System for Protection of
Banks From Fraud
OAKLAND. Feb. 24.— That the thumb

adapted from the realm of criminology

rolice. in an address tonight. He has
prepared designs showing how thumb
prints may be taken on checks issued
to travelers; duplicates may be sent
away just as other data for identifica
tion is forwarded, and when the trav
eler presents his checks for payment
lie is quickly identified by what all de
tectives consider an infallible system.
Caldwell stands as one of the fore
most identification experts in the coun
try today. He was one of the chief
speakers at the Seattle gathering, and
a few days ago he received a personal
letter from the main office of a firm
"which manufactures criminal identi
fication eystems. telling him that the
F.vstem in the Oakland police depart
ment is superior to any other in this
country. It was planned by Captain
of Detectives W. J. Petersen.
