WASHINGTON In the 15 years since IlKiO, when ihe Federal Bu reau of Investigation began ils program of uniform crime reports, 1 here never has been a nation-wide increase in crime such as occurred in 1!H5. On a basis of averages, one major offense was eommitled every 2.01 seconds. Someone was raped, fel oniously assaulted or slain every ii.4 minutes. I-Acry day 14!) per sons were robbed, (Ki2 automobiles were stolon, iliil places were burg larized, 2,:(71 other types of thefts were committed. Basing estimates on reports from law enforcement agencies in 1, !)!(() communities, representing a popu lation of (i.r).l(14,7!l7, the FBI esti mated last year's crime situation 111 is way: Total number of crimes com mitted, compared with 11)44, up 12 5 per cent. Murder up 10.1 per cent. Negligent manslaughter up 16.2 per cent. Itape up 5.7 per cenl. ltobhery up 2H,( per cenl. Aggravated assault up U.7 per cenl. Burglary up 17 per cent. Larceny up H.(i per cent. Automobile theft up 18.7 per i cnl . Increases were highest ill the north and wesl, lowest in the south The over-all increase was 8.5 per cent in rural areas, 12.4 in cities The annual summary showed too that there even was an inflationary aspect to last year's crime the value of the loot ill the average robbery rising 20 2 per cenl, from 1 I't in 1014 Io $140 in 1045. The bureau estimated that 1,565, .ill major crimes were committed in Hllo, divided as follows: 1 1,234 murders, 1 l,.r).'i7 rapes, 5!),R07 aggra vated assaults, 54,270 robberies, 241,401 automobile thefts, 321,672 burglaries, 865,521 larcenies. Of Ihe seasonal aspeels of 1945's crime, the summary stated: "Crime in 1045, as in prior vears. showed a definite tendency to fluc tuate with the seasons. Murders, ratios and other felonious assaults occurred with greatest frequency during warm .summer months, reaching a peak in August and September. "Negligent manslaughter of fenses, consisting largely of traffic deal lis, follow the seasonal pattern of traffic fatalities which are gen erally least frequent during the spring and summer months, in creasing sharply during the win ter. "Crimes against properly, aggra vated by the additional darkness and economic factors of the winter months, show their greatest fre quency during that period of the year, becoming less frequent dur ing the spring and early summer." The crime picture of 1945 was shadowed, as in previous years, by youthful offenders. Basing esti mates on the 543.852 fingerprint arrest records received during 1945, the FBI figured that persons under 21 years of age committed 0.1 per cent of the rapes, 33.5 per cent of the larcenies, 35.2 per cent of the robberies, 59.3 per cent of the burglaries, 61.1 per cent of the automobile thefts. "Arrests ol- males under 21 in creased 10.1 per cent in 1945 and although arrests of girls under 21 declined 10.6 per cent in 1945 the figure still was 109.3 per cent in excess of that for 1941. the last peace-time year." The summary said that 51.9 per cent of those arrested during the year were persons who already had fingerprint arrest records that is, they were crime repeaters. Why has there been such an in- they are finding their way, through unscrupulous pawnshop operators and others into criminal hands. crease in crime? FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover lists the following as among the principal causes: 1. Wartime relaxation of par ental responsibility for the guid ance and discipline of children. With parents in the armed forces or in war industries, children ac quired harmful habits. These wartime juvenile delinquents arc becoming peacetime criminals. 2. Poor administration of many penal institutions which often makes escape easy. 3. A too-soft parole system, which permits quick release of hardened criminals and sexual de generates. 4. Lax regulation concerning the bringing home of weapons as war souvenirs. These weapons are not being used by former service men for criminal purposes, but PARK THEATRE WAYNESVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA MATINEE: Monday, Wednesday, Friday 2:1." P. M. . . .
