Salem. At Its first official meet
ing, held at the penitentiary, the new

govern Its conduct, and announced
certain policies different from those

parole officer not only to watch over
paroled men, but especially to assist
them and aid them In obtaining and
keeping employment.
Under the new law passed by the
last legislature the parole board con
sists of the following ox officio mem
ben: Warden Mlnto, of the peniten
tiary; Parole Officer Keller and O. P.
