FINGER-PRINTS.

CRIME A QUESTION OF: ENVIRONMENT.

Superintendent. C. S. Collins, who is retiring from Scotland Yard after devoting thirty five years or more to the work connected with the Identification of criminals, stated that the conclusion it which tie has arrived as the result of all his experience, is that crime is largely a question of environment Improve that, he said. do away with slums, and petty crime, at any rate, would be reduced con siderably...

As chief of the Central Finger Print Bureau, he has seen a far greater number of criminals identified than was ever possible, before the perfection of the pre- sent system. The effect of this identification has been to give longer terms of punishment to old offenders. Four hundred thousand printing ink sets of finger im pressions have been taken in the past quarter of a century, Ten per cent. have been those of women. In children's courts the system is not in force.

By the finger-print system Supt. Collins said previous records against criminals, no matter what name they may give, are discover. led in a few minutes, If, as some- times happens, prisoners refuse to have an impression taken they are sent to jail, and the warders are instructed to do the work. Since the introduction of the system 250,000 identification have been made at the bureau.

Superintendent Collins dis counted the theory that the finger-

HUSH BATTLESHIPS.

AMERICAN STORIES OF BRITISH ABROPLANES:

Weird and wonderful details of the new British battleships, Nelson and Rodney continue to appear in the American Freas, says the Naval correspondent of the Daily News.

We have already learned from this quarterthe reputed dimensions, speed, armour, and armament of the vessels, but now comes a more startling revelation: A Washing ton dispatch states that much interest has been aroused in the capital by reports, that each battle- ahin is to carry 80 neroplanes,

High officials of the Government, no less than United States naval officers, we learn, are discussing this news, and speculating as to its significance. They want to know whether the Nelson and Rodney are battleships or aircraft-carriers, and while, the naval officers are apparently satisfied that they are battleships, some officials hold them to be a compron ise between both types

They arimit, however, that the British Admiralty "is within the letter of the Washington Treaty In putting as many planes on them as they can carry."

EXAGGERATED.

American naval experts are being "not further quoted as much worried over the prospect of the two new British battleships

large number of carrying a acroplanes.

Their equanimity is due to the. fact that even the very few aero planes cazzied by American print method was used by the battleships have proved a source Chinese thousands of years ago, of trouble, as na several occasions but said that in his researches he they have been seriously damaged had come across instances where by the discharge of the big guns. the Japanese had used finger. It is, however, quite certain that prints as a means of attestation of the number of aircraft which this latest American report attributes documents.

to the new British battleships is Krossly exaggerated.

It was not at all probable- that they would ever get two com- plete prints which were identical. He added that it was only dur ing the last hundred years that the science of finger-prints had made anything in the nature of rapid strides.

Superintendent Collins followed the work of Sir William Herschell, who, as a Civil Servant.in India, got the natives to attach their finger-prints to documents. The work was then carried a little further by Sir Francis Galton, and Superintendent Collins look up the work where it was left by them. Neither of them had then developed the system "as a means of identification."

Superintendent Collins also in vented a system of telegraphing, by means of a code, finger-prints to other countries.

There is a great deal of research work still to be done, and Supt. Collins intends to devote his spare time to it.

AIRCRAFT CARRIERS.

CONSIGNEES.

There will consequently be no great space left over for aviation equipment. The American estimate THE BEN LINE STEAMERS, LTD. of 80 planes apiece becomes fan- tastic when we reflect that neither the Argus oor two ships specially designed as carriers, can accom-". modate more than 20 aircraft each

or so the text-books say.

The Treaty defines an aircraft carrier as "a vessel of war, with displacement in excess of 10,000 tone displacement, designed for the specific and exclusive purpose of carrying aircraft."
