WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-With
an elaborate program Of prison re-
form and building Enacted upon for
year, congress today faced a warn
ing from Attorney-Ge Mitchell
and Sanford Bates, superintendent
Of federal prisons, that continued
illness and overcrowding would re-
suit in more fatal riots like those
at Leavenworth, Canon City, Dan
nemora and Auburn.
Both officials asked for prompt
action in providing a parole Sys-

better living quarters. The ideal

modate no more than 1000 men,

as many as $500 inmates, or more
than twice the normal capacity.

The house has several bills for
new prisons before it, but no def
mite action has been taken on the
report of a special prison committee
which found conditions to be "deS-

struction of new penitentiaries, hos
pitfalls, local concentration stations

lishment of a parole system.
Mitchell asked authorization to
establish shops in federal prisons.

had a talk last week with man
who has lived in Washington for
about 90 years and he stated en-
phaticallv that he believes conditions
as regards speakeasies and bootleg
ging are worse now than they were
in 1922. He also said he thought 1t
is worse even as to drinking and
liquor abuses than it was 10 years
ago.
There is no question in my mind
that conditions are far better as re-
CARDS the saloons down town. They
are not selling whisky or real beer
and many of the old places are gone.
But it appears that the speakeasN
and hootlegging all over is a mighty
bad situation right nov.
incidentally l was told today that
in Richmond, Va, conditions are
far better than in Washington.
Whisky is scarce and very high in
price and the law which provides

information on bOotlegCers works to
