Some impressive figures have Just
been sent out from the ONCE OF Dis
trct Attorney Whitman, of New York
City, in report Of the work Of the
office issued by hts chief clerk. In the
last year, according to this document,
2,O68 unmarried men were convicted
in the courts of general sessions and
the criminal branch Of the supreme
court, while only 789 married men
were adjudged guilty in the same
courts. The records for women cul-
prits show one hundred unmarried to
sixty-six married convicts. Does mar
riage act as deterrent on criminal
inclinations?
& Over against these statistics, which
seem to be favorable to welded life,
place the fact that three times as many
married as unmarried men attempted
suicide IN 1912 and were tried for II.
Had marriage anything to do with
that? The mere raising Of the ques-
ton makes one uncomfortable
