TION WORK TO AID FIRST OFFENDERS Believes Police Should Co- aperate in Keeping People Out of Jail | Toronto, Jan, 23.---Legslation | extending proovation work with a view to giving the frst offender every possiblé assistance in ve-- forming was forecast last night by Attorney-General W, H. Price in an address at the annual dinner of the Big Brothers at the Ford Hotel, Hon, Mr. Price declared that it was his own view that many first offenders should not even be con- vieted, so' that no stigma would hinder them subsequently, bl would make the first offence a non offence," he sald, "Not in every case but in the majority of cases where the offence is not serious," "The Government has certain plans in mind that I am not at Jih- erty to divulge hecause of the nears ness of the Legislature's session, We have certain plans, which, if they work out, will improve things very much, I have had a number of conferences with our mag. trates throughout the province and with our police force officials." Probation, he declared, was the : hig question in the province today. He advocated an extension of this work so that it would cover even men and women who had served their sentences. A probation offi- cer should meet discharged con- victs at the prison gate, help them find positions and re-establish themselves, he believed. Results in Wrecked Homes Col. Price was convinced that the imprisonment of a father or mother frequently wrecked a home and resulted eventually in the Big Brothers having the children tv care for. "Therefore, T say, stop sending people to jail unless it is absolute- ly essential for the erime they have committed. Have some kind of a dividing line, the same as the old dvision, hetween misdemeanors and offences." Co-operation of the police in ala TIME TABLES | CPR. TIME FABLE, New Sched i Sunday.

"I believe that eventually the police services of our province will be probably in closer touch than ever 'with the probation worker. So that, if it is necessary to apprehend any father or mother, I say to you that while it may be a radical departure from what we have hitherto had, would it not be much better to have vue of our police constables go to the home, ascertain the situation, rath- er than take such persons to cells and have them tried? "I am certain that if something of that nature were done--dealing with the home as an integral unit --it would not only help the girls and boys but it would help the state and the community." Col. Price advocated the appre- hension of a larger number of of- fenders by summons instead of by arrest, "Arrest should be ap- proached from theb asis of whether the crime is merely a trivial of- fence and how "it will 'affect the home."
