Chicago, Aug. 14—Co-operation with released convicts in obtaining employment was urged as the best method of “making crooked men straight” by Rolo M. McBride, superintendent of the Parting of the Ways Home, Pittsburgh, and public defender of the city of Pittsburgh.
Mr. McBride listed four principal causes of crime as women, especially “flappers”; non-enforcement of the Volstead act; narcotics; and revolvers. He asserted pistols are the “most worthless, useless things manufactured today.”
