Increase in Crime. There has been rather big increase in serious crimes and pelty larcentes in 1946, compared with 1930, it was learned C. G. Perdue, Acting Commissioner of Pollee.
from the Hon.
Mr
Mr Perdue stated that in 1940 the number of serious crimes was 15,216, aaguinst 11,004 in 1030. The num- ber of petty larcenies had also gone up considerably, but there had been a reduction in the number of out- rakes or offences against persons with violence.
One of the reasons for the increase in pelly larcentes, suld Mr Perdue, was undoubtedly the increase in the population; another was that when the refugees first came to the Colony many of them had only a certain amount of money which lasted them for a short white, ofter which they had nothing to live on.

With a view to combating the crime. Increase, an additional 150 Cantonese constables will be enrolled in April, but the other contingents - of the Force will remain the same.
One of the problems facing the Police Force at the moment, added Mr Perdue, was the dificulty of get- ting criminals and undesirables away from the Colony."
As regards the Police Reserve, Mr Pertue stated that the toul strength now is about 125 short of the figure of 1,500 authorised by Government. Very good progress had beand made by the Chinese Company, who had bcen allotted a strength of 1,000, but vacancies still existed in the Indian Company and Emergency Unit.
It is expected that the City Hall Library will soon be ready for the use of the Police Reserve na their headquarters. Some minor interior alterations will have to be mode and these will take about a month. The car park_adjoining the Library will not be affected.
Nightsoll Removal. In connection with the report published of the abandonment of the proposal to in- crease the Assessment rates by one per cent, to meet the cost of removal of nightsoll by Government, it is Jearned that the statement was pre- mature. No final decision in the matter has yet been reached.
