ney-General Nelson b. Gaskill in reply
to a request for an opinion by Superin-
tendent John G. Kalleen, of the State

written the superintendent that it is
very doubtful to him whether in view
of the provisions of the act of the last
Legislature prohibiting contract labor
in penal correctional or reformatory
institutions the indenture of the in
mates Of the State Home for Boys is
legal.
Mr.. Kalleen wrote Mr.. Gaskill that
boys committed to the institution who
have no parents or relatives to whom
they could return when they were
paroled have been in the past placed in
a home with reputable people and ar
rangements have been made with the
party to whom they have been indcn-
tured to pay for services rendered a
stipulated sum each year. The money
to be deposited with the treasurer of

was sorry he was not eligible to MEM
bership in the society and believed II
one of the greatest undertakings he

aims of the society, said there was en-
tirely too much loose talk among peo-
pie generally, and it must have re-
quired considerable courage on the part
of those who formed the society and
for the work that is being done. AS a
Protestant, he said, he respected
the society aims for and the men that
are affiliated with it. Receiving part of
his education in a Catholic institution,
