for show purposes as this automatically disqualifies them. After the potatoes are cleaned, rewrap them and place them in a. box, never in a burlap bag, and store them where it is cool and hey can not be damaged by chickens or rats. Numerous shows will be held in Indiana this year with good prem sums offered for those who care to take a little extra time and prepare a good exhibit.

Paying a little more to get good furniture is an experience no one has ever been knchvn to regret. Year in and year out satisfaction that comes from owning an article that is made right and styled right, far outweighs the slight difference in price over the flashy “bargains” of inferior quality. Before a piece of furniture is offered for sale at Beckman’s, it must ' fill the requirements necessary to insure long and satisfactory service. That’s why our-old customers rarely fail to come back again and again when they need new furniture. You don’t need to take a chance onfurniture that carries an impossibly " low price tag—good furniture costs just about half what it cost a few years ago. , BECKMAN’S “Quality Furniture”
