The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-05-19

of 1880 (page 8 notes the "abomln- able practice prevailing of contractors fleeing both officers and convicts, and states further that this practice IS utterly subsersive of discipline, puts those who pay and those who receive the bribe in the power of each other and makes the contractor the master of the prison" These evils have been only partially remedied by placing the officers on the state salary list and 1t is still to the credit of every prison official who is working under the state in a prison where the contract system. exists who resists the tempta- ton to become subservient to the in- dustrial interests that have invaded the prison, either through fear that his position may be endangered Dy charges against his conduct or ability as an administrative officer, or by di- rect temptation to increase his pit tance of a salary by participation in the large profits of business which is ever under his eye and in which he is refused a right to participate.
 Trades May Be Acquired.
 While making no charge of inhu- man conduct toward persons 1ncar- cerated in the prison, it may be we'll to point out that even the early ad- state of Connecticut held it unwise to have the trades so limited that the prisoners could not be trained in enough lines to assure them jobs upon release in the same occupations. From 1926 for some 50 years large number of occupations were conduct ed at the prison at Wethersfield and through this time these industries showed yearly profit of several thousand dollars, net to the state, with the exception of five years when a small loss was sustained apparently through the lessening of the number of occupations and the centering them on the manufacture of shoes. Against this should be noted that from 1880 to 1895 when shoes alone were manu- factured, the net of the prison to the state increased rapidly till it stood at over $25,000 a year, at which time a short contract was added to the shoe contract and the increase of loss ran stationery for the next ten years the statistics of the last five years are not available, but these facts would seem to show that the present scheme of limiting the work of the prisons to one or two industries has not been profitable to the state of Connecticut, and this after an experience, in all, of about S5 years.
 Substitute Suggested.
 We have shown the dangers exist ing in the contract system, whether day work or piece price, the dangers to manufacturers and labor of Connec- ticut, and pointed out that it tends to destroy prison discipline and deprives the prisoner by its concentration of industry of the opportunity to secure a proper industrial training which
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-05-19

will fit him for useful work after re- lease. What do we suggest as sub- st1tute? The Meltzler bill substitutes the state use system for the contract system in the state prison. What does this mean? It means that the employed in misunderstanding those articles which the state, the subdivi- s1ons of the state and charitable in- st1tut1ons of the same are today buy
 ing in large part in New York City rom manufacturers who have their establishments all over the country. It holds that the legislature of the state of Connecticut has by it's acts directly created a market for certain types of goods in regard to which it has made certain specific regula ations and for the buying of which it yearly appropriates large sums of money. The need for the goods is not part of the natural market but is one arti- fcially created by the legislature it. self; by it's acts providing for the care of its aged and infrm, sick and in sane, dependent and delinquent classes, it's bureaus of inspection, po- lice and protection. The bill further provides that the prison authorities may in their discretion manufacture such of these articles as will best serve toward the development of the prisoner in his learning of a specific trade and make him useful upon re- lease both to himself and the com- munity. The administrative regula- tions necessary for carrying this mat ter into effect are left to the Board of Prison Commissioners on the theory that they alone will be able to adequately recommend those meas ures which will make possible the ef- fcient carrying out of the proposals. It has also been pointed out that as the present shoe contract does not mature for several years, these recommends tions may be made to your next legis- lature by the Prison Commission, without any danger of causing idle ness or unnecessary delay ./ It has further been pointed out that in the matter of the shirt contract at pres ent being conducted under the piece price plan, that should this contract mature before the next legislature, the prison commissioners will find that the amount of shirts and other clothing manufactured on sewing ma chimes similar to those at present in stalled in the prison are bought each year by the state charitable inStitu- tions as will keep the present 120 men employed in the shirt shop continually busy and that amongst the prisoners incarcerated in the institution at the present time there are, according to the records of the institution, suffi- cient trained cutters and machlnlStS to act as foremen and run this shop.
 New Board Necessary.
 To perfect the system of state use it will be necessary for the prison com mission to supplement at the next legislature the Meltzler bill with bill calling for the establishment of Board of Classification, similar to the one which has prevailed for fifteen years in New Y York state and similar to the one that has been established this year by the legislature of Cali
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-05-19

fornia, Missouri and New Jersey. This Board of Classification having power to designate what articles shall be manufactured in the prisons and what articles bought outside, regulate the prices, quality of the goods and act as general clearing house. It may not be out of place in this connection to point out that the cost of main tenance of such bureau is saved many times over by the saving to the state of the cost of the middleman in connection with its purchases, besides regulating the manufacture in the state institutions this board shall also provide as to the number of prisoners that should be worked upon the state farm and should be drafted for the contraction of roads and the price at which the prison department should allow the prisoners to be so worked It should further provide for such wage for the prisoners as has been found expedient by contractors and state officials to increase the interest of the convicts in their work and through their savings provide for the maintenance of their wives and chil- dren and make unnecessary the pres ent burden upon the state, not only to maintain the dependents through the period of the prisoners incarceration, but also make unnecessary the chari- table contribution which is at present made by the state for clothing and other necessaries upon the prisoners release.
 Officials Embarrassed.
 Such a constructive program of re- form is not only possible but Is de- sirable. not only because of the need of the prisoner, not only for the sake of the prison official, not only for the protection of Connecticuts industries and labor, but to ensure that econo- mic administration of the charitable and penal departments of the state as will lessen the tax-rate and prove tO the voter that a government efficiency is possible.

GROUND BROKEN FOR
LARGE TABERNACLE
CHRISTIAN CHURCH TO ERECT
TEMPORARY STRUCTURE
FOR REVIVAL MEETINGS

The Christian church broke ground
today for the erection of large
tabernacle to be located on lots own
ed by it at the corner of Eighth
street and Maine avenue. The build
ing will be in the nature of a tempo
rary structure and is being erected
primarily for use during an evangel-
istic meeting that IS to be held by
this congregation following the union
meeting now in progress at the Bap-
tist church. This meeting viii be
conducted by an evangelistic COM
pany of four, of which Evangelist J.
v. Coombs, of Illinois, is at the head.
1t will begin the first or second Sun
day in August, depending upon the
length of the present meeting. The
new tabernacle will be such a
structure as to enable the congre-
cation to use it for a place of wor-
ship for year or two until perma-
nent church may be built.
