Reforming Our Prisons
Inmates to Be Made Self-Supporting in New
S1,3O0,OOO Institution.
BY ADOLPH LEWISaHN
President, National Committee Ol
Prisons and Prison Labor.

New York. Jan. 3.-The first step
has been taken in a great prison move
ment by the establishment of CLASH
fication institution at Sing Sing.
The movement. guided by the Ma.
tiOnal Committee on Prisons and Prison
Labor, is based on the fact that pro-
ductive employment in prisons u neces-
sary if prisons are to make progress to-
wards sound conditions.
Productive employment is necessary {:
First, to train the prisoner so that he
may be equipped to support himself
wheIr he is released; second, to enable
him to earn wages while in prison in
order that he can support himself and
those dependent upon him.
This will make prisons self-support-
ing and relieve law-abiding citizens of
heavy taxation imposed TO maintain
abIe-boded, mentally sound law break
ers.
The method devised to sort out the
human material is that every person
convicted of crime. after conviction and
before sentence. shall be remanded TO a
clearing house for thorough examina-
ton.
Release upon expiration of sentence
must be changed to release when fit to
return to society.
New York state is making definite
progress towards the adoption of this
new system. The classification insti-
tuition, erected at Sing Sing Mt cost
of S1.300000, will be ready for opera
ton this winter. Prisoners will be sent
there Immediately after sentence, for as
yet no provision has been made TO re-
mand them after conviction and before
Sentence.
Prisoners examined will be assigned
scientifically to the institutions within

The opening number OF the prog
ram was history of the Poiida!

The public in general may not know
that "Polida" was taken from three
Indian names, PotIatch, Latah and
Idaho. This was cleverly written
and presented by the president OF
the club, Mrs. r. S. Chambers
The next number was delightful

Ruth Hall had been asked to give a
review of one of the new novels and
chose, Their Childrens Children"
and IN few minutes sketched the
story so clearly that those who had
read it pronounced it good, while
those who had not felt that they had
the story so completely that it would
not require further reading.

SAYS AMERICA
IS NOT PERFECT
GERMAN CRITIC THINKS GER
MAN MORALS AS G0OD-WO-.
MEN TOO ACTIVE

Cologne.-(A. P)-German morals
are just as good as American morals,
but the Americans are more success
full in concealing their lapses, ac-
cording to DR.. Paul Rohrbach, who
recently completed a tour of America
and is contributing a series of arti-
cles to the Cologne Gazette on his
impressions of the new world. DR..
Rohrback says the impression which
is general in Germany is quite er-
roneous, as the American morality
is only on the surface, and that when
one digs down he finds things as
black as in Europe.
DR.. Rohrbach says American cities
do not permit any large sections to
be given entirely over to the social
evil and to dubious amusements of
various sorts, such as are common
now in all European capitals, and
especially in Berlin, in consequence
of widespread distress and general
decline in public morals.
Co-education does not seem to have
been as successful in America as
had been hoped for, according to DR..
Rohrbach, who says American edu-
Gators told him the automobile is a
machine designed to destroy morals
DR.. Rohrbach was startled by read
ing typical American novels in
which the state of morals among the
American middle class is unveiled,
such as "Main Street, "Babbit" and
Upton Sinclair's "Book of Life" But
he does not believe these books give
a fair picture of the average Ameri-
can
The high coloring of American
women and their frankness with
which they produce their vanity box
in public and renew their complexion
amuNed DIR. Rohrbach, but he found
that women were not so much paint
ed in circles where music and the
higher things of life are given more
consideration. He found that women
lead in public affairs, as we'll as in
the family affairs, but heard a num-
ber of American men complain about
the amount of attention paid to
women.
DR.. Rohrbach thinks American
women have too strong an influence in
politics and says they are "apt to
to propaganda more readily
han men" This is the reason, in his
opinion, why French propaganda has
so much success with the American
public. However, Dr. Rohrbach
ound many sympathetic elements in
American character, especially in
hat of the women, and he thinks the
lverage American is good-hearted
