It urges a new wing at London Prison Farm, a Mansfield Reformatory dormitory, a Lancaster Industrial School cottage, a Bureau of Classification, more parole officers, and safety upgrades. Future items include official prison classification and open London Prison Farm, with indeterminate sentences or flexible terms and a receiving department at the Penitentiary.

Noise and Its Effect on Human Efficiency
A report from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that noise in workplaces lowers efficiency. In a factory, moving a work area away from a loud boiler increased instrument output by 5 percent and reduced rejections from 7 to 3 percent. In an insurance office, reducing sound from 45 to 95 decibels raised output 12 percent. Telephone operators cut noise from 50 to 35 decibels lowered errors by 42 percent, saving 3 cents per message. The study concludes intermittent noises harm productivity and that quieting environments boosts performance.
