Backward Pupils
Linked With Crime.
Lewisohn Asserts
President of Prison Sur
vey Committee Submits
Report Showing Peril in
Retardation i'm Schools

Dizziness in school and crime are
definitely, related in the opinion Of
Adolph Lewisohn, president of the
Prison Survey Committee, who made
public yesterday statistics bearing out
his contention. Mr.. Lewisohn's state
ment follows, in part:
STATISTICS go to prove that If boy
is retarded behind his normal grade
in school his chances of getting into
prison are eight to one against his
chances if not retarded. This does
not prove that retardation is the cause
Of crime, but it does establish with
certainty that the facors which con-
tribute to retardation also contribute
to getting into prison.
''ln this fact lies the lesson for
parents, teachers, educators, school
boards and society. Every means avail
able should be brought to bear upon
the removal Of the causes of retarda-
tion of backward pupils; for mental
defectiveness and crime have an in
disputable relationship.
For the purpose of studying the
connection between backwardness in
school and crime, 1896 inmates of
examined. 1t was learned that only
1873 per cent of the number had left
school in the grade they should have
been in had they entered school at
six or seven years of age and advanced
one grade each year. The number 'ac-
celerated'; that is, in advance OF their
normal grade, was only 1.9 per cent
All the remainder Of the 1895 prison.
crs were Retarded; 75.6 per cent were
retarded by one year or more; 57.3 per
cert We're retarded by two years or
more; 42.9 per cent were retarded by
three years or more, and SO on down
the line until 1t was found that 09
per cent were retarded ten years or
more.
"Of $50 men entering the prison
school at Auburn during one year,
81 had never been in school before,
81 had attended school one year or
less, 81 from one to two years, So from
two to three years, AZ from three to
four years, 81 from four to five years
and 62 from FIVE to six years. Only
115 had been in school six years or
more. Of the total number 1870 had
never before been in a school teaching
English, .153 were unable to read or
write English when entering prison
and 118 were absolutely illiterate.
"These men are imprisoned for the
violation of laws, the meaning of which
they do not know and the text Of
which they cannot read. If the state
owed these men an education when
they were free members of society and
did not meet its obligation it certainly
owes it to them in their more unfor-
tunate condition.
"On the other hand, If they were in
different before commitment to OBJ
tanning what are the merest tools Of
expression, they must be required to
or1N hn-
fore being released.
ut seems hardly possible to believe
that the state imprisons an illiterate
for term Of years and then allows
that man to be paroled without refer
ence to his ability to read and write
and understand the simplest English
expressions, and vet such is q fact"

The Bolshcviki, according to Pre-

Wrangel Aboard French Warship
PARIS, Nov. 14.-General Wrangel

vices The evacuation Is continuing,
but there is inadequate shipping for

Members Of General Wrange's gov

night, although the Balshevik: were
reported to. be occupying. Simferopol
and capturing many prisoners and
large quantities Of materials.
Office says the Bolsheviki did not
storm the Perekop lines, but by an
enveloping movement Of their left
wing invaded the Crimea. They
crossed over the ice-frozen Putrid Sea
and attacked the main body Of Gen
eral Wrange's troops, which then
were still holding the Perekop de-
fences, from the rear.
General w angel has decided not to
attempt guerrilla warfare in the Cri-
mea, the information adds, owing to
the overwhelming Bolsheviki forces
converging on the peninsula, which are
variously estimated at between 10000
and 100000 men.

LONDON, Nov. 14.-The latest note
sent by M: Tchitcherin. the Russian
Eolshevik Foreign Minister. to Lord
Curzon. the British Foreign Minister,
complains, according to The Daily Her

asks for immediate resumption and the
swift conclusion Of the negotiations.
The Herald adds that behind the firm

unless something is done the Russian

ment is supported by Premier Lloyd

Churchill and that whichever way the
decision goes there will be some resig-
nations from the Ministry.

From The Tri6unes European Bureau
LONDON, Nov. .4.--The Evening
Telegram tonight, urging concentrated ID
action on the part of the Allies against
the Soviet armies, says:
"The danger in Eastern Europe, what
ever disappointment it involves, teaches
us that Bolshevism can only be ended
by force"
j. l.. Garvin, in The Sunday Observer,
writes:
"This is the utter end of General
Wrangel. French recognition led his
generals to their doom. This hapless
leader has foi;owed in the steps of
Denikine, Kolchak and others. Our
business now and hereafter is to recog-
nize an effective government in Russia,
whatever it may be. The Foreign Office
cannot smash the Bolshevik system.
Trade is far more likely to transform
it into u more moderate regime"
The article concludes with an en-
phatic plea for resumption Of trade
relations.

MILAN, Nov. 14.--Gabriele d'Annun-
zio is creating trouble in Fiume, hav-
ing caused his legionafies to occupy
pears that more legionaries embarked
from Fume when the flotilla sailed,
with the view Of occupying more
islands OIL the Dalmatian coast, prob
ably also Sebenco and Castua.
D'Annunzio, after learning the de-
tails Of the Rapallo conference, called
a meeting Of the Fiume authorities
criticizing the Italian governments
action, especially because Tersetto and
Susak have passed into the Juko-Slavs'
possession, thus depriving Fiume Of
control over Its water and light serv-
ices.
The meeting ended by declining to ac-
cept the interference of all parties in
matters which Fiume, as an independ-
ent state, reserved to itself. The sit
uation is not considered serious by the
Italian government. but merely as the
last spark Of the dying nationalist agi-
tation.
RAPALLO, Italy, Nov. "A. Belief
that the settlement Of the Adriatic is
sue reached by Italy and JugQ -Slavia
would be received with satisfaction
abroad was expressed by Premier Clio
litti to The Associated Press Friday
"The understanding eliminates one
of the most acute causes ct friction
and consolidatcs European peace" said
Signor Giolitti. Italio-Jugo-S -Slav au-
tagonsm is folly, as the two countries $
need each other and have the greatest
interest to live, trade and work in
peace.
Serbia, Croatia and Jugo- -Slavia find
III Italy the best and most profitable
market Tor their agricultural products
and timber, while Italy can export to
those countries all of her industrial
goods, also using Serbia. as a bridge
for her commerce throughout the Bal
kan States."
