Murder rates rise in United States in early 20th century review
A Newark statistician cites more than a thousand murders in 1982 and a rising rate over nine decades, from eight per 100000 in 1900 to about 11 in recent years. Memphis recorded the highest city rate at 54 per 100000 in 1931 and 1932, with higher rates in the South Central states and lower in New England. London and Canada show far lower rates, attributed to harsher punishment. The piece also notes a restored Columbus room in Segovia's Alcazar, with exact period furnishings and throne replicas reflecting Ferdinand and Isabella’s era.
