That is the theory of Maj. W. H. Drane Lester, assistant director of the federal bureau of investiga- tion under J. Edgar Hoover. “We have had to kill only nine criminals out of 12,000 captured in the last three years”, he says. “The criminal, knowing we are capable of protecting our own lives, rarely chooses to shoot it out with us”.

It has requested a master plan embracing every proposed development contemplating the use of Federal funds in every state. It is impossible for the Florida Planning Board to furnish such plans without kno’ needs of each county, and turn will depend upon the county planning councils for county mas- ter plans which will be compiled by the State Board in the making of its master plan for the entire state. In order to stimulate county planning, Gross has visited four- teen counties since he was ap- pointed executive secretary of the State Board by Governor Cone on January 1, and plans to visit all of the 67 counties before he be- gins work on the state master plan. New economic and social prob- lems are confronting county and state planning bodies, Gross’ said. This is especially true in the con- servation and protection of forest and water resources, the polutien of streams, and beach erosion The migration of labor to-Flor- ida, caused by the development of ne windustries in the state, has raised new social problems which must be solved. This migration must be assimilated and adjusted to southern custor and con- ditions.
