PRISON REFORM IS DAUGHERTY’S FAVORITE HOBBY Believes Convicts Could Be Made Useful Citizens. WASHINGTON, April 2S— Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty has a lot of hobbies. He likes to drag away on a rusty-look-ing pipe. He’s a pretty fair fisherman. He turns a wicked tenor in an Impromptu barber ebop quartette. When not engrossed with official cares he enjoys a card game, a horse race, a billiard game, or any one of forty ether T&rleties of pastimlng. His real hobby, though, Is making good men out of bad one*. It’s not a new hobby for him. He's been doing It for years. Taking the helm as head of the Justice Department, and the President’s right-bower In legal problems, Mr. Daugherty Jumped Into a field of activity genuinely to his liking. Possessing "human” qualities In a rare degree, the Attorney General within one year has ex tended his humanness Into the dark recesses of the Federal prisons. Within the Federal penitentiaries Mr. Daugherty has Introduced moral and educational advantages calculated to make real men out of the convicts, so that when their terms end tley may go Into different fields of activity and again become useful citizens—free from the temptation to repeat their old and dangerous ways. At the three penitentiaries maintained hy the Government at Atlanta, L-eaven-wojth and McNeill Island, C*ai., Mr. Daugherty has seen remarkable results from the operation of prison schools. In Atlanta Prison over two hundred illit- • rates, some native and some foreign bore, after a few months’ stn-ly were able last Christmas to write intelligent letters to friends and relatives. PRISONERS MAKE GOOD. More than one thousand prisoners were paroled and their earnings were about $1,000,000. The Attorney General gave that number another chance to make good and they are making good. Besides, they are contributing their share to the •’ountry's productive output—production that would be lost If they remained In prison. The success of Industrial enterprises it Atlanta, so conducted that there Is profit both for the Government an-1 for the prisoners themselves on a bonus ta--i-j. according to their output, bad led A>toilney Genera] JDaugherty to urge Congress to pass a bill authorizing the installation of similar industrial features in the prisons at Leavenworth and McNeill island. Ac: trdm duck mill operated *t Atlanta : rlson brought a net profit to the Government of $155.000 and earned for the prisoners. In bonuses .< two cents a yard on their output, about $45,000. About 650 prisoners are emploved In the Atlanta Prison cotton mill. Th? product is not sold In open market, but Is disposed of to Government departments needing such supplies. "IDLENESS PKRNICIOCS* Because of Industrial methods ind other measures to establish p .son re\>rm, the Attorney General said ecently ibat. although there are now 645 more inmates at the three prisons named, the ■ xpenses of operating them will be about *70.000 below the amount appropriated by Congress. Mr. Daugherty’s opinion is that Idleness Is dangerous both to the Idle and !u society. “Idleness Is perniclons,” he said —"pernicious both morally and physically to all men, especially to prisoners. If men TT prison are to again 611 places of usefullness In society it Is imperative that constructive labor be furnished them during their confinement. "No record of merely material accomplishment can give such satisfaction as comes from the re-establishment of a man as a useful member of society. The period of a man’s Incarceration for an offense against the State need not necessarily be destructive of the man's pres ent or future worth to society nor of his self-respect or Immediate earning capacity.” DENTIST WINS. LONDON, April IS. —Mrs. Eleanor Canning lost her sn ; against Dr. Henry Ide. a dentist, w’ne.i sue admitted she told him to use his own Judgment as to what teeth to extract. She claimed he pulled good onesFOR ITCHING TORTURE U3e Antiseptic Liquid Zemo There is one remedy that seldom falls to stop itching torture and relieve skin irritation, and that makes the skin soft, clear and healthy.
