Ribaa had made a aketch aboard of the Japanese Importer, a married man vhose fnmily residea at rorwalk. Conn. Ril'as aaid he called at the cabin at 7 a. m. the mornm the boat docked from lta "show boat cruise." Fujimura waa rone. He haa not been reported aeen alnce. The story the sketch artist told to the assistant district attorney sried widely from that reported told by the beautiful blonde show girl. She had been quoted aa sayine shj Inst saw Fujimura ar, dinner me maul Bi tot! the ship docked. It waa a ray circle tn which Fuji mura and the show airl moved aboard naa..nfvir. told the i fl- msrlntors'.

She waa popular with the men of her own race on the vesael. There was considerable drinkinir en gaged In by Mra. Relsner and Fuji mura but neither waa ever aeen In toxicated, passengers aaid. The night before the boat docked, according to Ralph Melani, one of the entertainers, Fujimura engaged In a "heavy" poker game. Ribaa, telling of bla attempt to de liver the portrait the morning after he had heard severe quarreling tn Fu jimura's apartment, said: "I went to the cabin about 7 a. m. and the Japanese had not been In his room. ' I returned about? two hours later and left the aketch In the stateroom." When the boat docked that morning there waa no trace of the Importer. With only two solutions to the mys tery murder or aulcide Investigat ors sought for possible motives for eir-destructlon and found none. It waa argued that If Fujimura had contemplated suicide he would not have taken hia aeven-year-old daugh ter on the trip. On the other hand, the possibility of murder suggested Itself strongly lor several possible motives revenge. ' racial hatred, or Jealousy, LAD DEFEATS NEW YORK GANGSTER!

By DEXTER H. TEED (NEA Service Writer) NEW YORK. The great metro- polls that meekly pays millions to ruthless racketeera every year, baa suddenly been shamed by the example of a little, brown-eyed bootblack. When a petty racketeer demanded tribute from Ysauro Anduagua be didn't pay. He fought, fought with a fiercenesa and indomitable spirit that would not be denied, swung his clench ed fists against the jaw or a grown man and shouted for hia fellows to help. Ysauro won.

Indignant at uangsters TTntn the hour when he met face- to-face a racketeer, Ysauro wns like many boya who try to earn honest pennies by shining ahoes. He worked in the Bowling Green section of down town Manhattan. Although he la IB. he la small for hla age. But hla experiencea on the streets of the city have made hlnl keen-witted and wary. He haa read of gangsters and rack eteera. And unlike some boys who admire gunmen, he detests them with a vigor that finds expression In fiery comment. Here is what he says about tbem: "It's a shame to let bums like Al Capone and Lega Diamond run loose. They oughts be hung both of em." His eyes light up with wrath. His whole body trembles with anger. "If I waa running a atore, or some thing, and one of these gangsters came In and told me I'd have to pay or meblte get ahot or bombed, well. I wouldn't pay, that'a all. I'd smash him in the jaw. and then T'd call the cops. And if some dirty gunmen said he'd shoot me I wouldn't pay any way." Ha Stood Firm That was how Ysauro felt about It. And tliia is what happened the first time he actually came face to face with the racket: Ysauro wns working at his trade, laboriously earning the nickels he tnkus hnmn to heln stinnort the fam ily, when Nicholns Zanipanl, 23 years old. approached him. "Come on you kids, pay me 1PI cents apiece." demanded Zamliani. "I got a concesh from the federal govern ment for shining shoes here end if you want to stay, pay me. See? Melibe you'll get beaten up If you don't." Other boys had paid, paid the hard earned nickels that are not so plenti ful these rlnys ns they once were. Zampanl had collected In other parts of the city. But when Ysauro heard the demand all the resentment against racketeers that had been dammed up In him burst out. "1 won't psy. yon bum!" he cried. Znmpanl clutched at the lad. Aa ha did. all the pent-up fury of the boothlaek'a 100 pounds surged Into ac tion. He pummelled Znmpanl In the face. He fought as If his life were at stake. His pal. William Nach trieh. 15. and other boys leaped in to help him. And all the ghosts of the stubborn old Dutch burghers who paraded and bowled on that same green 2M years ago. crowded ahout. applauding.

