More than 80 counties in Ken

roads under state supervision and

More than 80 counties In Ken
lucky are actually at work building
roads under state supervision and
with state aid. Twenty other coun-
ties have asked for and been grant
ed such aid and are now preparing
to begin work The statewide road
building movement is on in earnest,
and II is here to stay.
At the two penitentlaries, at
Frankfort and Eddyville, there are
1900 men convicts. A large pro-
portion OF that number are ply.
sically capable of working on the
roads Instead of being so worked,
they are let out to prison con-
tractors at an annual loss to the
state.
At the coming election, a consti-
tutional amendment to work the con.
victs on the roads is to be voted on.
II has been twice submitted by the
General Assembly and once adopt.
ed by the people. That adoption
was nullifled by failure to adver.
! tise the amendment within the pre-.
scribed 30 days. The necessary adj
vertising has now been done. The
whole question is in the hands OF
the voters, and both political par.
ties have declared for adoption
In their state platforms.
The prison contractor is opposed
to adoption 1t will put an end to
his profits. Organized labor is a
unit on wanting to see the amend.
ment adopted 1t will put an end
to convict competition with free
labor. 1t will put men at work on
the roads where there is now a
scarcity of labor.
In the state of Virginia, II was
found that convict labor effected
saving OF $500 a mile in the cost
OF building roads. In a score OF
other states. where this labor is
used, II has been demonstrat ed that
roads can be built with contract
labor at half the cost of free labor.
Convict labor on the roads has
proved good for the state and good
for the convict It has helped him
physically and morally. 1t has, in
many instances, restored him to
good citizenship, and a convict re-
stored to good citizenship is an
asset; a convict released to follow
q Nfo es.cr!ue IS a liability.
If Kentucky wants the advantages
that come from convict labor on
the roads, all that will be necessary
VIII be to vote Yes for the amend.
ment II Kentucky prefers to let
the prison contractor get richer at
her expense by continuing in effect
a system of slavery. the amendment
will be defeated.
But the voter who goes 10 the
polls and fails 10 vote on the amend.
ment will overlook an opportunity
10 do his county and the state good
service.
