Out of this' *,efory .of Beatles have sprang upall the alienations of territory, leasesspheres of influence and the acqui¬sition of monopolistic rights by for-eijrn nations in China.The Chinese argument for confer¬

PARDONED MANRAPS ABUSES ATD.C. WORKHOUSE

Former Policeman StarrSays New Regime Dif-

. ferent From Foster's.

Henry Arthur 8tarr. former po¬liceman. who wa> sent to the Dis¬trict workhouse »t Occoquaa. Va..or. October r». 1M».- to t-we

jreara on charges of embexalementwii pardoned yesterday by Presi¬dent Harding and releaaed from theinstitution.

Starr visited the office of TheWashington Herald last night andIn behalf of the other prisoners'atthe workhouse lodged a complaintabout the alleged backward meth-oda in vogue there.

"Since former SuperintendentCharles C. Koitor left." Starr de¬clared. "the workhoui-e has gone topieces as far as morale is con¬cerned I have served nearly fif¬teen months out of my two-yearsentence, and I have been In a po¬sition to notice a great change atthe workhouse since the new man¬agement took charge. Mr. Fosterbelieved in trying to make a mansee the light.not by force or 111treatment, but by teaching him hisduty to society and his fellow manand setting an example himself."Ever since the new superintend¬

ent, William H. Mover. tookcharge." Starr declared, "the plare.as far as doing any real good tothe prisoners is concerned, hasgone to rack and ruin. Poor food,brutality, carelessness Indifferenceand abuse from guards, all help tomake a prisoner worse when hegoes out than when he came in."I do not believe." Starr declared."It is an exaggeration to say thatas compared to the Foster regime,the workhouse now might Just aswell be a prison of the MiddleAges, where brute fierce and ig¬norance governed prisoners."This business of forever damn¬ing a man because he has gonewrong once is not at all calculatedto do anybody any good. In thelanguage of the prisoners now atthe w ork house, 'the plica has goneto Hades' and probably will con¬tinue In that direction until some¬body higher up becomes informedand changes things."For my part." Starr stated. "P»

on the straight rofcd from now onI have had my medicine and dwa'tlike it a bit. But I do believe-even if I were a Jailbird.thatthere Is a right and wro^g way totreat a lawbreaker 4f iswbreaklngis to be stopped or at le&at keptdown to a minimum."
