according to their industry to insure
protection for their families and their
own rehabilitation on release was rec
commended to the International Pris-
on Congress by the section on pre-
ventive means"
The resolution provoked heated dis
cussion in the congress, not because
the principle of caring for prisoners
families was opposed, but because it
was not so worded as to fit adoption
in several countries, including the
United States, where prisoners are
unable, under existing law, to earn
any money.
The subject was referred back to
the section on motion of Mrs. Ella
Flagg Young of Chicago.
A resolution faVoring the provision
Of productive work for prisoners, in
GLIDING those in houses of detention
and county jails, was adopted by the
congress. 1t was accommodated by
thethe section on prison administra-
tion,' which spent the morning in dis.

Taliferro as United States senator,
died few second after being placed
on the operating table of local hos

death was gall stones with complica-

probably be the greatest single under

which, by the way, was his only de-
feat in politics. In June, of this year,
he defeated James P. Taliaferro at the
Democratic primaries for United

and was regarded as the strongest po-
litical factor in the state.
He is good example of, the self
made man of America. Early in the
seventies he lost his father and moth

a tugboat cook and roustabout He
worked in this capacity, practically il

turn employed as seaman, pilot and
captain of small craft on the st. Johns

terest in the famous filibustering tug,
Three Friends. AS commander of the
craft he made four expeditions to
Cuba, once landing in the harbor OF
Havana despite the Spanish fleet.
