Nationwide interest has been shown in the extension of the Fed eral Bureau of Investigation 's program of cooperation with law enforcement agencies through the Police Training School which was begun at the Bureau , in Washington , D. C. , on July 29, 1935. In view of the numerous appl icat ions and inquiries received at the Bureau concerning the Pol ice Training School, and further, that the method of choice in sending invitations to attend the school may be ful ly understood , I feel it desirable to explain the manner in which the fac ili ties of the Pol ice Training School are being made avai lable to the law en forcement agencies throughout the country . The selection of those who are to attend the Pol ice Training' School of the F. B. I. is based upon appl ications received by the Bureau from law enforcement agencies . There is no set form of appl ication. A written request , to send a representative to the school, addressed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation , United States Department of Justice , Washington , D. C. , will suffice . It should be observed that the invi tations are extended to the law enforcement organization and not to indi vidual s. Those receiving such invitations should bear in mind the nature of the course and the qual ificat ions of the personnel in the ir departments in mak ing the selection of a representative , who will be able, upon com pletion of the course , to serve in the best possible manner the organization wh ich he represents . The Bureau has not indicated any specific require ments in the nature of qual ifications for those selected but has allowed the organization invited to choose its own representat ive . Upon receipt of such an invitation , the law enforcement agency may elect to send the Chief of Police , Sheriff, the Superintendent , Director , or other executive offi cial in charge of the organization, or any other person official ly connect ed with it. The facil ities available for extending to law enforcement offi cers the courses of instruction in the Pol ice Training School are limited . It will , therefore , be necessary to limit the number who will be in attend ance at each of the se schools and because of the large number of appl ica tions received , it is impossible to determine how long it will be before an invitation may be extended to any one department or organizat ion. However, the Bureau will be pleased to receive appl icati ons from regularly constituted law enforcement agencies and these appl icati ons will be recorded , so that they may receive appropriate consideration in conne c tion with the selection of personnel to attend schools of this type , which will follow that presently being conducted at the Bureau in Washington, D. C. Director. 2 USE OF IDENTIFICATION ORDERS The Federal Bureau of Inves tigation issues Identification Orders containing fingerprints, photograph , descriptive da ta and the criminal history of individuals whose apprehensions are desired by the Bureau . It has been the Bureau 's expe rience that the most effective use made of these Identifi cation Orders is their being filed in the permanent finger print files of the various police departments and other law enforcement agencies, under the appropriate fingerprint clas sification , so when the fugitive is arres ted and finger printed by a police department or sheriff ' s office, his fingerprint,s are immediately identified in the fingerprint file . Law enforcement agencies which are not recelvll1g a suffi cient number of copies of Identification Orders issued by the Federal Bureau of InVestigation so that one copy is available for immediate filing in its Identification Unit while copies are being used in Detective Bureaus and other investigative units , are requested to advise the Bureau or the nearest field office of the Federal Bureau of Investi gation in order that arrangements may be made to furnish a more adequate supply . 3 MOULAGE An important field in identification work is that of re produc ing evidence in plastic form . This is generally referred to as the Moulage methed . The absolute accuracy of detail that is poss ible in reproducing any object with the Moulage method makes it of great value to law enforcement officials in the ir appl ication of scientific methods to crime problems. Since evidence in important crimes must be studied thorough ly over a period of time for the possible leads that can be detected from it, preservation of that evidence is highly important . Several problems arise in connection with the preservation of evidence and its proper recording for future use in checking and comparative purposes . Photography has been uti lized to a large extent, proving of great value in recording and preserving the scene of the crime and particular ex hibits of evidence. While photography has been developed to a high state of perfection , it still has disadvantages. OWing to phys ical conditions of light and space , it is often impossibl e to obtain a photograph that will be an absolute , correct impress ion of the facts . The photograph fails to reproduce one essential part of a particular object of evidence , mainly its third dimension, depth , and often that detail is nece ssary to make an identification . Then to, in many cases it is highly desirable that the exact form of a particular object with all dimensions be reta ined for later use . Th is, except for some process of creating an exact model might be imposs ible because of the danger of deterioration, putrefaction , or decomposition . The appl ication of the Moulage process does not require any great amount of training or any particular technique. Anyone with a litt le practice can turn out very commendable work , the complete in structions furnished by the manufacturers of the various Moulage pro ducts being of great assistance.
