Thirty million dollars worth of liquor at current prices represent%, roughly, about eight million bottles. Consider- ing, therefore, that there are 120,000,- 000 people in the United States, how lar would 8,000,000bottles go—in a Year? Actually, they would supply about two drinks in twelve months for each American adult.

This system could- not be employed in the early,hours of the morning be cause `there would not necessailly. be sufficient traiitc on the road to form a tragic barrier against the thieves. It would 'not apply, either, in the ease of motor bandits who rob, coun- try ,of and escape from the scene in stolen motorcars; A similar, system with, however, the employment of real barriers could be operated. In my view the time has arrived when police controls at -various points on our roads have become necessary. And at' these eoutrols the police should have, a means of effectively stopping cars whose drivers:i lave a particular: desire not to be stopped. Mapped -Areas Here again, areas would have to be. carefully mapped out so an to create- ae little ea, possible delay to traffic generally. .But the controls would al- so have to be so arranged that`eseapr ingrmotor bandits would' be confined to a smell ;area`. The barriers could be constructed on similar lines to those leder' at some level crossings— that is, they could be raised or lower- ed as, required. , So as to cause as little delay as pos sib]e, the control police could let in- nocent traffic filter through. As with the controls in London, the police in charge would be in telephonic com- munication with police headquarters in London, and,,of course, all country stations. . -Chaser cars would try either to catch the thieves or, failing that,. to drive into the police controls. , In country towns local .authorities which could not afford the expense of fast abuser cars -might use fast motor- cycles for the purpose. Turns Cop Sir HenrySeagrave Tells How He . Would Make Life of Britain Motor Bandits Uneasy • High speed crime is setting the po- lite :;an entirely new problem.` All kinds of .fantastic theories' have been suggested ;to them for catching motor bandits or thieves vela'o use the motor- car 'for getting as far from the scene of their -crime in the .Shortest possible time,; Meanwhile, no doubt, the pollee are quietly „perfecting their 'plans. They are unlikely to publish these for the benefit of the criminais they. have to hunt. This articleis, therefore; not of critical nature. It' is, 1t'owover, a sub- ject that interests ene keenly,.- A con- eiderable past of :my life has;: ,been" in motor -racing, trying to catch up :and overhaul, cars ahead of me. Police Handicap In the race between the escaping motor bandit and the police it may be said that the niotor bandit, except on very. rare occasions starts With a big. lead. More often than not the handi- cap makes it impossible for the police to overtake him in a straight race be- fore he can clear 'town and abandon bis stolen motor -car. ' Let us take a concrete case, A gang of modern highway robbers in their stolen mass-produced car (they usual- ly'ch'oose one that is difficult to iden- tify, and, not a racingcar•',as many people suppose) hold up a bank in the Islington Road, North London, Eng- land. - They slip into their :car- with the proceeds, of the robbery and 'start away. Now let us presume .that the Flying Squad method is to be used in catching .them. - Much, of course, de- pends onwhere the nearest chaser car, in the neighborhood is stationed But in any case a,"delay of probably ten minuses must occur before- com- munication can ba established be- tween beadtivarters and the Flying Squad car.' Ten minutes' start. in London is a big start. I should not like to give a driver of a email 10-h.p. ear a ten- minute start in a race from Westmin- ster to Putney Bridge, even 11 1 was driving. a 40-h.p. sports car capable of a really high speed. The motor bandit bas also this ad- vantage, He can dodge from street to street and leave bis pursuers utter- ly confused. Past cars are admittedly useful and the police authorities are wile ID pro- curing the fastest available. Consid- eration sbould also be given to the question of acceleration, a vital mat- ter in any chase in congested cities,, Road Barriers But it' is obvious, in view of recent experiences, that fast cars are not alone sufficient. A great deal has been said and written about road bar. tiers. What has probably been over- looked ie the fact that in Central Lon- don, at least, we have the most effec- tive road barriers possible. I refer to our traffic. It only needs the police- man at any -important Grossing to bold