CONDITIONS IN BRITAIN
New Zealand Chaplain’s Observations.
Press Association—Copyright. Received 1 p.m. Sydney, This Day.
Rev. G. E. Morton, chaplain to the Mt. Eden Prison, who has arrived at Sydney from London, said that a great advance had been made recently in the treatment of prisoners in Britain. At Maidstone Gaol, where there were many long-sentence men, added Mr. Morton, the buildings outwardly resembled a hospital. There was no armed guard visible, and the grounds were laid out in beautiful gardens. He saw prisoners wearing shirts, collars and ties, and many of them were engaged in printing and other skilled trades.
