NEGLECT CAUSE

SAN FRANCISCO, July 11.-Of the

&c years Of age and over 300 are under
p years Of age.
Under the mana cement of James A.
Johnston, warden, San Quentin has be
come noted as prison institution OF the
advanced type.
The International News Service asked
Warden Johnston to write his views upon
crime and its cure lie has written the
following article:
BY JAMES A. JOHNSTON.
Warden of san Quentin Prison. California.
The crime problem IS boy problem.
The finest prison conceivable is but q
monument to neglected youth.
We are dealing with social failures,
trying to salvage as much as possible of
the Wreckage. While the scientists are
searching for the cure-all for crime and
criminals let us give some common sense
attention to the question in the home,
the church, the school and the play
ground and in our daily associations.
Prevention is much easier than cure,
less difficult, less costly. 1t is about
time we turned our attention to proven
tive measures such as medical and dental
inspection in the schools education that
really fits for citizenship; vocational
training; measures that viii prevent IN
employment war on the habit foTmiu &
drugs and excessive use Of alcohol; strict
regulation and control of the sale Of
firearms; recognition of the fact that
youth is the time OF lawlessness, that
criminal tendencies assert themselves
early in life and should be checked early
by proper training in the home, the
school and the church.
The policy that prevails in the man
agement of our prisons in the State to
day is one of strict discipline and train
ing, but without harshness or cruelty.
The prison directors and the warden be
Iieve they can contribute most to the
lessening of crime by managing our Pris-
ons in such a manner that they may pos
sibly wean man from crime.
We regard it as our bounden duty 10
take the man received by commitment
and strive in every way possible from
the day Of his entrance TO train him for
better citizenship to the time when he
will again have liberty.
We endeavor to supplant sickness with
health. ignorance with knolcdge indo-
lence with industry and despair with
hope and give humane consideration 10
aliN in an effort to fit as many as pos
sible for complete rehabilitation and re-
turn them 90 society moral assets in
stead Of costly liabilities.

Says Schoolgirls
Being Overtaught

LONDON. Julp 11.-Are girls being
overtaught?
The statement made by Miss Major
In her presidential address at the Man
chester headmistresses' conference has
aroused d stream of criticism.
81 do not think schoolgirls at present
are overworked," said Lady Yoxall, wife
of Sir James Yoxau, the ardent educa-
ZIONIST, who is herself keenly interested
In education. THE only tendency to
danger that l can see lies In the case Of
brilliantly clever girls who are liable to
overwork. The physical exercise and
play that girls get should obviate all
danger OF overstrain."
frank criticism came from a pupil
at the Haberdashers' Girls School, Acton,
one of about 500 students.
There is no doubt" she said. that

are expected to get through when we are
