SARGENT IS
STUDYING
REFORM
Federal Board Would Have
Charge of Drafting U. s.
Penal Policies
By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH

By ROBERT s. THOKNBUhGH
Backed by the nations educa-
tional and social leaders. a plan
which virtually would convert the
Governments penal institutions
into technical trade schools, was
brought forward today by L. c.
White, Federal superintendent OF
prisons.
Attorney General Sargent is
studying the proposal. Sargent
may recommend to Congress that
the Department of Justice be
granted the authority to carry out
this new idea in prison policy,
aimed at rehabilitation, as well as
punishment, of inmates.
Under the plan Federal prison
board, consisting of the Score
taires of Labor Commerce, In
terror, or other Cabinet officers
would be formed to cooperate with
the Attorney General in drafting
Governmental penal policies.
Large Percentage Idle
With a considerable percentage
Of the 5000 Federal prisoners idle,
owing to lack of facilities for their
employment, the Government is not
accomplishing the best results In
fits attempt to transform these exlies
from society, into honest, trained
citizens capable of earning living.
department officials said.
White believes that with a variety
Of possible trades open to prisoners
af Atlanta. LeavenWorth and Nc
Neil Island penitentiaries, long
step toward actual reformation OF
many inmates could be taken.
No decision has yet been reached
as to what industrial plants would
be established in the various prisons.
Already shoe factories and cotton
mills are in operation, but the scope
of these Is INSULT A:ient to occupy
the number of prisoners near
cerated.
Ordinary Crafts to be Taught
If the idea meets congressional
approval, it was anticipated thai
most of the ordinary crafts would
be reBresented in the Federal prison
system. manned by trained men
capable of offering satisfactory In
Structiop.
Sargent feels that idleness OF
prisoners is among the biggest
factors in difficulties Of establishing
discipline and that to this cause
NAV be attributed many OF the up
rising that have occurred in ooth
Federal and State institutions.
