RESOLVE IN FAVOR
OF THE PENAL FARM
Nicholson Resolution Adopt
ed-Grand Juries Criti-
cised by Wissler.

The State Conference on Charities
and Correction went on record on
Monday evening in session in Indiana
state penal farm to supplant the
county jails now in use. On Monday
and Tuesday several prominent social
workers from all parts of the state APP
peared before the conference in behalf
of the penal farm At the Monday ev
ening session the resolution introduce
ed by Timothy Nicholson favoring
work farms, met with the unanimous
approval of the meeting.
In compliance with the specifications
of the resolution President Weatherly,
of the conference, appointed commit
tee of five persons to investigate the
feasibility of the proposition with a
and House of Representatives of In
diana. Since the state legislature has
gone so far as to appoint this commit
tee to investigate the situation, and
Governor Marshall has openly declar
ed himself in favor of the scheme, it
is now believed that only a short time
will elapse before penal farms can be
established
Timothy Nicholson, of Richmond,
ence Mr. Nicholson is one of the most
conspicuous of the visitors at the con-
ference, as he was a member of the
first Board of State Charities estab-
lished in Indiana. He was also a dele
gate to the conference on charities
and correction for nineteen years, hav-
ing retired only in the last few years
B. F. Wissler, of Cambridge City,
criticized the way in which grand jul
ries conduct their investigations of
county poor farms. He designated the
jury inspections as farces that do more
harm than good. He told the delegates
to act, the grand jury merely makes
pretense at investigating the situation,
and turns in the report that the man.
ayers of the poor institution are dis
charging their duties well, and that
the place is in excellent condition.
Wissler asserted that, as this desul-
tory examination quenched temporar-
lily the fire in the public mind by put
ting forward the belief that there was
no need for improvement at the time,
people allowed the poor farms to re-
main stationary instead of advancing.
Charles w. Jordan, of Richmond,
was one of the principal speakers at
the conference on Tuesday morning.
Mr.. Jordan had for his subject, work
houses" but he limited his speech to
a few special phases of the workhouse
situation. W. Albert O'Hara, of Mum
Gle, led in the discussion which follow
ed the address.
John L. Rupe on Monday told the
conference delegates that the county
Jail system in vogue at present is es-
sentially wrong and should be abol-
ished He asserted that the county Jail
is relic of the primitive ages, having
been in practice for centuries. Mr.
Rupe believed that it has long ago
been outgrown by our high grade of
civilization, but he said so far no one
had ever started an effort to abolish it,
