REDEMPTION OF WOMEN TO BE TRIED OUT Uncle Sam to Reserve Traditional Policy of Fifty Years. • ■WASHINGTON, March 10— Reversing his traditional penal policy of the last fifty years. Uncle Sam in the future will attempt to redeem from lives of crime all feminine offenders against the Federal statutes. Under an amendment to the statutes, passed by the Senate, future ■women pilsoners of the Government of all ages may be sent to State reformatories instead of Federal prisons in the discretion es the committing judge. This change in the law, advocated by many welfare societies, was accomplished whet Senators were told it was intended as a means es preventing feminine first offenders from becoming steeped in crime while serving out their sentences. DECIDE ON STATE REFORMATORIES. Supporters of the movement at first desired that the women offenders be sent to houses of refuge, but Senator Watuon i Democrat) of Georgia, so vigorously opposed the suggestion that this feature was eliminated from the measure. It was then decided that Uncle Sam should do his reforming at State reformatories, this feature being added to the amendment on motion of Senator Harris (Democrat) of Georgia.

Much, debate was occasioned in the Senate prior to adoption of the amecdment. It was pointed out that the Go* eminent for fifty years has absolutely rejected all attempts to change the penal code in this respect. OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN USEFUL OCCUPATION. The amendment, however, gained sufficient support to insure its passage when it was explained that at the State reformatories the convicted women would be given an opportunity to learn useful occupations and to “'beat back’’ from lives of crime. Senator Watson, in discussion of the bill, revealed that Uncle Sam has approximately TOO juvenile prisoners now undergoing sentences in reformatories. ' The largest number, about 275, are In the National Training School for Boys 1 in Washington, while 132 are held at the ; Industrial Home in Tipton, Mo. Ninety I more are held at Anamosa, Iowa; forty- i five more at Jessup, Md.; twenty-eight! at Cheshire, Conn., and forty-seven at ! Boonville, Mo. The remainder are scattered in small numbers throughout a half I dozen other States. Plan for Largest Rotary Convention LOS ANGELES. March 10.—Preliminary plans for what is confidently predicted will be the largest convention of the In- - ternatlonal Association of Rotary Clubs ever held, scheduled to take place in Los Angeles from June 5 to 0, are under way following a meeting of the national con- j vention executive committee. Expecting an attendance of more than 10,COO members representing Rotary ! Clubs all over the world, contracts for 3.000 room reservations have been prepared to assure visitors adequate accom- , modations. A convention budget fund of approximately SIOO,OOd has also been provided for. The Rotary Clubs are composed of rep- . resentative business men of the world. : Since they will gather here when the post-war business reconstruction period is at its height their discussions are expected to be of interest in all civilized , lands. Say Romance of Aged Pair Broken DENVER. March 10.—Has the romance of the 90-year-old groom and his 78-year-old bride been shattered in the few short months that Edward Ivanson and Mrs. Ora llaiey Ivanson have been married ? That is the question being asked by Denver friends of the aged couple, following discovery that Mrs. Ivanson is living in her beautiful Denver home, while Ivanson Is staying at a downtown Votel. The marriage of Ivanson and Mrs. Haley last July Is said to have united fortunes estimated at $0,000,000. Mrs. Ivanson declined to discuss the

rumored separation other than to admit that her husband was living in a Denver hotel. She said that suit for divorce had not been filed by either side.

They founded the First National Bank of Laramie, Wyo., of which Ivanson Is still president. Ivanson and his first wife were married sixty-five years before her death. The first Mrs. Ivanson and Mrs. Haley-Ivan-son were close friends, as were their husbands. NAVY’S FINGER PRINT SYSTEM HELPS POLICE Method Prevents Fraud Against Government in Sea Service.

sire to protect itself and the other branches of the Government, but also to aid in work of a distinctly beneficial character. Through the plan 11,526 identifications have been made, which were valuable for various reasons. The plan was put in operation in 1907 and, owing to its efficiency, it Is Impossible for any man who has served in the Navy since then to lose his identity. Not only is it used In cases of lost identity, but has proevd valuable in robbery cases where finger prints were the sole means of identity of the thieves. . During the last year the identification section of the Navy handled the records of 56.975 men. A branch of the system is known as thfe ‘‘one finger print” plan. This was installed owing to the practice of a certain class of persons who enlist solely for the purpose of obtaalning Government

transportation from one point to another. The system has virtually stopped this practice. It also checked materially another form of fraud. Many ex-service men with honorable records have lost those papers since getting out of the service. Unscrupulous parties, with bad records from the police or otherwise undesriable, sometimes find these papers and endeavor to "re-enllst” for the purpose of obtaining the four months’ bonus for such re-enlistments, then desert. The identification system has checked this. It also prevents undesirable persons from entering the Navy, 2,661 such characters being barred when they were Identified. This section has given valuable assistance to local police and the Department of Justice, besides many other agencies, in tracing persons sought for various reasons.
