Retribution punishment is no Ion
ger inflicted in civilized commune
ties. This does not imply that So
ciety looks more indulgently upon
crime than it used to. 1t simply
means that society now realizes that
punishment should be reformatory
in it's character and therefore the
penalty imposed has for its object
the reclamation of the offender. OF
course, society has to be protected
against dangerous persons. but the
number of such persons will de-
crease under the modern system.

ishment but hardened the criminal

w. C. Van D.


1t is hard for some men who have
spent more or less time in Jail to re-
alize just what is the attitude of the
community towards them. While
it is undoubtedly true that the ten
dency now is to give him chance
to make good, and even to assist him
in SO doing, there yet remains in the
minds of large number of people
a feeling of resentment against the
man who has broken their laws, and
and who they feel may do so again
If given the opportunity. There is
certainly feeling that jails do not
always reform men and the fact that
some men after serving a SEN
tence for comparatively light Of
fence. commit graver offenses on
their release, accentuates this feel
ing. With this in mind a commun-
lty can hardly be blamed for look
ing with more or less suspicion on
the ex-convicts. Every man who,
after leaving Jail makes good and
regains the respect of the community
in which he lives, helps to remove
this feeling of distrust and in that
way and in that way only can he be
of some use to his former associates.
Every community has the right
of self protection, and this right the
community sub-consciously exercis-
es when it asks that the ex-convict
show some positive signs of reform
alton before it takes him to it's bosom
and extends to him the glad hand of
fellowship.
Most men do make good and
believe that more would do so if
they were given a period of probat-
ionary liberty before final release.
The parole system does this to
certain extent, and the fact is that
most men who serve out the latter
part Of their sentence on parole
actually do make good. / think if
every prisoner whose sentence calls
for a definite term of years was
compelled, or allowed, / should say
to serve the last six months of his
sentence outside (under surveillance
of course) that the bulk of them
would become useful citizens. The
greatest difficulty with the present
system is right at the front gate.
Most prisoners after serving a term
have lost not only their hold on
the business world but also their
money and friends, and in many
cases, their families also. / know
of my own personal experience that
it is so, as when | myself left this
/ neither knew where to
GO or who to turn to-. (Not that |
want to whine about it-God knows!
| NEARLY state conditions as / be-
lieve them to be-. A helping hand
at the gate; even few words OF en-
couragement would go long way
towards emptying the jails of Sec
ond timers and in that way remove
the feeling Of distrust that some
communities still undoubtedly have
against the ex-convict.
