Book Description
Excerpt from Report of the Delegates of the United States: To the Fifth International Prison Congress Held at Paris, France, in July, 1895 Sir: I have the honor to lay before yon, with a view to its consideration by the Congress, the report of the delegates of the United States to the Fifth International Prison Congress, which was held at Paris, France, in July, 1895. It presents a comprehensive statement of all that transpired on that occasion and contains much valuable information that might profitably be considered with a view to the alleviation of certain phases of human misery without sacrificing any of the absolute prerequisites to or guaranties of social order. In connection with this report Gen. R. Brinkerhoff, president of the American delegation, has submitted to the Department, under date of the 19th instant, a request from the International Prison Commission, which is the executive and permanent arm of the Congress, that the Government of the United States be represented by a delegate in its organization. Although this Government suggested and founded the International Prison Congress, it does not contribute anything toward its expense and has never had a representative on the permanent Commission. Even the delegates from this country, who have been commissioned by this Department and who have attended the quinquennial meetings of the Congress, have uniformly borne their own expenses, with the single exception of the late Dr. E. C. Wines, for the payment of whose expenses Congress made provision. The subscription to the International Prison Commission is based upon the population of the countries represented, being $5 per 1,000,000 inhabitants. Assuming the population of the United States to be 65,000,000, the annual subscription would be but $325, or $1,625 for the five years. The money thus received by the International Commission is expended in the publication of monographs, bulletins, reports, and the proceedings of the International Prison Congress, which are sent to the Governments in proportion to their subscriptions.
