The story of a woman who dis appeared from her home in Hunt ington county, Pa., over sixteen years ago and married a man in Hagerstown, it is said, and then, unknown to her first husband, i moved to a farm a few miles from his home, was revealed here when the woman’s fifteen-year-old ton, William Howard, jr., returned to the home of his grandfather, Charles E. Howard, at Funkstown, this county. Boy Is Born. Sixteen years ago the woman, then Mrs. James Chillicote, is said to have disappeared from her home at Mapleton, Pa. She went to j Pittsburgh, and there, it is said. she married William Howard, for- I merly of Hagerstown. The couple! moved to Milwaukee. Wis., where Howard is employed as a master mechanic in a large factory. One child. William, was born to the I couple, according to the story. The i couple lived in Milwaukee until a few years ago. when Mrs. Howard I asked her husband to purchase a i farm in Huntington county, Pa., near her former home. He assented, and Mrs. Howard I and her son moved to the farm, while Howard remained at work in Milwaukee. In the meantime Chil licote had instituted a futile search for his wife. When, after ten years he was unable to find her, he is said to have had her declared I legally dead. Chillicote, it is re- lated, then married a Mapleton i widow’ with several children. Recently one of Chiliicote’s step-; children asked for a pony, and he started in search of one. He was; told there was a pony on a farm nearby, and he went to the place to see the animal.

Mason, has had enodfefr unusual experiences in. tjie nast three months to keep her thinking the remainder of her days. She has been sentenced to prison, worked as maid in a home, then as hotel chambermaid, and toiled in a factory. Teaches Helpfulness. "I recommend experiments such as mine for excry individual,” she said today. “If we could all have ‘.hem we would discover more com pletely than in any other way the spirit of helpfulness and aynipathy abroad.” She obtained from Governor Dona hey, of Ohio, permission to go as l a convict to the woman’s prison at Marysville. To do this it was necessary to commit a crime. She committed a petty theft, was con victed of larceny, and sentenced to six months by Judge Franci’a Stevens. Pardoned After Month. As fclizabeth Sprague, she spent three -days in jail and a mouth at Marysville. At the end of the month tflhe was pardoned by the Governor. She left prison to work her way to New York. Her com ment on .this was: “In the -whole, these women, j thieves and murderers though they tare, are affectionate, kind,- and easy to get along with. They do I wrong, not for W’rong’s sake but because they never have learned I the necessity, for self-control. Employers Sympathetic. Mrs. Huck started out with 15 to I look for a job. j “I first told my employer I was ian ex-convict, but I found them i more than willing to help me along in spite of this, or perhaps r.n ac i count of it,” she said. “In Pittsburgh. I was employed ,as chambermaid in a hotel, and there I received my first ‘tip.’ I accepted it with as good grace as I could muster.” At Wheeling, Mrs. Huck got a job in a factory at $9 a week. With i this money she paid for board and 1 room. FLASHLIGHT EXPLOSION MAY COST HIM SIGHT RICHMOND.

KELLOGG IS TO OBTAIN DETAILS AT ONGE LY Arribasgador Will Present Ot ?et|PWl Statement—Negoti ations Similar to Ltaly’s pIIWS. Jnly I.—The foreign office today announced receipt of the expected note from Austen ChMSerialn, chancellor of .the :British, exchequer, inviting the French government to begin nego tiations for a settlement of the French war debt to England. The foreign office announced that negotiations will first be undertaken for the settlement of the French debt to the United States before the government will be in a position to discuzs the debt question with Britain. By H. K. REYNOLDS. Emile Daeschner, the French Ambassador, has been instructed to tell Secretary of State Kellogg that the French Government is giving serious consideration to the adjustment of its $4,000,000,000 debt to the United States. The ambassador will call on Mr. Kellogg this afternoon. Pending stody of the statement by the State Department, details of Mis instructions were not avail able, but it appeared doubtful if he had been authorized to go fur ther into the debt problem at the present time than to advise this Government that France intended jto pay her debt and would send experts to Washington later in the sumpier to discuss terms. Gesture Like Italy. This move by the French govern ment will put its debt on the same status as that of Italy, according to the view in diplomatic circles, the Dalian debt conference here having only advanced to the point of a promise to pay before an adjourn ment was taken to draft a funding plan. The gesture made by Italy, how ever, is believed to have influenced the French government to take a similar step. No commitments will be made by the Ambasasdor, but he will assure the American Debt Funding Com mission of France’s desire to li suidate her external debts as as the financial reform planned by Finance Minister Caillaux is real ized. Information to this effect already has reached the State Department, both from Myron T. Herr.ck, the American Ambasasdor at Parisi and through unofficial sources, but no definite action looking to the adL jvstment of its debt has been made oi. this side of the Atlantic bv France since the Parmentier com mission withdrew from Washington in August, 1922. Commission Is Hopeful. M. Daeschner came here as ambassador more than a year ago he discussed the foreign detb situa tion with Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, but at that time he had no instructions to talk of a settlement and could merely* discuss France’s financial and economic difficulties. The American Debt Comnussion looks upon the new French finan cial plan as a distinct step forward and is extremely hopeful that it will pave the way for a debt ad justment.

