10 1. TO GET BIGGEST CRININAL BUREAU Capital Will Be Seat of New System of Halting In- ternational Crooks. BY HAL O'FLAHERTY. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copsright, 19: LONDON, August Following a series of conferences with Scotland Yard officials, Rush J. Holland, as- sistant attorney general of the United States, has arranged a new efficient ) system of criminal intelligence, which, when perfected, will make the appre- | hension of criminals traveling in, either direction between British and | American ports far more certain than ever before. Hitherto practically all communica- | tions regarding thé movements of criminals or international crooks went through diplomatic channels. I Scotland Yard wanted to inform the Department of Justice that a certain character was en route to New York. word was first sent through the American embassy in London. then forwarded to the State Department in Washington and subsequently to the: Department of Justice H To Obviate Delay. Occasionally the message was re- celved hours too late for them to take action. Through Holland's efforts | this devious methed will be abandon- ed. Within a few weeks. direct com- | munication between the world's two | greatest criminal detection bureaus | will have been established. | “For vears we have been hampered by slow communication.” said Hol- land “our well laid plans for ap- prehending or following dangerous | characters being repeatedly frustrated through our inability to cable facts direct to Europe's great detective centers. Our men in the states, after patiently watching persons suspected of crime or complicity in plots, would lose them shortly before they boarded liners sailing to urope. or perhaps would redi ver the trail on the day the quarry was due to land in a for- cign port. Dispatches sent through the old channels required time to code and decode them, with extremely disappointing results. That soon wiil be done away with and replaced by modern methods for instant com- munication between the various au- thorities. There has been a great number of men who now should be locked up. but. they dropped com- pletely out of sight after landing from Atlantic liners. We can get them if our agents know when they are due to arrive. but once ashore the job of locating them becomes infinite- ‘L\' complicated. World's Largest Bureau. “Before many vears the United States will have tha world's largest and most efficient bureau for erim- inal ~identification established = at Washington. T have found Scotland Yard authorities enthusiastic over the new plans.” Information from American and other sources on this side indicates the American systems for criminal identification and detection are about to undergo a reorganization with a view to combining at least three separate bureaus now working along {dentical lines There are three de- partments where criminal records are kept in the United States ne at Fort Leavenworth. another lzl the Treasury Department. and the third under the supervision of the police chiefs' associatiion. = All three keep | the same records and send out agents, | in many cases the agents \\(\rk\nk. the same job of investigating crimé or shadowing crooks.
