When the cost of living went up, however, the jurists decided that a criminal Was entitled to a little more leeway, 8o that now a man can ste $50 and not be charged with the state prison offense of grand larceny. Dr. Davis said that a man stealing a pockethook didn't look at the con. tents before he did it, so that there Was no difference in the seriousness of the crime whether the wallet con- tained $49.99 or $15.02, said that petty crimes in daylight become gr larceny after dark another absurdity, i The softening terminology in deal- ing with crime was remarked upon by Dr. Davis, lormmh 1 wrong- doers were called “criminals,” then the less harsh term of “delinquent” | was applied, and now they are being called “unadjusted.” Concrete evid- lence of this is furnished by the | en Men, women and children were once thrown ail together into prisons, Then eame the house of refuge and then, with the realization that crim- inal tendencies might be corrected, the reformatory Next came state farm and now the last stigma has been removed by dropping the 'state” and calling the institution by a pleasanter name which carries no hint of any prison character. Un- graded classes for backward chil- dren are now helping to check wrong tendencies, while gociologists are even catching children before they are born by means of pre-natal in- fluences, but Dr. Davis ventured the belfef that there are many who can never be totally adjusted, no matter how young the authorities look after them. Women below tHe average in in- tellect were stressed as a dangerous class of delinquents; they have the brains ‘of children seven years old and she declared they should na more be left to themselves than the children, as they are no more able to plan their life, They are able to take orders, however, and if pro- | perly directed and watched over can be kept on the right track. Many of these women are particularly dan- gerous hecause they are personally attractive. Thelr eombined good looks and low mentality make them prey to vice, and judges are seldom able to understand their true char- acter, She cited one case In which an at- tractive young woman was hrought | before the jndge after she had had De- of her unfitness eiinnle self with e experiences. ask of the wee armless to | York | al up to She also | hanging character of institutions, | 28°Ment of the store and his wife the | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, ]!‘RIDAY.

She declared that girls should not be released as long as there was a single defect which could be removed, while, upon release, the placing of the unfortunate is of the utmost importance, Dr. Davis told the delegates that {this was where they could help, in Ing that the girls got the proper « als, was suggested by care, friends and recreation, Kutherine Bement Davis of New| Dr, Davis then charged tiat the { York in her uddress at the mid-year { Connectieut .
