Chief of Bureau of Investigations ]
Addresses Florence Crittenton
Mission Convention.
Intimates Law May Be Amended to j
Prevent Blackmail by TJnscru- j I
pnlous Women.
Need of state laws again at white
slavery and of international treaties
thereby white slavers can be extradited
were discussed by A. Bruce Bie- ?
laski, chief of the bureau of investigations
of the Department of Justice, at 3
annual conference of the National
Florence Crittenton Mission, in session 1
in the parish hall of Trinity Protes- E
fcant Episcopal Church today. Mr. Ble- ^
laski pointed out that the federal law r
governing white slave cases is lnade- c
quale, inasmuch as it deals ohly with 8
Interstate transportation of women and
girls. t
> nMMUnM ftf O
blackmail cases in connection with al- t
leged white slave cases, saying that 1'
these attempts to blackmail are hin- I ?
dering the enforcement of the law. He c
Elnted out that men who deal in worn- u
for their own personal gain have c
thing to fear from blackmail.
iOn the other hand, he explained, in 1
fhe case of women where the spirit of f
the federal statue is not violated, and \
where the women attempt to black- c
Shail men, the women have in some in- v
stances been arrested and charged /
with conspiracy. This, he said, would ?
have a tendency to confuse women of h
file underworld and might possibly n
lake them fear to testify against &
Pile slavers. He said that these
ckmall cases were having a bad eft
even in commercial cases, and that
ause of them it may be necessary
amend the federal law. R
Treaties Are Needed. c*
i
|He said that the Department of Jus- ti
lice has made endeavors to get some j e\
.Italian white slavers, but that because g]
Avio?<T,or /.nn/JififtriB it him hppn im- I R
possible to extradite them. reaties T
??r this purpose are necessary between G
Italy and the United States, he said, t<
and between this country and several m
Khers, and not only for white slave s
oases, but for violations of many mod- s<
om statutes. n
I In closing, Mr. Bielaski, on behalf rt
both of the Department of Justice and s.
esonally for the Attorney General, c
nked the Florence Crittertton mis- H
Sions for the aid which they have ex- a
tended to the department from time c]
to time. tl

ARMY OFFICERS'RESERVE
OF 30,000 PLANNED
House Committee Recommends Bill
to Designate Military Training
Schools in Each State.
An arniv officers' reserve of at least
30.000 trained men from the military
schools is contemplated in the McKellar
bill, which has been reported to the
House from the military affairs committee.
The bill hag the indorsement of
the Secretary of War and is one of the
administrative measures to build up
the solidarity and strength of the army.
It provides for a military training
which must have at least 300 students
in each state. The schools will give
sound academic instruction in addition
to military training, and the military
portion of the courses is to fit the students
for the duties of reserve or volunteer
officers in time of need.
State to Designate Schools.
The bill provides that the state legislatures
shall designate the institution
which is to receive the benefits of the
act. Kach state must contribute $40,000
a year to the training school and the
national government contribute $80,000.
The boys are to be selected by competitive
examination from each county in
every state by the superintendents of
public Instruction.
When selected they are to be housed,
fed, clothed and maintained, and given
a splendid academic education and a
military training under experienced
army officers during their whole course,
will be given them.
Aiiex gia.uua.non iney are unaer contract
to serve as officers in the military
service of the United States at
any time they may be called upon by
the United States within a period of
seven years after graduation. This will
afford to Ihe government when all the
institutions are in operation an evercontinuing
reserve of about 30.000.
15,000 Always Under Training.
Under the provisions of this bill there
will be more than 15,000 boys in these
institutions at all times when all the
institutions are in operation.