Attitude of MeUon. Although there are many points of similarity between the adjourn ment of the Italian debt confer ence on Tuesday and the break up of the negotiations with France in 1922, Secretary Mellon as chair man of the Debt Commission, in sisted today that the negotiations with Italy have not been broken off, but have merely adjourned until August. Mellon said there had been an understanding with the Italian ambassador that as soon as pre liminary conversations had been had. Minister Alberti would go back to Italy to collect the neces sary data “to disclose Italy’s abil ity to pay.” Britain Not to Intervene. LONDON, July 2.— Great Britain has no intention of intervening in any debt settlement that her va rious debtors may make with the United States, but she does believe that the time has come for these debtors to talk of settlement with her. This was the gist of a note circulating on the continent today among Britain’s debtors. While disclaiming any intention of “pressing” for immediate pay ment, the missive stated the British government considers the time appropriate ror her debtors to say when they will be prepared to open settlement negotiations.

DURNO International News Service. SWAMPSCOTT, Mass., July 2. Two problems hover over the hitherto serene horizon of Presi dent Coolidge’s vacation today, with a distinct threat that the next thirty days may-bring devel opments of a more or less em barrassing nature to the Adminis tration. The first has to do with the possibility of a general strike in the coal fields; the second bears upon the old question of religious aggravated of late by the revival and growth of the Ku Klux Klan. Strike Looms Grave. Os greater concern to the Presi dent. although not so imminent as the other, is the attending renewal of the biennial fight between coal operators and miners. The charge of John L. Lewis, president of the United Mino Workers of America, that industrial leaders, including John D. Rocke feller, jr., and Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, are conspiring to violate the Jacksonville wage agree ment, and his intimation that a general strike might be called to I force its observance, is causing Mr. Coolidge softie concern. A tie-up irt the coal mines would confront the President with the first real industrial crisis of his Adminis tration. Klan Problem Imminent. The klan problem is more immi nent. Although no invitation ac tually has reached the summer white house here, it has been an nounced that Mr. Coolidge would be asked to address the Klan con vention in Washington early in August and also review their parade. It has been stated through the press by officials of the klan th>t the executive could not well refuse them, because he spoke before the i Holy Name Society last year. While it already has been indi cated here that should the invita tion be received it would be de clined on the ground that Mr. Coolidge would not be In Washing ton at that time, opponents of the klan—Catholic, Jew and negro—a; e literally flooding White Court with demands that the President not only publicly refuse to accept, but that he take steps to prevent the klan from assembling and parading in the National Capital. Scores of letter and petitions have been received on this subject. Thus far, however, President Coolidge has taken no direct action which would indicate he was un duly concerned with either problem. But he is studying the situation closely. Hen Hatches Pheasants WRIGHTSVILLE, Pa., July 2. A hen owned by Harry Hake, near Wrightsville, has hatched thirteen ring-neck pheasants.

