CHECKING CRIME

QUESTION OF INTERNATIONAL MOMENT INCREASE DUE TO MODERN SCIENTIFIC DEVICES I PROBLEMS FOR CONFERENCE z IN PARIS (United Service.) (United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) (Rec. April 21, 5.5 p.m.) London, April 20. The “Daily Mail” reports: “Cheeking crime is no longer a civic or national matter, but a question of international moment,” declares Commissioner Richard Enright, president of the International Police Conference and Police Commissioner in New York for seven years, who is going back to America after investigations in Europe preparatory to the Paris conference in November, when fifty nations will be represented. He adds: “War will be declared on criminals throughout the world. The police work in every country will be reviewed.” The agenda includes traffic problems, particularly in connection with motor bandits, the illicit drug traffic, and international police reciprocity. Commissioner Enright says: “Crime is increasing owing to the aid of modern scientific devices. Criminality is almost as destructive as the Great War, which left a legacy of guns distributed illicitly 'throughout the world.”
