The system is similar to A newspapetr "telegraph news system. All reports are sent out frtom one central headquarters and are typed out on machines lo-- cated in all of the police stations. In this way a crime committed in Waukegan is relayed -- almost in-- stantly to all of the 'police stations on the circuit and {f a description of the criminal is gives. every police-- man in all of the cities knows it and is on the look out for the crimiual.

SPREAD OVER COUNTRY through the middle west and south-- western states, Deerfield police to day. admitted that the forgery -- of public improvement bonds for the village of Deerfield was near a so-- lution through the arrest of a man in Valparaiso, Ind., who is believed to be a member of the counterfeiting gang. ' Chief of Police Henry Peterson, of Deerfield, Monday night brought the man, Seuver Ronsanver, 35, of Ch+ cago, Gary and Valparaiso, to the county jail on a warrant charging him with forging bonds with the in-- tentions to defraund the village. .

Although Ransanver's room _ Was searthed none of the $4,000 in bonds was found. Bankers, Petersen sald, identified him as the man who at-- tempted to post them as collateral for the $2.000 loan which was re-- fused. The defendant was ready to walve extradition and come back to lit-- nols.

Says He Bought Bonds Ransanver advised Petersen that he got the improvement Jonds from a man named Fisher connected with a bond house. He believed, he is quoted as stating, that the intru--. ments were valid. ' Petersen was not hesitant in tell-- ing the sheriff that he thought Ran-- sanver one of several salesmen wotking over the country trying to sell the spurious issue. He stated that Hood had received calsl from as far away as Teras. Kansas and Missouri regarding the validity of the issue. . Each time bankers called. _ No loans, as far as can be learned, hare been made on the bonds and no demends have Bbeen made upon the villege for payment of amy . of them by people who might have made purchases.

BLOCK VOLUNTEER MOVE Establishment of a coast guard station at Waukegan is provided for in a ttlll entered in congress at Washington by Congress Carl R.: Chindblom, Monday afternoon, Approval of the bill by congress is subject to investigation as to the needs of the stat.on At this point on the lake, availability of government owned projperty on the lake shore and other matters which govern the location and operation of such a corps. ' Presentation of the . bill is the direct result of a conference held between Congressman Chindbloom and Postmaster Mance: Talcott in Washington Saturday. Bilock Volunteer Project Mr. Talcot, acting in behalf of the Waukegan Yacht club, bad sought to obtain permission from the war department relative to the establishment of a volunteer coast guard station in Waukegan. 7 he local club would furnish the build-- ing and the boat and man the craft. He learned, however, tnat such a plan would not be permitted unless government maintained coast guard crews man the station. > Need of the location ef such a station here in view of the grear in-- crease in interest in boating was cited by Mr. Talcott in. bis confer-- ence with Congressman Chinblom. The number of small launches and yachts have increased greatly here while the activities of the Johnson Motor company in boating and the establishment of Wauzegan as a goal or'at least a leg in most of the power boat and yacht races held by the varlous clubs in Chicago en-- bances the need for greater protec-- tion for boatmen here. Signais Warn Boatmen It is also pointed out that if :1 coast guard station had been in op eration here the exprritence suffered by Nels Jensen and his wife and ' Tcther Emmett who were adrift on ake Michigan for four days after their small boat was disabled in a sterm never would have happened. FJtorm ~signals recelived by coast ruard stations would have deterred the Jensens in making a trip into the lake knowing that they were taking their life in their hands. At | the same time if a boat is caught 'in a storm coast guardsmen go to their. rescue immediately offsetting 'the possibility of their being blown many miles out into the lake. Many rescues of boatment by private owners of small craft have been recorded her during the past several years. Passage of the bill providing for the locetion of the coast guard sta-- tion--+in Waukegan will fill a need that has been recognized for many years by local boatmen,. There is no comst guard station on the lake between Evanston and Kenoshe. May Await Next Session Whether, or not, the measure wiX be passed at the present session of congress #s a conjecture. This is a special session and it is expected that it will be devoted almost ex-- clusively to farm and flood reliet measures. Were it not for the fact thet some investigation must be made into the need of the station here, the bill might be included with others pro-- viding for appropriations and put. through congress with minimum ef-- fort and time. The fate of the meas-- ure rests largely in. the decision of of the house committee as to It« merits and its wpassage by congress will be merely a matter of form. Have Site for Station The government possesses a tract 'of land that will be more than suf-- tion. The tract -- which is located ficient for the erection of such a sta-- along the sea wall on the east side of the inner harbor and adjoins the site of the new waterworks on ,the south has dimensions of 100 by 400 feet. This tract of land was reteined by the government, when it sold the waterworks site to the city, under the belief that it would some day be used as the site for either a coast guard station or a government ware house for storage 'of tools or bouys.

Motorists who make it a practice | to turn their cars around at street | corners or in the middle of the block ' any place in the "loop" or who make ; left hand turns a't Washington and | Genesee streets, or who fail to | strictly adhere to all parking ordi-, nances in the city, will be arrested | and face a stiff fine according to the ' orders issued today by Commission-- er Wilson L Gee. l WILL TAG AUTOMOBILES Commissioner Gee will have a con-- ference Thursday afternoon with offi-- cials of the --North Shore Line rela-- tive to t he ban on left turns at Washington and | Genesee --streets, but necessity for a solution to the trafic problem makes the outcome of the conference a foregone conclu-- sion and while Commissioner Gee has granted the North Shore Line the courtesy of a hearing, the no left turn order is certain to go into ef-- fect on Friday. The order will mean that express trains on the North Shore Line, one of the worst of Waukegan's traffic problems, will have to turn east on Washington street, then cross Gen-- esee street to proceed west to the terminal at Washington and Utica streets. x North Shore Line officials have pointed out that the turn right will be an ijnconvenience to the street car company, Commissioner Gee points out that the express trains at the city's busiest corner have been an inconvenience since they first started making the business section their terminal. The ban on "U" turns is aimed | primarily at taxt drivers although | there are other motorists who turn around at street Cdorner in the busi-- ness district at any time. ln the future drivers must go around the block to turn around down town. ! The parking situation is not yet; in a condition for control. The prob-- lem is such that expert advice will be necessary although some of the first steps will be to ban parking on narrow streets. The block of county street between Grand avenue and Clayton stréet may become a No parking zone because when street cars are moving on the tracks, with a car prked at the curb, there is not room for an auto to get between the parked auto And the #reet car.
