nological developments such as
automobiles, machine guns and air-

which old-fashioned local and discon-

the broader modern protection oi State |
police systems, James E. Baum, dep-
uty manager American Bankers Asso-
ciation in charge of its crime inves-
tigating department, declares in the
protective section of the Americar
Bankers Association Journal.
“The Association's Protective Com-
mittee Las repeatedly urged the ad-
vantages of extending state police sys- |
tems beyond the nine eastern States
which have enjoyed this protection for |
“The |
time has passed when we can safely
rely upon the disconnected and often- |
times ineffective methods of local and |
many years,” Mr. Baum says.
county police, The advent of automo-
biles and better roads, to say nothing
of machine guns and airplanes, de-
mands the same wide latitude in au- |
thority and field of operation be given
the police no less than the criminal.”
Statewide Pelice Plans Best
fle quotes a Kansas judge as sayin; |
that “our system of sheriffs and con. |
stables was not designed to meet pres- |
ent-day conditions, As a system of law |
enforcement, it is as out of date as
old common-law pleading, both evolved |
about the same time. The semi-mili- |
tary, highly trained State police officer |
owing allegiance only to State laws, |
is the most effective agency for order
yet brought forth.”
“Every year the robbery experienc.
of banks in the nine States having
' State police proves the merits and
| urgent need of State-wide police pro-
tection,” says Mr. Baum. “Last year,
, for example, there were 38 bank hold- |
ups in Connecticut, Maine, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and West
Virginia where State police forces are
operated,” he continues. “Although
this total is exceptionally high due to
an unprecedented number of robberies
in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, it is
little more than half the number of
daylight bank robberies suffered in
1930 in Illinois alone. Furthermore,
this total of 38 robberies in the nine |
eastern States was exceeded in Call
fornia, where there were 42 bank
holdups, and in Ohio where banks suf-
fered 40 similar attacks.
Holdups Fewer Under New Plan
‘If we extend the comparison of the
robbery experience in these States en-
joying State-wide police protection to
the record in eight central and far
western States, we find a total of 304
bank holdups in the latter group. The
odds, therefore, continue to be not less
| than 8 to 1 against the banks in these
western States, where they are denied
the speedy, coordinated action of State
police and their modern means of
transportation and communication.
The same comparison holds true of
the farmers’ losses through robberies
of livestock, poultry, produce, etc.
“Moreover, these State police forces
| invariably yield an operating profit in
the amount of fines collected and the
value of stolen property recovered.
| Bankers interested in cutting down the

cost of robbery insurance might well
consider this job of extending State
police systems as a timely, co-opera-
tive service to be undertaken along
side the farmers.”
BANK EMPLOYEES
SENT TO SCHOOL
Management Methods Taught
Throughout Country.
American Institute of Banking
: Section of the American Bankers
Association conducts 228 chapters, or
local banking schools in as many cities
throughout the country. One large city
chapter has almost 6,000 students,
who are combining formal theoretical
and practical banking studies with
their daily working experience and
other places have these schools with
a thousand to two thousand students,
In addition there are fifty study groups
in small communities with some 6,000
enrollments. All told over 42,000 bank
people are taking these courses—not
only clerks, but junior officers and even
senior officers in some of the more ad-
vanced work.
The work of the institute has beew
declared to be “a dynamic economic
force, pouring into banking a broaden-
ing, deepening stream of better quali-
fled bankers than could be developed
merely by the daily workings of bank-
ing itself,” and it has been suggested
that every bank worker should be com-
pelled to combine institute courses
with his work. A good many banks
now make it a part of the contract of
employment that #n employee shall
undertake to render himself proficient
and trustwerthy in banking by taking
inslitate work and others make suc-
cessful progress in this educational
aspect of banking a prerequisite to
promotion. Plans are being developed
to make the benefits of banking edu-
cation through this organization more
generally available in the rural dis-
tricts.
PORT TO PHILIPSBURG
ROAD TO COST $288,638.10.
The contract has been awarded for
the construction of 6.22 miles of bi-
tuminous surface macadam road
which will close the partially unim-
proved 11.75 miles gap on Traffic
| Route 350 between Port Matilda and
Philipsburg, Centre county, Sam
Lewis, Secretary of Highways an-
nounced today. The contractors
jare A. and J. B. Fogel and E. L.
| Grannis, of Hollidaysburg, Pa., who
|are to receive $144,393.10 for the
work.
| The other part of this project, 5.59
| miles, is being constructed by M.
| Bennett & Sons, of Indiana, Pa. at
|a cost of $144,245, both jobs involv-
| ing Federal Aid funds.
The completion of the double pro-
this fall will provide a hard sur-
route from the southwestern
part of the country to Bellefonte,
the county seat, as well as
a shorter through-route to State Col-
lege from the western part of the
State, eliminating several miles of
travel between Clearfield and State
| College by the present improved
roads.
