Superintendent country has failed miserablj in the handling of prisons. This is not a failure to keep prisoners confined, but one of not inmates into tractable and citizens. We have task which the coma delegated to the poorest-equippe- d agency bined ingenuity of all the rest of society has yet found impossible of solution the task of controlling criminal conduct. Indirect responsibility for the prison riots and the Columbus (Ohio) catastrophe may be attributed to the crime commissions who called for more punishment, the legislatures that increased penalties, and to the judges and parole boards who lost their sense of proportions in the matter of sentences. , The fight is now on between society and the criminals. The position taken in reference to the treatment of prisoners within the next few years will be of extreme importance to our future welfare. Frisons of the future should be at once a disciplinary school for those who can be reformed, a place of permanent segregation for the incorrigible, and a laboratory for the study of the causes of crime. Prison conditions at present are infinitely better than those of 60 years ago, but it has taken the bloody riots of recent history to bring about a general public movement toward better conditions. Punishment can be so devised, I believe, to be at once protective, corrective and deterrent. THIS Great Britain's newest submarine, Rainbow, the first on the 1923 program, after ft was launched. The vessel weighs 1,475 tons (2,015 tons submerged) and Is expected to carry one four-inc- h and two smaller guns.

The press has played a very helpful part in relieving the hysteria that accompanies business depressions in the nation. Actual information, the common possession of all, could be trusted to translate itself into intelligent action, in preservation of the business fabric. Exaggerations and rumors must be stripped of their power to injure or to paralyze individual judgment. Unemployment and the fear of unemployment must be lifted from the individual, in and out of business, so that the orderly habits of our people could sustain the everyday process of trade. American journalism, safeguarded by national ideals of free speech and free press, has been a great force in guiding and crystallizing public opinion. In this country as nowhere else in the world, public opinion is the court of final resort, and the influence which translates itself, fast or slow, into laws and administrative acts. Growing industry, increased workers wages and higher living standards have created a new standard of intelligence and information in the public which American journalism touches. Increasing intelligence with the wide spread of education has created a people who should be trusted to understand something of these forces which translate themselves into human welfare.

Today the proportion is about 2 to 1. Children are in danger of becoming swamped in an atmosphere planned mainly for the convenience of adults. The home, former stronghold of the child, is breaking up and being replaced by the school. People move oftener from house to house. Members of the family work and play more outside the family circle. There is a steady disintegration of family bonds and constructive family influences. Labor-savin- g devices and the necessary crowding of families into small living quarters combine to hike out of the home the activities which formerly knowledge of the ways human beings secure gave the child a first-han- d for themselves the basic essentials of food, clothing and shelter. No matter how widely the tenement house and the luxurious apartment hotel may differ in the comforts of life, they are at one in their disregard for the needs of child life. The former drives the child into the streets, while the latter restricts his activities to an environment dominated by adults. adults for each 1,000 children LAWYERS MUST By JUSTICE CLEAN HOUSE ROYAL A.

On the ethical side, no profession, and possibly no business, is put on a lower plane in the lay mind than our own. Whether the rising tide of criticism and denunciation is a mere surge in a flow that has been going on for centuries and will soon subside or whether it is a portent of a real and impending danger may not be clear. But it is plain that as a profession we do not enjay the degree of confidence of which we aspire to Aid Subnormal Children Free lunches for pupils in the ungraded classes of Atlantas public schools are provided by the Junior league, composed of society girls and matrons.

The steadily rising standards of journalism are an encouragement to those who believe that the press should not only be one of the most powerful agencies in the life of the people, but also one rendering the highest possible service through dissemination of constructive thought in science, social advance and civic idealism. The greatest challenge to the ingenuity of the journalist is to make thee things as interesting to the public as are the more familiar subjects which apparently must be treated in terms of conflict. I am happy to believe that continual progress is being made in these direction by the press. Take IS NATURES REtCEBY tonight.
