PAROLED PRISONERS
OF ILLINOIS ENGAGE
IN WAR ACTIVITIES

SfitINGtIEi.D III. July 2 More
thnn goo parDleh prisoners from Iiinpla
pcnal institutions already are engaged
on war work for the federal govern
men;. N became known here today and
Charles II Thornp director Of the state
department Of public welfare believes
a thousand such men can he selected
without fear ~ any bctrs ying the spe-
cial trust imposed In the war emery
cucy.
Most workers thus far have been as
signed tu tasks at the Rock Island ar.
scnal. In addition TO those employed
by the government. however. a large
number ~. being used rs farm and
garden lnborers AT state Institutions
thus saving the labor shortage prob
icm faced by the state
Utmost care IN used TO make sure
mon released from the prison wallis are
trustworthy. Mr.. Thornc said. He stat
cd that the entire plan Is In corson
nance with the co operative system OF
prison administration. the attempt be-
iag 20 build up character and TO re-
claim men for good citizenship after
prison terms have expired Provisions
of the parole law, Mr. Tholne declared
are being carefully observed.
The scheme of war emergency parole
was worked out originally by VIII
ColNin, superintendent OF the division
of pardons and paroles and approval
given by the federal government MI.
ihurne. head 81 the department be-
iieVed the plan an excellent one, and
he shared this attitude with John L..
Whitman. superintendent OF prisons
In the operation OF the new system
the prisoners are parolcd 10 the Nsri-
Gus Illinois free employment agen
cies which IN turn offer them for work
90 the federal bureaus. Both have
been consolidated as resuit Of the
war and the cooperative arrangement
was easy OF accomplishment.
OFFICIALS Of the department Of pub
lie welfare are taking unusual sstis-
faction In placing paroled prisoners In
government service" said MIR Thorns
today. An interesting feature Is the
effect upon the prisoners who earnestly
desire TO serve the government for the
war. Their pride rs great and the re-.
suit, officials believe viii go farther
toward bringing these men haca T.,
citizenship than anything else that
could be devised" The "gunman" viii

here show there are now incarcerated
