CONFESSION MADE INTO A TALKIE.—With the use of the talkies as a means of recording confessions it, is thought that police methods will be changed and that we may yet see a rogues’ gallery of talking films brought into court at trials. The screening, in.court, of talking films will also disprove defence accusations of brutal third degree methods. This photograph shows a wagon-driver whose confession to 21 house robberies was made into a talkie by the Philadelphia police. In the group, right to left, are: Benz, lieutenant of detectives; the prisoner; Connelly, detective-inspector; Schofield, director; Mills, superintendent of police. The three men in the foreground are making the talkie.
