PROBATION ABUSES TOLDBY ERSKINE Cheshire Relormatory Head Speaks to Rotarians of This City Abuse eof the probation system brings disrespect for law and in some instances is responsible for increas- ing the population at the Connecticut reformatory at Cheshire, according to (teorge C. Erskine, syperintendent, who spoke at the Rotary club meet- ing at the Burritt Hotel today. It is not uncommon for Loys to be sent to Cheshire who have four or five probation periods uncancelled, Mr. Erskine eaid, and added that re- contly a boy was sent there who had been on probution 11 times from none of wpich he was discharged. He said the boy could noc under- stand why he was sent to Cheshire hecause the lust offense was not as serious as previous crimes. Cheshire gets those of*weak wills, he stated, adding “the weak boys are the first to fall in times of de- pression.” Magazines and motion picture shows which depict the master crook as a super mapn, shrewd, bright and capable are all wrong, the speaker declared. “If a cropk were that kind of 2 man he wouldn’t land in prison,” he emphasized. Mentally Defective “Fully one third of the boys in the institution are mentally defec- tive, but, although theré has been a [®ill in the legislature for the past |three terms for adequate provisions for special treatment for the mental- ly defective,” he continued. Mr. Erskine was asked if boys at Cheshire were permitted to use to- bacco, He sald the use of tobacco in the institution is regulated. Boys are not permitted clgarettes because of fire danger, but they are allowed to smoke pipes at certain times and in certain places. They may chew tobacco as much as they wish. 315113‘ boys go wrong, he said, be- cause the spirit if adventure, which is found in all persons is misdirect- ed. They steal, not because they want to be crigninals but because they want to do something for a thrill He advocated stressing respect for | family name and traditions, and suggested more fully the uge of such | institutions as the Y. M. C. A., Boy Scouts, Boys' club, and similar or- ganizations. “Instill into them a desire to do the right thing and they won't go wrong,” he said in conclu sion. A. H. Scott, Logan E. Page anu E. W. Bennett will motor to Green- field, Mass.,, tonight to attend a charter night meeting there.. MARKET KEEPS ITS Tnquiry for Railroad Bonds Con- tinues Undiminished Today New York, Sept. 25 (P—Inquiry for railroad bonds continued un- diminished today as the entire bond market maintained its forward movement.

In the foreign list, there was,| further price improvement in Ger- man governments and other issues of that country, South Americans steadied.

PRICE MOVEMENT AGAIN IRREGULAR Key Stocks Display Resistance When Near Low Levels New York, Sept. 25 (#) — Price movement in the curb market teday cut an irregular swath as traders strove to get their bearings, after the devastation wrought yesterday. The principal consolation for those on the long side was the resistance displayed by key stocks, when de- pressed within shooting distance of the low levels reached befere the rally set in in the final hour yester- day. Heavy tone prevNled and there were fresh displays of weakness throughout the list, although in the main, price movement narrowed and was subject to alternate currents of buying and selling. The volume of business was under the high level of yesterday. A slightly lower trend was in evi- dence in the utility group although the principal pressure was applied | to a few stocks. Electric Bond & Share dipped to a fraction above vesterday’s low and occasionally made small rallies and on the whole | moved uncertainly.’ United Light & they || ERé!:D, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1930.

Strong. New York, Sept. 25 (A—Stocks | bobbed up and down in confusion | today, but the main trend was down- | ward. The market, nervous after | its recent experiences, moved with decided irregularity, developing lit- | tle strength on the rallies and, on the other hand, becoming more ac- tive whenever professional offerings were pressed. Sentiment was im- proved somewhat by the carly firm- ness of wheat. Selling, however, was directed more noticeably to individual issues and a coupte of well-defined groups, and the so-called pivotal shares as a rule found support on the reac- tions. Pressure was particularly strong against the farm implements 2nd the oils; more than a dozen o latter classification broke to | lows for the year. U. S. Steel, after making fraction- al improvement, sagged a couple of points and American Can turned a one point advance into a moderate loss. On the whole, the same course was followed by other investment stocks, including American Telephone } and Gen. Electric. Case tumbled 10 | points, International Harvester 4 and | Prairie Pipe about 5, a to new mini- | mums. Allied Chemical, Auburn and | Auto and American Smelting lost 3. Vanadium and a few other pool stocks, in which liquidation was se- | vere yesterday, were again heavy Radio, Standard Oil of New York, Gillette, Packard and Chrysle among many others, dipped to new 1930 lows. Traction Shares Strong New York City Traction shares | were a strong feature and made some prominent advances under buy- ing stimulated by a belief that re- cent developments forecast import- ant and possibly successful efforts | toward unification. Brooklyn-Man- hattan Guaranteed, an inactive stock soared more than 17 points and gains of 3 to 4 in the active members of the group were general. The gloomy rumors which have accompanied recent pressure against stocks were largely missing and al- though such reports find little cred- ence in ‘calmer circles of the finan- clal comimunity, their absence was | something of a relief. Last week's gain in steel opera- tions drew considerable comment. Some experts on the industry felt | that the upward trend might not be | so evident when the next reports come out, basing their contention on the ground that production might | again pass requirements for finished | goods, thus pérmitting a slackening | in output. In this connection it was pointed out that the railroads have so far made little or no inquiry | for rails, notwithstanding the fact | that the usual season for this dc-{ mand is now at hand. The automotive industry, important user of steel, is likewise apathetic. One of the trade papers expressed the opinion that produc tion of motor cars this year would probably fall below 4,000,000 units for the first time since 1927 unless | n improvement appear- | Another publication asserted that a large volume of deferred purchases of automobiles had piled up and that manufacturers “Cr“ expecting to reap the benefits of | large replacement orders next year when the business uncertainty should have been allayed.
