CHICAGO, March 4.-Col,. Henry
Barrett Chamberlain, director of the
Chicago Crime Commission for the
last twelve years and originator of
the list of “public enemies," headed
by "Scarface Al" Capone, looked
thoroughly dovlmhearted tonight.
Chamberlain probably has read more
reports and followed up more “in-
side storios" On Chlcago's crime oc-
topus than any man.
.“I‘m not giving up the fight,"
Cliamberlaln said, “and I’m not say-
ing things are getting worse. But-"
Then the tall( soft spoken lawyer
and world war soldier went into
some of the problems which have
placed Chicago on the front pages as
an alleged example of a. crime rid-
den city. “In the last few months, I
might even say week" the director
continued, "lt is a fact that so many
things have happened that I don‘t
know who is trustworthy. By that I
mean, a man of absolute integrity
may be placed in a. position of public
trust today, and tomorrow he will
be accepting bribes/f _
Crooked Officials
Chamberlain said he knew that
there were crooked politicians. crook-
ed judges, crooked police and "strange
acting" at times in the presentation
of certain trials. “I don't know think
the city ever will be entirely free
of erime‘,’ he continued, "and I feel
certain that proliibltion never can be
enforced here. "The Commissioner of
Police, however,” and the director
emphasized his statement by tapping
his pipe sliarpiy on the desk, “can
clump down the lid in two hours, The
poilit is not that Chicago should be
run as an open town, oi' that it
should rule. The Mayor appoints the
that the Mnyor, and not the gangs,
should rule. “The Mayor appoints the j
Police Commissioner. He appoints the 3
Civil Service Commission, wliicli has

ployees nnd he had power to fire its!
members at will. The right kind of'

get one, the fight against the crime.

cab driver. They want to incrcase_
that fifteen cent tip a little.
