In his address to members of the Emergency Crime Committee of the InterġĢtional Association of Chiefs of Police, recently assembled in Washington, The Attorney General of the United states said in part : "We are trying to put new life into the administration of justice, trying to humanize it and liberalize it, and at the same tiģe make it more effective and more successful. Each one of you know5 what your own problĤm id and we have our Federal problems and our state problems and our municipal and local problems. "Primarily, what I am hoping to accomplish is to bring about more complete heartfelt and friendly cooperation and coordination amongst the various law enforcing agencies of the country than ever existed before . Now, I think we can do that not perhaps on account of any particular merit of our own , but because we have the support, I think , now in fuller measure than I have l²nown it in my time of the people of the country. "I have been too many years engaged in battling with crime , as your President personally knows , to have any illusions about the difficult, the long persi stent , unre­ lenting pressure , that has got to be exerted by the law enforcing agencies . Everything that you can think of that will help in this campaign should be coordinated and systemized and made effective . Not only should there be a study of de­ vices and plans of detecting and preventing those who have been guilty of offenses, but neVi methods should constantly be studied and within our own ranks there should be greater morale." One of the new methods of fighting crime , as mentioned by the Attorney General , is aptly illustrated by the Single Finger­ print File in the Identification Unit of the Division of Investi­ gation, devoted to known or suspected kidnapers and extortioners . Every law enforcement official in the country is urged to make use of this file . In order that this file may be made as complete as possible, it is requested that law enforcement officials who can furnish from the ir files names of gangsters or individuals associated in the past with crimes of kidnaping and extortion, submit to the Division for entry in its Single Fingerprint File, the names, arrest or commitment numbers and fingerprint classifications of these individuals in order that the Division 's file may be maintained as comprehensively as possible. Since this is the lasĥ issue oĦ the Bulletin before the Christmas season, I wish to take this opportunity 'of wishing each one of you a happy Christmas .
