IMPROVEMENT NEEDED
IN THE CONVICT system
Prison Commission Hopes to
See Steps Taken

Atlanta, May 21.-The Prison Asso-
citation of Georgia is hoping to see the
legislature this year take definite
steps toward the improvement of pris-
on conditions in this state
The attitude of the prison associa-
ton toward the present system, how
ever, is neither radical nor extreme
To begin with, the association does
not disapprove of working convicts on
the road; it simply disapproves of the
manner and conditions under which
conyicts are worked on the road now
1t believes that here are things IN
the present system which ought to be
improved both from a humanitarian
and an economic standpoint, thereby
saving needless misery to the con
victs, and at the same time making
them more effective workers.
The association is attacking the
system, but it is not attacking any in.
dividuals connected with its manage
ment. 1t is charged that the Georgia
penal system is immoral, because i
gives no thought to the future vel
fare of the convict, and that it is ex-
travagant, because the state. in dele
eating to the counties the duty OF
employing the convicts at road build
ing, is suffering useless expenditure
of public money without receiving ad-
equate returns. 1t is charged further
that the present system does not pro-
tect society, because the average con-
yict goes away from the changing
worse than when he went in, with d
distaste for honest labor and his evil
tendencies accumulated.
The association is endorsing several
measures, which will put the situation
squarely up to the incoming legisla-
ture. and it is hoped that committee
will be appointed by the body to look
into the question and frame conser-
yative but effective remedies Tho
prison association will suggest to the
Legislature the advisability of having
a more centalized convict system
Cruelty and brutality on the part Of
convict guards will be cited i'm spe-
cific instances, but it is the general
condition and not the individual man
who will be blamed The association
is not trying to do away with Geor-
gia's prison system. It is trying 10
improve it. 1t is welcome suggestions
from Legislators, prison officials and
others who are interested in the ques-
ton.

NEXT MOVE IS
UP TO JAPAN
Interest Shifted From Wash
iDgtOn TO Toxic

Washington, D. c., May 21.-Inter-
est in negotiations between the Unit
ed States and Japan over the Califor-
MIA land legislation has shifted from
Washington to Toxic The American
government, having delivered its reply
to the Japanese protest, is awaiting
the next step of Japan and the situa
ton was not even mentioned at to-
days cabinet meeting.
In official circles it is regarded as
significant of the desire of the ad-
nlinistration to convince the Japanese
government of it's purpose to do eV'
erything possible to maintain the best
of relations that American Charge
Bailly-B Blanchard has called upon the
foreign minister at Toxic to assure
him of the determination of the Unit
ed States to find friendly and salts
factory solution of the issue. Secre-
tnry Bryan already has verbally given
such assurances to Viscount Chinda.
1t is believed here that the visit to
California of the Japanese statesmen
Ebara and Hatori, representing both of
the great political parties of Japan
will be of benefit as they will be able
to enIighten their people at home as to
conditions in California
Meanwhile, resting secure in the be
lief that nothing more can be done
nv them until the next word is had
from Japan, the president and Score
tarv Bryan apparently have discharg-
ed their minds from the considera-
ton of the subject.
It is expected the forthcoming re-
ioinder to Secetary Bryan will be
strongly augumentative and calculated
to result in the conduct of the future
negotiations on a strictly legal basis
AS it is understood that the state
department is looking to the Japanese
government or some japanese citizen
to test the new law by recourse TO
the United States courts, it may be
significant of the drawing of another
Issue that the japanese are believed
to be reluctant to begin such a move
ruent.
In his protest of May 8, to the state
department, the Japanese ambassador
is understood to have made it per
fectly clear that Japan, hndlng II ln
possible to deal directly with the state
of California was relying directly up
on the federal government to insure
what he believes to be fair treatmen
for it's subjects Probably that con
tention will be extended to cover thu
legal test of the California land law
though the ordinary procedure in suci
cases would be to allow a Japanes'
subject, threatened with escheatmen
of his lands, to begin action by appli
cation for an injunction.
Meanwhile, it is expected that sew
= eral days will elapse before the Jap
anese rejoinder is received, in view
= of the fact that ten days were takel
for the preparation and delivery 0
