THE CONVICT Is HUMAN

Society now recognizes the human
equation in the treatment of its wrong
doers. Popular opinion is going to-
ward the reformation of the convict,
not his confinement Prisoners are
being made into law-abiding citizens
instead of enemies to society.
Thomas Mott Osborne, with his Sing
Sing Mutual Welfare League, has made
the convict feel that he is trusted,
that society is befriending him in
stead of infiicting upon him unbear-
able BRUTAL punishment, punishment
which adds fire to the already burn
ing hatred of the convict.
Here is what James Dale, New
York ex-convict, told the people of
New York City, February IA, at a
meeting held by the National Com
mittee on Prisons:
"In Sing Sing 4 heard of Osborne
/ asked, Who is Osborne? 1 was
curious. But from the day Osborne
came to Sing Sing he has been my
friend. He never gave me money. But
he did more than all the institutions
had done, more than the great state
of New York had been able to do-he
taught me to do right, to be square
And he practices what he breaches"
Compare this statement with that of
Missouri ex-convict in Kansas City
last month who described the Mis-
souri, penitentiary as a "hell hole"
and stated that the convicts would
rather burn it down and die in the
flames than endure the treatment
which they are receiving.
Politics is responsible for the de-
plorable prison conditions existing
in many states. Members of the
prison boards, appointed by the COVER
nor, ard their henchmen make prisons
a source of revenue, subjecting con-
victs to inhuman treatment AMI max
ing them worse than wild beasts.
Missouri and every state must take
the control of corrective institutions
out of the hands of politicians and
place them in the hands Of Grim
inologists, experienced in this work.
Every state must have its Thomas
Mott Osborne before criminals will
be benefited by confinement in peni-
tentiaries.
Welfare workers seek national legis-
lation for prison reform. but this is
not necessary IL the people of each
state will centralize the prison con-
troll. The Missouri prison is to be
investigated. 1t should be investigat-
ed, and so ought the prison system
of every state when century-old Gus
toms exist Prisons must be made
training schools for citizens and not
HELL holes" to degenerate men into
beasts Of prey.

He instructed in the Palmer system. Although the school auth critics here desired to retain him, he could not remain longer.
 MT. Huff is ore of 100 experts en- p1oyed in instructing in the Palmer system.
 Supt Slawson visited Newington and West Haven and looked over the work Of both men before deciding to rec ommend them to the board. It is understood that the superintendent was clothed with absolute authority { Q engage whom he pleased if in his judgment, they were competent end willing to fill the positions open. T'he confirmation of their appoint 1nents tonight by the board of edu- cation will be merely a matter of form.
 Col Elmer H. Ravens, president Of tlae board was very reticent to talk Cn appointments or what action might ke taken by the board tonight. He admitted, however, that Supt. Slawson Rad been given full authority to select tale teaching corps for the new High school and said that such authority Lad always been given the former su- perintendent, Charles w. Deane.
 The board was to have met last night but because of the absence of several members the meeting was post poned until tonight.
