Problems affecting local printing, en- graving _and lithographing _houses through the diversion of orders to rival firms in Baltimore, Richmond and other houses were considered from many angles at a meeting called yester- day by the Board of Trade. The meeting, which was under the puspices of the industrial interests com- mittee of which C. Phillips Hill is the chairman, was attended by the buyers and officials of many business houses and banks as well as spokesmen for the three industries directly concerned. As evidence that the printers and en- gravers and lithographers of Washing- ton can match in quality the products of outside rivals, an exhibit of their work was shown in the Board of Trade | offices which aroused much interest and | praise. It is probable that this exhibit, | Tepresentative of all types of work per- formed by the industries, will be shown | publically as a convincing argument | why Washington business men should | patronize home industries. | Pledges of co-operation were given by | Robert N. Harper, who spoke frankly about the pfoblems of the printing in- dustry from the viewpoint of a banker. | It is as much to the interests of the | banks, he explained, to keep in Wash- ington the money that is being diverted to Baltimore and other cities. Wash- ington has the work to give out, he| said, and the business men as a whole prefer to give it to local printing firms | if they can get the service that out- side competitors can give. | Co-operation Urged. Speaking for the printing: business, | ©. T. Wright, said that the printing industry is co-operating as it has never | done before and emphasized the that the question of price is not the im- | portant factor in competition, as some are inclined to make it. Appealing for co-operation from the | business houses of the city to regain | business 10ss to other cities, Mr. Wright said that the local buyers in Richmond or Baltimore would no more think of placing orders in Washington for print- ing than they would think of flying. A suggestion of R. P. Andrews, that “there are more commuters going to Baltimore to buy than the department stores here have any idea of,” resulted in an appeal by others to boost the “Buy in Washington” movement in the interests of all. Good Work Here. Local salesmen are creating in the public mind, unwittingly perhaps, Mr. Andrews said, the idea that it is cheap- er to buy in Baltimore by confessing the loss of orders to outside firms. He urged that the combined efforts of the trade bodies unite in backing the “Buy in Washington™” movement so as to keep business here that rightly belongs. This led to a suggestion from William J. Eynon that local business firms keep a record of all out-of-town purchases. Every business in the city, he declared, should co-operate in reporting progress made in keeping business in Washington that is now going to other cities. “We haven't stood up and fought for our home town as we should,” he said. “It is the business of everybody to join in and fight for Washington.” Maj. W. W. Kirby spoke for the lithographers. He said that by de- grees the lithographing firms of this city could serve all the banks of Wash- ington within a year, if the banks ‘would give them their business. “If you don't want to give us the work,” he said, “call a spade a spade. Say you are satisified to continue deal- ing where you have been dealing in the past, but don’t say that the Washington Lithographer$ cannot give you the ser- Vice required, because we can.” ‘The meeting was the first of its kind to form a movement to meet conditions confronting the printing and allied in- dustries and others will be held during the coming months to keep it alive. Great satisfaction was expressed yes- terday over the indicated willingness many local inesses to co-operate in patronizing Washington firms for their orders, Texas Storm Kills Four, WICHITA FALLS, Tex., May 18 (#). ~—The Wichita Falls Record-News last | night learned that four persons were injured and property damage exceeding $100,000 was caused by a high wind ac- companied by heavy rain and hail that struck six Northwest Texas towns late yesterds o s i !

Two of America's Leading Universities Will Inaugurate Courses in Detection of Criminals. BY MORRIS WATSON, Associated Press Staff Writer. CHICAGO, May 18.—Indignant at the growth of crime on its body politic, its reputation smirched by the smoking guns of gangsters, the city of Chicago will cradle its own potential deliverer— the superdetective. ‘This creature, herctofore only a myth of fiction, will be made into flesh and blood to Teplace the policeman whose chief qualification often is but a stout heart. Two of America’s leading universities, both in Chicago, have hung up hand- writing on the wall for the heretofore undetected murderer, thief, firebrand, kidnaper, racketeer and other trans- gressors on the peace and comfort of society. Police work will henceforth be a part of the curriculum at Northwest- ern and Chicago Universities—and | racket-ridden Chicago will be their re- search laboratory. Starting with & _chair of police ad- ministration, the University of Chicago | plans in the near future td loose the forces of modern knowledge on crime | through detectives, who will be “doc- tors” ‘instead of “bulls,” who will re plane guesswork with exact information.

Every avenue of learning that can aid in the tracking down of a criminal will be thrown open to the embryo detec- | tives, White said. The course eventually will be designed to permit special study of one or two years as well as the fuil four-year college course for those who wish it. An interdepartmental committee will co-operate with Prof. Volimer to see that his students are well grounded in all the sciences necessary to intelligent investigation. ‘The student undertaking the full | course will study the chemistry of poisons, criminology. sociology, psyche ogy, physics and anthropology and learn to apply the studies to the investiga- tion of crime. Plan Thorough Training. As an indication of how other de- | partments will co-operate with the de- partment of police administration, White explained, the medical school will teach the police students how to detect the presence of poisons, while | the department of anthropology will | show them how to determine the race of an unknown pe.son from a strand | of hair or spot of blood. i In addition to inculcating knowledge | into the young Sherlock Holmes, the | new department plans to publish & | series of manuals on standard police | practices, ballistics or the sclence of bullet identification, preparation of criminal cases for prosecution and on the use of hair, dust and blood stains as crime clues. These manuals will be made available to police de everywhere.
