They Get So They Like It j I In the police courts of New f York state it is getting to be a i ! common practice to sentence t .minor offenders to a term of ? saving, and in Syracuse last year j t .$3,000 was invested in this way ? f in war savings stamps, all later ; I returned to the men or used to f help their families. At Niagara $ ! Falls, when David Broderick ? f was placed on probation six f i mouths ago and ordered to give f the probation officer $12 a week f i for war savings stamps, he com- i I plnined bitterly. At the end of f six months he received $230.50 i I worth of stamps, and he volun- T ? tarily placed himself on indef- f I inlte probation, promising to I f bring in $10 a week to continue f ? his savings investment. j i |
