Increased Staff
NeedsCitedb by
Parole Board
Help Now inadequate
For Duties Assigned,
Commissioners Told

The Board of Indeterminate Sen
tence and Parole told the Commis-
sioners yesterday it needs a very
substantial increase" in it's staff il
it is to carry out its obligat ton in
the treatment OF prisoners in Dis
trict penal institutions at Occo-
quan and Lorton, Va.
| Under the parole statute, the
board pointed out in its annual re-
port, the board is responsible for de.
termining prisoner treatment.
with the present staff" the re-
port said, I'VE are under equipped
to do this work We have no staff
at all at Occoquan"
The members said that if the
Commissioners vested this RESPONSE
bility in the penal officials. the
statute would have to be changed
Training Program Urged.
IF the Commissioners desire the
board to carry out this responsible
ity," they added, "it will be neces.
sary to increase our budget sub
Stantlally.
The board also suggested that
this part of the parole law could be
made to work without radical
changes in the rehabilitation pro-
gram at Lorton Reformatory, in
cluding industrial training courses
and equipment.
The members renewed their an
| nual recommendation for voca-
tional training program at Lorton
that will fit the prisoners for some
useful occupation and thus aid re-
Mobilization afterward. The pris-
oners now make, among other things
shirts for policemen, bricks and
license plates.
Paid Member Sought.
while the board realizes that 1t
may be necessary to a certain ex-
tent to utilize prisoners in produc-
ing articles that can be used in
the operation of the institutions
themselves" the members said, yet
we believe that a vocational re-
Mobilization program based on a
study of the types of employment
available in the District upon re-
lease would provide a better oppor-
tunity for rehabilitation to these
prisoners"
Also renewed this year was the
board request for full-time paid
member
During the fiscal year ended June
80 the board had under supervision
541 paroled prisoners, of whom ITS
were paroled during the year.
Out of 4l6 indicted into service
since Pearl Harbor either directly
from the institutions or from parole,
only seven became involved in new
criminal offenses, so far as the
board could determine. ~.

Captain Charles Moody will be
glad TO make when he arrives home
tomorrow after nearly n year In
the Pacific theater.
Il was the captains duty to see
that the runways at Chintose Air
Base. Hokkaido. were kept clear
during the long winter months
This important base guards the
northern approaches Of the Japan
home islands and was completely
showed IN several times Its only
contact with the outside world was
by courier flights from Honshus
Moody joined the air corps early
in the conflict and won his wings
at Mather Field. California. In
Nav OF 1912. He. was kept in the
states as an instructor until the
late summer of 1945. when he was
sent 10 the South Pacific. He has
covered much territory since then
and was finally stationed at Chi

Mrs. c. ]. Moody. from there the
captain tells of snow that packed

and Stripes states: Despite the
prevailing Artic storms. the main
runway OF the Fifth Air Force
airdrome NJ Chitose was kept open
and the psi Mustangs OF the 49ih
Fighter Group consistently main
tained their survellIence flights.
Captain Moody was given Jap
workers with which TO get the JOB
done. He found them more care
ful with the snow plows and other
equipment than the Americans.
They take great pride in the
fact that they are permitted TO
work with such fine machinery.
They were good workers and bet

the hands OF the military"
Whenever the fighter planes
were sent on a mission BIZ

lection. the captain said. II Is es-
timated that man could not live
over .l5 minutes in water IN such
temperatures, so the big brother"
were always nearby in case of
emergency. The BITS carried a

papachuted anywhere. The boat
was equipped with complete first
