U AsKAN STUDIES
SOCIAL CONDITIONS
Lei uard Sugdon, Alaskan au
thority, litterateur and student of
sociology, has opened a new and
novel channel for the studying of
social condition^ as they exist in
the city bastilee.
Our northern authority became a
guest of the Los Angeles city l>as
tile under the number 1S462,
charged with being drunk. When
iiucsticned as to the cause of his
presence in such a place he said
that he had spent several mouths
in u close study of sociological con
ditions, traveling from oue city to
another. I wantoed to know how
such unfortunate people were treat
ed; how they spent their night in
tlit jail, just what conditions they
experienced.
1 simulated drunkeuess. When
the policeman took me t>y the arm
I protested woozlly and had the
delight of bf»ng cent to jail in the
patrcl wagon. He added however
that he had had enough of it;
that he ad come to tq conclusion
that when one investigates a class
ui their own haunt he should be in
their mood, and he regretted very
uuc1} that he was sober and could
not really enter into the true spirit
of the surroundings.
