LINDBECK State Capitol News Bureau VETERAN FRISON OFFICIAL DIES Death claimed another member of the state’s official family this week In the person of James W. Lewis, warden of the state prison. "Square Deal” Jim, as Lewis was best known to the prisoners who have come under his wardenship was generally recognized as one of the outstanding prison heads of the nation.

He previously was sentenced to die on January 7, 1937, but re ceived at stay of execution pend ing his appeal to the high court.
