I To END
PRISONS

MOSCOW, Dec. % uN.s)--
Soviet Russia win soon be . ma
ton without prisons. All convicts
sentenced for more than three
years will be concentrated In
prison camps in isolated regions
far from civilization.
The recommendation to this
effect were made by Attorney
General Nikolai KrilenkO and the
Commissariat Of Justice, and are
certain to be adopted. M. Kri.
lenko said 135 prisons ought to
be closed before January 1 and
the $4,000 long-terIn convicts sent
to penal colonies which must be
at least Self-supporting. Farming,
woodworking and handicraft will
be the principal occupations for
the prisoners at the start. Others
win be added as funds for neceS-
Sary machinery become available.
The location Of the colonies has
not yet been decided upon.

drys by surprise.

protests from farmers and others
who cross and recross the border
frequently.

Senator Schan (R.) of Mime

President Hoover's plans for
complete reorganization of Fed
eral enforcement machinery are
expected to be carried out through
removal and appointment Of some

administrators and other officials.
Because of a "gentlemen'S
agreement" in the Senate to con-
slider only the tariff bill until 1t
is passed, legislation desired by
Mr.. Hoover may have to wait
until spring. A growing senti-
nneat was found today among
Congressional drys for transfer Of
enforcement activities from the

The sentiment apparently arose
in part through dissatisfaction Of
