of the community is essential. Its
role is quite as important, and its
responsibility as great, as that of the
federal, state, or local governments
in coping with the seriousness of this
menace to society.
"Without the intelligent co-operation
of all citizens, without com
munity support and interest," he
urges, "no people can achieve a con
trol over crime. In the United
States, crime control must neces
sarily depend as much on the county
sheriff and the local law enforcement
officers, as upon the federal agents
and the police forces of the cities.
More vitally, it is to an enlightened
public opinion to which we must look
for the cure of the causes of crime
as v.eU as the apprehension of the
criminal.
"The roots of crime reach out into
the community," Mr. Cummings con
tinuse, . . . whether it be city or
hamlet in which the criminal first
embarks on his career. It is here,
therefore, that the initial opportun
ity lies for prevention. The better
ment of schools, the elimination of
slums, the improvement of working
conditions and of homes these and
other social advances all help to re
move crime-breeding environments,
and thus the number of recruits for
the crime army of tomorrow.
"Important, too, is a better co
ordination between local police au
thorities and citizens. Public eup
port in full measure is needed, if
the work of law enforcement officers
is to be effetive. The citizens of each
community must understand the
work and problems of the law en
forcement officers, and they need to
be kept informed of what these of
ficers are doing."
"It is essential also that the pub
lic insist that the law enforcement
agencies be staffed with the best'
possible personnel. Security of Jobs
is desirable, in order to maintain a
maximum efficiency. Other factors
making for more efficient personnel'
are adequate salaries, freedom from
political interference, and high pro
fessional standards of training for
all."
Conveniently located at
corner of 5th and Main,

Whether Edith B. Stone, widow of
a Chattanooga dentist, is entitled
to recover $10,000 or $600 only from
the Physicians Casualty association
of Omaha was argued and submitted
to the supreme court Wednesday. The
smaller amount, under the terms of
the policy, was payable only when
death followed suffocation from il
luminating or other gases or when
poison was taken accidentally.
Dr. Stone died from carbon mon
oxide poisoning, being found in his
garage with his motor running. Hia
widow claims that carbon monoxide
is not a gas, that he did not die
from suffocation, and that while it is
a poison the policy clause meant the
smaller amount would be paid when
poison was taken accidentally where
as in this case death resulted from
an involuntary act on his part. The
company took the pc-flition that it
was a case of suicide and cited the
fact that some time before he had
been found in his office with gas
Jets open. The plaintiff said that this
was accidental and occurred after he
had been out to a convivial profes
sional meeting.
