'Jails Are Only Crime Factories"
Says Famous Police Chief

BERKELEY, Cal, Jan. 1l-Jails are

1t is only folly TO try to cure

fender by putting him in prison.
These are a few OF the conclusions
reached by Chief OF Police August
Vollmer. OF Berkeley.

is a poor plan to pen a man convict
ed OF some minor offense up in dirty
hole where under the natural course
OF events he can only become worse.
To incarcerate a drunkard With the
hope OF curing him is ridiculous. The
confinement. with no occupation, only
increases his craving for drink, and
his physical condition, instead OF i'm
proving, becomes worse.

CONDENSED MILK
UNDERSTANDABLE
ViolatOrs of Federal Regulation
Easily Find Experts To Sus-
tain Them
THEIR CLAIM is THAT
STANDARD is TOO HIGH
Department of Agriculture Try
ing To Find Way To Cor
rect the Evil

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE de
partment of agriculture Is taking for
ward steps in the matter of food and
drug purity that are believed TO be
much worth while. In a short time
Secretary Houston is expected TO APP
prove a new definition and standard
for condensed, evaporated or concen.
trated milk. A committee that has
been working on the subject has
made a recommendation which, when
adopted, will provide a standard be-
low which no manufacturer may go
except upon peril of having his pro-
duct shut out of the market because
IL lacks either milk fat more COM
monty known as butter fat or solids,
OF which casein is the chief.
The new standard provides for rs
per cent of fat and 25.5 per cent OF
solids without any tolerance of any
kind. There is a standard now which
fixes the fat content at rs per cent
and the solids at 265 per cent, but IL
is said that little attention Is paid
to H.
The existing standard is of so little
value because the food and dairy
commissioners OF many states believe
the percentage of solids Is too high.
Accordingly, the manufacturer who
chooses to disregard IL is able TO get
as much expert testimony for az
against him. That means that most
prosecutions would fail and therefore
they might as well not be undertaken.
The result of this disagreement
among experts is that the public has
cen buying a good deal OF condensed
or evaporated milk from which some
part had been taken Tor the manufac-

them as a little nest-egg when they
are liberated.
The greatest criminologists in the
world all agree that the present jail
system is an abomination. Ii does
not help mankind. II only serves TO

doors.

boot would be the biggest thing any
city could do"
Chief Vollmer is one OF the most
popular police chiefs in California
IL not on the whole Pacific coast. He
is fine, robust man under middle
age. with piercing blue eyes and the
merriest kind OF smile, which often
shows even when he is trying to be
severe. Unlike many police chiefs, he

ture OF butter or cheese: that is. II
has been buying condensed skinned
milk at prices that should have
brought rich unskimmed milk
The condensed milk question Is not
so much one OF health as OF ordinary
honesty. although in cases in which
the condensed milk must be used in
feeding children the question OF prop
er nOurishment is of more Importance
than that OF commercial honesty
The new standard is the production
of a committee from the Association
of Official Agricultural Chemists, the
Association OF State and National
Food and Dairy Officials, and the
bureau of chemistry of the depart
ment of agriculture OF which DR.. Carl
Alsberg and Or j. S. Abbott, CHEZ OF
the cooperative work part OF the bu-
reau. are leading figures. Dr. Abbott
was appointed TO bring about cooper
alton in the enforcement Of food con-
troll statutes.
The committee says that so per cent
of the condensed milk manufacturers
of the United States have accepted the
new definition and standard and that
the members of the two associations
and the bureau OF chemistry are
bound by the work of the committee,
so that hereafter the manufacturer
who insists upon putting a sub-stand-
ard article on the market will be in
opposition 10 all the officials who
might be called as expert witnesses.
During the month subcommittee
are TO hold informal hearings, proba-
bly, in Chicago and New York, for the
collection of data that will enable the
committee TO agree upon standards
for gluten flour and fermented milk
products, particularly cheese, butter
milk. bulgarzoOm and other CONNER
cial products used In accordance with
the Metchnikoff theory of prolonging
life by drinking milk fermented by
means OF particular species OF germs.
Bulgarzoom is the fermented milk
produced by the Introduction into the
rather than allowing the native Tactic
acid germ do the work.
Every manufacturer now proceeds
as he pleases Ninety-fve per cent
of the buttermilk sold over the dairy
lunch counter, particularly in large
cities, is not buttermilk at all. but
fermented skinned milk made TO re-
semble buttermilk by the employment
OF chemicals or fermenting germs.
There are various definitions OF
cheese" but so long as the manufac-
turer does not lie too brazenly he can
get by with inferior articles There
is full cream cheese and still other
full cream cheese. There are also
dozens OF varieties OF filed cheese
Gluten -four is often prescribed by
doctors for inyalids; but there is no
fully recognized standard Anything

regard 70 bread The sale Sf' bread
that contains so small a quantity OF
gluten as to be negligible probably

a standard for gluten -four the per

what II purports TO be can be reduced
since much of IL is shipped in inter
