Klein LENIENCY AND CRIME In the treatment of convicted criminals, the cen- ry anda half since Beccaria has witnessed a gen- al abandonment of brutality and neglect, in favor, milder punshment and greater consderation. [is general tendency has met with universal ap- -oval, and it was in ine therewith that Michigan id several other progressive states elected to ex- ude the death sentence from their perial codes. odern theorists in criminology have ventured to stulate a general principle of leniency as the most fective stimulus to reform, and humane adminis- aators have consented to the inauguration 'of ison systems based thereon, with varying results. I view of the extraordinary prevalence of criminal tivity at the present time, both outside and inside prisons, the question is being asked whether ab- ice of the death penalty for capital offenses, and ro ready leniency to lesser criminals, may not be :trimnental to the eradication of crime, rather than nducive to it. Reliable authorities, whose judgment is based on ng experience and study, assert that the principle leniency cannot be justified without qualification, uply on the grounds of the popular trend toward imane treatment, which is the natural corollary the advancement of civilization. The gruesome fects of misguided leniency to convicted crim- als are cited to show that the leniency theory s serious defects in practice, just as had the Ier policy of severity, when injudiciously ap- ed. In the present crime wave, which is a re- uidescence of earlier-day lawlessness growing out' the recent war, the existence of the death pen- :y is believed to act as an important check upon e more reckless or desperate, and its universal option, for the time at least, is believed- to rec- amend itself as the lesser of evils. Authorities point out that neither severity nor liency can be regarded as a uniformly applicable medy for crime. Circumstances and mo)tives ist be weighed in every case, and the careful, mpetent prescriptioh of justice, with its compe- it administration by prison and probation of- ials, alone can prove effective. Any other course 11 not inculcate in the criminal a real respect for. ht, which is regarded as the primary requisite r any stimulation to permanent reform. More- er, it is pointed out that reform of the criminal not the primary concern of criminal law and ial institutions, and that much miscarriage of tice results from the mistaken emphasis laid :n this feature, highly desirable though it is, >ealing to men's highest sentiments. Law and its administration have three distinct ects: firstly, the protection of law-abiding peo- tfrom the criminally disposed; secondly, the Atection of innocent persons from unjust con- nnation; thirdly, the impositon of just punish- !nt in those guilty of crime, supplemented by lcation and assistance, to the end that the erst- while criminal may bevcorrected and retrieved, for his own and society's good. Let severity or len- iency be justly and competently applied, with these stern objects kept in mind in the obvious order of their relative importance. WE HEREBY RESOLVE Church bells chimed, fire bells clanged, automo- bile horns tooted and shrieked and howled, fac- tory sirens added their discordant notes, and all about men and women laughed and shouted and chered. It was the modern way of ushering in the New Year, and as the fast moving sands of time reached midnight, men resolved that they would be better this year, better mentally, morally, physically -- just as they might do in Utopia. But was there ever a New Year's celebration without its resolutions, its vows made by mortals who kept to their oaths only as long as the novelty and newness lasted and then -? So, with this some- what cynical realization to guide us, we propose the following resolutions: To study only for blue books or finals, or, if the situation is serous enough, for both; to buy no more cigarettes, because the other fellow ought to carry them about with him; to schedule no more eight o'clocks; to read the other fellow's Daily, it's cheaper; to see more of the boulevard this spring; to attend the J-Hop, even if your roommate must stay at home because his formal outfit fits you; to - and - and so forth. "And that's about all one man can do." COLLEGE REPUTATIONS "The deeds of our lives are as grass; the wind passes over them and they are gone." Such is the destiny of the acts of most of us - fadng mem- ory, occasional recollection, and then oblivion. Not even the evil that men do lives after them for long. Thus the sad alumnus, returning to his alma ma- ter after a decade of enforced exile, may muse to himself. There is no memory of the campus great of ten years gone by in the minds of the present generation of students. Football player, editor of The Daily, President of the Union, Mich- igamua - their fame is dim no matter what they were. It may seem a strange thing that those who walk the campus now and judge all men by what they do on that same campus, ordinarily judge the graduate not by what he has done here but by what he is doing in the world of affairs. But it is ludricrous to ask that what a man does during his college career should make him immor- tal, or even cause his memory to be revered for long. He works for temporary reputation, for the value of meeting his fellows, for the experi- ence which comes from doing the work of the campus, for the good of a campus which must have that work done. Taken by and large, the experience the activi- ties man gets is of far more use to him than any puny fame would be even though it should be lasting. College is an anteroom to life. If he can prepare himself ,in this anteroom, to succeed in the actual work of the outside world, what more should he ask? It is a right and proper thing that college reputations face and die. Judging from the value of German money and the rate at which it is being issued, printing prices must be very reasonable in the Fatherland.
