PuniShmpntS.
FEARS WRONG IMPRESSION

Commissioner John II. Delaney of the
State Department of Efficiency and Econ
oiay commenting yesterday on the reports
OF Investigations made at Bedford Re
formatory by Charles Il. Jackson, chief
examiner of his department, and by DIR.
Rudolph y. Diedling of the State Prison
Commission, called attention TO the fact
that the sense of proportion IL often lost
in making up such reports. He declared
that the failure to give proper weight
to the instances OF severity cited by
critics OF prison and reform methods
leaves a wrong impression and leads the
unthinkng to conclusions that are not
at all justified.
He said that in the report on conditions
at Bedford Mr.. jackson cites instances
of severe punishment inflicted upon girls
who became unmanageable. cases of soil
tary confinement in unfurnished rooms
and of Handwriting girls to their beds.
Now said he. There are such cases
and they are not denied by those in
charge of the Institutions. but the general
reader forgets that where there are a
dozen girls for whom severe treatment
Is absolutely necessary there are hum
dreds, perhaps thousands, who never re-
quire such treatment.
I'm other words. the inhiction Of the
punishments complained of IL exceptional.
Hundreds of girls never experienced the
handcum or solitary confinement because
in their cases no extraordinary discipline
is necessary When taken in proportion
To the whole number OF inmates. those
who are severely dealt with are few in
decd.

but not so well managed as IL might be.
