Present Household Pest Has
Oldest Family History in
Bugdom Association
With Man Degrading
BALBOA, C. Z. (TJF) The cocK
roach is an aristocrat.
He's the present-day representa
tive of probably the oldest extant
family of Inserts, and he was a very
decent tort of a bug until man JUBt
ruined him.
So asserts Df. A. E. Emerson, here
for a study of termites (the cock
roach's closest Insect relative).
"Three hundred and fifty million
years n&o." Dr. Emerson declared,
when insects first began to make
invasions during the cold period, the
cockroaches established themselves.
Having the oldest family history
among the Insects, they came to
America as passengers on the May
flower, and they have followed man
kind through history.
Once Were Decent.
'Cockroaches were very decent un
til they became associated with man,
who made them rather disgusting.
From the cockroaches arose the ter
mites, who are similar to the roaches
In appearance and behavior. Both
are wood-eating Insects, having the
same characteristic of being able to
digest wood with the aid of the
protozoa. The protozoa digest the
cellulose and apt free the sugar from
which the termite gets it food.
Two hundred years ago the termites
arose as offshoots of the cock
roaches," continued Dr. Emerson.
'We might learn a lesson from
the termites." advised Dr. Emerson,
"by studying their division of labor
and organization, though we might
not necessarily emulate them. The
three classes are the reproductive
caste, the soldiers, and the workers,
each attending to its own special
duty."
No Fighting.
Dr. Emerson said he had never
aeen an anti-social act performed
among the termite colonies. There
was no fighting, but many cases oi
selfless sacrifice, not the case among
human beings.
"Termites are the most perfect so
cial animals on the face of the
earth," Dr. Emerson declared, out of
his 15 years study of them.
An astonishing fact Dr. Emerson
cites about termites is that the
queens may live for 50 years, laying
7000 eggs daily? The queen becomes
very large, sometimes five inches
long, resembling a potato very closely.
When the queen is removed from a
colony a new queen sometimes de
velops from a nymph . by a myste
rious transforms tion.
During the last two weeks of study
on Barro Colorado Island Dr. Emer
son discovered a species of soldiers
new to Panama, soldiers with queerly
shaped mandibles with which they
make a distinct clicking sound.
It was Dr. Emerson's theory that
the clicking sound was a warning
to acquaint the rest of the colony
with danger near-by. One of Dr.
Emerson's problems will be to ana
lyze these "clicking" soldiers whose
only function seems to be to 6nap
their mandibles ro produce a noise.

WASHINGTON (AP) The "G
Men's university" training school
for the nation's most famous in
vestigators will be opened for the
first time this summer to represen
tative officers of metropolitan and
state police forces.
This scientific college of crime de
tection of the department of jus
tice will offer a full course, by orJer
of Attorney General Cummlngs,
further to coordinate law enforce
ment agencies to provide opportun
ity for swapping Ideas gained in hard
experience between the unsung local
"cop" and the government's ace detectives.
For the first time, officers other
than special agents in the federal
btireau of investigation will receive
the elaborate training under Director
J. Edgar Hoover that has built up the
scientific, college-trained federal
force.
12 Weeks of Training
Here In the massive stone Justice
building, selected officers will learn
all that science and experience czn
offer men who compete with dan
gerous gangsters and criminals. It
the course follows that used for
novice agents, the officers will re
ceive 12 weeks of training in the
classrooms and laboratories.
They will learn to take finger
prints from beer bottles, letters, win
dow ledges and auo steering wheels,
using vari-coiored powders to bring
these out. The "signatures of crim
inals" will be photographed with
special cameras, or "lifted" with ad
hesive tape.
Fake murders and kld'naplngs will
be staged. "Oscar." the dummy, will
be found prostrate on the floor.
Nearby may be a gun. note, blood
stain, scrap of paper or similar clue.
After the students have Investigated
the "crime" and prepared their solu
tions, the Instructors will hold a post
mortem on the evidence.
Getting The Evidence .
"We teach our men to get all the
evidence that will stand In courts,"
Hoover says. The bureau's record of
04 per cent convictions in difficult
cases tried testifies to the skillful
training.
Learning to manipulate all the
high powered weapons needed
cope with hoodlums, the students
will use a large pistol gallery in the
basement of the Justice building and
the rifle range of the Quantlco ma
rine post a few miles away.
Not all of the training is spectac
ular. There must be hours of dig-
glng study on evidence In embezEle-

box-cars so dear (?) to the hearts of
the American Expeditionary forces in
1917, are being retired from aetlvw
service and made into homes for
summer railway campers.
The French state railways annfl'.nc

habitation after all.
Officials won't say whether they

In practice, but at any rat the
freight cars are now being turned
out as luxurious "hobo wagons."
American ex-doughboys would nev

them there isn't even a horsey amell
left.
They're white-washed outside and
fitted inside like a house-boat, Each
car has six beds, a gaa stove, a sink,
bedding, chairs and a table.
While traveling a whole car costs
the prlc of three full third-class
fares. Standing attll they coat about
$1,30 a day.
By stating prospective Itineraries

Auditory Tests
While the students are studying,
a loud crash may occur in the next
room. Half a minute later a second
crash may follow; and in a minute

announcing that the noise la an

explains, because they teach careful

only key to lta solution.

coordinating federal and local efforts
to combat crime.

1AV0R CONTROL PROCESS
Hiram Walker's "Controlled Condensation
Revolutionizes Gin Distilling!
Hew "C. C." Procest Take
the Guess Out of Ginl
If you've ever had gin go fuszy in a
fizz, cut capers in a cocktail, or forget
its obligation to Tom Collins, here's
good news! After 300 years, there is a
way to make gin flavors behave!
When Repeal came, Hiram Walker
was ready with the secret of flavor
control in gin! Hiram Walker's "Con
trolled Condensation" is the only
process in the world that assures ab.
solutely smooth, uniform flavor from
the numerous and tricky herbal In
gredients of gin.
This unique "C. C." Process, in use
since the opening of Hiram Walker's
Peoria distillery, a year ago, distills
the various flavoring ingredients into
the grain spirits at different proofs.
The flavor of the individual ingre
dients not just the quantity is
scientifically regulated according to
the exact requirements of the Hiram
Walker formula.
Smooth I from Still to
Shaker to Youl
The results are amazing! No flavor
can come through too strong no fla
vor can come through too weak.
Everything is under control! Juniper
berries, coriander seeds, sweet orange
peel, and other elements used act in
complete unison under Hiram
Walker's "C. C." Process. Each con
tributes the exact difference and de
gree of flavor essential to a gin that is
perfectly balanced, consistently
smooth, invariably uniform . and
remember: Hiram Walker's London
Dry Gin is made exclusively from
grain spirits.
Extra Satisfaction But
It Costs You No More
Get a bottle today and taste the dif
ference. The revolutionary "C. C."
Process, which has made Hiram
Walker's London Dry Gin the most
popular gin In America, gives you
complete satisfaction at no extra cost.
