TREND OF U. s. PRISON
 REFORM OUTLINED TO
 INTERNATIONAL BODY

LONDON, Aug, 13. [P)-The trend in American prison reform is toward individual attention for wrongdoers in courts and prisons, Dr. Amos w.. Butler of Indianapolis, Ind, declares in a paper prepared for the Interna- tional Prison Congress, in session here.
 After the custom of European as- sociations, the paper, translated into French and reprinted, is handed to a committee which will summarize it and submit it to the whole Con- gress as basis for discussion. MT. Butler is former secretary of the Indiana board of state charities.
 The same movement toward indi- vidual care and instruction which has been accepted by hospitals and schools is now manifest in the treat ment of prisoners, MT. Butler show ed, and courts and prison officials are considering wrongdoers individ- ually and prescribing thus for dis position of their cases instead of treating them by formula or in the mass. The movement, however, is gradual one, and it's general accep- tance as a policy will not immediate ly entail it's universal practice.
 Tracing the progress from congre- gation to individualization in prison work, Butler outlined the handling of prisoners from the time when Wm. Penn replaced harsh treatment in the Pennsylvania colony with more humane methods, substituting pris- on for the gallows, labor for bloody punishments and warehouses for the debauchery and idleness of the jail yard.
 The high points in American prog ress in dealing with criminals, he found, were established in Virginia and Kentucky in the late eighteenth century of the penitentiary system, with reduction of the crimes known as capital offenses and enactment by the Indiana legislature in 1860 of good time" law, enabling prisoners to shorten their sentences by good behavior and evidence of a desire to reform. He noted the founding in New York in 1876 of a reforma- tory, marking the beginning of the present reformatory system estab- lishment by Indiana in 1873 of the first separate prison for women! adoption by Massachusetts of the pro- bation system in 1878; and finally physical and mental examinations for prisoners, with hospitals for the criminal insane and clinics for the treatment of criminals with less marked mental incapacity.
 Summarizing the progress in crim- inal treatment, MT. Butler found the forward steps in America falling into eight divisions. Employment of more humane methods was followed by gradual grouping of prisoners in spe- cial institutions for juveniles, wom- en, young men who were first often. ders, the criminal insane, and defec- tive delinquents. Indeterminate or indefinite sentences were the next step forward, followed by the estab- hshment of juvenile courts and the inauguration of the probation sys- tenn, first for juveniles and then for adults. Physical and mental exam nations, first in juvenile courts, then in reformatories and prisons and fin ally in courts for adults brought the treatment of the criminal to higher plane, and finally routine mental ex-

Fourteen Points Guide
 To Successful Movies

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Aug. 13. [P) Thru a recently established system of selecting plots that conform to the covenant of II dramatic points, motion picture producers here now practically assure the success of a photoplay before ii is made Of thousands of films produced in the past many were failures from the standpoint of audiences.
 Irving Cummings, director, under whose direction several productions have been filmed through this new method, declares that in the future failures will be almost completely eliminated. In this manner more pie lures that appeal to the audiences will be turned out, he said.
 The photoplay when adjudged by this method should contain a majori- ty of the fourteen following dramatic ingredients: ambition, conflict, con- spiracy, devotion, eternal triangle, greed. intrigue, love, mother love, the quadrangle, retribution, reconcil- iation, sacrifice, feminine appeal.
