GENERAL PROBE
Of PRISONS
SEEN
Parole Board shake-up Also
Expected As Result Of
Atlanta Scandal

Attorney General Stones state.
sHAnt that he intends to learn
sn@re about re0oral PRISONS" and
that there is all opportunity Tor
Improvement in the conduct of the
federal parole board" was taken
BY officials today to indicate that
. general investigation Of these
branches of the Department of
Justice has already been launched.
The big shakeup at the Atlanta
Federal prison in which the
warden, an assistant warden and
purchasing agent have already lost
their official heads does not neces-
sarily indicate that conditions are
unsatisfactory in other federal
prisons, the attorney general said.
However, he indicated that he
would look into affairs of the
prison system with q view to MAX
ing improvements il he found
changes necessary.
.VOtaw's Status Uncertain.
Stones references to the parole
BOARD, which has charge Of the
hberating Of thousands of federal
prisoners annually, pointed to
changes in either the personnel or
modus operandi OF the board.
Doctor Heber III. Votaw, super
intendent of prisons, is ex-officio
President OF the parole board. He
came into the department under
former Attorney General Harry M.
Daugherty and at the time Of
Daugherty'S retirement it was
commonly reported that Votaw
would resign.
While Stones statement relating
70 the parole board and his shake
up in the Atlanta prison gave rise
to the report that Votaw's resigna.
ton would be requested the at
torney general was silent on this
point.
Forner Attorney General Daugh.
erty, just prior to his resignation,
said that he had formulated a new
set OF regulations for the paroIing
OF FEDERAL prisoners. The new at.
torney general, however, did not
make public these regulations, saw.
ing that he was studying this situa-
ton. 1t was intimated that he
might have a. parole system Of his
own.
Narcotics Struggled.
It was understood today that T,
3! White, inspector of the bureau
OF Investigation and former Texas
ranger, who was installed as act
ing warden of Atlanta prison, has
already submitted a preliminary re-
port on the situation to Attorney
General Stone.
General incompetence in admin
istration Of prison affairs, the pres
eI1ce OF narcotics smuggling, and
petty graft In the purchase Of sup
plies are understood to be the main
difficulties at Atlanta prison.
Attorney General Stone said that
no connection has been established
between the trouble at Atlanta and
the Weehawken, N. j., liquor
scandal

CHILDREN "SUN STARVED"
BY HEAVY LONDON FOES

LONDON, Dec. 17,So starved
Of sunlight are children in the
darker sections of London that the
health authorities have had to re.
sort to artificial sunlight to keep
them healthy.
Doctor F. w. Alexander, medical
officer at Poplar, in a recent report
to the local health committee on
the use of the long-flame arc lamp,
explained that the children were
starved of sunlight in the winter
by the smolse-laden air, which al
most entirely rid the ultraviolet
rays of their healing properties.
The use of the arc lamp for
Tight treatment" of the children,
he said, had caused great improve

the immediate provision of plant

running boards.
The radiators are high and set low in the frames and con-
vx curved just below the filler cap. The design Is strikingly

parture from imitation to be entirely distinctive.
The Five New Duplex Bodies
"a ~esy type Of car originated B., ~Ss4d<bakr % take
the place Of die Open carl
so ENTIRELY NEW and so different from any
other body ever made before that a new name had to
be created-the DUPLEX.
The upper structure is shaped in pressed steel and
covered with the finest waterproof fabric. The steel
construction permits the use of another radical
Studebaker creation. the new roller enclosing cur
tains. There is the permanent beauty and durability
OF the steel top plus the instant convenience of the
roller curtains.
Thus Studebaker engineers have solved the open
closed car problem.
The buyer who wants the airiness and practical
convenience of the open car and who also wants the
comfort, protection and beauty of the closed car can
now get both in one car and at the price of an open
car.
One moment the new Studebaker Duplex is a
beautiful open cara touch of the hand to the over
tapping roller curtains and it is a snug weather-tight
closed car.
