AMERICAN - TALKIES LIKED BY ENGLISH Yankes Spooch Amuses British But Films Are Popular Pittsburgh, Pa., May 7 (P dence that forzign born law-break- ers become Americanized in their erime habits is found by Dr. G. L Giardini in a study of several hun- dred inmates of the Western state penitentiary of Pennsylvanta. Dr. Giardini is psychologist the penitentiary. The American white criminal, he «ays, tends toward crimes of dep- redation, rather than of violence. Among crimes of depredation he lists larceny, burglary, robbery and embezzlement. Violence includes crimes against the person, such as Killings. His comparison is based on sev- eral hundred native born whites, and Italians, most of the latter for- eign born. “In general,” he says, “the Ital- fan tends to commit the same kind of crime as the native white in the degree in which he has been exposed to Amcrican/ environment, and according to the age at which exposure began. “The comparison tends to show that the rise in crimes of depreda- tion is associated positively with the degree of while the frequency of crimes of violence falls with the increase in de-Italianization.” He learns that Italians born here are even more like native whites. He notices an attitude of “noncha- lance and sophistication in place of native eagerness and anxiety.” With Americanization, the for- eign born lawbreakers become *more worldly wise and less given to revenge than their foreign born ‘brothers.” ' Mr. Giardini observes that the tests are proof that there can be Americanization along useful lines. He finds that education in the peni- tentiary in the three R's increases intelligence of criminals, but that wvocati6nal tralning is of greater im- portance for the social readjustment | of adult criminals. He Dbelieves that proper habits the penitentiary and that most im- portant of all is to follow this train- training in ing with supervision of paroled pris- | oners to insure that the desirable habits continue.

TUESDAY, MAY 7, 1929. LONDON GLERGYHEN JEWEL GOLLECTORS Two Clerics Have Worldly Hobby—Both Are Experts London, May 4 (#—Two London clergymen, who turned to precious gems and silver smithing as hob- bies, are gaining world fame as ex- perts in their respective subjects. The Rev. C. G. Langdon of St. Matthews church is a famous sil- versmith and queries come to him from all over the world aboct church ornaments. In North London there is the Rev. Charles W. Cooper, vicar of St. Paul's Canonbury, who has ent a lifetime in the collection of ious stones. He finds joy and ration in their color and glitter. Mr. Cooper has studied the gems of the world scientifically and his- torically, and he is the owner of a collection runaing into hundreds. In his study he has cabinets of specimens of gems. of which all have heard and stones bearing names utterly unknown to the pub- lic. There are rubies, agates, ame- thysts, and aquamarines; the cas- siterite, the sphene, the white gar- net and the spodumen. On the parsonage wall is a re- production of the “Breastplate of the High Driest, made by Mr. Cooper and set with 12 precious stones. There are framed stones, too, a great case of virgin exhib- |its on the mantel-shelf, and boxes of “natural specimens.” How A Little Daily Dose of Kruschen Makes You Lose Unhealthy Fat!

In a corner by the win- dow is Mr. Cooper's small work bench. “During the air raids,” he recalls, “I sat there until 2 o'clock in the morning, alone in the house, grind- ing opals. It used to drive all thought of air raids out of my mind. “I suppose I have many hundreds of precious and semi-precious siones. Sometimes jewelers come to me for duplicates, and 1 have been able to advise dealers. But I love precious stones for themselves and do not al- low them to overcome me.” Mr. Cooper keeps most of his gems and his pieces of precious stone in cottoa wool in small glass cases. He has accumulated his col- lection by discreet purchases here | and there—at second hand shops.