BRITISH 1 0. 5. IS TO M BEFORE Expect Co-operation in Policy of Powers, But Express Surprise at Move By International News Service. LONDON, July 2.—Great Britain today threw cold water on Secre tary of State Kellogg’s proposal for a new conference of the powers to Iron out Chinese troubles that have resulted in the present widespread disorders in that country. “China must put her house in order before there can be any •x>n ference to discuss matters of extra territoriality,” said a statement from the foreign office. British officials were manifestly surprised at Kellogg’s move, for no communication had been received from Washington, they asserted. In the absence of such official communication, foreign office offi cials said they believed the United States would continue to co-operate with the other powers interested in China and deal with the issue of extra-territoriality "only after China herself has cleared up the present situation, and showed herself able to protect foreign lives and prop erty,!’ By FRED C. WALKER. China’s immediate future hung in the balance today as the great powers of the world debated the Washington suggestion that a con ference be held at once to solve the involved extra-territorial rights problem. Informal advices, either accept ing or rejecting the American pro posal. were expected to arrive at the State Department within the next few days. The tenor of the communications will decide the next step in the negotiations. Officials Surprised. The arrival in Peking of Ameri can Minister John Van A. Mac Mu rray was expected here today to l>e the signal for the formal launching of the conference, which was pro vided for in resolutions adopted by the Powers here in 1921. Approval b/ Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan, of the pro posal, would be sufficient invitation. It was felt in official circles here, for the Peking givernment to again formally ask the Powers to accept her previously tendered invitation. Administration officials hare re garded the extra territoriality-as one of the great drawbacks to perma nent Chinese i During past decades, foreign powJ ers obtaining concessions in China' have been permitted to administer j and enforce .their own laws. I Chinese officials and police have had power to arrest foreigners, but at that point their authority ended, individuals appearing before magis trates of their own nationality. Beason For Riots. t was this condition which re cently inspired the anti-foreign riots and American officials are inclined to regard the present time as par ticularly appropriate for a general withdrawal by all of the world powers from their extra-territorial rights positions. The great hindrance to a gen eral agreement by world powers to abandonment of these rights has been the uncodified condition of China’s laws. Chinese magistrates impose sen tences based largely on tradition and it was to correct this condi tion that new penal and other codes were recently adopted. A commission is now engaged in codyfing all Chinese law at the piesent time, with indications that the task will be completed within the next year. Report Due in Year. The commission is oound by regulations to withhold ,ts report for one year after its formal meet ing. According to Chinese offi ciate here, the penal code would be finished before the expiration cf the commission’s time limits.

M wig. Bo I THE RIGHT HONORABLE L. M. S. AMERY, Who has been appointed to the office of British Secretary for the dominions and the colonies. the extra-territorial rights confer ence plan were: Great Britain, France, the United States, Belgium, Italy, China, Japan, Norway and Portugal. All with the exception of France have ratified the compact. Denmark, Spain, Peru and Swe den among other world powers ‘in dicated their approval of the pro posal. While the British government rnay not go as far as to formally oppose Secretary of State Kellogg's proposed conference, it was made plain in official quarters today that British statesmen are not enamored of the idea, l and probably will seek a delay until the present situation in China is straightened out. Chamberlain Opposed. Foreign Minister Austen Chamber iain has already stated that Britain sees no reason for considering the question of the extraterritorial rights now held by foreign powers in China. In fact, the British charge de’af faires at Peking has been instructed to tell the Chinese authorities flatly that Great Britain is opposed to consideration of this question so long as China shows herself unable to suppress the foreign disorders at Shanghai, Hong Kong and other places. The British policy is based pri marily upon British trade, arid-the need for its protection in China. The Daily Express spoke frankly jon this angle today and showed clearly what is in the back of British minds. Envision Big Trade. "Twenty-five per cent of the in habitants of the world live in China,” said the Express. "Ic«? more than 400,000,000 people make the country a vast potential market for British manufacturers a»-d their rivals.” Continuing, the editorial’ pointed out that China already has signed trade agreements with Japan and with Soviet Russia. This incident was mentioned as showing the need for the careful nursing of British trade prospects in the Far East. t Parley Over Shootings. By International Newa Service.

