Baltimore, Md. — “ The perfect crime,” the dream of criminals, is growing more and more impossible as the best brains in criminal in vestigation and scieijpe develop new methods to tighten the net on law breakers. Dr. R. W. Wood, professor of phys ics at the Johns Hopkins university in Baltimore, Md., described new scientific methods* developed to aiu federal investigators to the Ameri can Institute of Chemical Engineers which met in Baltimore recently. As an example, Dr. Wood related the steps taken a few yeaVs ago to apprehend a criminal who sent a bomb in a Christmas package to a Washington, D. C., family. The bomb exploded, killing three of the family. The only evidence, Dr. Wood declared, was a half doz- en small bits of metal recovered after the explosion. Some had to be dug from what remained of the walls of the room. Dog Holds Slick to Get Gold Tooth 2937 Ford Trucks Ready for “ On the Jo b 99 Tests Connersville. Ind. — Zumurb, Dr. O. M.

Proch- now, thirty-nine years old, who be- came known as the “ forgotten man” in debtors’ row at the Cook county jail, where he has served almost three years for contempt in a civil proceeding, was ordered released in a ruling by Judge Harry M. Fish- er in Circuit court. The court held in effect that Mr. Prochnow had served long enough to satisfy the requirements of the law. There was a dramatic scene in the courtroom as Mr. Prochnow’s wife, Mabel, rushed forward after Judge Fisher’s ruling and embraced her husband. While he has been in jail Mrs. Prochnow has been supporting her self and two children by operating a notions store. Mr. Prochnow, once a La Salle street investment broker, was first sent to Jail on May 23, 1932, by Judge Thomas Taylor, now retired, when he was sitting in the Circuit court, for failure to turn over $35,- 282 to the estate of William Garnett, lawyer, who died in 1930. Later Mr. Prochnow won his re lease on bail, but was recommitted to the county jail on March 14, 1934, after the Illinois Supreme court had dismissed a writ of error filed in his behalf. The Supreme court upheld Judge Taylor and ruled that Prochnow should be imprisoned un til he turned over the money to the estate. Following failure to reopen hear ings in the Circuit court, the mat ter was brought before Judge Fisher. In his opinion the judge said that in cases where a debtor fails to pay a judgement under a malice count or comniits contempt in an alimony case the statute provides imprisonment for not more than six months at one time.
