PAROLING IN
TEXAS FAILURE
Law Permitting Release Of
Convicts In State Is I'm
satisfactory.

Austin, Tex. Jan. 1S.-ParOling con-
victs TO individuals under the present
system Is not in accordance with the
spirit OF the law and has proved very
unsatisfactory. declares the board OF
pardons in its annual report, suo-
mitted today to the governor, for the
period of the last biennial term.
There have been a great many appi-
cations for parole OF convicts and the
cause Of these applications, in the
opinion OF the board. has been on &C
count OF the general shortage OF
labor, especially farm labor The
board believes there should be a
period Of time OF Imprisonment estab-
lished in which the prisoner ought 10
be given a chance TO demonstrate his
intentions for the future. The board
reaches the conclusion that the gov
ernor has the power. without legisla-
tive sanction. to adopt a parole sys-
TEN with proper rules and regula-
lions.
