CRIME GUT Chief of New Association Says Conviction Data to Spur Police. ‘The new Washington Criminal Jus- tice Association is making a factual survey of crime in Wi first six months of 1936, with a view to making public the “crime rate” of this city, within about & month. ‘This was learned from James M. Hepbron, acting director of the asso- ciation, who yesterday launched pub- licly on his new duties. The survey is being made by the staff out of head- quarters of the association in the Evans Building. Three principal factors are being considered: 1. How much crime is there in Washington? 2. What happens to these cases of crime “known to police”? How many are solved by arrest? 3. How many of those arrested are tried and convicted? As explained by Hepbron, who is making a series of addresses on the need for the new association, and its }nctivmes. the factual survey is mak- | ing rapid progress. | Cites Enforcement Ratio. He predicts that the “crime rate of the District of Columbia will go down |in about the same ratio as the effi- ciency of law enforcement goes up.” ‘Without giving & hint as to any dis- closures so far in the District of Co- lumbia situation, Hepbron pointed the direction in which the local associa- for the | w; | tion is taking, by telling how the Balti- | more Criminal Justice Commission, of | which he is director, works. Speaking before the Soro) Club luncheon at the Willard Hotel | yesterday, in the first of his series of talks, Hepbron outlined the progress of law enforcement in Baltimore dur- ing the life of the Crime Commission there. First figures gathered by the Crime Commission years ago showed, Hep- | bron said, that only 1 in every 6 crimes was solved in Baltimore by arrest. But with regular publication of reports by the Crime Commission of the results accomplished in Jlaw enforcement brought an immediate drop in the ratio. The police solved 1 in every § crimes, then 1 in every 4, then 1 in | every 3, 1 in every 2, until the latest figures show, he said, that now 52 per cent of all crimes committed result in arrests. Accurate records were kept on | these arrests, the director explained, as to indictments and resuits of the cases in court. The bail bond situation was cleared up in Baltimore, he said, after it was found that some pieces of property had been put up for bond as much as 40 times. Now, he explained, no piece | of property can be used for more than DB SO DS OEDDDIDDDOIDDDID DO DSOS ID SO>S Abuse of the probation system was attacked by Hepbron, who said, how- ever, he was in favor of its proper administration. The “time element” in dispensation of justice is stressed by the associa- tion, Hepbron said, in order to pre- | vent long delays. Such delays, he charged, offered the time necessary | for “tampering with witnesses, tam- pering with juries,” and for witnesses to disappear from the jurisdiction of | the court. In Baltimore, he said, | justice had been speeded wuntil now | | they try, and dispose of, 90 per cent | of all cases within three weeks of | arrest. Records Spur Police. Referring to the periodical publica- tion of findings in the administration of crime from the poliée on up to the highest courts, Hepbron declared: “When they know everything they do is being carefully watched, it has a tendency to keep them on their toes. Bring the tremendous power of public opinion to bear upon the situation,” he said. “They simply cannot stand up under a barrage of carefully-pre- pared, honestly-intrepreted facts.” Already fine co-operation has been afforded by the police, here, Hepbron said, giving high praise to Maj. Ernest Brown, superintendent of police. He characterized Brown as an “honest, his organization' of the Metropolitan Boys Clubs, for the prevention of crime. “It 1s a great thing, in these clubs,” declared Hepbron, “to see the police But the public should give the police still more help, Hepbron declared. For instance there was need here now for new police quarters. Such old buildings as the one in which the police now are quartered, he said are “not conducive to good work.” Hepbron predicted that the admin- istration of justice would be greatly aided here in Washington by the new activities of the Washington Criminal Justice Association. “Justice will be swifter, more certain.” ‘Today Hepbron speaks to the Junior Board of Trade.
