BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Atlanta, Nov. 1.-The efforts OF
Thomas NJ. Osborne, Of New York,
who recently served a self imposed
sentence in the Auburn prison to learn
the physiological effect OF imprison- :
ment, today We're characterized as fU-.

he deserves credit for directing at
tention 10 prison problems. II says
that this Penitentiary Columbus may
have gained ideas about physical ex-
istence in a jail he did not get deeper
than the surface. The article points
out that Osborne was fortified by the
excellence of his motives and contem-
plation of the plaudits he would earn.
1t says a convict sneaking back into
the world with five dollars in his
pocket and of prison clothes has not
such comforts and a convict can't
mediate on his present heroism or
future renown. The article suggests
that the criminal laws would be bet
ter administered if judges and prose
cutors were required TO serve short
terms like Osborne. The paper re
fleets the ideas of the prisoners and
not officials.

DISCUSSED BUT

Washington. Nov. 1.-The senate
banking committee today reached a
snarl in the discussion OF the adninis-
tration currency bill and spent hours
in debating the capitalization and con-
troll Of the four regional banks proposed
to administer the new system. The
committee adjourned until Wednesday
without acting on the question.
Several committee members are said
to be unanimous that the report would
hinge on the question OF controlling
the regional banks. This may lie with
government or the member banks. The
committee rejected Senator Hitchcock's
proposal to capitalize the entire sys-
tenn at one hundred millions to be sold
TO the public The plan of O'Gorman
to capitalize each regional bank st ten
per cent of the national bank capital

capital, was also rejected. The COM
mittee then adjourned to Wednesday,

to vote.
