Nine years ago Harry Houdini, master magician, died. Before he
passed away he made a compact with his wife that he would seek to
communicate with her from beyond, giving her certain code signals
whereby she might know when he spoke. In her rustic Laurel Canyon
home, near Hollywood, Calif., Mrs. Beatrice Houdini waits for that
message. She has waited nine years at a shrine In which stands a
photograph of the magician beneath a continuously burning light. No
word has come, but vigilance unrelaxed, she still waits.
Architectural Dream of Recovery
When Homer S. Cummings, United
States attorney general, designated
St. Paul as the “poison spot of
crime" Wallace Jamie, twenty-seven,
crime student, walked Into St. Paul's
public safety building and asked
permission to hang around as a
sideline spectator, to watch a po­
lice force In action. Jamie watched
and worked with the knowledge he
had obtained at the University of
Chicago and Northwestern univer­
sity crime schools, and brought Into
use a number of devices of his own
Invention. Through a monitor sys
tem he tapped all telephone wires
in the public safety building and
rigged up an Instrument to record
conversations of police officials. In­
side of lamps and telephones he
Inserted microphones connected to
his own office and recording ma
chine. He established a close link
between high officials of the police
department and the crime element
The greatest shakeup in St. Paul's
turbulent police history ensued, and
now he has been named deputy
commissioner of public safety by
H. E. Warren, commissioner.
