WASHINGTON-Out of Presi-
" dent Roosevelt's thoughtful
deliberations during his "vaca-
ion" on the high seas may
ZONE the first plan for a per-
nanent program which will treat
unemployment and relief as a
ong-time problem.
His most intimate advisers
have urged such a plan upon him

nations dropped by Roosevelt in
iicate he is thinking in that di-
.ection.
officials have told Roosevelt
hey will need around S750,0O0,-
900 to carry the federal works
program through the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1887. WPA chiefs
privately expect to run out of
funds by February, which means
Congress must act soon after il
.onvenes in January. '"'
For the next fiscal year, esti-
mates run up to S2,500,0O0, 900,
but .Roosevelt's budget estimates
are likely to be we'll below that.
1t should be realized that al
though the congressional relief
appropriation for 1867 was
only 81 ,425, 100000, the full works
program for this fiscal year will
cost more than $4,000, 000, 900
when you count use of unexpend-
ed balances and anticipated def
cheney appropriations.
Men close to the president point
out that If he can cut that by a
billion he will have made real
showing.

PEAK PRAISES
PROBATION
SYSTEM

Condemning the practice OF
confining first offenders in the
same institution with hardened
criminals. Col. w. L. Peak, super
intendent Of the District Reforma-
tory. urged the more frequent ap-
plication of the probation system
in an address last night at the
American Red Cross headquar-
ters.
Urges Probation
Leading a discussion on whether
or not first offenders should be
segregated from hardened crimi-
mails in the District penal sys-
tenn, Colonel Peak declared:
practically all first offend
ers are made worse by being
confined in a penitentiary with
hardened criminals, and few
first offenders are reformed or
made better by confinement in
an institution set apart for
first offenders.
"The probation system Is
sound and should be applied
more frequently"
Colonel Peak quoted figures to
show there are approximately 900
men who should be segregated
from the other 526 more hard
ened criminals now incarcerated
in the reformatory.
Were Not Hardened
Colonel Peak classified the 493
men who had served time in
warehouses and the So men who
had served time in training
schools as first offenders, be-
cause, he said, they represent a
type that has not been hardened
by confinement in a penitentiary.
Other speakers on the program,
which was sponsored by the Pub
lie Welfare Association of the Dis
trict, were Judge M. M. Doyle,
chairman Of the penal commit
tee Of the Board of Public Wei
fare; Capt. M. M. Barnard, super.
intendent of District penal inSti-
tutionS; Major E. w. Brown,
superintendent of police; Vernon
W. West, assistant corporation
counsel, and Ray L. Huff, chair
man of the Council of Social
Agencies correction committee.
All five speakers agreed with
Colonel Peak that first offenders
should be segregated from the
hardened criminals.

tvs representation in the Montana state
legislature, during the time that the
legislature is in session, the board Of
county commissioners of the county so
affected has power to appoint someone

ton in that county to elect someone to
will the vacancy. That is information

HELENA, March 27.-When a repre-
sentative in the state legislature dies,
resigns the office, or leaves the state
during an assembly the board Of county
commissioners in the county he repre-
scented may appoint a successor, but
should any of these acts occur while the

|ernor is required to proclaim special
election for the naming of another rep
resentative
