"But this investigation has accom-
plished several things. First, it has
shown these prisoners that the gov
ernor and the paroles office are in
terested in them, and that they are
receiving the same consideration as
are all the other prisoners. In the sec
ond place, it has resulted in the set
ting up of complete files on every pri-
soner in the prison system convicted
of felony, and assures him that his
case will be carefully reviewed by the
paroles office at least once a year and
that as soon as he is eligible for pa

In the Sir Walter Hotel.
Nv i. G.. RASKERVILL

Raleigh, Dec. 26-The State High
way and Public Works Commission is
going ahead with it's plans for the
erection of a new building within the
State Prison enclosure to house the
various prison industries now estab-
lished at the prison, and those which
will be established later, Chairman
Capus NJ. Waynick said today. 1t has
not yet been decided just how extern
sive this building will be or how much
of the 100000 allotment recently
made by Governor J. G.. B. Ehring-
haus and the Budget Bureau will be
used for the building and how much
for industrial equipment, but present
indications are that at least 100000
will be spent on the building.
When this building is completed, it
will house the prison printing plant,
the mattress factory, the automobile
license tag factory, a chair factory
(for prison use only and the other in
Vdustries already conducted at the
Central Prison here. It is also plan
ned to have several other new prison
industries in this building, such as
clothing factory, where all the cloth
ing needed to supply the more than
1900 prisoners will be made, also uni
forms for guards and employers as
well as the going away" suits given
to all prisoners upon their discharge,
and probably either a shoe factory,
to make shoes for the prisoners upon
their discharge, and probably either
shoe factory, to make shoes for the
prisoners, or at least a large, central
shoe repair shop.
Consideration is also being given
to the installation of cotton spinning
machinery and of looms, so that the
prison can spin it's own yarn and
then manufacture it into cloth need
ed for clothing and into thousands of
blankets needed throughout the prison
system. No decision has yet been
reached with regard to this project,
put 1t Is known that to have the in
dorsement of some of the large cotton
mill owners in the State.
These new prison industries are not
only being planned to provide goods
needed by the prison, but also to give
employment to the prisoners and to
teach them trades by means of which
they can earn living after they are
discharged from prison, Waynick
pointed out.

I'VE are pleased, of course, that the

Laughlin said. For while we are
equipped and organized to sell be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 new license
plates day, we cannot possibly sell
100000 plates in four or five DAYS. Yet
it is evident that almost that many
car owners are going to wait until the
last week IN the month, with only four
business days in it, to try to get their
1887 license plates. The result is go
ing to be that some of these car own
ers are not going to be able to get
their new plates by January. That. in
turn, is going to mean that some of
them are either going to hav to do
without their cars for a few days or
else face the possibility of arrest for
driving with old license plates"

1887 plates right at first, of course,
since the use of some cars is seasonal
so that some owners wait until spring
