By the Associated Press. ‘WAVERLY, Nova Scotia, July 26— ‘Three rts of the Canadian In- dustries, Ltd., were dead today ‘after an explosion of nitroglycerin near & former manufacturing plant which buried them under tons of debris. Ordered to protect the public against any danger of such an explosion, four men went to the company property last night to test the ground around an old plant where explosives had been manufactured before the war. Their first test explosion was fol- lowed by a great blast that crumbled nearby buildings and .tore a large hole in the ground. ‘Willis Leighton of Halifax had been sent into the woods with surplus dynamite not required for the opera- tion, and he escaped. The three killed were Joseph Cole of Rigaud, Quebec, a technical ex- district sales manager of the com- pany’s explosive division in Halifax, and William Pitcher, works manager of the company’s fertilizer plant in Halifax.

By the Associated Press. ‘Twenty-one of the Nation's “finest” are converging on the Capital—fresh- | men in Uncle Sam's first college in crime prevention. The school term is three months, the “campus,” the air-cooled quarters of the Justice Department’s Bureau | of Investigation. The crime college, which opens officially Monday, is unusual in many | ways. Suggested by the 1934 Con- ference on Crime, it represents the Federal Government's first attempt on a large scale to co-ordinate the work of city, county, State and Fed- eral law enforcement agencies. For this reason its sponsors believe its opening marks a new day in society's war against crime. Good Results Expected. Especially enthusiastic and inter- | ested is J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Investigation Bureau and “prexy” of the college. Both he and Assist-| ant Director Hugh H. Clegg, who will have immediate supervision of the work, hope increased good will and more sympathetic understanding be- tween Federal and State police au- thorities will result. | In one respect the college differs from many other institutions of learn- ing. It has no tuition. But the “students” must pay their own travel- ing and living expenses. A faculty of 41 experts on (‘rlm- inology will cover sciences and arts| related to the preventing of crime, re- qmrlna practical work as well as “book larnin’'” of their studénts. Work will be done in psychiatry, ballistics, law, abnormal psychology, | toxicology, traffic control, communi- cations, photography and finger- printing. To Take Field Trips.
