Prison Labor
Report Soon
Iowa Legislative Committee
Queries Charge Convicts’
Work Too Cheap.
By Associated Frees.
Ues Moines, la., Jan. 23.—A report
hy the joint sub-committee, named
to investigate the equality of return
upon prison labor and free labor,
under the prison industry system
worked out by the state board of con
trol, probably will not be made until
late this week or next week, mem
bers of the committee Indicated to
day.
The committee is charged with de
ciding whether the state is receiving
enough from the products of prison
labor to set the prison Industries out
side the realm of unfair competition
with free labor. Should the commit
tee decide the state was not receiv
ing as much as it should, contracts
now existing tjndoubtedly will be can
celled and the legislature will be
tailed upon to revise the prison law.
State Board Investigating.
Senators Hale and Campbell and
Representatives Williams, Vincent
and Rhlnehart are members of the
subcommittee. The state board of
control also Is Investigating and has
expressed a willingness to terminate
all contracts found to be unduly fa
vorable to the concerns with which
they were made.
A. M. McColl, a member of the
board, recently told committees that
these qontraots were considered ad
vantageous to the state when they
p were entered into. Somo recent crit
icism of the board was that the prod
ucts did not net the stale as much
as would similar articles manufac
tured by free labor and marketed by
a private concern.
Law Would Specify.
Should the matter come before
the legislature it is probable that the
type of industry and the rate of re
turn would be gone into and speci
fied in the law. Such a bill might
also provide for a stipulated wage to
be paid the prisoners.
The board of control now takes the
stand that it is not required by law
to pay prisoners anything for their
work and that if it desires to pay
them at ail, it can pay them any
thing It wishes. The average return
to the state on the work of each
prisoner at Anamosa is approxi
mately $20 per month. The average
wage paid prisoners is blightly under
S6, although some, by overtime work,
earn for themselves, considerably
larger sums.

His Girl Calls Him Names
He Can’t Marry on Account of Mother—Girl Upset,
Quarrels—Should Part.
—
By MARTHA ALLEN.
MY girl called ine a crabby old
woman-hater the other day just
because I am not Interested in
marriage," writes Jack. “Now 1 do
care for her. but I have to support
my mother, so what am I to do? Is
it fair for her to treat roe in this
way?"
Well, Jack, both of you seem to
have been playing an unfair game.
Your girl ought to realize the circum
stances that prevent a marriage and
you ought not to be going with one
certain girl as long as you know that
you are not free. Why not play a
lone hand until you are In a position
to think of a partnership? Of course,
It is unfortunate that you care for
each other and have reached the point
of quarreling about marriage . You
should have faced the music before
your regard liecame such a serious
issue. I blame you more than the
girl. You knew that you couldn't
marry as long as It was necessary to
support your mother, so why did you
encourage the girl? I'll grant that
the girl was foolish not to break with
you when she learned that It was im
possible for you to marry for a good
many years, but then, she might be
excused upon the belief of some that
girls are more weak emotionally than
men.
It Is too bad that you care so much
for each other now but It would be

advisable to call a halt right where
you are. Be square and tell the gill
In very plain language that you must
not see her any more. At all.
Perhaps after you have done all In
your power for your mother, you and
this girl ran marry. Until that time
arrives, It would be well for each to
go your own way. It Is only making
matters worse by continuing the love
affair and going through a constant

be happier If you would look at the
situation more sanely. Try it.

torney to get a dlvnrra on the Rronnil
of desertion. When nlle refuser she In
told the alternnative will he an action In
which she will he eharRed with Immoral

from whom she received attention while

father, Stephen Dalian. In New York, she
indignantly denier wrongdoing and de
clarer rile will fight. Stephen tr derirnur
of freedom no that he mav marry Helen

Stella, under advice nf her attorney, to
mime Mm. Morrison as corespondent In a
counteraction he trllr the latter marriage

