U. S. Department of Commerce
Plans to Open Pilfering
Prevention Bureaus.
Washington. ? The Popart ment of
Commerce plans t?> suppress pilfering
ui American ports. Theft-prevention
bureaus will be oy u till sited at New,
York, Sun Francises and other Impor
taut places.
In making this a umuncenieiit . the
department explains! that the losses
from theft const l tut** a heavy tax on
our export trade.
i The transportation division of the
bureau of foreign 4unl domestic ^cxmi
merce (luring the last six months has
| been inaklng a special study . of the
best method of export packing, a sub
ject which for soino^oars has been *
mutter of Increasing concern to tine
exporters of the country and to the
I bureau. Thin Investigation has been
conducted ut the request of the house
committee on merchant marine and
fisheries.
Mnny large Industrial centers In the
United States have been visited In or
der to get at first hand modern Ideas
on packing and pilfering prevention.
While proper packing will, do much to
prevent theft and pilferage, it does not
. entirely solve the problem. Skilled
i thieves, well organized, are able to
| remove goods from packing cases with?
! out leaving any trace of the robbery,
and tho loss is not discovered until
the case Is opened on its arrival at
destination.
| Separate Investigations. .
In following up these losses the ma
I rine tftsurance companies, the steam*
! ship owners and th,e mil carriers carry
' on their separate Investigations. In
j other words, there has been little co
; ordination of effort, each Interested
| element making its own fight against
! the evil.
| It is for this reason that the trans*
portatlon division suggested the estab
j llshment of a central bureau of lnfor
1 matlon at each of the principal ports
! so that there might be an exchange of
Information which would simplify the
work of the investigators and
strengthen their efforts so that a
united, collaborative effort could be
made to check this spreading menace.
This Idea met with the utmost ap
proval of the various interests in
volved and at a recent meeting in New
York, the transportation division was
asked to assist In the formation of
such n bureau for that port to be sup
ported by the marine underwriters, the
steamship companies, the railway lines,
and the shippers' organizations, all of
which would be benefited by Its activi
ties. A committee was formed on June
28 at the customs house in New York
to devise ways and means for estab
lishing such a bureau, and 'its organi
zation is assured at an early date. .
It is expected that similar organiza
tions will be formed at each of the
large ports so that before long the
pilferers will be convinced that it will
be poor policy to tamper with Inter
state and foreign shipments.
Klein Explain*.
Director Klein of the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce ex
plained :
"Perhaps one of the main reasons
why this evil has grown Is the fact
that It has been difficult to obtain con-,
victions In the local courts. Even when
a trained invest^ator discovers the
stolen goods in the possession of a
'fence* or catches an employee in the
act of stealing, there Is great difficulty
in absolutely identifying' the merchan
dise, and without such identification,
conviction is impossible. , The Carlln
act, which seeks to provide penalties
for the pilferage of goods moving in
interstate commerce, provides penal
ties only for the stealing of baggage
from a public truck or van, neither
freight nor express matter being spe
cifically provided for.
"It Is evident that the federal leg
islation on the subject should be
amended If the full usefulness of such
a central bureau of Information is to
be attained.
"It Is understood that an effort will
be made to secure amendments to the
Carlln act bo as to provide specific
penalties for stealing from Interstate
.shipments loaded on trucks or stored
in warehouses with the hope that Jftis
will have a marked effect In reducing
pilferage losses."
Draw Diseased Blood,
Reinject Purified Fluid
New Haven, Conn. ? Two unusual
operations for transfusion of blood,
have been carried through successfully
at the New Haven General hospital,
now a part of the medical school of
Tale university. In each Instance the
person's blood was, drawn off and In
jected back Into the system.
The first case wns tbat of a woman
who had a hemorrhage In the abdomen.
The surgeons drew off the blood from
the abdomen, tied the vessels, and af
ter filtering the blood, transfused it
back into l?er system. *
Later, a man was admitted with
hemorrhage of the liver. The abdomen
was filled with blood. The staff
treated the liver. Altered the blood
drawn off and Injected It through the
arm.
. Both patients are regarded as con
valescents.
' A week ago, lifter a negro lad had
been srabhed tinder the hearr. the sur
geons opened the heart cavity. washed
the organ and mended a cilt. drew the
blood from the caVity and sewed up
the wound. He is recovering.*
