those under sentence.
The following recommendations are
submitted for the consideration of
the officials In charge of the Jail:
Every prisoner received at the Jail,
whether under sentence or awaiting
trial, should be required to change
his clothes for a prison uniform. He
should be given a Wasserman test.
Positive cases should be given Wig
orous antisyphilitic treatments. Daily
greatly reduce the possibility of di-
sease. Balanced rations and careful
attention to ventilation nave no doubt
contributed to the general health of
the Jail population this year.
A room. separate from the cell
block. should be provided for the
convenience of relatives and friends
who desire to interview prisoners.
Visitors should not De permitted to
visit prisoners in their cells.
Unemployment has O demoralzing
effect on the habits of men. Priso-
ners who are forced to be idle during
the term Of their sentence after
ward take the habits Of prison days
into the months of freedom. The
way to voluntary shiftlessness is
prePdrcu ny Involuntary lOlenSSS.
The unrestrained communication and
idleness of prisoners should be elm
mated from the county Jail program.
A more satisfactory arrangement
might be made.
We would advise that sheets and
pillow slips be used.
This jail could easily be made in
to modern jail in every respect by
the installation of toilets in the
cells, thus doing away with the pres
en- unsanitary system.
A place should be provided where
