Stealing by male and female thieves working In the guise of house servants has reached such tremendous proportions In Germany,' and especially in Berlin, that a special department has been organized in police headquarters with a special staff of detectives to combat that form of crime. Criminal Commissioner Gentist. who is in charge of this department, declared that thefts by alleged "house servants now aggregated lens of millions of marks aside from the hundreds of reports or occasional pilfering of legitimate servants. Commissioner Gennst attributes this new specialtv In crime to the law put through under pressure of the Socialists, doing away with the requirements of the police that all house servants must have a "service book issued by the police and no household could employ anvone without such book. It contained the law relating to employers and servants, the antecedents of the servant and the name end place where employed and ivhy dismissed or voluntarily lelL The repeal of this law. together with the scarcity of servants, has favored the specialty of thieves engaging themselves as house servants in order to ascertain where . money and valuables are kept.

' ROME. Mav 21 (By the Associated Press ) An attempt is being made here to curb outrageous exactions of profiteers establishing arbitral commissions by which have tower to compel traders to refund exorbitant profit and to impose unusual forma of punishment. One method of bringing profiteers to term is to first compel them to restore their profits and then dleplav for on month in their shops an official account of their gouging methods and tho punishment Imposed upon them. These steps are the result of publlo exasperation over the excessive profits taken bv retailers. The Italian government first tried other methods to shame the Roman shopkeepers into charging only a fair amt honest profit. One of these efforts was to compel the retailers to publish the price they asked for every article, but it wa of no avail Now the people are resorting to the new provincial arbitral commission, which seems llkelv to achieve results. On of the cases recently handled bv the commission was that of two chemists who had charged from 473 to 900 per cent profit One of the chemists had charged a purchaser $7 90 for a tuba of serum which had coat antldlphtheretic him 90 cents wholesale The arbitral commission compelled him to restore to th buver all except 100 per cent profit and th druggist was compelled to hang In his shop s record of the case against him.
