London (U.P.)—The case of the heirloom thumb turned up today just as Scotland Yard was celebrating the 50th anniversary of its fingerprint bureau.
The yard itself never talks, but its alumni sometimes do. And the case of the heirloom thumb was disclosed by a former chief inspector, C.R.Hewitt.
Hewitt also mentioned that within its barnal building a few steps from Downing street the yard now has more than 1,000,000 fingerprints —about 100,000 of which are one-finger prints only. One of its experts invented the Battley system—named after him—by which a
Washington, D.C.—(U.P.)The public health service has announced that its scientists have developed a relatively simple method to make hormones from tomato plant leaves.
Dr. Leonard M. Scheele, surgeongeneral, predicted that eventually the process will most likely be used to produce cortisone, the drug that relieves arthritis.
Hormones Can Be Taken From Tomato Plant Leaves
Scheele said only one crucial step is needed to transform the hormones into cortisone. If the synthesis can be made, his announcement said the price of cortisone will be slashed.
Hormones are used in treatment of various women's ailments, including cancer of the breast.
criminal can be identified by a single print in the files.
Since the Battlefly system reduces filing space by 50 per cent, all new prints are being taken this way. The word gets just over 100,000 new fingerprints every year in its role as guardian of the master file of Europe's criminals. Police all over the continent check with it whenever they are trying to match a print with a criminal.
Before he mentioned the heirloom thumb, Hewitt dwelt on the antiquity of fingerprinting as though he feared a Russian attempt to claim another first.
The Romans used a palm print in a trial in the first century, he said. The Chinese used finger print signatures in 618 A.D., and a Persian historian named Rashid reported in 1303 A.D. "that no two individuals have fingers precisely allike."

government service, when pensioned off, used to sign; for their payments with a thumb print.
One day a re-examination of records showed that payments were still being made on the basis of the thumb print to a laborer who would have to have been at least 120 years old by that time.
Officials journeyed down to his village to view the remarkable old man in person. But they found he was dead. In fact, he had been dead for 30 years. And among the heirlooms bequeathed to his grateful family was his mummified, but still quite serviceable, thumb.
