Member of Parole Board Says
There's Small Chance to
Reform Forger.
BEAT PUBLIC, LATTER'S CRY
Petty Larceny and' "Second-Story"
Mrn Classed Among Those Beyond
HopeConvlct Now Out Called
Bark to Prison Cell:
SALEM. Or.. Jan. 19. (Special.)
That forcers, petty larcenlsts and "second-story"
me a are beyond reformation
.by the parole board after thrlr flrat
offense and that about the only cla of
criminal who are subject to reform.
re murderer la the opinion of J J me
R. Linn, from the experience which he
baa derived as a member of the parol
board and aa an appointee of Uovernor
West.
OoTemor West waa responsible In the
main for the Inauguration of the parole
board through a bill which West fath
ered In the Legislature and which waa
passed largely through his Influence In
the executive offices.
It also became) known today that
numerous men who were given paroles
by the parole board are being received
back at the Institution, but news of this
la being carefully withheld and sup
pressed, not only by Uovernor West
himself, but by the officials at the
State Penitentiary.
Lias Attacks rmpal-a Talk.
That the assertion of Governor West
early in the campaign, that be Intended
to parole and pardon enough prisoners
to keep the cost of maintenance down.
Is also branded by Mr. Linn aa a mls
take and asa policy which waa not
soundly based In Its Inception.
"I am thoroughly satisfied from th
experience which I have had In con
nection with the parole board that all
second term men who have been con
victed of larceny, burglary, forirery and
crlmee of that nature are beyond hope
of reformation." said Mr. Linn today.
Many of them are being received back
at the prison. There are at least half
a dosen men of this caliber who we
paroled on urgent recommendation of
people closely affiliated with the Pris
oners' Aid Society and kindred organl
aatlons who have been received back in
a comparatively recent period. They
are not worthy of particular considera
tion and never could be reformed.
"I am not branding- the parole sys
tem as a failure, by making; this state
ment, but I do assert trat such a clasa
of men. when they come back to the
Penitentiary a second time, are the
same as though they came back for
life.
"Beat Public la Ala.
"Nina times out of ten the murderer
or the man who commits an assault
with a Oadly weapon commits the
crime because he has some specific ob
ject In Tlsw directed at some particular
person. It 1 highly probable that such
a man would never commit another
crime. But outside of this class there
Is a great class of criminals who have
only one object In Uf to beat the
public.
The parol board la now Issuing
very few parole. On reason for this
Is found In the fact that w do not be
lieve In the policy of paroling men
to save expenses and keep the cost of
the prison down. The other Is that
there Is little chance of securing; em
ployment for paroled men.
"The Governor has placed the entire
responsibility of handling- criminals for
parole on the parole board, and w In
tend to see that, as far aa possible, the
criminals who come under our consid
eration are cared for to the beet Inter
ests of the publlo and to the beat In
terests of themselves.
"No man can make irood on the out
side nnless he has som congenial oc
cupation to keep his mind away from
crime. We Intend to release no more
unless we are absolutely satisfied that
they are furnished with such congenial
occupation."
ASYLUM WILL USE OLEO

Told In Clwapcr Product.
SALEM. Or, Jan. 10. (Special.)
Hereafter oleomargarine instead of
butter will be used at the Stat Asylum
for the Insane. In this connection the
agent for teh oleomargarine company
secured the contract principally by
slipping one over" on Superintendent
Cteiner.
Surreptitiously he succeeded in re
placing the butter supply In the super
intendent's refrigerator with oleomar
garine and the family used It unknow
ingly for several days. When this be
came known to the auperlntendent he
tried the same plan on officials and
member of the staff with like success.
Superintendent Steiner says that the
chang from butter to oleomargarine
will reerait In a saving of several thou
sand of dollar on the maintenance
fund. Tbe oleo can be secured for II
cents a pound and butter Is now at
practically 40 eenta The maintenance
fund I now about 19000 ahead of the
appropriation. but Superintendent
btelner says radical measures will have
to be used to keep out the red figures
during the coming year.
