JAIL SENTENCE;

Abolition of fines in the courts
of Illinois and the substitution OF
the Jail sentence in its place -
favored by the central Women's
Christian Temperance Union OF
this city, which met YESTERDAY AT.
ernoon at the Y. w. c. A. and will
meet with the executive commit
tee Of the county union to adopt
a resolution to this effect. the
resolution will be sent to the Il
linois legislators and action will be
asked.
The union yesterday discussed
fine and Jail systems and stricter
law enforcement Special empha-
sis was laid on the need of stricter
enforcement of the Eighteenth
amendment. To bootleggers the
fine is . simple matter and they re-
peat the violation again, the wo-
men said statistics on arrests and
penalties indicate. Figures show
that the fine method produces hab-
itual criminals whereas a Jail SEN
tence is dreaded by the law violat-
ors. A meeting Of the executives
of the county and local unions will
be held soon and decision whether
or not to draw up the resolution
will be reached at that time.
