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.