HE REPORT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) HIGH CRIME COST WASHINGTON, Aug. 21. (U.PJ Inefficient snd wasteful criminal justice machinery ex ists in some communities, the Wlckersham commission re ported today In connection with a striking table showing the comparitive cost of combating crime in .100 American cities. The commission disclosed the citizens of Jersey City, N. J, fiay most per capita for crim nal justice machinery. The cost cited there wns $11.30 a year for each citizen. Other high per capita costs In their order were revealed ss follows: Boston, S0.G4; Washington, D. C. $921: Philadelphia. S8.75: New York City, J7.76; 'Detroit, $7.29; St. Louis, Mo., $B!95: Chicago, $6.85; Atlanta, Ga. S 56: Son Frnnciseo $6.25; Los Angeles. $0.18; Portland, Ore.. $4.16: Bellincham, Wnsh., $2.88: Everett, Wash.. $2.85;' Seattle (1020) $4.47; Tacoma (1929) $2.90. nal justice machinery does not cost too much. A weeding out of laws eliminating unnecessary social restrictions might well be undertaken as a measure of economy. Although the word prohibition 1s not directly mentioned in that con nection, the commission incorporated in its report the report of its leading investigator, Sidney P. Simpson of the New York bar, who said: "A part of the money now required to be expended In the administration of criminnl justice is spent In the enforcement of statutes applying to conduct with which it is a matter of debate whether the people and the criminal courts are intrinsically fitted to deal, and which must, in aome cases, at least, be regarded as out side the limits of effective legislation by means of the criminal law.

"It is clear, we think, tbst the cost of enforcing the criminal law would be lees If It did not attempt to forbid and punish acts psrticipated In by large numbera of otherwise law abiding citizens who do not regard such pro hibited sets ss 'criminal' except in a technical sense. "However, the desirability of thus reducing the burden imposed on the taxpaying public by expenditures for criminal justice will undoubtedly be determined in the light of viewa as to social considerations with which we sre not concerned in this report." The commission was concerned over racketeering the process of ex tortinr money by threats from legiti mate and illegitimate business. It found that racketeering now is prob ably the most profitable form of crime and "had come to pervade a substantial part of the national eco nomic life." Labor Hooked to Rackets Investigator Simpson reported the commission that "the alliance be tween racketeering and the activities of certain labor unions is reputed to be close." "Comprehensive Investigstion Is very difficult," Simpson continued, "and would, indeed be highly dan gerous to the Investigator. Neverthe less such Investigation is a task which urgently needs to be carried out. "The relationship between racket eering and ordinary business In cer tain lines appears to bare become very close In some cases, "Another extremely disturbing phase M the matter is the apparent ly growing tendency toward amicable relationships, cemented by bribery and graft, between organized crime and public agenciea charged with the duty of law enforcement. "The cost of administering criminal justice is relatively small in compar ison with other economic losses to in dividuals and to the community re sulting from crime. "It Is easier to Identify the 3.70 per year chargeable to each inhabi tant of Chicago on account of muni cipal police expenditures, than it is to ascertain each such person's share of the amount annually extorted from the public of Chicago by racketeera; but the latter cost Is probably more than the' 'former," Rimpson contended that the pnblic paid for the rackets in Increased price a. The commission's own statement was contained in eight of the 658 pagea in the report. It included a unanimous opinion of the commission that recommendations in the reports of investigators should be carried out Is Economlo Burden "Crime imposes a tremendous eco nomic burden on the community," the commission said. "The economic dam age which results is most serious. It should not require the dramatic ef fect of some lump-sum total figure to emphasize the importance and ne cessity, from a purely economic stand point of dealing adequstely with the problem." The Investigators, Simpson and bis partner. Goldthwaite H. Door of the New York bar, figured the federal cost of criminal justice quite accur ately, they said. Their tables showed the predomi nance of prohibition in the federal crime prevention picture of costs for the fiscal year 1020-30: Policy and marshals Cost. $35. 923.915: prohibition $25,644,069; per cent 74.1. Prosecution Agencies Cost Jl, 006,976: prohibition $906,720; per cent 49.9. Courts Cost $6,331,015: prohibi tion, $4,308,004; per cent 68.1.
