now, Unfortunately for the taxpayer, the
chief person 10 profit from the prison la
borer whose work has been sold is the
contractor who secures It. II is stated that
IL costs the City OF New Haven and its
taxpayers as much to support the prison
ers In its Jail as the Detroit House Of Cor
rection turns into the treasury Of that city.
New Haven, according to DR.. Within. re-
ceives six cents a day for its prison labor
ers, and seeks to get work out of the
convict by physical punishment" while
"the Detroit institution makes a profit by
paying its convicts from IS TO Is cents a
day as wages. The New Haven institution
forgets the convict can have wife and
children depending upon him, while the
Detroit institution provides for their every
need Wethersfed, Conn, also is blessed
with the contract system. All the men
work on two contracts, though few Of the
men are being trained by these contracts
10 earn their livelihood after leaving prison.
All wardens and many contractors agree
that the industries should be so scattered
that the men should be trained into the
lines they are TO follow after leaving
prison. The authorities at Wethersfeld
have centred upon two industries-boots
and shirts-to the detrment of the con-
victs. but TO the supposed financial ad-
vantage of the institution. History dis
proves this contention. From 1928 for fifty
years, when a large number of occupations
were carried on, the institution showed a
net profit OF several thousand dollars TO
the state When these industries were sus-
pended and shoes alone made the industry
the loss kept increasing every year till
they introduced a second industry, which
partly overcame the loss. but the institu-
ton has never gone back TO its basis Of
educational work for the prisoner and
profit for the institution"
More overalls and shirts than any other
articles are made in prisons for outside
contractors. One contracting firm controls
the output Of fifteen prisons. In Rhode
Island this firm pays 30 cents a dozen for
making the shirts, and the contract Is
practically perpetual so far as the con-
tractor is concerned, for at five years inter-
walls he has the option OF continuing or re-
hnquishing IT, This same firm has part OF
the labor at Wethersfield prison. In Della
ware the prisoners are employed under con-
tract at making clothing for the public.
Nearly all Of the product is sold In New
York. II Is estimated that New York City

a dinner in Waco one OF his international
alliance stories.
"A New York heiress," he said, was en-
gagged to a Spanish grandee.

London and they were walking In the

But how will you stop them? he
asked

my fortune over to the missionaries at

The grandee settled his shining hat
more firmly on the back Of his head and
set off at a great pace in the direction OF
Hyde Park Corner.

things in prison. He thinks Of II not only
as q trade school, but a laboratory in
which certain problems can be worked out.
, He points out that the present trade
schools in this country could gain by adopt
ing the principle OF productive work.
The new Industrial penology,' said Mr..

lem OF the trade school, which has not been
solved. II Is going TO solve some OF the
problems of the industrial world For IN
stance, the question OF efficiency and IA
tigue What Is the result OF the application
OF the principles OF efficiency? How far do
they fatigue a man? How much work may
a man be expected to perform without In
fury TO himself? We can obtain excellent
information regarding fatigue, for here you
have a group OF men under such close oo-
servation that every effect OF work and oil
diet can be noted. The men are isolated
from influences which might affect their
physical condition and under the care OF
officials who can supervise their living. the
question Of efficiency and fatigue Is one OF
those which must be worked out for the
Leneft of free organized labor. and 1t can
not be done 20 well elsewhere.
by public efficiency mean the elimna-
ton Of the middlemen through the state or
municipality supplying its own needs.
This form of public efficiency will be greatly
enhanced by the demand for standardiza-
ton OF commodities and prices made i'm
perative by the need of the prison Indus
tries to supply the order market. Accurate
accounting the introduction OF budgets
and methods OF testing the actual value OF

Dear slr:-Referring to state
ment published In The Herald OF De-
cember IS. In which Il was said shat
the union plumbers had no trouble In
the shops OF Beeman and Aver and
tbs Whitney Company, J will be glad
II you will permit me TO say that the
two shops mentioned In the foregoing
are unfair to our organization, Both
employ nom union men. Our union
mas endeavored IN every way 20 bring
about an equitable and peaceable
agreement with these shops These
shops. however, are opposed to organ
ized labor and object tc union men.
Il was necessary for uB to Ioruid our
men 20 accept employment at unfair
shops. Il is now impossible Tor a
union plumber 10 work for either
shop and retain his membership as
union man.
Referring to the statement OF Wal
ter j Leekley, 4 will say that he Is
no longer q member OF our uaion.
I4eekiey was ordered out of the Whit
ney company. He failed 10 comply
and thereby forfeited his relations and
membership in our organization. TN
III he pays a heavy fine and squares
himself with the union be win not be
permitted to work In any fair shoP m
the country.
I wish to say IN closing that Albu-
querque local of the plumbers union
Is stlll In existence; that regular meet
ings are held on the iiyst and third
Tuesday evenings OF each month at
the union headquarters. extend an
Invitation to the officers OF any UNI
