C. Young, the Rev. Father William A. Fleming, chaplain of San Quentin Prison, declared that prohibition is "3 miserable failure" and is crowding jails and prisons. Excerpts from his report fellow: ; : "The crime wave. that is sweeping the length and breadth of the lan at the present time has given food for serious thought to those who have the interest of the future wel- fare of our citizenry at heart." "Some have tried to legislate mor- ality into the people. We 'were told some years ago that with the advent of strict legislation on one of our great moral problems, poverty, crime and jails would disappear." "Unfortunately, the opposite is the result. Poverty is still with wus. Crime is increasing. And .our jails are filled and new ones being built." "That social experiment has been, in: regard to crime, a miserable fail- ure."