SCOPES TRIAL TOSTARTON SCHEDULE Judge Refutes Rumors of De lay—Letters Flood Day ton Mail WINCHESTER, Tenn., July 2. —The Scopes trial will open in Dayton on July 10. This was the answer today of Circuit Judge John T. Raulston, who.will preside, to rumors that the ease could be delayed and transferred to some other city. Raulston said he would reach Dayton July 8 "prepared to open the trial on July 10.” By WILLIAM K. HUTCHINSON. International News Service. DAYTON, Tenn., July 2.—A host of Americans, by using Uncle Sam’s malls, are rallying to the defense of John T. Scopes, who goes on trial next week for alleged violation of Tennessee’s anti-evolution law; it was disclosed here today liy his counsel. From all sections of the nation an army of scientists, educators, college professors and even min isters, as well as laymen, are writing letters of encouragement to the defense. Some offer funds, others their services. One personal note is sounded time arid again in Dayton’s mail bag. it is heard as often in the letters sent to Scopes as in the even greater number forwarded to the State authorities who will prosecute him. It is opposition to the two great figures brought into the trial —Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan. Evolutionists seldom fail to de nounce Bryan in their letters to Scopes, while fundamentalists just as often condemn Darrow in writ ing the prosecutors. Letters Are Serious. To read some of the letters, it seems the distant writers believe the trial here will be a physical battle between Darrow and Bryan. "Beat Darrow, God is with you,’’ .cry the fundamentalists. "Make a monkey out-of Bryan,” shout the evolutionists. Most of thb letters received by Scopes and his counsel are serious. One written to Judge John L. God sey, chief 'of defense counsel, by a Spokane, Wash., educator, said: “I do not see how any one can teach geology, botany, zoology or astronomy without violating the Tennessee law. Call on me if 1 can help you to wipe this vicious law off the statute books.” From Banning, Calif., another wrote: "The entrance of Bryan into the case means that the most powerful influences of reaction are to be arrayed against you. How can I help you beat them?” A Chicagoan wrote: "Bryan re sorts to the usual tactics of fraud. It is the last stand of the funda mentalists against evolution.” A Georgia editor wrote George W. Rappleyea. who initiated the test case: ’*4 trust Tennessee through the courts will throw off the yoke placed on its neck by the legislature and be free to grasp the truth wherever it is found. One of the greatest proofs of evolution is the slowness with which people, supposedly intelli gent, grasp new ideas. It is an evolutionary process in itself.” A Philadelphian wrote: “I am glad to see that you and your friends have the courage to fight bigotry. I am also glad to see Bryan against you—he is always wrong.” Many Offer Services. A Midland, Ark., minister, eighty four years old, wrote: “I am an, enemy of ignorance, lour cause is attracting world wide attention. I hope you will win.” Educators, editors and ministers have offered their services as wit nesses. Those accented already in clude Doctor Henry Fairchild Os born. of Columbia University: Doc tor Edwin Grant Conklin, of Prince ton; Professor Michael Pupin, of Columbia; Professor Kirkley F.‘ Mather, of Harvard; Professor L. F. Rettger, of Yale; Professor May nard M. Metcalfe, of Oberlin Col lege; Doctor Edward L., Rice, of Ohio Wesleyan and Professor Henry Higgins Lang, of Kentucky Uni versity. So great was the task of read ing his mail it finally forced Scopes to take a vacation. Now the young teacher is reported "rest ing” in a mountain retreat in Ken tucky. He will return here late i this week. Dayton meanwhile takes things calmly. She has her hour in the sun, and she is willing to have the sun so bright it will dazzle all the rest of the world.

Mr. Symington did not have to go to those lengths to kill my love for him. “Indeed', I do not think he could have done such a thing had he been left to himself.

His family desired it, and he was putty in their hands.’’ Asked if sne would consider a reconciliation with Symington, she replied: "Oh, I couldn’t; I don’t even want to talk of it.” Eloping Groom Jailed MONROE, N.

