COMMITTEE
 ID IGNORE LETTER .OF EN|MET O'NEAL
Several of Legislative Prob CTS Arrived Last Night. Others Expected to
 Arrive Today

The letter of Emmet O'Neal, severe ly criticizing the legislative investigat- ing committee for having sent its agent to Florence for the purpose of acquiring certain information regard ing the former governors private busi- ness. will remain unanswered.
 Henry P. Merritt of Macon. to whom as chairman of the committee the com n.unication was addressed. declared last night that he would not answer the letter He did not discuss the mat ter further
 MT. Merritt. George Smith of Cren- shaw. John Ward of Henry and John Mccain of Clay reached Birmingham sast night They will be joined by other members of the Investigating committee today and will go into con- sultation with members of the recess committees on finance and Judiciary The meetings will last for several days, it is understood. On Friday and Sat urday according to the plans, the en- tire membership of the three commit tres will be in session,
 MT. Merritt said last night that tho committees would meet for the purpose of consulting on the work which the three have accomplished during the recess. The reports of the three and the bills to be recommended by them are about completed and it will be to these matters that the committee will address themselves.
 It is generally believed throughout Alabama that while in Birmingham the members of the several commit tees will enter Into an agreement to stand by the three reports and thus in great part guarantee their adop- tion. One of the kinks to be worked out. it is said, Is the rather sharp dis agreement which has shattered tho ranks of the judiciary committee. Tho report of the committee on finance and taxation win be unanimous
 The visiting solons are reticent when questioned regarding the subject mat ter of their reports and profess to be ignorant of what will probably be the feature of the legislative session to be resumed July 13 It Is generally known, however, that while in Bir- mlngham they will have the assist nnce of the prohibition lobby and it is believed that before they depart they will have been made aware of the prearranged programme.

COMMITTEE WILL STRIKE POPULAR CHORD WHEN IT RECOMMENDS THE
 ENDORSEMENT OF LEASE SYSTEM
Members of Probe Committee Preparing to Strike Fatal Blow Al Leasing of Convics For Work In Mines. Denson and Smith Study Georgia System
 and Are Very Much Impressed

q have worked for many years in an honest effort to solve this problem, he said As a matter of fact the op- portunity offered to be of service in re- lieving the burden of the unfortunate criminal was the chief induoement that led to my candidacy for the legislature. There is no denial of the fact that in many respects the lease system smacks of the barbarous. Even when the eon- victs are assigned to good bosses, they have a terrible time in making tasks which are too onerous, but often the case Is that the bosses are bad
 Discredits Revenue Theory
 Many people have hesitated to take ac- tion against the lease system on the theory that it produced large revenue for the use of an impoverished state, that the state without that revenue would De- come bankrupt. w. c. Davis, who repre- sents Walker county in the legislature, puts little store In that theory. Mi Davis, as Is remembered. has alreaoy introduced bill provided for const'tu- tional amendment under which the lease system would be abolished January 19l7
 MT. Davis recently compiled figures to prove that the system was not as remu- nerative as many have been led to be- ieve. "It Is a mistaken idea" he said last night. that as a result of leasing its convicts Alabama each year ears N,oovooo' There is no question but that large amount of money is received, but In sup port of the department, it Ia quickly liquidated. It Is probable that Alabama by abolshing the lease system would lose not mora money each year than SDo"n' The work of the convicts on the roads of the state would be far more valuable than the net money which the state re- ceives in return for their labor"
 The system is obsolete and, contrary to the general impression, Is not the ex- pression of good economies. the legsla- ture says. and as result, it will go As stated in the beginning, the recess committee on investigation will take the lead I nthe open fight against the sys- tenn. The indications are that it will not be vigorously defended.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-06-29

The legislative recess committee on investigation will strike popular chord when it recommends the aboii- ton of the convict lease system.
 While the members of the committee will not make known their report or any part thereof prior to the recon vening of the legislature, it is learned on good authority that they will strike the first fatal blow at system of which the people have made lament for many years
 The committee when In session in Bir
 mingham some weeks ago. investigated very carefully Alabama's plan of halid- Hing it's convicts, and the verdict was that the system Is inhumane, and that
 the only possible excuse that could be offered for it's continuation was the
 fact that 1t t.produced a certain amount of money. Following the adjournment of the committees Birmingham session. two of it's members, J. T. Denson of
 Greene county, and George Smith of Crenshaw. visited Georgia and investi- gated the system which prevails In that state. They returned impressed with the idea that Georgia not only treat ted it's convicts more humanely, but that that state in building good roads through convict labor was proving slonger- sighted" than Alabama
 Prepare to Abolish Lease System Immediately thereafter. the commit tee concluded to strike the system a
 fatal blow. The committee returned to Birmingham last night, and each man expressed himself confident tat some positive action would be taken, and that what was done would laad shortly thereafter to the abolition of the lease system. The members. while not declaring themselves to the effect the abolition of the system, expressed

confidence In the fact that the people would welcome the proposed change.
 The Age-Herald for a long number of years has fought the convict lease system and 1t was chiefly as result of it's efforts that Jefferson county two years ago declined to renew it's con tracts with the corporations. The peo- rie of Birmingham from their oft-re- peated expressions, have shown them selves to be in sympathy with the movement. The Alabama Convict Ini - movement association, organized a year ago, has thrown itself into the fight against the system and as a re- suit the sentiment of the state is said to be orystallized.
 There is no doubt" said Senator Frank & White. president of the as- sociation, yesterday, but that the peo- pie are determined to put an end to the lease system. It Is blot against Christianity, a shame to civilization. This state cannot longer afford to deal In dishonor for money
 Favors Georgia Plan
 Walter Sessions expressed himself yesterday in favor of the adoption by Alabama of the Georgia plan. Under that plan," he said, the convicts would be turned over to the counties which are in need of road building and road improvement. The counties would te required to maintain the convicts and supervise their work. Each counr ty would be entitled to work it's own men. but not compelled to maintain a number in excess of it's need. Under the plan the state would not make money, but a system of good roads through out the commonwealth would soon be the rich possession of the peopl ], Should the number of convicts he greater than the several counties could employ, the excess would be available for farm work
 Senator ]. T. Denson, who for the in vestigating committee studied tho Georgia plan, said last night that i' his opinion that plan would work Tine ly in Alabama. Representative J. w Green of Dallas county bitterly criti' cized the system prevailing in this state.
