of paroling er
girla from the
school tb other reformatory in-
stitutions is the souice of moot
criticism, the committee said.
The committee concurred in this
criticism, urged that _ girla ob
parole be recalled and the prac-
tice discontinued and that un-
der no circumstances should girls
be paroled outside the otate.
The committee found Dr. Car-
rie Weaver Smith, supeiintend-
ent, and other officials able and
fit from a theoretical view point,
but said “they fail to . apply
practical methods in the proper
degree.”
“They are to be commended
for tbeir high ideals, but are
subject to criticism when they
attempt to apply to abnormal or
subnormal girla the same meth-
ods which would be proper with
normal girls,” the committee re-
ports. '
“A great effort should be
made to secure the teachers and
officials from within the state
with a view of getting a staff
closely familiar with Texas con-
ditions.
“Instead of inmates of the in-
stitution being mistreated as
has been reported, this commit- /
tee is of the opinion that discip-
line is entirely too slack. Mild
forms of punishment are neces-
sary with normal children and
while severe punishment would
be improper, better results could
undoubtedly be secured with
strict discipline.
“The ease with which escapes
are accomplished convinces the
committee that' the institution
is not operated so as to provide
proper restraint. Many of the
inmates are diseased and are a
menace to society. They should
by all means be so safeguardod
as to make escape practically im-
possible.”
The committee - recommended
that the committing judges and
probation officers should be con-
sulted before paroles axe granted.
Increased facilities are needed
and the committee recommended
the school be enlarged. It io
said a mistake was made la lo-
cating the institution so Tar
'away from the center of the •
state but on account of the in-
vestment at Gainesville it would'
be unwise to change the locu-
tion.
The farm aad ground show
lack of proper care and should
be made nearly aelf-eustolaing
by iateasioe cultivation of the
farm lands. The committee aloe
believes more girls could be
placed in the school
