Dr. Wines remarked, “I am not an anti-penologist, have no opinions to
enforce. In the United States census there is opportunity to examine
all the matter concerning prisoners. Each prison and reformatory was
furnished with a complete case, to study fully before reply, and if the
wardens also help give it, a more correct record can be made, and the
Government take up all the matter, furnish the apparatus and the men to
do the work.”
Mrs. Deborah C. Leeds suggested a vote of recommendation of the
Congress, that a “woman’s prison or reformatory” be established in
every State, passed.
