Cities which, like Washington, have two or more policemen per 1,000 in- habitants, have less crime than comparable communities with smaller police departments, according to sta- tistics announced today by the Fed- eral Bureau of Investigation. Pointing out that a study has dis- closed a “definite relationship between the amount of crime and the number of police employes,” J. Edgar Hoover, F. B. I director, said cities with ap- proximately one policeman per 1,000 inhabitants reported 90 per cent more murders per 100,000 of population than cities with twice the number of policemen. The cities with the smaller police | forces, he said, reported 67 per cent | more robberies, 63 per cent more ag- | gravated assaults, 44 per cent more burglaries and 47 per cent more thefts than the cities with double-strength forces. The study was based on crime fig- ures for 1936. At police headquarters there it was stated that Washington has 2.2 policemen for every 1,000 citi- | zens. The authorized strength of the local police force is 1,391 year the department reported 14,288 serious crimes. Figures for other cities | were not available today. The F. B. I analysis showed there were, in 1936, five murders for each | 1.000 inhabitants in the well-policed | | cities, and slightly less than 10 mur- ders per 1.000 persons in the less adequately policed municipalities. Detailed figures will be published in | the F. B. I bulletin, Uniform Crime | Reports, to be issued the middle of | next month, MAJ. H. 0. GARTNER DIES HERE AT 57 \P. W. A.
