§ 23. Lord FERMOYasked the Home Secretary whether he will consider the advisability of issuing to the public through the police a warning against carelessness which facilitates crime, such as the carrying of quantities of jewellery in cases, large sums of money in handbags, insufficient precautions when removing considerable sums wherewith to pay wages, and inadequate protection of shop-window fronts at night?
§ Sir H. SAMUELThe publicity which is constantly given in the Press to crimes such as those which the Noble Lord has in mind should prove an incentive to greater carefulness, but I will give consideration to his suggestion, in consultation with the Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis.
