Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, July 15, 1954 Page 4 INTERMEDIATE INSTITUTION The State Board of Control has not always had as much good luck in buying advice from fam ous consultants as in the present case of its employment of Dr. Sanford Bates to assist in plan ning and administrating the new intermediate instruction for young criminals. Here is some of his wisdom: Age should not be an exclusive factor in sentencing to the insti tution. Some persons of 18 years are older in criminal ways than others 5n years. Keep the distinction in the pub lic mind that the institution is not primarily for punishment but is built around the concept that the men who go there still have a fair chance of being reclaimed. Set up a diagnostic center to determine to which institution an individual should be sent or a joint classification procedure to confirm or amend the judge's de cision after he has indicated to which institution they should go. A sentence limitation, pro bably of five years. The top official should be cal led the superintendent rather than warden. He advised that the location of the new $1,250,000 institution should not be near the peniten tiary or the Woodburn School for Boys but in the southern part of Marion county near Jefferson.
