Arbuckle's Glootn May Block His Comeback luto Filmdom
BY JACK JUNGMEYER Copyright , 1922, hy United Pt'esa LOS ANGELES, Dee, 28.—With everything he held dear in hls old Use gone, a deep gloom has setti od dovn on Roseo© ("Fatty”) Arbuckle, a gloom vhicli has not entirely been dlssipatod by thè pardon granted Arbuckle by Will IL Hays, movie roentor, permitting him to act again in pictures. Arbuckle's palatini home is gone, Gone, too, is thè resplendent automobile that used to "knock thè eyvs’’ out of Hollywood. Gone are thè good fellovs vhe aie his bread In his days of affluenee. Gon© to New York is hls wife. Minta Durfea, vho sat at his side durtng thè trial that folloved thè Virginia Rappe tragedy and preceded Arbuckle's bdng barred from thè movies. • My guess is that ìt's godng te be hard for "Ditly” Arbuckle te eavort and vaddle and do thè old clownish stuff vith any sembianca of spontanei ty. I forined that opinion aster a visit and talk vith thè formar comedian. Arbuckle has gained a little weight during his enforeed ldleness. His jovls sag lowesr. The old smile vrinkles have disappeared. The chief obstacle to his ccrmeback is thè dumps iato vili eh he has plunged. Since his banishment from thè filma Arbuckle has been in dose rotirement. He and his dog retreated to a little obscure cahin in Hollywood. “I just want to vork. and to make peopie laugh—and to eat,” he says.

IMOIfE STARTED IKING PRISQNS SELF-SUPPOITING Productive Employment of Inmates Necessary to Greatest Efficiency. By ADOLPI4 LEVVISOHN President, National Committee on Prisons and Prison Labor, in an Interview With NEA Service. NEW YORK, Dee. 28.—The flrst step has been taken in a great prison movement by tho establishment. of a classification institution at Sing Sing. The movement, guided by thè Nationel Committee on Prisons and Prison Labor, is based on th© fact that productive employment in prisons is necessary if prisons are to make progress toward cound conditions. Productive employment is necessary: First, to train th© prisoner so that he may be oquipped to support himself when he is released; second, to enable him to eam wages while In prison in order that he can support himself and those dependent upon him. This will make prisons self supporting and relieve law-abiding eitlzens of heavy taxation imposed to maintain able-bodled, mentally sound law breakers. The method deviseli to sort out tho human maerial is that every porson convicted of crime, aster convictlon and befor© sentenco, shall ho reman ied to a clearing house for ihorough examination. Rei caso upon expiration of sontence must be changed to release when flt to return to society. New York State is mah in % <iefinite progress towanl thè adoption of this nev system. The cla-ssification instltution. erectod at Sing Sing at a cost of $1,800,000, vili be ready for opera.!ion this winter. Prison©rs vili be sent thero immediately aster sentane©, for as yet no provasi on has be©n made to remami them aster oonvlction and befor© sentence. Prisoners examined vili he as- | slgned sclentifically io thè lnstitutlons Mlthin thè prison System best suitd to tr.iln them. The next dovelopment vili be thè application of psychological tests to thè methods of asslgnlng men to industry.
