M. Allen, Breaident N i?t ion. al Surety company of New York) Every time you feel tempted to .spend $85 on aomo pleasure or luxur\ for yourself or the family and then decide that you cannot afford it. form the habit of saying, "I cannot spend this $85 for my own pleasure, because I must pay it to the country's criminals?as my annual indirect tax t> the country's crime." 'I lie cost of crime and of tsuppression of crime is on. <,f the heaviest indiieel taxes which the American public pays. < rime costs piu, \ourself and every number of y.un fam )I \, also practiea11 y $s?,'? evei \ year. Every time a business man suf! fers a crime Jus.:, he passes it on to you in the increased price of your food, ^rent, ilothing, luxuries, insur ance and general expenses. Expert estimate that the money losses of the American public from .rune anT from.the additional cost of preventing. prosecuting and punishing crime -^are $1U,OOU,OOU,OUO ten billion dollars?every year. The population of the United States in 1P2G was 117,000,000 persons. Figure the annual indirect cost of crime to your whole family, then realize that crime is an appreciable item in the everdncreasing cost of your daily life. Every crime means a proportionate waste j of your money. Because of the outrageous nationwide crime wave of the last eight years the National Surety company recently started a movement to drill all criminals out of business?and, if possible, out of the country. In this nation-wide campaign against crime we ask your earnest, energetic aid. We ask you to help us in urging the enactment of stern anti-crime laws in every state, and in preventing these stern laws from being subsequently weakened in the interest of the criminal class. The most intelligent and effective step ever taken in the United States toward a real and permanent solution of the crime problem is the set of anti-crime laws, called the Baumes laws, which were passed by the New York state legislature about eight months ago. Although these laws are only preliminary and are not yet in final or complete form, they have already reduced general robbery losses in New York state 25 per cent, and have reduced banditry (robbery with deadly weapons with threat to kill) betweyn -10 and 50 per cent. The Baumes laws aim to segregate the confirmed criminal and put him safely under restraint, so that he cannot continue brutally and brazenly t<> attack honest, hard-working citizens. For this reason the Baumes laws fix definitely the punishment of fourthoffense felons at imprisonment for life. They also fix long-term punishments for third and second offense felons, so that their prison sentences will not depend upon the temporary whims and personal sentimentalities of judges and juries. They greatly restrict probation, parole and bail privileges and thus take the crime problem away from meddling by politicians. About three years ago a police magistrate allowed a notorious criminal to abscond by releasing him on trifling bail. When shown next day the criminal's long and dangerous record the magistrate was quoted as having exclaimed impulsively, to excuse himself, "But this man's friends did not tell me anything about his record when they spoke to me about his bail last night." It is to prevent improper personal influence in criminal cases that the Baumes laws have been made so rigid in their sentences. This rigidity of sentences under the Baumes laws is in your interest and fot your protection. These rigid laws segregating criminals are means to keep your homes safe from wrongdoers who might otherwise be prematurely released from the prisons. Whenever you read in a newspaper that some one wants to make the .j Baumes laws less rigid, you should recognize that an attempt is being made to break down one of the defenses of your own home. In addition to greatly reducing crime losses in New York, the Baumes laws are rapidly driving criminals out of the state. Criminals arrested in other states are telling the polic? and courts of those states that the new, stern anti-crime laws of New York have caused their migration. The public officials of these other states are also beginning to discuss what they had best to do to meet this invasion of ousted New York criminals. 1 he remedy is, of course, fop evor\ sta e to pass anti-crime laws *similu' to the Baumes laws, so that confirmee criminals will be driven from one stall to another until they are finaih dh'vcn out of the country. In this you*, who are living i:i other state; than New York, can greatly help Write to me for a copy of the Baumei "" laws and, when I send one to you forward it to your lot1#! state sen ' ator or assemblyman with u request I that he introduce u similar inftt.sure at the next session of your state legis.uturc These luw.s protect y.iu and your family and the peaceful home., in winch you aie silling.

' I . . ' i In conclusion, i e me m be r that this' i i-s no time for sentimentality . wr ' ! confirmed cnmina - < ruin has become too w idc-spread and deadly.' Also, the criminals themselves do not ; deserve sentimentality. Several very! thorough and scientific tests of the psychology of criminals have recently been made in the nation's prisons. These tests prove conclusively that the brains and minds of confirmed ' criminals are riot different pathologically from the brains and minds of ordinary folks. I The great majority of criminals, thej tests show, c hose a career ol crime deliberately, not because of their deficiency <>? abnormality of their brains, but because of their own free, clear will they believe that there is quicker and easier money in crime than in honest work. Although surrounded by other men who remain 1 honest and hard working in exactly I the same environment, these confirm- | ed criminal* dec id? ^hat they do not want to toil with hund or brain dur- i ing forty-five hours a week, like the i??t of uk Hiey prefer to Work one hour a wwk with a jimmy or an automatic piAloi while under the influence of a drug c Ailed heroin.
