CHICAGO, March 4.-Col,. Henry

Barrett Chamberlain, director of the Chicago Crime Commission for the last twelve years and originator of the list of “public enemies," headed by "Scarface Al" Capone, looked thoroughly dovlmhearted tonight. Chamberlain probably has read more reports and followed up more “in- side storios" On Chlcago's crime oc- topus than any man. .“I‘m not giving up the fight," Cliamberlaln said, “and I’m not say- ing things are getting worse. But-" Then the tall( soft spoken lawyer and world war soldier went into some of the problems which have placed Chicago on the front pages as an alleged example of a. crime rid- den city. “In the last few months, I might even say week" the director continued, "lt is a fact that so many things have happened that I don‘t know who is trustworthy. By that I mean, a man of absolute integrity may be placed in a. position of public trust today, and tomorrow he will be accepting bribes/f _

Crooked Officials

Chamberlain said he knew that

there were crooked politicians. crook- ed judges, crooked police and "strange acting" at times in the presentation of certain trials. “I don't know think the city ever will be entirely free of erime‘,’ he continued, "and I feel certain that proliibltion never can be enforced here. "The Commissioner of Police, however,” and the director emphasized his statement by tapping his pipe sliarpiy on the desk, “can clump down the lid in two hours, The poilit is not that Chicago should be run as an open town, oi' that it should rule. The Mayor appoints the that the Mnyor, and not the gangs, should rule. “The Mayor appoints the j Police Commissioner.