up bis hand to secure in a few seconds the most effective barrier possible—a traffic block. No doubt thereis some means of communication available between the various police headquarters and sub- stations for communicating with the traffic control police. But these could not be as rtipid as telephonic com- munication would bo, • Exits Guarded By the establishment of telephonic communication between the traffic control pollee at various points, the telephone 'could be placed on refuges or lamp standards, these officers could quickly be informed when motor ban- dits were trying to escape out of Lon- don. f This telephonic system would have to be carefully Mapped out. I should imagine that there is not a single exit from London that 18 not guarded at some point by a traffic policeman. The Portsmouth Road, the Brighton Road, the Great North Road, and the Great West 'Road are all policed at points• where they make their exit from Lon- don. No General Hoid-Up The argument that ocurs at first' against Oafs principle is that when- ever a. motor raid occurs the Whole traffic of London would bave to be held up. • But this would not really be necessary. Let us presume that our motor ban- dits have been identified and repott- ed to be making their esoape in a westerly direction out of town, As a precaution all the police at the exit points would receive a telephone warn, Ing. The reason for warning all po- lice would be in case the bandits were doubling on their tracks. Filtered Traffic As. Soon al the policeman at the con- tro] point on, say, the junction of the Great •West Road and the old .Brent- ford- Road received'' his warning be would blow his whistle and procure the services of other constables. • He would not stop traffic entirely ' but it inter past. In the meanwhile other constables would examine the tine of tragic in search of the wanted car. If they identified It all traffic would be stop- ped. Unless by a curious bit of luck the escapingbandits happened to be at the head of the queue, they: would effectively be hed,ed in by other traf- in: this way car• bandits in London and other large Ogee could be effec- tively hedged in.

Another step 111 the age -long search by man far a process by which he couid manufacture gems artificially has just been taken. Chemists have succeeded in making sapphires and rubies from pure clay. Specially designed vessels are em- pioyed to melt the clay, drops of which are then cooled and turned into fine gems. They are already being sold for use in delicate grinding and cut- ting appliances, in watches, and Rot personal wear, it was thirty-six years ago, in 1883, that man first made his own version of that monarch of gems, the diamond, by chemistry. The celebrated French chemist, Henri Moissan, then startled the world by producing diamonds ob- tained by heating iron, which contain-, ed dissolved carbon, in electric fur- naces of his own Invention, and .sud- denly cooling the molten material. But h1 spite et. the sensation, the diamonds were unmarketable. They were minute and exceedingly costly. And to this day they have never been made cheaply enough to be a com- mercial proposition. There seems no reason, however, why some modifica- tion of this process, or perhaps an en- tirely new method, should not make the production of artificial diamonds as successful -as that of rubies and sapphires. The well-lntown "paste" diamonds are in a different class. They consist of a specie] kind of glass, but an enor- mous trade is done in them! Pearl Trade Secrets In one direction man-made gems have had complete success. That is the pearl trade. It is well known that a pearl oyster deposits a secretion which eventually forms its pearl. It occurred to amen to regularize this production by inserting a foreign body into living oysters, the deposits on which would make fine pearls. This process, operated chiefly by the Japanese, has proved very eifci- ent, an iia very large trade is done in these "cultured" pestles, as they are called. Other manmade pearls are made from mother-of-pearl, and hollow glass beads filled with 'wax and coated with a combination of gelatine and minute silvery scales from a little freshwater fish called the bleak. But these, like "paste" diamonds, are mere imitations, and have not the same chemical con- stituents and properties as the orig- inals, as is the case with' "cultured" pearls, electrically produced diamonds and the Latest German rubies and sap- phires. At the same time, so far as looks are concerned, many, of the artificial pearls sold today are se pertect that it is impossible to tell them from tate real thing, Minard's Liniment for Neuralgia.
