CONVICTS DO RELIABLE
WORK ON ROADS AND FARMS
Colorado Reports I.0N Miles of Per-
feet Highway Constructed by
prtsOncrn.

The Investigations of the National
Committee on Prisons and Prison Labor
into the reliability OF convicts at work
roads or on farms show that the
vast majority of tho sane and able
bodied men now confined i'm penal in
situations. If properly handled, can
he depended upon to perform tho tasks
set for them without the slightest fear
of their escaping.
In Colorado prisoners in six large
road camps are constantly employed
in the construction of roads In eight
years they have built what Warden
lyman calls 1900 miles of probably
the most perfect highway in the
world" They are also farming thou
sands of acres of land which produce
food used by the state institutions.
There are. however. about 1000 con-
victS in the state whom idlcness is
running in the various penitcntiaries,
and they should be employed in build
ing roads or on State farms.
The National Committee on Prisons
and Prison Labor finds that through
out the country there is an increasing
sentiment for the employment of con-
victs on roads and farms to assist in
relieving the food pressure which. be-
cause OF the war, confronts the ma
ton.
