 Jail Farm Movement
Formally Organized Campaign to Bring About AbOIi.
 tiOn-Farm Would Lessen Crime, Advocates Say

A campaign calling for the aboli- ton of the county jail as 6 penal institution has been inaugurated by the State Committee on Connecticut Jail Farm and is expected to extend throughout Connecticut. The com- mittee has members in all of the larger cities and the aid of churches of all faiths, fraternal organizations and chambers of commerce will be solicited in the fight to create as a substitution for the county jail, a state jail farm.
 The committee calls on all in- dividuals interested in the move- ment to contact candidates for sem ator and representative and exact from them pledge to support nec- essary legislation.
 In 8 statement by the committee received to-day by Waterburians in- terested in the move, the county jails are said to cost the people over $300,000, and in spite of this ex- penditure to be in such poor condi- tion that many must be rebuilt or at least reconditioned and modern ized extensively. The statement reads:
 Beneficial Results
 "The establishment of @ jail farm would result in lessened crime throughout the state, in rebuilding American citizenship through scien- tif1c diagnosis and treatment of pris- oners, and in considerable economic saving to the state as whole.
 Tt is distinctly not 8 proposal to pamper or coddle jail prisoners but rather to put them to work, thus

TONE RESPONSIBLE
 FOR LABOR LAWS
Amendments of Benefits to Laboring Classes Cited
 in U. s. Bulletin

Legislation protecting laborers in Connecticut factories has made stupendous advancement since 1883 under the administration of State Labor Commissioner Joseph M. Tone. Data proving this fact is in- cluded in the March issue of the labor information bulletin issued by the U. s. department of labor.
 Connecticut, according to the survey, has more factory workers per square mile and per thousand population than any other state ex- cept Rhode Island. In spite of this highly industrialized position, how ever, Connecticut's labor laws up until 1883 had not kept pace with the developments in industry. Since then, under the guidance of Com missioner Tone, they have made great strides.
 Important Bills
 Mention is made of three impor- tant labor bills that have been en- acted recently in this state. They are the minimum wage act, the in- dustrial homework act and the measure accepting the federal Wag- ner-Peyser law providing 8 system of state-federal employment offices.
 Six other labor acts adopted in the 1885 session of the legislature are also mentioned. They were all sponsored by Commissioner Tone and include the following: prohibit ing the employment of children un- der 16 in factories, merchantile and other establishments; forbidding employment of minors under 18 in occupations deemed hazardous and injurious to health; limiting the hours of employment for women and minors under IS in factories and mechanical plants to 8 hours per day and 48 hours per week; pro- hibiting women and minors under 18 from working in factories, mer- cantile establishments and so forth after 10 p. m. and before 6 a. m.; forbidding giving out or receiving of materials for homework except by license granted by the labor com- missioner after proof that such work is necessary and customary in industry; and creating a board of mediation and arbitration in the state labor department.

Iaving money for the state and making their period of detention Q source of improvement to them per- sonally rather than as too often at present Q schooling in crime.
 Tt would not abolish the present county jails but they would be left to care for those awaiting trial as at present and for those sentenced to 90 days or less. '"The Federal gov- ernment inspection of jails in Con- necticut ranked them in 1895 as fol- lows: 70 to 79 per cent, 1; 60 to 69 per cent, 3; 50 to 69 per cent, {; under 50 per cent, 2.
 Detention House
 Part of the present annual ex- penSe for county jails is unneces- Sary because of the duplication in each county of jail facilities. The present jails would continue if the Connecticut Jail Farm was estab- lished, but they would be used only for those awaiting trial and trans portation for material witnesses and for those committed for less than 30 days.
 Every sound argument urges the establishment of central jail farm. Every citizen in the state who cares for the honor and welfare of Con- necticut should see to 1t that his legislator votes for the jail farm bill. It has already received the endorse ment of many leading organizations in the state, including the State Grange, the State Federation of La- bor, service, and fraternal clubs, churches, and chambers of com- merce."

Lorraine Sisters Featured With Radio Band at
 Hamilton Park

Then Frank and Milt Britton come to Hamilton park tomorrow night, they will bring with them one of the finest girl trios of radio and stage fame. The girls referred to are the Lorrain Sisters, known to millions of radio fans as 'The Three Blondes" who for the past year have been broadcasting their harmonies over the National Broad casting networks from the Chicago studios.
 These charming maids of melody, recently, at a national radio show, were voted the most beautiful grill trio of radioland. The Britton Brothers discovered the Lorraine Sisters recently when appearing at the Chicago theater. The girls were under contract to the broadcasting station and not free to accept of- fers but as soon as their legal ties were ended they contacted the Brit tons and were immediately signed to 8 long term contract.
 Leta, Eileen and Marion Lorraine are experts in the art of harmoniz- ing rhythms in most distinctive manner. They are gorgeous to look at and besides being beautiful they have the charm of friendliness that attracts the audiences into a spirit of congeniality.
 They are the Brittons good will emmisaries to welcome their audi ences and If you want to be greet ed by these three beautiful maidens come on out to the park tomorrow night and get reception that you will long remember.

After WPA Chiefs Scalp

Comedian was first asked to quit, as result of the Brann- Farley un- derstanding. He refused, 50 his pay recently was stopped.

 Harry Hopkins to date Is stand ing Squarely behind Abrahamson.
 Farley's men fin Washington are trying to make Moran reconsider, but he refuses to sit on the same platform or run on the same ticket with Brann.
 Moran's chief distinction in Washington, aside from the impor- tant part he took in the fight for the holding company act, is for the leading role he played in defeat of the Bland-Copeland ship subsidy bill of last year.
