1 Prison J. 1 (1921)

handle is hein.journals/prsjrnl1 and id is 1 raw text is: THE PRISON JOURNAL DEVOTED TO THE SCIENCE OF PENOLOGY Published Quarterly by THE PENNSYLVANIA PRISON SOCIETY (Organized 1787) 119 South Fourth St., Philadelphia, Pa. This Number (Twenty Cents) Fifty Cents a Year (Application for entry as Second-class Matter will be made at the Post O.fice at Philadelphia) FOREWORD In 1845 the PENNSYLVANIA PRISON SOCIETY began the publication of a quarterly periodical, called the JOURNAL OF PRISON DISCIPLINE AND PHILANTHROPY, which, with slight intermission, was maintained till the end of the year 1861, when, owing to exigencies arising during the Civil War, it was decided to issue an annual number, instead of a quarterly periodical. Under the same name the annual issue has been published almost every year till the year 1920. It is now proposed again to issue a quarterly publication, with the title, THE PRISON JOURNAL, a name directly derived from the former name, though not so ponderous. In this venture we hope to present brief articles, not only by those versed in the science of penology, but also by those who are actively engaged in the adminis- tration of penological institutions. We are not aware, at present, of any periodical which will cover the field which our JOURNAL has occupied, and which it will endeavor to embrace within its scope. From 1911 to 1918 inclusive, our sister association, The New York Prison Association, published The Delinquent, a monthly periodical, which was edited with signal ability. The Journal of the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology is published in Chicago as a bi-monthly, and while often dealing with reformatory measures, is particularly devoted to the legal and technical aspects of crime and its treatment. The Survey often publishes the results of searching in- vestigations of prison conditions and administration, as well as important contribu- tions on the cause and cure of crime. VOLUME 1, No. 1I JANUARY, 1921
