Prison Reforms

While a group Of Texas legislators are touring The
country visiting prisons Of the various states Eeeking
a solution to the problem nj this state. President Hoo
yer is having his worries over the federal prison tit
uation.
Riots, fatal in each instance, at Leavenworth and
Atlanta, exposed a disgraceful condition at the peni-
tentiaries and aroused such a wave Of protest that 1t
is likely something will be done.
Overcrowded cells were blamed in both Instances
for the riots, each Of the prisons housing approximate
ly twice as many persons as they had been built for.
This was not news. The fact that too many prisoners
we're in each Institution long had been known and a
congressional COMMITTEES had filed q report recon-
mending steps TO be taken to relieve the congestion.
President Hoover has accepted this report In part
buthas overlooked a part Of the report which author
titles on prison practice consider Of first Importance.
The report. filed last January. urged that under
no circumstances should the existing federal peniten-
tiaries at Leavenworth, Atlanta and Mcneil Island
in Puget Sound, be enlarged to more
prisoners"
It is this part Of the report that President Hoover
has ignored. He suggests that Atlanta and Leayen-
worth prisons both be enlarged and that a new prison
be built. The committee would have avoided the ne
cessity Of charging the present prisons by building
two new ones.
The objection to charging the present prisons the
congressional committee points out, Is that prison
populatlon Is more easily controlled in smaller groups
and that with a large numpeI u piiSoH
easier to segregete the various types and give tnem
snecialized treatment suited 20 their needs.
President Hoover suggests an increase IN the mum
her Of probation officers to permit parole OF more
prisoners. This is in accord with best penoiogicai
practice. The parole can be used in such q manner as
not only t. strengthen the prisoners morale by riv-
ing him hope and an incentive to mend his ways ou'
also reduces cost Of prison maintenance. !.
At least the recent epidemic Of prison riots most
~ them with fatal consequences. will serve 70 iorce
some corrective measures. This being true ! " 70

Health and Right Living
BY ROYAL .. COPELANO, vi. ID.
Former Commissioner of Health

Pretty oon vacation time will be
out a memory. / trust 1t will be a
happy memory. But what perman-
ent value has 1t given you?
OF course. everybody has his own
idea OF what q vacation should be.
! am assuming that during ours you
had a lot Of exercise. You come
back with tanned skin and sparkling
eyes. If you have been exercising
q lot in the open air be sure to
keep up this practice. Try to keep
the tan by getting into the open
every day.
There Is quite a fad now Tor hav-
ing a tanned skin. There are so
many fads that don't appeal to me.
I am actually happy when one
which I can endorse comes along.
In my opinion. the stimulation the
skin has received from the increased
circulation OF the blood, is a good
thing. That is what the sun does
for you.
When you see a person with a
milk and water appearance. q pasty
complexion and white lips, you know
that the circulation Is poor. Ex-
pose that skin to regular doses Of
sunlight and 1t won't be long be-
fore there is q better tone in the
whole body.
The manufacturers are making
wonderful lights to supply ultra
violet rays to the body. These rays
give in a few moments what the
sun requires hours to accomplish.
II properly and temperately used,
I regard them as an excellent thing.
OF course the advice / am giving
today is not needed by out-of-door
workers. They have tanned skins
during the whole year. That Is one
reason why they do not feel the cold
as white and bloodless persons do.
You must have cord circulation to
enjoy crisp weather, such as Nature
will send us in a couple or months.
/ suppose scme Of my farmer
friends smile q bit over the sugges-
tons made about out-of-door eXer-
else. But they must bear in mind
that thousands upon thousands OF
the persons who read these articles
live in hall bedrooms. in crowded
tenements, some of them in rooms
where the sun never enters.
] wish it were possible TO give a
decent place TO live to everyone OF
Gods creatures. Since it isn't DOS
sible 70 have 81 oh a home, is no
reason TO give in to circumstances.
Health IS too important TO neglect,
