- SPORTING GOODS OHIO APPROVES OF HONOR CONVICGTS Backs Governor in Taking Them | on Trip Columbus, 'Ohio, Aug. 3.—Although the Canadian government has an- nounced that it may deport the convicted, murderers, “trustees” from the Ohio penitentiary who accom- panied Gov. Donahey on his vacation fishing trip, public opinion here is in- clined to side with the governor. To understand the attitude of the public it is necessary to know that for more than a degade’ Ohio has been experimenting with the honor system in its penal institutions. Pris- oners in the Ohio penitentiary, when they show themselves worthy of trust, are placed outside the institution to work on state labor. A large farm 20 miles west of Col- umbus is worked entirely by convict labor, and 40 miles southeast of Col- umbus is a brick plant where thou- sands of paving bricks for use on state highways are manufactured by conviets. There are neither cells nor walls at these places, and only a sin- gle guard, who acts more as an over- seer than as a keeper. Other prisoners are employed as caretakers at the state fair grounds, the state university, state hospitals and other institutions in ~and near Columbus. Most of these men are re- turned to the prison each night to sleep, but whilé, at work are unac- companied by guards. Last year mote than 1,200 prison- ers were on their honor.at.one time or another, and less than a score broke faith. Most of these were re- captured. The penalty for a preach of trust is two years “inside.” Because of the success of this sys- tem, whicH has grown up almost im- perceptibly, Ohioans in and near Col- umbus whor‘m-e watohed it are in- clined to snifle quietly at the horror of the Canadian ‘officers who seem to feel their citizenry will be contam- inated by the convicts. No ground for action by Ohio courts or the attorney gemeral exists. The warden of the penitentiary, who is a member of the governor’s party, has full charge of the two men. There i8 no penalty attaching to him if the prisoners should take “‘French leave.” AUTO RUNS AWAY Delivery Car Makes Unguided Trip and Lands Against Light Pole Breaking It At Base. A bakery auto parked on North street, near Sexton street, started on a wild rampage down North street hill shortly after 11 o'clock this morn- ing and brought up against an elec- tric light pole in front of the Elihu Burritt Junior High school breaking it off at the base. Teofil Rusia of 82 Winter street later reported to the police that he had left his machine parked on North street in front of a store while he was delivering bakery and while he was gone the car started down the hill. QUALITIES OF COOLIDGE Classmate of President At Amherst Says That He Has Many Charac- teristics of Abraham Lincoln New York, Aug. 3.—President Coo- lidge has many of the qualities of Lincoln, of whem he is an admirer, Robert H. Mainzer, honorary deputy fire chief of the New York fire de- partment, and a classmate of Mr. Coolidge at Amherst college said to- day. *'At our twenty-fifth class re-union at Springfleld, Mass.,, in June, 1920,” Mr. Mainzer stated, ‘Cal, no man lving by his words, deeds, actions and voice reminds me more of Abraham Lincoln than you do’ To which he replied, ‘Well, Bob, don’'t you think he is a pretty good man to follow?'

The orders, as is- sued, give the proprietors until Sat- urday to clean out their places. A few of the proprietors have called at police headquarters to ask Chief Hart if they might erect counters in place of the bars so that they could con- tinue in the restaurant business.
