PXflE FOUR lTET)T(mT TlfSTL TRIBUNE, fEPFOKP, OREGON. FRTD AY. AUGUST 6. 1937. E HAND OF SLAYER IS KEY TO GRIM UNDER NEW IESI MILWAUKEE (UP) Milwaukee gunmen are being trapped In ft chemist's laboratory. White-coated city chemist work ing quietly among their test tubei, betters and flaska have become the gun-carrying criminal's worst enem ies. Under the leadecshlp of Russell W. Cunllffe, director of the bureau of laboratories the chemlsta have devel oped a test which they believe Is virtually error-proof In connecting - gun with the person who fired It. The chemical experts have Im proved the method by linking a gun man and his gun through paraffin tests by recording the exact distribu tion of powder marks left by a gun . on the shooter's hands. When police detain a suspect In a shooting case they take him Immedi ately to the detective bureau for a paraffin mold of his hand. The mold then Is turned over to Cunllffe who tests It for traces of powder. "Powder contains a nitrate," Cun- llffe explained, "When a gun Is fired . microscopic particles bore Into the skin of the hand holding the weap on." , - Traces of powder are picked up by the iuold, the chemist said. When a nitrate testing solution Is applied to the mold blue spots appear It the ritrate Is present. While tee chemist applies the nl , trate tester to the mold, others note . and record the number, size and dls , trlbutlon of the blue particles.. On a diagram of the hand the teeters record where each particle of powder is found. , "Then by tracing the distribution of the powder marks made In con trolled shooting It Is possible to con nect a gun with the powder marks found on the hand," Cunllffe aald. . ."In one case, a husband was shot while alone with his wife. The quesv tluon was whether he had shot him self or whether she had killed him. A paraffin test revealed SO particles of powder on the dead mans hand. X fired the gun and B8 particles of powder were distributed on my hand In the same manner as the dead man's," Cunllffe said, explaining that this convinced him that the man had fired the gun. . Cunllffe said the test has been used In 03 cases here rrince It was discovered In his laboratory In 1033. At present bis assistants are work ing on a process that would enable them to produce a permanent pic ture of the mold. As now used the mold becomes Invaluable t after a single test.

The president added: "While, unfortunately, the defen sive necessities of the United states call for study of the use of chemicals In warfare, I do not want the gov ernment of the United States to do anything to aggrandize or make per manent any special bureau of the army or the navy engaged In these studies."

M-m-ml Women Rulers to Put Little Village on Map FRIENDLY, W. Vs. (UP) The women are In the driver's seat in this little town of IIS souls because the "men didn't do anything but play checkers and gossip."

The women were swept Into office by a 3-to-l vote a victory that would not have been poMlble with out support from the men. because there are as many men as women In the town.
