Legislation to enable the local au- thorities to deal more effectively with fugitives from justice in other juris- dictions and a law providing a penal- ty for making false reports to the police are urgently needed in Wash- ington, in addition to an act to curb the sale and possession of pistols and other dangerous weapons, according to Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, Superintend- ent of Polic A few ago Maj. Hesse an- nounced his intention of pressing for action at the next session of Congress on the dangerous weapon bill. ‘While he regards that as the paramount leg- islative need of his department, he mentioned the other two proposals to- day as worthy of consideration by the District committees of the Senate and House.

This bill passed the Senate in April and was referred to the sub- committee on judiciary of the House District committee, which will take it up for consideration in December. The bill for strict regulation of weapons is also pending at the Capi- tol and will be stressed by police officials_when Congress reconvenes. Maj. Hese believes that local laws dealing with deadly weapons should be reinforced by passage of the pend- ing bill to prohibit the shipment of firearms through the mail, except to dealers or others entitled by law to receive them. g The Altoona Tribune wonders where all the white horses come from, be- cause nobody ever remembers seeing a white colt. 1 depart- | 3. ment would benefit indirectly by be- [ Fort Samaria—Liverpool DUE TODAY.
