FRANCE is RESTORING

Especial Correspondence to The Journall
New York, Nov. France has

alton of her merchant marine. Ac-
curding to the Rapport Geperale
sur IIndustrie Franchise, which has
lust reached this country, the total
French merchant tonnage on De-
cember 81, 1919, as 2,400,896 tons,
or approximately the same tonnage
as previous to the war, about 342,-
497 tons being under the govern

added the tonnage,o Of the German
hips Professionally under French

ncutY allotted to the several ship

WOMEN MAGISTRATES
URGED FOR COURTS
HANDLING CHILDREN

Especial Correspondence TO The do'rnAl.)
Washington, Nov. 2.-WOmen
magistrates for courts dealing with
children's cases are advocated in a
report just issued by the British
Board of Education, according to
information received by the Chill
dren's Bureau of the u. S. Depart
ment of Labor.
Juvenile offenses against the law
are on the increase in England.
The Old methods of punishment by
whipping and Imprisonment have
failed. IN 1916 the number of
young persons sent to prison to-
tailed 2,S0O\ in 1913 it had in
creased to 900. OF all those who
were punished by detention, one
sixth were back in the court with
in a month. Whipping has proved
even more of Il failure, as one
fourth of the offenders reappearod
in court within a month.
The treatment Of juvenile Of
tenders in England has been great
~ improved since the passage Of
the Children's Act in 1908, but
many Of the magistrates have not
had a sympathetic understanding
of child life and they have not
been keen to avail themselves of
the many facilities for cOnsiderate
treatment placed at their disposal.
The principle Of rehabilitation was
recognized in the law, but the prac-
tice has been neglected.
The report recommends that
every Juvenile court, not only in
the cities but also in the rural dis
tricts, which has to deal with any
considerable number of offenders
should have Il childrcu's probation
officer His duty would be not
only to supervise cases himself but
to secure the cooperation of teach
crs, scout masters, officers of boys
and girls clubs, and other social
organizations so that every child in
his charge should he introduced to
one ar more Of those agencies
