Addressing the Grand Jury at the opening of the criminal sessions at Auckland yesterday, Mr, Justice Herdman commented on the prevalence of house-breaking and the efforts made to apprehend offenders. “House-breaking to-day appears to be the most fancied form of criminal activity. I fear that many cases of this kind go undetected; tho reason I am unable to state. The detective officers appear to work ably and well, so does tho average constable, and so, in some cases, do the sergeants,” his Honour said. “In the matter of equipment we lag sadly behind in New Zealand. Everybody knows that to get speedily to the placo where a. crime has been committed is of vital importance. It may bo that at tho present time we can’t asord to launch out in the matter of expenditure.”
