'IV. I f " Percentage Shown Sweetland, chairman of the Sen ate Education Committee, used a Feb. 14 report from Warden Clar ence Gladden of the Oregon State Penitentiary to support his opposi tion to reduction of the compulsory school age. The report showed that of the 1.526 inmates at the penitentiary, only 53 are high school graduates. Sen. Sweetland said this is only 3.7 per cent of the convicts. Among Oregon adults generally, 42 per cent are high school graduates. "To complete high school doesn't make a man good, but it does make him employable and give him a chance in the world. The non graduates are frozen out of many opportunities, are looking for short cuts ... it is not surprising to find their numbers represenenled in force in the prison. No Correction Seen 'Without adequate counseling and individual case work, a lower compulsory attendance age would aggravate the situation, not cor rect it."