SCRANTON, Pa., July 2.—Con vening for the fourth day’s sessions of the trl-district convention of the United Mine Workers of America, the 700 anthracite delegates had be fore them today, for approval or rejection, the final draft of the recommendations of the wage scale committee. The recommendations of the com mittee, which, If approved by the delegates, will stand as the de mands of the 155,000 miners In the anthracite field when the present wage scale agreement expires Au gust 31, Include ae their major items, a flat 10 per cent increase for all mine employee, the institu tion of the "check off" system for union dues .collection, and an in crease of $1 a day for day-shift miners. The first reaction of the dele gates toward the recommendations was of surprise, it appeared. Estimates from apparently au thoritative sources had placed the expected demands for an increase at a minimum of 15 per cent, with many favoring 20 per cent. No basis for the decision to declare for a 10 per cent increase has been announced. It appeared certain today that all of the recommendations, includ ing three lesser demands, would meet with the instant approval of the delegates. Should any dissen tion at all arise, it is expected _to be over the small recommended increase in wages. ENGINEER WRECKS TRAIN TO SAVE BABY HARRISBURG, July 2.

4 JEAN ELIOT’S NEWS AND GOSSIP OF SOCIETY JOINS LIST OF ELIGIBLE PARTIS Senator Gerry Now Ranks With Other Available Solons NtjW that Mrs. Gerry, one-tim*> -wife of Senator Peter Goelet .Gerry'-pf Rhode Island,' w married to B.- Su-mner Welles, of Boston, New York and Washing soh—which event took place Satur day—the few members of Washing ton society 7 stim lingering within the. 'range, .of the deserted White House are interested in discussing who will fall to the lot of Senator Gerry irt a new matrimonial align-

With “Mathilder Townsend” defi nitely -out of- the picture Senator Gerry ip left ranking high among eligible husbands. Already gossip has mentioned several of the smartest among the feminine con tingent as having an eye on him. But it is more difficult for gossip to find where his eyes are focussed in the matrimonial tag-game. Senator Gerry has gone for the summer to his place near Provi fence. R. I.—so it is probable that the direction in which he is looking in the matrimonial mart will 'not be authentically ascertained before another season. And yet it is possible that the sentiment which goes with the summer may induce a decision resulting in a new sena torial hostess w'hen the “gentleman from Rhode Island” takes his place again in the Senate. Knowing the appreciation. of. a ■well-known widow for this .aewly eliaible Senator some are exclaim ing, “Ah, I see!” at the report that she is visiting relatives in Providence. If that’s a clue —make the most at it! Senator Gerry adds one more- to an already impressive list of wife less men in the Senate. Others on the list are Senator Albert Cum mins of lowa, whose two sister*, the Misses Cummins, act as his hostesses; Senator Frederick Halo of-Maine, who lives with hismothei in the large house at Sixteenth and K streets; Senator Thomas J;~ Walsh of Montana, who has an apartment at Meridian over which he presides; Senator Kenneth McKellar, Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas, Senator William McKinley and Senator Tom Heflin* Stars Smiled on Gerry-Townsend Wedding; Explanation Offered of Rift. When Mathilde Townsend was married to Senator Peter Goelet Gerry it seemed that the stars smiled on the match. The son of Commodore Elbridge Gerry, of New York and Rhode Island, the Senator was then the baby of the upper house, and was destined by wealtn, position and ability for a career Os influence both social and political. Young, beautiful and' accomplished, hie wife seemed fitted to perfection to aid him in this career. Ever since it began to be rumor ed that there was a rift in the lute there has been much speculation as to the cause of the difficulties be tween them. All sorts Os sugges tions have been made and there has even been an occasional fan tastic effort to blame their troubles on the famous ill-fated black pearls of Prince Poussipoff, which Mrs. Gerry’s mother, Mrs. Richard Townsend, purchased for her. However, the most plausible ex planation is supplied by friends of both, who declare that they drifted apart because Senator Gerry was immersed in his career and his wife was bored to tears with poli tics and political people. The marriage of Mrs. Gerry and Mr. Welks can not be said to have caused much surprise in Washing ton, except that until it was an nounced nobody had been able to obtain definite information as to whether or not the divorce proceed ings instituted by Mrs. Gerry in Paris last summer had car ried to a successful conclusion. Mr. belles is a “graduate” of our foreign service, but has been em ployed on one special mission or another by the State Department almost continuously since his rejig ration. At one time he was high commissioner for the United States in Santo Domingo and more re cently he has been at the head oL a misslorj__ia Honduras. He, too. has previously been married. His first wife was Miss Esther Slater, daughter of Mrs. Horatio Nelsin Slater, of Boston, and heiress to a large slice of the Slater fortune made in the woolen mills of Massa chusetts. The former Mrs. Slater is now Mrs. Kerrigan and she and her husband are said to he with her mother on the Riviera. Mrs. Townsend has always been devoted to Senator Gerry and was much grieved when the marriage vent on the rocks. Color to the minor that she is not pleased with her daughter’s second venture given by the fact that announce ment of the marriage was made n >t by Mrs. Welles’ mother but bv her aunt. Mrs. Townsend, however, is in rather frail health and it has been some years since she. nas tak?n an active part in society in Washington, over which she once wielded a rather autocratic sway. For many years Mrs. Townsend birthday ball _ for her daughter wa; an annyal event and an invitation thereto was considered a sort «.f •.octal accolade.

