 Ford appealed for clemency to Gov ernor Kilby, who declined to release him, but the old board of pardons did recommend his release The ap- peal was renewed before Governor Brandon Saturday by George C. Pal mer of Columbus, Ga, and H. B. Fuller of Montgomery, attorneys for Ford. They, were accompanied by Ford's young sister, who pleaded with Governor Brandon to permit her brother to retur-. home.
 Governor Brandon did not indicate what action he will take. however His custom has been to require the board of pardons. which was i'm augurated with him. to make in vestigations and recommendations If he deems further inquiries neccs- sary he will submit the case to the board next week. 6

 Moment
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU
 THE AGE-HERALD


 Governor Brandon during the day stated that a temporary extension of one month was granted by the state late in January, which carried the life of the lease to March l. For many months the mines have been operated under monthly leases fol- lowing the abrogation of the con- tract between the state and the Mon tevallo Mining company at the time the company voluntarily entered the bankrupt court.
 All contracts between the state and the companies now using convict labor will expire December 31 and Governor Brandon and the board of convict supervisors will enter into negotiations late in the summer for the renewal of the contracts or the making of new contracts.
 Governor Brandon Saturday de- clared it is his purpose to abandon the convict lease system at the earli- est possible moment and that in his plan for the operation of the con- vict system during the next four years consideration will be given to the fact that the lease system must be brought to an end.
