Better Garb for Paroied Prisoners.
OLYMPIA men, recently
paroled by the state board, will
shortly leave the penitentiary ut
Walia Walla clothed in up-to-date
tailor-made suits of varying pattern,
with the regular commercial type
shoes, instead Of the single pattern,
cheap, ready-made suit and prison
shoes heretofore given men released.
In announcing this drastic change
in prison policy toward the paroled
man, the assistant director of bust
ness control said that the neat and
inconspicuous style of clothing and
shoes provided will be made in the
penitentiary shops from the cloth and
leather at lower price than the one
pattern shoes and suits heretofore
provided have cost the state. 1t is
the announced policy of the depart
ment also to provide employment If
possible that will pay prison inmates
something ON their work in order
that they may have more than the
customary SIS and ticket home to be-
gin life anew.
IF men released from the peniten-
tiary do not feel and are not actually
better men," Mr.. Pace said, "the Pc
nal theory has failed. They are
marked men from the moment they
leave the prison. Their most certain
prospect Is a return to 1t as soon as
the S. they are given is gone. Even
cents an hour pay for prison worn
would give many an inmate sufficient
funds to carry him into honest en-
ployment after release
