Scientific War FIFTY NATIONS WILL BE REPRESENTED IN PARIS INTERNATIONAL RECIPROCITY. United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. Received Sunday, 7 p.m. LONDON, April 20. “Checking crime is no longer a civic or a national matter but a question of international moment," declares Commissioner Richard Enright, president of the International Police conference and a 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 50 nations will be represented. He adds: “War will be declared on criminals throughout tho world. 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, which have been distributed illicitly throughout the world."
