PRANGE Staff Writer The Statesman rehabilitation based on strict discipline will be the watchword at the strife-ridden Oregon State Prison as long as temporary warden Clarence T. Gladden is in charge, he said Friday. Gladden, tall, spare, greying, took up his first full day of duties at the prison Wednesday morning. He arrived Tuesday night to re place Warden Virgin O'Malley who was abruptly dismissed in a sur- 'IKDODDCB Running a prison. is one of the toughest jobs in the whole range of government. It wasn't an easy assignment that Virgil O'Malley took over "when he became war den at Oregon State Penitentiary. Local complainta,-lanned by the Oregon Prison Association and by the free cruising of, the premises by the Bull committee of the Leg islature in 1951, led to changes in executive personnel ai me prison, but they , left a legacy of nrisoner arrogance that never was nrooerrr repressed. As a result the three wardens asked by the ti-i PnntMl in Incnct the j 1?XX u im v ww r prison found that control of the prison -has almost completely left the hands of the authorities and passed to those of the inmates. One root of the trouble was de fection among the guards. O'Mal ley did not command or obtain the loyal support which is needed for effective administration. Here the fault may have been divided; but when discipline became so demoralized that attacks on guards were numerous and convicts seem ed to roam cellblocks at will then a change in the administration became necessary. In the opinion of the visiting wardens, the di vision of responsibility between superintendent and warden was unwise, and the dual system will end with the voluntary retirement of George Alexander. Governor Patterson gave assur ance that the program of prison er renaoiutauon would oe con tinued. This is needed; and O' Malley deserves credit for his work along this line.

The 58-year-old Gladden was already up to his friendly grin in work - in "getting oriented, by mid-morning Wednesday. Frankly admitting he was "swamped' with getting his feet on the ground Gladden said he was too unfamiliar with the situ ation at the prison to answer many of the questions newsmen asked him in brief, hurried interviews. "As of now," he said, "the inside of the prison is peaceful and going at routine. There Is no unrest among the inmates. There have been no demonstrations, - , Because of his newness on the job he said he he hadnt planned any immediate disciplinary meas ures in the prison. He added he planned no immediate changes in guard or office personnel fit in the prison food or other routine ac tivities. Appraisals Walt Gladden made it clear, though, that he would be better able to appraise these situations when he became better acquainted with the problems at the prison. Although officials at the prison reported the institution was in a "state of great unrest" during the past week, it was reported as "quiet" Wednesday morning, de spite the change of wardens. Board of control members had feared possible trouble with the an nouncement of the change., ' Prisoners were fed breakfast Wednesday morning in the usual manner. "The policy of this prison while Tin here, said Gladden, "will be to continue the program of reha bilitation so that inmates' attitude toward society will be changed for the better. This will include edu cation, recreation and work pro gram. All based on strict disci pline." From Tacoma Gladden, who recently retired after 23 years in federal prison work, was called from his Tacoma, Wash., home to accept his tempor ary assignment here. He went to work at the McNeil Island federal prison in 1930. In 1939 he moved to Tucson, Ariz., prison and one year later to the prison at Terre Haute, Ind. He went to Leavenworth, Kans., in 1950 as senior associate warden and retired in January. Mrs. Gladden has accompanied him to Oregon. i Meanwhile Virgil O'Malley, dis missed warden, said he would re ply today to charges made against his administration by a survey team of three out-of-state war dens. O'Malley said Wednesday he had no immediate plans for the fu ture except that he intended "to remain in Salem for awhile, yet." i O'Malley who succeeded George Alexander as warden at the prison about one and one-half years ago, will receive a month's salary and may remain in his residence on the prison grounds for 30 days. Alexander, who has been prison superintendent since being repla ced as warden, has told the board of control he desired to retire. The Doard is expected to meet with Al exander today and discuss the matter with him.

The one - sided verdict by the House was not surprising. Last year it passed a similar bill. 265 109. This bill got the approval of the Senate, but was vetoed by President Truman. President Eisenhower has said he favors the legislation, It didn't take the House long to get the job done Wednesday. It first turned down a proposal to shelve the bill. 283 to 106, and then approved it and sent it along to the Senate.

Immediately after. Rep. Earl Hill, Cushman, moved for recon sideration of the dam bill, beaten by a vote of 31 to 28 Tuesday, and it went back to the House state and federal affairs committee for action on a proposed amendment that would require installation of fish safeguards for any dams li censed by the hydroelectric com mission. Labor spokesman bitterly at tacked the restrictive picketing bill as an attempt to create confu sion within the union movement and destroy labor's gains in Ore gon. Minns Hearings Rep. Phil J. Roth, Portland, ac- scattergun" techniques attention from the "real purpose of this bill. .He pointed out that the majority of the House labor and industries committee had sud denly junked a number of other labor-curbing bills and substitut ed the picketing legislation with out holding a public hearing on it. Rep. Gust Anderson, Portland, declared there had been no public demand for the proposed legisla tion, which he branded "an at tempt to destroy the "little Norris LaGuardia" act enacted by the 1947 Legislature. He said the bill could "only lead to strife and dis cord" between labor and manage ment. Beyond Season' "This puts a shotgun in the hands of anti-labor employers,' Rep. Alfred Corbett, Portland, de clared. "Unions wouldn't be able to protect their own members be xause they couldn't advertise the fact,' by picketing, that they had been discharged. This type of leg islation : goes far beyond the bounds of reason." Rep. Robert Root, Medford, ar gued that peaceful labor-manage ment relations in Oregon in recent years had been due to the "in flationary spiral. Needs Protection' "But we are reaching theend," he added,. "Our economy is slow ing down and business specially small business is going to need protection. The legislation will give the business or Industry. In intrastate operations the same pro tection afforded interstate com merce under the Taft-Hartley law, Rep. Russell Hudson, The Dal les, declared labor unions are cry ing "wolf" in asserting they fear effects of the proposed biil. He implied that unions had used the picketing weapon unfairly in some instances and declared that re striction should be placed "on this union club." So Ions Opposed Voting against the labor bill were Reps. Anderson, Chindgren, Corbett, Dammasch, Dooley, Eat on, Francis, Hall, Harvey. Hat field, Jensen, Klemsen, Laird, Lay man, Mann, McKenzie, Neuberger, Roth, Steward,. Sweetland and Wallace. The house vote for reconsidera' tion of the once-beaten Pelton dam bill was 39 to 18. The sug gested fish safeguards were spon sored by the Portland General Electric Co and proposed by Rep. Alva Goodrich, Bend. PGE was denied a permit by the hydroelec tric commission to build Pelton dam on the Deschutes River. (Additional legislative news on page 4.)

The West has long demanded fool - proof control of atomic en ergy and the world's armaments. Wednesday Russia's Andrei Y. Vi shinsky scrapped his old - time hard words condemning the West on the Questions , and accepted a Western plan calling for continued work by the U.N. Disarmament Commission. Vishinsky also omitted any ef-J ions to renew at wis time tne old- time Russian demands for a one third cut in the armed forces of the Big Five powers and for an immediate prohibition -of atomic weapons. Some delegates speculated he was ready to go along with the West in a study of plans for the balanced reduction of armaments and putting the atomic energy un der definite controls acceptable to all .sides. In the past he has refused to accept even the plan of work put up by the West, to say nothing of the Western proposals for arms controls. The United States and Britain reacted j cautiously to the Russian move and said they would study it ruuy.
