that Congress passed 4 commendable

Parole Not Form of Leniency,
american Association Holds
Declared Not to Gire Offender Re,Uard
for Being ''Good Prisoner" But
Is Protection of Society.

This is the eighth OF series OF
articles dealing 1Oith the Districts
comparatively neW indeterminate
sentence and parole laWs uhich
were subjected to criticism in con-
nection Uith the anti-crime cam
paign.
In formal or legal sense, parole
is a conditional release from cor
rectional or penal institution under
supervision. Properly conceived and
administered, it is not form of clem-
ency or leniency; it is not employed
for the purpose of shortening an Of
tenders term; it is not giving an Of
fender a reward for being a good
prisoner"
Such is the opinion of the American
Parole Association, which, in its decla
ration of principles, points out that
parole itself is based primarily upon
protection Of society and is aimed at
the prevention of crime and the reduc-
ton of recidlvism.
Parole Early Considered.
'Parole is carefully considered part
of the whole process of treatment be-
gun when the offender enters the in
stitution. or earlier" says the aSSocia-
ton 1T is an extension of the au-
thority and effort of the State beyond
the doors of the institution and beyond
the time of institutional residence. A
period spent on parole is the period of
supervision and readjustment from the
extraordinary and artificial life of the
institution to normal life in the COM
munity.
In this view, parole is not based
primarily upon consideration for the
offender: it is based primarily upon
protection of society. seeking that pro-
lection through the readjustment and
welfare of the person who has broken
laws. To this end, it uses and CO.
ordinates all resources of the COM
munity and aims at prevention of
crime and the reduction of recidiviSm.
Parole System Favored.
"All offenders leaving correctional
and penal institutions should be re-
leased by the method of parole There
should De no other form of release,
except, of course, for those who are
pardoned, recalled by courts, or who
leave for some other exceptional or
unforeseen circumstances The reason
for this is that a period of readjust-
ment and supervision is desirable, both
for the offender and society; the Of
fender gains by the assistance rem
dered him and society gains both by
such assistance and by its power to
return him to the institution if he
violates its mandates.
1T makes no difference, therefore,
whether a person has a long crimi-
nal record or short one, whether
he is an experienced lawbreaker or
an inexperienced one, whether his
most recent conviction was for a
serious or a light crime, whether he
has an unstable or stable person.
ality-these. together with his record
in the institution, are not important
in answering the question: Shall he
be held under supervision after he
Evening star., 1934-11-11

therefore, becomes matter of
choosing the time at which release
of each offender is most advantageous
or beneficial. 1t Is not q matter Of
determining who shall be released
by the method Of parole and who
shall not.
1T Is unfair to the prisoner II,
though otherwise eligible for parole,
he is kept incarcerated merely be-
cause no person or agency can be
found to whom he may be paroled
Where the local parole boards can
not undertake this duty, the estab-
lishment of agencies to which pris-
Oners who are without friends and
relatives may be paroled should be
encouraged.
Preparation for parole should be-
gin the moment the offender reaches
the institution. 1t should be q con-
scious and deliberate part of the
policy of the institution to fit the
offender for parole. This not only
means preparing him as far as pos
sible for useful and industrious life
outside, but it means the desirable
Evening star., 1934-11-11

ity of specific instruction in regard
to his obligations and opportunities
while on parole.
Importance of Rehabilitation.
TOO much Importance cannot be
attached to the re-educative and re-
habilitative efforts Of the institution.
Success on parole will depend to a
large degree upon what has hap
pened to the offender while behind
the walls. 1t Is q prerequisite to
satisfactory parole work. therefore.
that the institution shall have done
its utmost to bring about the neces-
sary changes in the health and atti-

This means a careful study of the
needs and personalities of individual
offenders and the use Of all available
resources in such fields as medicine.

preparation 10 face the realities of the
life that he will find awaiting him
upon release
Consideration for release upon
parole should come I'D automatically,
and at intervals not too infrequent,
and irregular, in the course of every
inmates residence. 1t should be as
essential a part Of the necessary
routine, in the handling of every in
mate, as questions relating to a change
in his work assignments, attendance
at the institution school, etc. The
necessity for a formal application for
parole from the prisoner himself, be-
fore he will be considered for parole,

that will be ultimately responsible for
the supervision of the offender.
In the development OF all parole
plans, the prisoner must be an active
agent. He must be participant in
programs affecting the welfare of
himself and family. To this end, he
must be frequently informed and con-
suited about the situation and prob
lens in which his family is involved.

life Of the inmate should be carefully
planned, record of his progress kept,
and changes should be made as often
as necessary. Society gains by the in
carceration of offenders in so far as
there has been improvement in their
habits, attitudes and behaviours.
Preparation for parole includes a
study of the offenders family situation
and relationships, and the extension
of such assistance or social service to
his family as may be required while
he is still incarcerated. In this effort,
the cooperation Of appropriate COM
munity agencies should be obtained

leave the institution-and We are
not here considering the matter of
permanent custodial care for some
types of offenders-the conditions
and policy of parole should be ap-
piled to him. This is true both of
those receiving indeterminate and
definite or fixed sentences; advantage
should be taken by every possibility
to release the latter before the final
date of their sentence (as by the
operation of good time" rules) in
order that there may be some period
of supervision and control under con-
ditions of community life.
