FBI Reports WASHINGTON - (U.P.) - In the last 10 minutes, 43 major crimes were committed in the United States. That is the present crime rate, the FBI, said today. During each day of the first six months of this year, 34 persons were slain, 255 were assaulted, 51 were raped, and 607 cars were stolen. Every day there were 3,714 larcenies, 167 robberies, and 1,405 burglaries. There was a total of 1,128,350 major crimes in the six-month period—an average of one every 13.9 seconds. the federal law enforcement agency said in its semiannual bulletin that "the year 1955 may show a long overdue break in the upward crime trend of the past seven years," but added that if the present crime rate continues, 1955 will be the fourth straight year in which more than 2 million major crimes are committed. Every 4.2 minutes during the first six months of 1955 there was a crime of murder, manslaughter, rape or murderous assault. There was one major crime committed for each 144 persons in the United States. The only encouraging sign reported by the FBI was that the crime rate in 1955 was slightly lower-seven-tenths of one per cent-the first drop since 1948. Frost Explains A total of 6,240 persons were slain in this period. Cambridge, Mass., (U.P.)—Poet Robert Frost, explaining why he quit Dartmouth College after a couple of months in the class of 1895, says: "I ran away because I was more interested in education than anybody at the college at that time."
