who p reeded Brannan as secre
tary of agriculture, are urging
adoption of the flexible price sup
port, bill with action expected
later today.
Thomas, committee chairman,
told reporters that if the Young
Russell 90 per cent amendment
Is defeated, he will offer the
original Brannan plan as a suhstl
tule for the flexible price bill.
The Brannan plan rejected
by both the House and the Sen
ate proposed a system of 'pro
duction payment subsidies to
farmers on perishable farm pro
ducts instead of the government
price support system. It would
let market prices go where sup
ply and demand led them.
Before Thomas brought up the
Brannan letter, the Senate ac
cepted an amendment Intended
to prevent use oi govcrmeni.

ing market prices."
Agreement to restrictions on
sales of government stocks ac
quired under price supporting
loans or purchases came on a
voice vote.
The new limitation on sales by
the Commodity Credit corpora

agency which carries out the
support operations with a $1,750,
000 fund, was offered by Senator
Anderson (D.-N.M.), floor mana
ger for the bill.

Science's Aid In
Crime Detection
Told Lions Club
Law enforcement today has be
come a science, stated J. A. Ber
nard, assistant agent in charge
of the Portland Federal Bureau
of Investigation, speaking before
the Roseburg Lions Club Thurs
day night in the Hotel lmpqua.
The Lions honored Frand Web
ber. Roseburg high football play
er voted the best blocker in the
recent Coquille contest, and Dale
Blanck, the best offensive line
man in the Myrtle Point game.
They were Introduced by Gene
Henry, student Lions represen
tative, who reported one of the
team members, Glenn Scofleld,
was probably lost for the season
with a broken ankle. Norman
Siefarth presented the Lions cup
to the two players.
Speaking on "Science vs.
Crime," Bernard gave case his
tories of the tracing of a check
forger and the solving of the Hol
lywood State bank armored car
$111,000 robbery, one of the most
daring in the history of crime.
He discussed the part science had
played both In proving the guilt
of criminals and also in estab
lishing the innocence of sus
pects. Rolo of Science Important
Up until 1932, crime detection
was primarily a matter of per
sonal observation and informa
tion obtained through talking
with Individuals. But since that
year, when the FBI was set up,
science has played an Increas
ingly Important part.
The FBI's laboratory equip
ment Is now valued at more than
a million and a half dollars, to
gether with laboratory techni
cians. A new electronic micro
scope has been invented which
can magnify organisms 60,000
times.
Tracing of handwritings on for
ged check led to the capture of
one check artist, who posed as
everything from a college pro
fessor to a U. S. marshal!, en
gineer equipment buyer and even
a buyer for a prison from which
he had Just been released, stated
Bernard. He reviewed the case
of this man, one of the most
famous of forgers, and the man's
activities, charted on a map,
looked like a great web. The for
ger is now in a New Jersey pen
itentiary. Violet Ray Aids Law
The use of violet ray broke the
case that convicted two young
men for Hollywood bank robbery.
The violet ray brought out num
bers on a badge found among
the possessions of one of the
mi, and he was traced to a
Los Angeles plant where he had
previously worked.
The belief that a battleship
had been sabotaged was dis
counted, after electrical experts
proved a fire could result from
a short circuiting In the com
munications wiring, he explained.
He told further how two youths,
believed involved In a hit-run-accident,
were exonerated, when
It was found what was thought
to be human blood on their car
was animal blood.
