Seeks The author Modification of the law—State| | Senator Caleb H. Baumes—believes | it should be modified and the newly organized New York State Parole Board is equally eager that the mandatory life-term prison be changed. So does Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt. Dr. Walter N. Thayer, newly-ap- polmed State Commissioner of Cor- rection, is another who favors mod- tification as soon as possible. | “It is to my mind, psychological- |1y, wrong,” said this eminent -crimi- nologist. “It is neither right nor iproper to say when a man is con- “lc!(‘d he should never be released. “I believe the best system would tbe to impose on fourth offenders a minimum sentence, and a maxi- mum sentence of life, leaving the final release of the prisoner up to the Parole Board after the mini- mum period has been served.” It is three and a half years since the drastic Baumes law went into effect. Two hundred men and women—some of them hardened criminals, others unfortunates and pathological thieves — today are doomed to spend the rest of their natural lives behind prison walls. But the results of the drastic life- term law quickly spread far out State. Other commonwealths took up New York's newly adopted meth- od of dealing with the crime wave tand passed similar laws of their own. Forerunner of Disaster The widespread movement ended in the most disastrous series of jal breaks the country has ever seen. public, as lifers rioted in institu- tions all over the country, has ap- iparently reached at last the ears of officialdom. : Strong disapproval of the drastic new laws was also registered each time a man or woman, obviously more unfortunate than vicious, was sent away for life. There was the notorious case of Ruth St. Clair. Miss St. Clair, at 129, was given a mandatory life iterm after being convicted for the fourth time of shoplifting. - Nobedy attempted to deny the fact that the St. Clair girl was an incorrigible shoplifter, a drug addict and a woman of questionable vir- tue.

He is enroute to his home in Skagway after visiting Anchorage, Seward, Cordova and Wrangell The fishermen all have money, some of them netting a greater re- turn last summer than ever before. And they are spending it, putting it into circulation and business generally has benefitted by it, Mr. Rasmuson said. “The fishermen are riding airplanes, now, and the packers are afoot,” he commented. “The price of fish is low, too low, and the packers are not prosperous. They paid good prices for salmon, in some instances the cost of raw fish exceeding the sum received for the finished pack by the canners on the open market. “This has been bad of the packer, but the prosperity of th~ fishermen is a wonderful thing for the Terri- tory,” he said. i ot TO SHIPPERS Sailing of Norco from Seattle is delayed until Septcmber 30, Tues- m. —adv. ‘Sleep On Right Slde, Best for Your Heart If you toss in bed all night and can't sleep on right side, try simple glycerin, saline, etc., (Adlerika).
