| Summary | "The Delinquent (Vol. IV, No. 1), January, 1914" by Various is a monthly periodical published by the National Prisoners’ Aid Association, likely during the early 20th century. This publication focuses on various aspects of delinquency and prison reform, presenting discussions on the penal system, societal impacts of crime, and the treatment of offenders. It acts as a platform for contributing authors to share insights and opinions on critical issues relating to the criminal justice system. In this particular issue, notable articles include a provocative defense of corporal punishment in Delaware by Governor Charles R. Miller, who argues for the efficacy of the whipping post as a deterrent to crime, and a critical examination of the Texas prison system's management and financial issues by Tom Finty Jr. Additionally, the periodical explores broader themes of prison reform across different states, outlining legislative changes and public attitudes towards the treatment of prisoners. The discussions reflect a broader societal concern with balancing punishment and reform, presenting a snapshot of the era's attitudes towards crime and rehabilitation.
