An unsuccessful effort wus made Monday to get reconsideration of Senator Upton's bill which wuuld reopen Coqullle river to seine fish ing. The measure was killed 8ut iiidity by Indefinite postponement. Senator Jones, chairman of the committee on fishing Industries, THE VALUE OF STATE POLICE "We are using bows and arrows of capture against the machine guns of escape in dealing with criminals."

There arc many places in each state where there actually is 110 organized law enforcement group; and the matter of co-operation by the police of dif ferent cities and towns is still poorly developed. Thus there is no unification in the business of catching criminals and preventing crime. Criminals escape, not be cause the police are careless or crooked, but because the pivs ent police set-up is, by its very nature, inefficient. The remedy, as outlined by Attorney General Sharlel, is a state police system; a law enforcement organization that would have-jurisdiction over a whole state, that could cmss city and county linos without difficulty, that would function unaer a suig'e leadership that would, in short, be able to take up the i base on an oqiiiil fouling w ith the criminal. Such a system, according to Shartol, "would act as a throat ; . deterrent to the criminal.
