ENORMOUS INCREASE IN CRIME. Anyone who has studied the American newspapers for the past few months must be forcibly struck with the enormous increase in crime shown in all parts of “The States.” Here we give a few random extract from various journals: "During the period between January 31. 1921, and January 31, 1922, every in stitution in California suffered a large Aicrease in inmates. The population of insane asylums and prisons suffered n’>e of the most marked increases in the history of the State.” —San Francisco Chronicle. “For the first time the State penitentiary at Joliet is < J.ercrowded. Prison officials are planning to relieve the congested conditions by transferring the convicts at the rate - of twenty a day to the new prison at Stateville.” — Chicago Herald and Examiner. “Because of the rapidity with which New York courts are convicting criminals, the capacity of Sing Sing Prison has been overtaxed.” —New York World. “The State of Illinois has decided to build a new kind of prison.” —Christchurch Press. Yet many narrow-minded, near-sight-ed individuals want to convince us that Prohibition closes the gaols. Are these facts quoted convincing? Then, Vote Continuance. 11.
