Il. Riley state superintendent OF prisons.
Superintendent Riley will be given a
hearing at the executive chamber on

Riley declined to accede TO the COVER

ground that Riley's transfer of sixty-six
Sing Sing inmates to Dannemora prison
would have the effect OF breaking down
the Sing Sing administration and render
ing intolerable the position of Warden
