2 * CRIME COMMISSION “WILL STUDY POLICE U. S. Group Seeks to In- crease Efficiency of Rural | Agencies, Baker Announces. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 8.—Announce- ment of a new standing, committee to deal primarily with the police problem and particularly as to increased effici- ency of rural police work was an- neunced yetserday by Newton D. Baker, chairman of the National Crime Com- mission. The new committee will be known as the committee on the detection and prosecution of crime and will be under the direction of J. Weston Aller, former attorney general of Massachu- setts, who has become a member of the executive committee of the National Crime Commission. Other members include: Frank J. Loesch, president of the Chicago Crime Commission; Dean Justin Miller of the University of Southern California Law School; Dean John G. Rogers, dean of the Law School of the University of Colorado; Dean Alfred E. Schweppe, dean of the Law School of the University of Wasi%ington; Guy A. ‘Thompson, St. Louis, a member of the executive committee of the American Bar Association, and Inspector T. W. 8. Parson, Victoria, British Columbia, of the British Mounted Police. “It is the thought of the National Crime Commission that the full power and resources of each State can be placed at the command of those in- trusted with police duties in our rural districts to a far greater extent than is now done,” Mr. Baker said. “Whether the extension of the estab- lishment of State police or by some other of the various suggestions made will prove the wisest course will be one of the studies made by this committee, which also will work in close co-oper- ation with the New York State Crime Commission in a detailed study of the possibility of a central State crime de- tecting bureau, as recently suggested by the Governor of New York.” MARYLAND WOMAN HURT. Mrs. Clarence C. Calhoun Victim of Collision at Twelfth and L. Mrs. Clarence C.
