Chief Justice Warren today
asked for better understanding
of parole on the part of the
public--one which would silence
those who consider parole cod
ding" Of the prisoner.
Mr.. Warren keynoted a three
day conference which opened at
the Departmental Auditorium
The conference, made up of some
900 delegates from throughout
the country and all representa-
tiveS of the field of parole, will
seek to evaluate and establish
various principles of parole.
1t would be a wholesome thing
the Chief Justice said, if out OF
the conference would come "a
public aWareness of the fact
that the parole of a prisoner is
not an act of coddling. but OF
the contrary is an extension Of
the States supervision while he
is trying to re-establish himself
in society"
FelOnS Come Out Eventually
He also pointed out people
must realize that the "vast
majority OF prisoners must be
released eventually to become
our neighbors and fellow workers
in all walks of life.
There are in the Nation al
the present time approximately
200 State and Federal prisons

MI Warren said it was high
time the public, legislators. adj
illustrators, and taX-conscious
groups realize the best security
and he cheapest security against
the depredations of people once
committed for a serious crime
SIS an enlightened prison system.
Personal Supervision Stressed
Mr.. Warren said the value OF
any parole system lies in the
personal supervision given to the
individual by trained and under
standing people ' But he said
the United States was largely
undermined in this area.
In some jurisdictions a pro-
baton officer will have more
than 500 persons to supervise, .
he said In very few do they
have less than 100 Who on
earth could supervise 500 broken
men with the limited Skills and
opportunities Of the average eX-
convict? All the large cities have
