MONTGOMERY, Ala. April 8.
You can be sent to prison in
Alabama and wear the brand
of an ex-convict the rest of your
life for no more than using
abusive language or driving a
car without a license.
Scores of men. and women,
too. walk into the penitentiary
each month to serve sentences
of a few months or a few weeks
-or. in some instances only a
few days.
Although they may have COM
mitted no worse offense than
reckless driving or public drunk
eness. they leave the "big house"
with a prison record the same
as crime hardened thugs con-
victed of murder or robbery.
They're checked in, given q
number. fingerprinted and mug
ged like all other convicts. even
though they may have only 10
days to serve, or less. Records
at Kilby Prison tell the incred-
ible story of men brought miles
across the State with a debt
to society of one day plus court
costs which are worked out at
the rate of IS cents a day.
Counties Have Option.
These short-termers are county
prisoners, convicted of misde-
meanors which carry hard labor
sentences of a year or less. I'm

and do, turn county prisoners
over to the State rather than

| In the 1928 fiscal year
which ended September 3. Kilby
imprisoned 984 county convicts.
Twenty of them had 80 days or
less to serve, 266 had less than
60 days, and 389 were in for less
than three months.
They went through the same
check in procedure that all con-
victs get regardless of the length
of their terms.
When they leave prison they
go out like all other eX-cons,
clad in new trousers, shirt. I'M

they need them. The State pays

Only Cleanup Slated
At Emery Tract Now,
Recreation Aide Saws

The District Recreation De-
partment today said it plans to
clean up the Emery tract on
Georgia avenue near Missouri
avenue NV. but can do nothing
else in the near future.
Civic groups in the area have
been demanding that the 5R-
acre tract be developed as a
playground. The land was sold
to the District years ago by heirs
Of the Emery family. with the
understanding 1t would be used
for library and recreational pur-
poses.
Day Camp Activity.
George w. Wilson, director of
planning and development for
the Recreation Department, said
the department plans to spray
chemicals to kill ticks and clean
up the site this spring. This will
permit continuation of a summer
day camp, held there for the last
three years.
Mr.. Wilson said the Emery
tract is about a third of the way
down in the list of projects con-
templated under the city's public
works program. This means it
will be about three years before
any extensive work is done there,
if the works program starts this
year.
Plan Includes Shelter.
He said the plan is to build q
shelter, lay out tennis courts and
a ball field and create the usual
playground facilities.
He conceded the interest of the
area residents might well push
the Emery project up in priority.
Mr.. Wilson said the residents
of the area have been very active
in pushing for the development
of the tract. Nearly all of the
civic groups in the area have
passed resolutions in recent
months asking for immediate
development.

Mendes-France, Jew and Zionist,
who has joined the spite of
French imperialism toward Arab
ism, which is struggling every
where for the liberation of North
Africa, and the spite of interna-
tional Zionism toward Arabism,
which is struggling everywhere
for the Arabism of sacred Pales-

''This Zionist and. imperialist

Thus the Arab strategists have at
tempted to link Zionism with i'm

and Moroccan nationalist aspira-
tons.
When MendeS-France discusses
the Arab problem with President
Eisenhower and Secretary of
State Dulles it will be virtually
impossible to separate the current
difficulties in North Africa from
those directly affecting Israel.
Mendes-France will bring with
him new slant, a view point
which may open the eyes of Presi-

ing the administration to question
the wisdom of its decision.
On the other hand, the State
Department has no desire to iden-
tify itself publicly with support of
imperialism in North Africa
where native unrest is growing.
By equating Zionism with i'm
perialism, the Arabs hope to make
a popular case against both, 1t is
felt here that Mendes-France will
have to produce his greatest mir
acle yet by reaching satisfactory
compromise with the United
States on North African and Near

France must make certain con-
cessions in North Africa. It has
indicated willingness to do so.
Meanwhile, however, Israeps in

this dilemma, few diplomats
could snatch success. But Mendes-
France is one of those few.
