"We're going to launch third party and we're going to elect the congress. We will put some men in the senate.

Willamette " (Turn to, page 9, coL-) - To Free Fcjil, New-Ruling I . T - Practice Prevailing for 13 Years is Upset by Attorney-General Board to Meet, Freedom May Be Granted With " Certain Provisos . - No prisoner in the state peniten tiary can be released until he. has served his . maximum ternf unless he Is paroled or pardoned y the governor. JBueh was the .opinion yesterday of Attorney - General I Yen Winkle, wbe made the rallag in response to a request from Gov ernor Charles H. Martin in re gard to the law governing the pro posed release of Earl H. Fehl, for mer Judge of. Jackson county. -' The effect of the opinion by the attorney-general was to upset a practice which has prevailed at the state penitentiary for IS years under this practice when an in mate had served his maximum time, less his "good behavior cre dits" he was automatically releas ed. Good time credits were extend ed to virtually all prisoners, the only exceptions being where they had attempted an escape. Governor Silent Until His Return Governor Martin was advised of the opinion in Bremerton, Wash., where he is visiting his daughter. He said he would make no an nouncement regarding Fehl's par don pending his return to Salem tomorrow. Fehl was slated to leave prison next Wednesday under the prac-, tice prevailing there until the de cision of the attorney-general was handed down. Walter J. Jones, former mayor of Rogue River, Jackson county, who was senten ced to four years in state prison, was released, last week ' without any pardon being sought As the time approached for Fehl to be released. District Attorney George Codding of Jackson county pro tested, saying that Fehl had threatened to return to Jackson county and to raise trouble. Fehl was a leader In4he Good Govern ment league there at the time of the L. A. Banks uprising which culminated In the death of George Prescott, police officer. Codding's protest to Fehl's re lease led to the request for an opinion from the attorney-general. Terms Were Under Maximum as Rule . Under the Indeterminate sen tence law, as. it has operated In Oregon, a man sentenced to pen itentiary on a parolable charge certain crimes such as murder, as sault armed; with a dangerous weapon and grand larceny are not parolable comes up for parole when one-half of his sentence has been served and from that one half is allowed a deduction for good time. This deduction amounts to one-third of the-mlnimum sen tence. Thus a man sentenced for three years maximum term is sub-' Ject to parole, with good behavior allowances, at the end of one year. It he does not receive -the parole, bnt la continued to the maximum,' ho is subject to release at the and of two years, his good behavior credit then being one year. In the past the prison officials have re leased men when their maximum, term, lesa" .good behavior credit, i I (Turn to page t, col. ) ' : WIN TOP HONORS IN EASTER; EGG MATINEE f snnnnnBsiBBB-BaaannBnnnjaa j - . . . . .
