crease in the value of products con-

farm gardens also aided in swelling
the 1887 total. A few crops returned
less last year than in 1895. The more
important crops showing decreases
were cotton and cOttOnSeed potatoes,
corn, barley, peanuts, and sugar beets.
The percent increase in income
from livestock and livestock products
resulted from the larger income from
cattle and calves, sheep and lambs,
chickens and eggs, milk, and wool and
mohair. Increases from these items
of livestock production more than off
set the smaller income from hogs,
horses and mules
The largest increase in gross farm
income and Government payments for
the year went to farmers in Arizona,
Idaho, and Texas. Arizona farmers in
1887 received a total gross income 20

the increase was IS percent, and in

Few Jails In
State Given
u. S.. Approval

Raleigh, Sept. NORTH Carolina's
jail system falls far under Federal
standards for the safe-keeping of pri-
soners, with only 80 jails in the 100
counties being approved by the Fed
eral Bureau of Prisons, while the I'M
approved units still house thousands
of North Carolina citizens each year.
"Many cities maintain jails in adj
dition to the counties" said DR.. j.
Wallace Nygard director of the di-
vision of institutions and corrections
of the State Board of Charities and
Public Welfare, after making study
last month of Jail conditions, land
as a general thing, conditions in the
city jails are worse than those in the
county units.
There are too many jails in the
state" he said, because the counties
are not taking advantage of the leg
islative provision allowing two or
more adjacent units to maintain dis
trict jails.
"Counties with small financial re-
sources could provide socially salts
factory institutions in district jails
with a great saving of money to the
taxpayers of the cooperating counties.
"Seventy-eight thousand commit
tails, many of them repeating offend
ers, were made in North Carolina
jails in 1887, and at any stated time
during the year one could lind some
1000 persons confined.
"About 80 percent of the jail popu-
lation was serving sentence. while the
%stsio1 Or
or being held as witnesses. Sixty-five
percent of women confined We're serv-
ing sentence, although they comprised
only eleven percent of the total Jail
population.
despite the fact that there is a
statute requiring medical examination
of all prisoners within 48 hours after
incarceration, about half the jailors in
North Carolina call in physician on
ly on complaint of illness from pri-
Goner.
Under the present practice syphili-
tics, insane, tubercular, feeble-mind-
ed juveniles accidental offenders and
vicious criminals often are herded to-
gether, although the recently con-
structed units have made other pro-
visions
Under the law now, plans for new
jails must be approved by the state |
fire marshal, the sanitary engineering
division OF the Board of Health, and
by the Board of Charities and Pub
lie Welfare.
rive separate apartments must be
provloed with accessible toilet and
bath, adequate air, light and heat, ex-
erclse space, and quarters for an at
tendant to be on duty at all times.
"A separate juvenile section in the
jail does not meet the requirements
as ruled by the attorney general call
ing for segregation of children from
adult prisoners.
TOO many children are being con-
fined in jails and there should ha |
more cooperation between the local
welfare departments and Juvenile |
court OFFICIALS in finding dispositionv
other than jail detention for children,

"A WRONG HALF RIGHTED = = TOTS STILL GO HUNGRY

NKoRE than four years have passed since the first wall
WI Of stubborn opposition to the feeding of hungry
children in the District was raised.
Falacy of that opposition has been demonstrated
peatedy through the years which the school lunch pro-
gram has functoned despite handicaps of insufficient
finances uncoordinated planning and bureaucratic red
tape.
President Roosevelt recognized the value Of the school
lunch program this week when he approved WPA project
which will insure nutritious MONDAY meals for school
children who need them 12 months of the year.
How times have changed since the Washington Herald,
in the fall of 1892 pointed out that thousands of Washing
tons school children undernourshed and suggested
that program for providing them with hot lunches be
set up
Such program would be extracurricular the Herald
was told would be unfair the parents their children
The Washington times., 1938-07-08

When the Herald established fund of $4,000 to inaugu
rate the school lunch program in the winter of 193 all of
these arguments collapsed under the weight of their
falacy.
Now everyone agrees that it is public responsibility
to feed the school children But unfortunately old strands
Of bureaucratic red tape still entanged in the project
Latest ruling that the lunches may not be given to tiny
tots the Fairgrounds this because they won't
be eligible to enter school and thus under the heading
"necesstous school children" until this fall
Obviously it is not the intention of the President Congress
or Harry Hopkins to snatch bread away from hungry chill
dren merely because they tiny
Unfortunately voteless District citizens do nothing
about this tragic situation We take what the bureau
Gratis choose to give and hope that Congress will find
time to pay attention to affairs But don't
