Major Crimes
On Increase
A 14.4 per cent increase in ma
jor crimes during the first six
months of 1956 as compared with
a similar period last year was an
nounced today by the Department
of Justice on the basis of the Uni
for Crime Reports compiled by
the FBI.
J. Edgar Hoover, Director of
the FBI. stated that an estimated
1,291,120 major crimes occurred
from January to June, 1956 This
was 162,770 more than the 1,120,
350 for the same period in 1955.
The last increase comparable to
the present 14.4 per cent occurred
during the first six months of
1946.
If the current trend continues
for the remainder of this year,
1956 will be the fifth consecutive
year in which more than 2,000,000
major crimes will have been com
mitted and the first year in which
the crime total will reach the two
and-one-half-million mark.
The 1956 trend is about the same
in urban and rural areas. From
January to June of this year, ur
ban crime increased 14.0 per cent,
while rural crime rose 14.6 per
cent. The largest increase was
noted in auto theft which spiraleu
22.3 per cent nationally. Tiie only
major crime to reflect a national
decrease was robbery, which de
clined 1.1 per cent.
