senators would Paw convIcte

Jefferson City.-The senate commit
tee appointed to solve the convict la
Dor problem after the law which grad
ually abolishes the leasing system
goes into effect recommended that the
state charge a dollar a day for a c
a~ble-bodied convict. Ten per cent OF
the gross earnings of the prison
should go to the prisoners, to be equal
ly divided, in proportion to the time
served, 1t declared. The object is to
give each, when released, enough
money to live on while searching for
employment.
The senate committee is against a
return to the leasing system perma-
nently, but only long enough to try
out suggested ways Of employing the
convicts at least expense to the state.
Probably 1000 convicts are CON
irmed criminals. Only 600 could be
trusted for road work.
Senator Crossley introduced a bill in
the senate after the report was filed
to extend the leasing period to De-
cember 81, 1915. The state is to re-
ceive IS cents a day for each able
bodied convict under the bill. A
fourth Of the convicts are to be re-
served for road work. Machinery is
to be purchased to manufacture school
furniture. The state binding twine
plant is to be maintained.
