It is quite obivlous that with
m inorities, p a rticularly, the
stigma of a crim in a l record
leads to no hope and despair.
Unable to find any kind of work
leads them, as well as others
back to crim e and to repeat
the process of prosecution and
incarceration. Ih e research
shows that " r e a l" rehabili­
tation, which includes employ­
ment. is fa r more economical
and cannot be measured m
terms of what is human and
decent.

Picketing Private
Home
Henry's plan to open a tav­
ern in a suburban neighborhood
raised the hackles of nearby resi­
dents. One afternoon, several men
showed up at his house with pro­
test signs and began to picket
Equally incensed, Henry went
to court for an injunction against
this “ intrusion into my private
life ." At the hearing, the picket-
ers insisted they were mainly ex­
ercising their right of free speech.
But the court sided with Henry
and issued an injunction
“ The home is a retreat from
outside affairs." said the judge.
“ When the right of free speech
is weighed against the right to
privacy, the balance favors the
privacy of the home.”

Courts generally have con­
curred in placing a high value on
the home as a privileged sanc­
tuary from strife.
Nevertheless, residential picket­
ing has sometimes been allowed
under special circumstances —
such as ihe fact that the occupant
of the house is a public official.
Thus, the picketing of a gov­
ernor's home by a civil rights
group was upheld in court. The
judge said Ihe picketers “ had a
legitimate right, protected by the
Constitution, to appeal to those in
authority for redress ”
And the picketing of a land­
lord's home by disgruntled ten­
ants was sustained on the ground
that he had no other known head­
quarters where they could vent
their feelings.
Of course, even if picketing it­
self is considered lawful, it may
still be condemned because of the
manner in which it is done.
In another case, the home of a
hospital executive was subjected
to mass picketing by boister­
ous marchers. Furthermore, they
flaunted signs that were plainly
libellous This time, a court held
the picketing unlawful
“ Conducted at a considerable
distance from the hospital," said
the judge, “ in a residential area,
it was apparently aimed to cause
humiliation and mortification to
fthe victim) and his family. It
represents a form of direct and
unmitigated coercion, a foul
blow.”

While the researchers focu­
sed th e ir study on public
agencies, they report that
th e ir findings apply to both
public and p riv a » employers.
No humane thinking person,
in good judgement, could dis­
agree with the strong recorn-
ineixiation of the researchera:
That job application forms 1»
revised to specifically exclude
«vende orexjxinged records.
C lvd Service announcements
should be communicated to
prisoners routinely, and pro­
visions made fo r tlie conduct
of c iv il service examinations
in prisons. Government agen­
cies should gat tier statistical
data
to
provide rational
grounds fo r tlie ir employment
practices as related to judge­
ments regarding p rio r c rim i­
nal convictions. F in a lly .p ro -
bation and parole officers
should be authorized to in­
itiate annulment proceedings.

The danger of encountering
employment b a rrie rs is not
lim iteJ to those who have been
convicted. In most ju ris tlc -
tions job application forms
seek information about a r­
rests, even though followed by
no conviction, and in many
areas such
arrests are
grounds for not hiring. The
study urges federal legisla­
tion to prohibit all public or
private employers from ask­
ing about a rrest records on
job application forms, and to
prevent the general disclosure
by law enforcement agencies
of information regarding a r­
rest re cordsw hlcharenotfol-
iowed by convictions.
