Hecauae uiilllornla la generally renoKnlxed an having trie xnoiit ad vauced prlwin program In the country, the Hoard ol Control went there to find a new warden. OMnl lev waa deputy warden nf the Call fnrnln Hlute I'rlnon at Boledad, and he replaced Ucorke Alexander, who, In turn, waa named aunerln. tendent In charge of bualncaa el falra. L a a t July Lawrence O'Brien came up from Pnlaom to be deputy warden, ao now OreKon'a prlaon definitely haa a Callfornla-type ad mlnlatratlnn. Thle fact, however, haa brouKht crltlclam from proud Oreifonliina. O'Malley tin weathered much crltlclam, nnil he haa a toiiuh irol lent with aome of his guarU.H. Many of the guard like the way It waa done In the old daya better. Home ol the vnaida and parole officer believe a man can't be taiJKht lo Ko straight In prlaon. nut tne convlcta. by and lame. have great admiration and reaped for O Malley. I know, bei aune I talk with a lot of them. They are locked up Juat an much aa they lined to be, ana they nave lo work Just aa hard. Tney like u Miuiey oecaiiKe ne treata them like men, and because he'ft giving, them a chance to make good. And they believe he'a fair. You hear lota ol report of Im pending rlota at the prlaon, but ll'a been a calm place lor tne naal year. True, there have been aome eacapea, but moat of thern have been truntles who have walked away. The men like O'Malley'a educa tional program In which they can take grade achool, high achool and college couraea. He'a getting a good vocational education program un der way ao men can learn tradea. He alerted a claaalllcatlon aya tem In which every phaae of every Imnate'a life la Htudled. Thin de termine how much cualody a man needs, and what kind of education he ahould have. He haa brought In trained aocl ologlata and psychologists to help the men. And Uie food la a lot better. O'Malley aaya hla program will save money for the alale because It will result In fewer discharged men going buck Into crime. Thla doesn't mean the men are being pampered. O'Malley la a strict man, and the hardened crim inate who don't want help won't gel much sympathy from film. The men have mora mall priv ileges, trx), and a better place to vlalt, Prlaon discipline constate of losa of privilege or solitary con finement, and In meted out by a prison discipline board. There are no more beatings. O'Malley wanta more changes, but some will have lo wall for legislative action or until the build ing program la finlr-hed. He wanta better segregation of different types of criminals. He'd like a decern building lor women Inmates, and a separate Institution lor the young men. O'Malley thlnka the state need full-time parole board, with power to fix sentences. Thla board would release a man wnenever u thinks he'a ready. The warden would like to have every prisoner, when released, go out on parole, so he would be under supervision uuruig nia period of re- adjusting nimseii. ine many con victs who now go out when their sentences expire are free to do what they please. All these things will come slowly, If they do come. O'Malley will be plugging hard for them, with Uie backing of aome of the best brains in the prison business over the nation. These reforms were accomplish ed In California over the past few years. O'Malley knows he'll have trouble, but he Isnt the kind ol man who gives up easily. Ike Backer Bills Talks PORTLAND lifl Ben.
