MEDFORD HAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKD, OREGON', FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 193f. AGE SEVEN E II FIND1 Point With Pride to Metro politan Police Record of Only 21 Murders in 1930 One Death Unsolved PATIENTLY TO CUT LD WAR DEBT By Alvln II all man LONDON (AP) British people, accustomed to having the Qnlted States held out to them as a land containing the best of everything, pounced upon the Wlckersham re ports as pointing to one side of American life In which Great Britain excels. Exhibit "A" Is always the metro politan police records, which In 1930 showed only 21 murders. Nine of the slayers killed themselves, and eleven arrests were made In the oth er twelve cases. Too Many Prisoners Of three persons acquitted, two were survivors of suicide pacts. There was only one unsolved murder. A British prison official who has visited many American prisons com ments that the English cannot fairly criticize the United States because Britain .herself has never faced such difficulties as have American prison officials. He calls attention to overcrowding In American prisons' and suggests that by making greater use of proba tion conditions might be relieved. "I saw many prisoners In America" he said, "who In England would have been assigned to the care of proba tion officers and would never have entered a prison gate." Third Degree Gentle George Ingram, who has a long record with the British police and finally served In two of the larger prisons for burglary, said there Is a difference In application of the "third degree." Beating, mentioned with such emphasis In the Wlcker sham reports. Is not often resorted to In England, nor are there long sleep less hours of bullying and question ing. "Instead." Ingram explains, bear ing out frequent assertions of the police themselves, "the prisoner Is treated with considerable .courtesy, questioned for a while, allowed to rest and then questioned some more. "If he Is clever he may evade im plicating himself, although so sure Is the British system of detection that before a man Is arrested the police practically have established his guilt." 4 The First M.

Italian Dictator Never An Open Advocate of Cancel lation Thinks Burden Is Too Heavy, However By John Evans ROME (AP) The "nibbling" proc- esa on reparations, due perhaps to receive further Impetus by the visit' of Laval of France to President Hoo ver, reveals the tenacious patience of Benito Mussolini. Ever since he rose to power In 1023 this black shirt symbol of quick, vigorous action, has bided his time on this question, acting only when opportunity gave him an opening to ' chip oft a few more of the rough edges of the 1919 peace terms. Debts Endanger reace Nine years ago, when the repara tions commission fixed German pay ments at $528,000,000,000, his de nouncement of them as too great a burden and as a danger to world peace were almost as definite as his urge for relief when the Young plan reduced them to $168,000,000,000. He never openly advocated can cellation of debts, which would be implied by abandonment of repara tions, but there is nothing to show he would oppose It, On the contrary he has acknowledged the Justice of America's claim to repayment of war loans. His theme all along has been the note sounded In Ramsay Mac Donald's election manifesto, that reparations and war debts, however well justified, bear too heavily upon the world's economic Ufe. He has seen them too as Inflaming -the sores t of war into dangerous hatreds. Is No Philanthropist So he did not hesitate to accept instantly Hoover's moratorium pro posal, making It plain that Italy would be In the salvage squad of nations, even if France remained out. The duce takes no credit as an in ternational philanthropist. So long as ether nations accept1 reparations, he wants Italy to have her share. Hence, while he pleaded for reductions, he also fought for an Increase In Italy's percentage and got 12 pe. cent under the Young plan Instead of the pre vious 10 per cent. To get this, 13 per cent, Italy sacri ficed considerable right of Indemnity from Austria, Hungary and Bulgaria. But there also Mussolini's philan thropy was practiced In his country's interest. Italy needs the friendship and trade of central Europe. A letter has been received by the Jackson County Humane society from Arthur Sellgman, governor of New Mexico, in answer to protests voiced regarding recent plans for staging a bull fight in the southwestern state. The fight was not held and the hun dreds of letters received from every state In the union helped greatly In cancelling the event, the governor writes. The letter closes with this expres sion of gratitude, "May I not thank you for your valuable and timely co operation In this matter, which so vitally affected the good name of New Mexico as well as that of the en tire nation."
