Governor Harry G. Leslie has
demonstrated that his hard-boiled
attitude toward lawbreakers is a
reality.
Sitting with the board of trustees
of the Indiana state prison here, the
Governor took an active part in
discussions relative to granting of
paroles and turned down Albert
w. Myer, from Lafayette, the Gov
errors home city, who asked a
parole
The Governor and Myer are well
acquainted. After hearing the con-
vict's plea, Leslie sent him back to
his cell after lecturing him on his
duty to his family. Then the Gov
ernor remarked:
That's the hardest thing ever
had to do
Only 81 of 100 petitions for Glenn
ency presented to the board were
granted, among them ten to priS-
oners from Marion county. These
included parole to Louis Owens,
Indianapolis barber, who killed a
fellow worker with pair of scissors
in downtown shop in indianapolis.
He was serving a two-to-twenty-
one-year sentence for manslaughter.
Several units of the prison need
remodeling, officials told Governor
Leslie in their plea, that the legis-
lature grant an appropriation of
$4,000. Warden Walter Fl. DAILY
told Leslie the prison now houses
zoos convicts with facilities for
proper housing of only 1,270.
