THE OLD HOME at the an WOULD MEND CLOTHING But Quarters Found Unsuitable by Inspector Who Commends Motive Binghamton Press Bureau 3.LBANr, Jult 23 Plans of Sheriff Maurice J.

Pope, Broome county sheriff, to keep women prisoners in the main county jail busy by employing them at the county Jail farm are (expected to be vetoed by the State Commission of Correction. Inspector James McG. Shilling-law, in a report to the commission made public today, said it would be next to Impossible to prevent contact between male and female prisoners at the jail farm, although he thought the sheriff's plan to keep the women occupied was "most commendable." 'The Inspector Shilling- law eald, "has been desirous of finding some employment for such adult female are committed to the main jail and he has considered having a large room on the second now used as a chanel. converted into a detention room for such women where they can be employed at mending in mates' clothing, etc. "The situation was studied at the time of inspection and while it is most commendable to find employment for these women, it Is doubtful if the plan would receive the approval of the state commission of correction.

"When the Jail was built It was planned for men only; matron's quarters were not provided and there is but one stairway. There. are no facilities for exercising female prisoners and any held here would toe in practically solitary confinement. It is questionable if contact between the male and female prls oners could be entirely prevented. Furthermore the location of the sleeping quarters of male officers di rectly opposite the entrance to this room would be objectionable.

I be lieve that under the circumstances it would be unwise to send female prisoners to this Jail, notwithstanding the benefits which would accrue through additional classification space provided and the employment of women now detained in Idleness, The latter can be overcome by bringing the -articles requiring mending to the main Jail by truck which makes frequent trips between the two Institutions.