First, he dropped down on all fours and began to emit barks and growls that elicited the mild interest of Buzz, his brindle bulldog. When Kigger lunged forward at the same time that he woof-woofed. Buzz looked an noyed. But when Kigger K "ld Buzz firmly while he closed his teeth hard on a mouthful of the dog’s back, Buzz lost patience and showed what a real bite was like, sinking his own teeth deep in the flesh of Rigger’s head and hands. something to worry about I think are the poor ginks that burn a {bright lobster red, and blister.

Q Each is blended with that just-right quantity and quality of pure water and pure fruit flavors that properly sets off the tingling refreshment of real ginger ale. Each is made with the pure and sparkling Clicquot Club spring water, which adds the tingle of refreshment to satisfying taste. Q It takes time to make as good a ginger ale as Clicquot Club.

He mentioned th* consolidation of th* transportation system a* pro- gressing rapidly under the “in telligent supervision of the Inter state Commerce Commission.” In some quarters the view of the Administration toward the gigantic rail consolidations is in-, terpreted as meaning that the Cool idge regime will not be marked by anv extensive “trust busting” ac tivities. although Attorney General Sargent has declared that the policy of the Department of Justice to ward trusts, as reflected by Sey mour’s remarks, remains un changed. “I do not mean to say that these combination* are all illegal, or fraught with menace to our eco nomic welfare.” Seymour explained, “But it is of the utmost impor tance in the common interest that every move toward the centraliza tion of power in any industry, or ameng those dealing in any com modity should be scrutinized with care. •‘lt is the Government’s duty to challenge any gttsmpt to secure an unfair advantage over the public by artificial combination and agree ment. Control Prices. “It is no answer that restrictive covenants only prevent Injurious competition and result in the main tenance of reasonable prices. What we are afraid of, and what we have good reason to fear, is the existence of the power of mdivi duals or small groups to control supply and fix prices.” Seymour said that the initiative in bringing antitrust case* before the Federal courts rests upon the Department of Justice. At the present time about thlrty-three case* are pending which will re quire actual trial, and twenty-dne ar* in a stage where either civil or criminal proceeding* are im minent. “If all of the cases ar* actually filed, there will be pending at on* time fifty-four antitrust cases, a larger number than has been In the courts at one time J** Sherman law was passed, Sey mbur said. “Dozing” Fatal to Cyclist TRENTON, July aa he returned tb this city .after vtttt jng in Bristol, Oliver Johnson drove his motorcycle head on in the trolley car and two hoars later died as th* result of the injuries.

SCHOOL bojud Langdon “Fire Trap” Protest Referred to Fire Marshal For Investigation Protests? from two groups of mothers marked the reorganization meeting of the Board of Education yesterday at W'hich Edwin C. Gra ham w r as. elected president,. and Ernest Greenwood, .vice president. Mothers of children attending the Langdon school, termed a firetrap for its frame construction, came to urge the board to close the school. They told the board they preferred to have their children remain away from school rather than endanger their livea in the Langdon building. The board finally referred the mat ter to the office of the fire marshal for an investigation and report on the possibility of making the struc ture safe. Park View mothers appeared be fore the board to protest against the addition of another story to the Park View School. They declared thev preferred to have the building remain as it is. Their request was for an addition adjoining the struc ture. Mrs. John B. Bradley spokes man for the delegation, declared teachers and physicians had opposed making the children climb to the third floor to their classes. The board finally voted to recom mend to the Commissioners that the municipal architect be instructed to erect gn eight-room addition to the building. This leaves the decision as to how the addition is to be made up to the District building officials. Following his election, Mr. Gra ham made a brief statement of his policies. He appealed for co-opera tion between the Board of Educa tion and school officials. He also What’s Doing Today and Tomorrow Today.

