Abstract

This paper is prepared from the view point of a board whose experience has been with convicted felons; the men who are left after the juries have given the accused the benefit of all doubt, and sent only those found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of the heinous crimes, and the judges have sifted out and given fines and jail sentences where they thought such sufficient, and suspended sentence in many cases of first offenders.
