Crain Fears for Morals Of Young Girl in Business Eighteen hundred Brooklyn Masons heard Judge Frederick E. Crane of the Court of Appeals make a plea last night for a change In the criminal law whereby a convicted criminal who has shot down the breadwinner of a family would be put to work under a system of "compulsory restitution" to pay back in some measure the damage he has caused. The occasion for Judge Crane's remarks was a testimonial dinner and reception by Brooklyn Masons to Grand Master John A. Dutton of the Masons of the State of New York, held at the Hotel Astor, Man-hattan. Every branch of the Masonic order was represented at the dinner, which marked the first time that the three Masonic districts ot Booklyn have united to honor the presiding head of the craft in the State.

Judge Crane hit directly at the law as regards the treatment of prisoners and declared that "it is about time we put some sense In It." Law Has Not Progressed. "I am thinking of the man who goes out here on 5th enters a shop and shoots down the proprietor, who is probably the breadwinner of a family. What do we do with him when he's caught? Just the same as we have done for the past 2,000 years. We take this great hulk, as he is in many cases, and put him behind gray bars, where he does little or no work. "I am In favor of a system of compulsory restitution whereby the man who has caused the lass would be made to pay back In some measure the damage he has done." Judge Crane, whose address was a plea to Masons to carry on the traditions of Masonry, called on the members of the order to continue the fight against bigotry and preju dice "so that there can be respect for all men throughout the world." He urged renewed efforts for world peace on the part of Masons and declared that the "law of reason must govern nations as the rule of reason governs our States." FIGHT SEWER TAX IN BENS0NH1ST L.

Dr. Lyons con tinued, "that these Christians need to be converted to Christianity themselves. The best way for the Jew to respond to the efforts, to convert him is not to get angry, not to retaliate, but try to convert mem bers of his race to Judaism." Dr.

Lyons pointed out that in Judaism people of his race can find all the inspiration they need and he deplored the fact that cer tain elements among Jewry turn to Christian Scirnce. which, ho as serted. is neither Christian nor scientific.