She says the “Count” posed as a Belgian veteran. An nouncement of their wedding was soon to be made, when Clarmond induced Miss Dodson to let him have a diamond and sapphire ring of hers to be appraised. The ring was valued at 1600.

10 OK IW [NO PUB 11101 SYSTEM Competition Hurts Business, .-'Secretary Says, As He Starts Campaign By HARRY WARD. Secretary of Labor James J. Davis has begun a campaign to wipe out entirely the employment of prison labor in competition with free labor. While he does not ad vocate Idleness in the penal instf- Jutions of the country, he believes they should provide for the vocation al training of every convict in a useful trade at which he could find employment aftei his release. “I would not have prison -made goods marketed even for Govern ment use,” Davis said. The Labor Secretary had the Bureau of Labor Statistics compile figures covering the subject of con vict labor and he was startled to flnS that of the 84.761 convicts whom the Bureau found in the State and Federal penitentiaries, less than 10,000, or only about 19 per cent, were working outdoors on public highways and public works. •'I was startled to find out how many of these prisoners were turned over to contractors who pay the State a ridiculously low amount per day for the labor of these prisoners, and still larger numbers who were working for contractors under a piece price system, which is even .worse," Davis declared. Undersell Markets. “These men are working at an industry which has no educational value for them, which is not fitting them to earn an indpendent live lihood after their term in prison. I found, they were running sewing machines, putting out 12,000,000 workers’ shirts a year, to enable a convict labor contractor to under sell in the markets and thjis bank' rupt outside shirt makers employ ing people trying to earn an honest living. These prisoners were throw ing people out of work and making them easier victims to the condi tions which create more convicts for the contractors. “I found, these convicts making 3.849,803 pairs of workers’ Jrousers,. 99.8 -per cent of which were sold in the open market in competition with free workers. I found therp making 5.759,140 pairs of shoes, thrown onto the market to close. more shoe factories at a time when! legitimate shoe manufacturers were throwing their employes out of work.” Secretary Davis claims that not orly is this an unfair advantage given to prison contractors at' the expense of the criminal of the State, but it makes practically impossible any reform In the treatment of the convict himself. "The prisoner who sews a false Inbel in a prison-made garment/ in dicating that it was made by an outside manufacturer, knows that he is forced to become a liar and a cheat,” he said. "If our jails and penitentiaries teach a man to lie. what can we expect of that man when we set him free?” Davis thinks prisons should be taken out of the cities and placed out in the country, where the in mates would be removed from the air and environment that had wrecked their moral fiber. A Moral Menace. "I find that of the $76,000,000 v.orth of work done by convicts in prnftentiariec. in one year only sl,- 000,000 represented work on public highways,” he said. “Let the pris-’ orers do something for society that society needs—build roads where reads are needed—and not work for hr.other individual or a firm which is itself more of a social menace than he was! t The convict labor contractors who put 12,000,000 workers’ shirts on the market to close shirt factories md throw thousands of people out of work are no less a moral menace because the law does not brand them criminals. You put the individual criminal convict to work for a bigger criminal and then wonder that you have not reformed him.” “If we really want to empty our jails and penitentiaries we ought to begin with the child,” he added. “I am told that 80 per cent of the population of our jails, penitenti aries and other similar institutions come from the ranks of 500,000 neg lected and under-privileged child ren. We spend literally billions of dollars in punishing and caring for our criminals and defectives and enforcing the criminal laws. Migb* it not be well to devote some of these billions to rescuing the neg lected child before he or she grows up to join the outlaw ranks?"
