Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. Bennett, James O'Donnell. Chicago Crime and the Chicago Crime Commission, written for the Chicago Tribune.January 31, 1932. 8.5"x4", 8pp. Original self wrappers. VG copy. Provenance: gift of Henry Field to the Library of Congress (1942). (Field was grandson to Marshall Field and was an anthropol…ogist associated with the Field Museum.) VG copy. O'Donnell had a rather nice touch for the sardonic, and sums up the successes of the Crime Commission on the first page so: "THE Crime commission is the most annoying body in Chicago. And its mainspring, "a certain Mr. Loesch," as Judge Fisher describes him, is a perpetual calendar of disturbing days. Testimony on these points is abundant. Lazy judges, tip-taking bailifs, bootlegging policemen, bail bond fixers, laggard state's attorneys and professional criminals all agree that the Crime commission substantially reduces the joy of life and impedes the flow of easy money to an extent beyond calculation. But, annoyed though they frequently are, the culprits do not half comprehend the perfection to which the commission has brought its specialty of being annoying.".

[++] This is the preface to the work it is pretty turgid and a little difficult to read, but the main point the author is trying to get across is that his coloring system will make it easier to see and so to understand the condition of neighborhoods. From the preface: "Exhaustive study and research through publications on municipal and regional planning surveys has convinced the author that an attempt of re-classification and re-vitalization of outstanding facts and theories responsible for the materialization of evolutionary concepts for guidance and control of municipal improvements to meet the needed changes of our time in which we live, has become necessary. The Master Comptroller and Evaluator in Technocolor for Municipalities is the Author's answer to such an attempt. [It]. is destined to perform very important roles in the establishment of a practical system of Control and appraisal of municipal, private and public lands and improvements of all types and classes all over the world. It will furnish a basis for study of problems of land utilization and visualization of structure and out lay of city blocks and thoroughfares through imagery of portraiture and visionary perspective of many forecasted changes for the promotion of health, beauty and cultural perspective of any economic and political wel1-being of communities, and it will help to determine the value of resources and wealth of a community environment. [It] will play specifically distinctive roles in the promotion and development of commerce and industry, which is most essential for the procurement of social and economic security of the communities of a municipality." "Technocolor" by the way is the correct spelling of the term used by Mr. Ben.
