STUDY OF CRIME
AMERICAN COUNT’S DECISION. SERVICES OF PSYCHOLOGISTS. New York, May 24. The Court of General Sessions, which is the oldest and largest criminal court in North America, has decided to adopt the services of psychologists and psychiatrists to aid in dealing with criminals. Nine judges comprising the Court asked for 89,000 dollars under the law recently passed by the Legislature and effective in July for the purpose of maintaining a clinic where criminals will be studied before being sentenced. The proposed clinic is in line with the recommendation of Governor Smith.—Australian Press Association.
