FRIENDS Of boy
FORGER SEEK
H|SRELEASE
Suspended Sentence Movement
Active in Behalf of Hayward
Youth in Prison Here.

An effort to gain the release from
prison of Paul H. VanDeusen, 10
years old, who several months ago
forged a postal savings certificate in
Atlanta, is being made by influential
citizens throughout the United States
who are active in the suspended SEN
tence movement
Tate, OF Atlanta, has received nearly
twenty petitions asking that Van
Deusen be given another chance.
VanDeusen several months ago
lived in Atlanta with Roy Rubenstien.
The two boys look much alike. Ru-
benstien had postal savings account
at the local nostofflce. On two diff
ferent occasions VanDeusen took the
account book Of Rubenstien 10 the
postohice and drew a total OF SIS in
Rubenstien's name.
Stole Money in Los Angeles.
Soon afterward VanDeusen went to
Los Angeles. where he got a position
with the Western Union Telegraph
Company as telegrapher. In some
manner he appropriated S55 Of the
company's money and was arrested.
VanDeusen pleaded guilty and was
sentenced to three years. The judge
taking into consideration the age Of
the prison. suspended sentence and
paroled VanDeusen back to his moth
er, Mrs. Susan VanDeusen, Of James
town, n. Y. After he had been pa
rolled in Los Angeles he was rearres.-
ed on the charge of forging a postal
savings certificate in Atlanta, and ar
rangements were made to bring Van
Deusen to Atlanta for trial.
Those interested in his case are try
ing to get the boy released to go back
to his mother under the order of the
Los Angeles court, and the various
petitions received by the District At
torney disclose pathetic facts regard
ing the circumstances Of the boys
parents.
Family Is in Want.
His father. Judd VanDeusen. has
been in an insane asylum for fourteen
years. Mrs. VanDeusen works in a
laundry for Sc a week. She has three
other boys and two girls. At present
the family is in want, and 1t Is
claimed tnat one BOY, Haul, IN an
endeavor to help his family was led
into crime.
Since the arrest Of the boy on the
Atlanta charge restitution for the
amount stolen has been made.
Il is thought the United States At
torney General will authorize the re-
lease Of VanDeusen and give him an
other chance, allowing the boy to re-
turn to his mother. VanDeusen, how
ever. will be indicted here and this
Indictment will be held over him. In
case he fails to do right, the indict-
ment will be pressed.