view with Mrs. Morri-on no.I offers lo
get a divorce If she will marry Stephen,
take laurel and Rive I lie girl good social
'-landing. The offer Is gladly accepted
tint I.aurel refuser to leave Iter muflier
after her father marries Mrs. Moniron.
(Continued from Y'eaterday.) J
It was easier than she had sup
IKised. Laurel's hostility to Ld was
so white-hot that even a reference
to him kindled a controversy. There
fore Stella referred to him frequent
ly in a light and Inconsequential vein,
laughing iit Laurel's opposition. Not
only did she refer to Ld, but she saw
him; she made engagements with
him; she kept engagements with him:
she stayed out with him until after
1 o’clock on one occasion; fulled to
appear for supper, or to telephone,
on another. One afternoon, defiantly,
she established Ed in an armchair In
the living room of the apartment, and
arranged that Laurel, due home from
downtown, should find him when she
came In. She repeated thiH a week
later. Oh, it was too liad. She hated
to watch the slow torture her pro
eedure was to the child. But It
couldn’t he avoided. Somehow she
must make her marriage to Ed seetn
logical.
Laurel's light laughter faded, dls
appeared;the soft light In her eyes
hardened like a disillusioned lover's.
Night after night she lay, on the
extreme edge of the heel, beside her
mother, silent and unrelenting, and
drifted into an unrefreshing sleep.
She grew years older.
One afternoon In early June, after
a particularly difficult morning of
argument with her mother about Al
fred Munn (afterwards Stella had
called goodby to Lollle out of the
front window, hut she wouldn’t an
swer), she returned to the apart
ment lo find it empty. There was a
note fastened to the handle of the
oven door on the gas stove In the
kitchen. Laurel discovered It when
she went out to get some supper.
Dear Lollie (the note said):
I guess you won't he much sur
prised. I guess you’ve sort of seen
the way the wind was blowing. Ed
has wanted me to marry him for
years, and as I had’nt any good rea
son not to now. I'll be Mrs. Alfred
Munn when you read this. I would
of told you all about It, but I know
how you felt about poor Ed, and it
would only of meant more fuss.
Ed's got a giand Job down In
South America, and he'd crazy to
have me go down there with him.
You know 1 never had much of a
rhance to travel, and It seems a big
chance for me. So I'm jumping at
it. We may be gone a year or two.
I'll send you an address when we
Ret one.
I've had this up by sleeve quite
a long while, marrying Ed. I mean.
You can’t explain everything to a
child. That was why I hoped you’d
stay with your father. But when
you didn't, of course, 1 had to keep
my promise to Ed Just the same. It
wouldn't of been fair if I didn't, and
he wouldn't listen to anything else.
He's been w aitlng for me all the time
you've been growing up, and I won't
say' I haven’t been waiting, too. I’ve
tried my best to make you see Ed the
way 1 do. these last weeks, hut you
Just won't, so I've given up trying,
and gone ahead and done what I
think is right.
Ed and I will he back and close up
the apartment sometime liefore we
sail. I guess we all three can tit In
somehow. I expect you to be nice
to him though, now he's your sort
of father.
When you're out, leave the key un
der the mat. same as usual. Ed and
1 may be back any time. Love from
YOUR MOTHER.
R. 8.—It was too bad you wouldn’t
turn round this morning and wave
goodby.
Stephen and Helen, returning late
from town the next evening to their
Rinnmer home on Long Island (they
had Just moved down), were surprised
upon entering the hall to hear a
sound In the living room—u chair sud
denly shoved back, soft swift foot
steps. They stepped to the door of
tho room.
It was Laurel! She still wore her
hoi. Her suitcase still stood by the
chair where she had been sitting.
"Why, Laurel! Why, my dear,”
exclaimed Stephen, exclaimed Helen,
both hastening toward her.
They met her In the middle pf the
room. They kissed her—both of
them. She returned neither caress.
"What Is It, Laurel?”
She was very white. Her eyes had
a startled, frightened expression.
"I've come back," she said quietly.
"I'll stay, now, if you want me—if
you'll take me.” She made no ges
ture, her expression did not change.
There was fixed calmness about her
as hard as adamant.
"What has happened, Laurel?"
"I've been put out. I've no other
place to go but here. If you don't
want me—If—”
"You know we want you!” ex
claimed Helen. “Dear child! Come.
Sit down. You're tired. You've had
a long journey. Why, you haven’t
even taken off your hat."
Laurel remarked, not moving, mak
ing no sign of response, "Mother has
married," and after a pause, "Mother
has married." It was like the wail
Ing of a tolling bell
Stephen said. “Oh!"
Helen said, "I shall take off your
hat myself. ' And quickly, deftly, she
removed the small toque and laid it
aside on a table, laurel standing list
less and indifferent beneath her »d
ministering hands. "There! That's
better. Why, you must have been
waiting a long time," lightly she went
on. “You ought to have telephoned
when you reached New York."
"She's married Alfred Munn. fath
