A FEDERAL POLICE FORCE AND A department OF EDUCATION Considerable sentimnt is being aroused for the oration of a Federal Police Force to stamp out crime and racketeering. The grounds offered for the stablishittent of such a force is the weaknesses fevinced by local gov ernments in dealing with modern crime, which has become interstate in its operations the same as legiti mate business ihterests. Only a “fed eral. law enforcement unit that will cover the populous centers, working quietly, thoroughly and relentlessly” will suffice, it is contended. Many do not deny that some dras tic means must be taken to cut & criminal activities, but they point out that the proposal to set up a Federal Police Force is deciddly revolution ary. Centralized > polic power, they claim, is the very power fought in the Constitutional Convention, tand hadnot that power been felt in the sthtes the Constitution would not have been adopted. If the Federal Govrnment should assume Responsi bility for wiping out big criminal op erations, where would this power end, they ask. Would it not eventually be used to encroach upon the political liberties of th people by crushing freedom of speech and the press in the states? i It is held by some that what is most needed to wipe out crime is a vigorous public press which will con stantly attack wrongdoing in all stra ta of society, so that the people may be aroused to replace those public of ficials who do not enforce the various state and national laws against crime. It is declared that fedral laws are not now always enforced if the vio lator is prominent in the political and industrial life of the nation. Hearings before committees of the Senate and House frequently disclose this to be true, it is pointed out. What assur ance is there, it is asked, judging from certain laxities of federal en forcement, that the big criminal op erators will riot b able to escape pun ishment even if a Federal Police Force is established? Many who have studied th motive of law violations believe that an aroused public opinion, the, creation of social justice in all its implications and the adequate education ofiboth children and adults would do more to wipe out crime than any other means. These processes are rational and sa lutary in their effcts, it is held. The first opens to view the criminal of fenses and causes*- public nffiqials to. act without delay; the second strikes at the caus^' of rriiich' crimfe, arid the last/equips .the individual, to earn his way, while it enables him to contri bute to thS*iftiaintenance of an order ly, decent sooiety. The establishment of a Department of Education arid the appropriation I of. federal funds, tooaid the various! centers which have little or no means to support education, is believed by j many to be more desirable than the creation of a Federal Police Force to strengthen what is termed weak lo cal governments.

The war against the accident menace—in industry the home, on the highways and else where. This is not an empty parallel. Au tomobile accidents alone actually cost more lives than war. They create as much suffering. They are even com parable to war in the economic waste they entail. On a number of fronts this war has been successful. In the industrial field, tremendous progress in acci dent prevention has been made. The roster of important industries which operate for months at a stretch with-1 out a single mishap of importance, is constantly growing. The life and health of workers in every producing field has never been better guarded^ because management has been tire less in instilling the doctrine of safe first into its employes. That is also true of children of school age. Thousands of young lives have ben save through courses on caution and accident prevention. The great failure has been in the | field of the automobile. Most years j have seen decisive advances in the ! number of deaths and injuries over the last. Reductions, the few times they have occurred, have been small. The recklss and inconsiderate driver has scored victory after victory. The result is that our public streets ancj highways have become places of car nage. The never-ending war against ac cident must be fought with increas ing vigor if it is to succeed. The dan gerous driver is Public Enemy Num ber 1. He should be given the treat ment he deserves.
