Ninety-five per cent successâ€"if success can be measured in terms of the restoration of respectable citizenship of oil‘enders against 50- cietyâ€"this is the record of the adult probation department in Toronto at the end of the first year of exist- ence, says Marjorie Bradford, B. 80., Social Service Council of Canada. _ A glance at the system as it is' working there should give ample encouragement alike to wary legis- lators pledged to guard the interests of their people, to social workers who know only too well the evil days that come upon the family de- prived of its breadwinner. and to harassed officers of the law, per- plexed by the constant spectre of recidivism and the frequent futilit‘yl' of a prison sentence to reâ€"establis the offender in society“ During \I--‘â€"v 19§3 436 offenders were placed on probation. Of these, only 4.81 per THE RIGHT am) or JUSTICE cent roved a failure and reap- pear in court as “repeaters,” a record that speaks well for the ex- cellent investigation work that is being done in connection with the probational work. This work is accomplished by the joint activities of a medical doctor who is also a psychiatrist and two trained social investigators. mm The annual cost of caring for a probationer in Toronto has been estimated at $2836. A conservative estimate of the cost of keeping him in custody for that period would be at least $300. Add to this the conservative estimate of $400 as his earning power, and .it is readily seen what an economic saving to a province its probation system may become. It is noteworthy too that the 436 probationers had 425 persons Ldirectly dependent upon them, though‘two-thirds of them were un- der 25 years of age. Its economic value can be calcu- lated as also, its success in per- manently rehabilitating men and women in society, but it would be difflcult to estimate the effect of a probation system upon the morale of the peOple it serves. “Probation." says Judge Mott, “at the same time preserves the self-respect of the of- fender and that of his wife and de- pendents. Self-respect is one of the most potent factors in an individual to assist in reclaiming him to soâ€" ciety and should be capitalized to the utmost." The movement to establish proba- tion is growing rapidly on this ron- tinent. and from the highest author- ities is receiving the recognition it deserves. An excerpt from a recent address of President Coolidge before an Assembly of probation workers is very quotable: “To save whatever good there is in men for themselves and for so- ciety is not a sentimental doctrine. It is one that is founded on the sound administration of Justice. Justice does not require the do- struction of that which is good. It requires the destruction of that which is mi]; and Justice requires as strongly the saving of that which is good as it does the destruction of that which is evil. The work that you do is the saving of that which is good in the individual, along with the correction of that which is evil. You are doing some of the most important work that is being done; you are the right hand of the admin- .istration of Justice." MIMI“! WBMAN REGAINS HEAL“?
