DISPUTE THAT WOMEN EQUAL MfeN IN CRIME Dmahans Disagree With Judge As To Proportion of Sexes In Law Breaking. Favor Same Penalties. World Herald, Sept. 1.—Omaha men and women generally disagreed with District Judge Robert R. Dickson >f O’Neill, who in sentencing Mrs. Della Dehart to the penitentiary from one to ten years Tuesday for man slaughter, said that he believed women of today are as guilty of as many and varied crimes as men. Mrs. Dehart confessed to aiding her husband in the murder of John Mize at Platte. S. D. Dehart is serving a life sen tence in the penitentiary. The judge added that iif society is to be protected women must be pun ished the same as men, and the Omahans who were asked for com ment generally agreed with him on that point. Bishop Shayler said—“The general principle of the application of law to both sexes admits of no debate, either the moral or civil law. It is grossly illegal for a woman to commit murder, theft, or adultery as for a man and everything else being equal, the ques tion Of sex should in no way result in different legal satisfaction. Far less is the number of women lawbreakers of more sensitive moral nature and of their abhorance of crime, still, there are many mere women guilty of crime that in former *years and perhaps a sentimentality of a pity or the pity of a judge has served to encourage others in criminal deeds and thus increase female offenders. There ^re two great factors which conduce to lawlessness first: class legislation which brought about the French revolution and sec ond, the lack of speedy trials after the commission of crimes.’ Mrs. H. J. Bailey, chairman, second district League of Women Voters— “I would say that judging from the front pages of the newspapers, there are as many women committing crimes today as men. Of course, I don’t suppose statistics would prove the statement, but really I am sur prised to find how many women today are committing crimes.” Mrs. Draper Smith—“I believe that when Women do commit crime they should be punished the same as men, except when they are nursing chil dren or about to become mothers. In those cases, it is not fair to punish the child too. The prison statistics, however, will settle the question as to whether there are as many women law breakers today as men. It isn’t a fact that there are as many. Why, the prisons have twice as many male inmates as female and it isn’t because the women have been accused and ac quitted—they haven’t been accused.” Mrs. George W. Covell, W. C. T. U. leader—“There are more women out in the world today than there used to be, but I can’t agree with the judge (when he says there are as many wo men criminals today as there are n#m. I think anyone who reads the news papers -.will agree with me that the male law violators are in the ma jority.” Dr. Jennie Calif as—“I hadn’t no ticed that there had been as many wo men committing crime today as there have been men, but there have been too many. No, I can’t agree with Judge Dickson that there have been as many, but I do think that when a women commits a crime, she should be punished the same as if she was a nn n.” Henry W. Dunn, Superintendent of Police—“It’s all according to what you want to class as crime. As far as being guilty of vicious crimes, there are not nearly as many women as there are men violators today. Women don’t commit as many major crimes as men.” Dr. Frank G. Smith, Pastor First Central Congregational Church—“My first thought is that the assertion is not so. I have no judicial opinion, however. As a rule, I don’t think wck men are tempted to commit crime as much as men. The penal statistics will verify that. Of course, some sentiment enters into the trial of a woman after she commits a crime, and many times they are acquitted, but as a rule, I believe the women lawbreak edrs are not as great as the men. Up untl recent years, women have been protected more than they are today, but that is still true to such an extent as to have an influence on the ques tion.” rnrs. unarms Hi. jonannes, fresi dent Women’s Club—“I don’t know what to think of it. All I can say is that women never want to place themselves on pedestals, and we Want no special privileges.” Mrs. William Berry, Club Woman— “Women are too big to do some of the things men of today do. Of course, there are a few exceptions to the rule, but generally, I do not think the wo men law violators of today will out number the men. We are the mothers of the nation and through some unex plainable reason, we seem to under stand better than men that we should be good and kind, and obey the law.” Presiding District Judge Troup yes terday agreed with Judge Robert R. Dickson, O’Neill, Neb., who declared women are guilty of as many and as varied crimes as men. “The law is no respecter of . per- j sons,” Judge Troup said “and for that reason Where the law provides a sentence of from one to ten years, the judge is allowed his discretion in the matter of the sentence. Circum stances must be taken into account in sentencing a man or woman. “Women have been found guilty lately of crimes which hitherto have been attributable to men alone. High way robbery was never common among women crooks, neither was burglary, but lately women crooks are committing those crimes nearly as often as men. Judge I^slie evaded the question but said this: “I know from my ex perience with divorces that women can lie as fluently and as often as men.” Judge Goss also side-stepped by saying: “At least women don’t seem to be caught as often as men.” Judge Sears stated: ‘Judge Dick son may b$ right,” but made the fol lowing observations ^rom his experi ence as juvenile and district judge: There is more delinquency among men and boys than among women I and girls. There are more men who desert their families when they are hard pressed for money or domestic troub les than women. There are. more women who wora * harder toward supporting their chil- *• dren than men. There are many scrub * women in this city who are support- ' ing their children because their hus- v bands can’t find work in th£ line of their regular occupations but who _ won’t take some other line of work. There are more cases pf sudden dis appearance among men than among women. ^ There is some perjury in the courts here every day, but the tendency among women to hold back informa tion or to magnify their wrongs seems to be more prevalent than among men. However, if being convicted of fishing without a license can be class ed as “crime,” State Fish and Game Warden Koster calls attention to five women as follows: Mrs. Jennie Shaw, North Platte, $25.40; Mrs. Fred Miller, Norfolk, $8.80; Mrs. Louis Sorenson, Gering, $26.05, and Clara Lucasie, AlfianCt, $27.60. The game warden’s report does not state how many male violators there were, but fines for the entire month totaled $922.15. • FAIR WARNING. “Are you a competent bookkeeper?” “I’ve had twenty years’ experience, si>\” ”1 think you’ll do, but we have a questionnaire for you to fill out, just as a matter of form.” “All right, sir, but I’ll have to tell you in advance that I don’t know where we get most of our sponges.”— Birmingham Age-Herald. grant, velvety Ijg powder that re- gjj moves the shine m so perfectly, and W stays on so long— |j| doesn’t easily nl blow or brush off.
