COUNTY JAIL
IS CONDEMNED
Prof. Robinson Says Kent In
StitutiOn Is Worst One
He Ever Saw
FAVOR STATE CARE
OF ALL PRISONERS

DR.. Louis Robinson. professor OF
economics at swarthmore College
delivered an able address in the
Friends School auditorium last even
ing. on jail conditions, taking for
his general theme. "The County
Jail" DR.. Robinson said that the
Kent county Jail at Dover. is a cess
pool" and the "flthiest jail he had
ever set foot in" Or. Robinson
based these statements upon recent
investigation he made Of the Jail. nc
called the institution one OF the
worst he had ever seen and declared
that a Jail should be- filter and not
a cesspool. Speaking along this line,
Professor Robinson declared that
enough persons emerge from the
peual institutions OF the country
yearly to populate the state OF Della
ware. aud he declared that instead
of being "hlters' where the criminals
could be cieansed mentally. morally
and physically most of the county
iails we're cesspools where tho con-
ditlons were made worse
Dr. Robinson described the Dover
jail as one Of these, and went on 10
elaborate on the bad features OF the
institution at Dover. He said the
sanitary conditions at the Delaware
iail were OF the worst; that the pris-
oners we're required 20 get their
water every twenty-four hours from
a bucket: that the walls secreted
vermin between layers of white
wash; that the cells were dirty TO
the extreme. that there we're but
three beds in the Jail; that the ma
iority Of the prisoners slept on
ticks. which the speaker said could
not be dirtier of they were hitched
to wagon and pulled through the
streets: that there was no seciusion
for the women prisoners. and that
the "abominable" fee system was en-
ployed at the Jail.
AS a means of cleaning up" the

the paying of the sheriff decent
salary. q library; a board OF ply
sicians that would pass upon suit

prisoners: separating of persons
awaiting trial from convicted pris-
oners: a general cleaning up of the
iail. including the installation OF
sanitary appliances.
Even then. Dr. Robinson said. the
Jail would simply be q dormitory.
He advocated the total abolition
of the county jail system and the
care Of prisoners in state institu-
tions where work for the inmates is
supplied.
"There are but fourteen prisoners
in the Dover Jail: If could not

cumstances I would resign
