Chairman W. A.. Paddock Of the Texas prison board
has ubmitted his annual report to the governor. Il
is q ~flattering tribute to Mgr. Lee Simmons and hts
co-workers. First, the system was operated at q net
cost Of ss7O.4452O in 1890, a reduction Of more than
a half million dollars from the 1929 figures IN 1929
the cotton crop was small. In 1880, IL was heavy.
This accounted for increase in prison receipts. Num-
Der Of escapes show a decided reduction for the yea-.
Only 472 Of the 506s convicts we're sentenced for state
liquor law violation while the population or the prison
system was practically the same at the end If rie
year as at the end OF 1929. Fire hazards have been
reduced by the installation Of a sprinkler system.
Steam heating fixtures have been placed IN the cell
blocks. Additional Improvements reported included
construction OF a canning plant at the central state
farm and the establishing of a prison printing plant
Gen. Mgr. Lee Simmons was praised by Chmn- Pad
dock In his very comprehensive annual report Cot
ton Is the chief staple Of the prison farm Now will
the acreage planted show an increase or a Reduction
