The white-pillared house, now being used as a school, is being sold by the Roman Catholic Church, which has announced plans to rebuild its school system on the outskirts of the city.

They make no specific recommendations, however.

"Our philosophy here is that if the judge has the facts, he is better able to give an objective approach. He is not involved emotionally," Turner said. "It is hard for us to be completely objective when we visit a home where there are dirty, ragged children running around," he explained. The probation officer said the court's first consideration is protection of the community but an important second is the defendant himself. Turner also explained that his office investigates persons eligible for parole and must approve a parole plan before a final decision is made by the board in Washington, D.

C. Prisoners released before their sentences expire because of good behavior time come under Turner's office, too. He said the theory here is to protect the community by having a man come out of prison under supervision for a time, "The shock of going to the penitentiary is not any greater than that of coming home for the first time," Turner said. Born Oct 24, 1912, in Lamar County, the son of Methodist minister Charles C. Turner and Estie Newman Turner, James Elmo Turner graduated from Woodlawn High School in Birmingham in 1930 and received his A.B.

The next year he worked with the Jefferson County Public Welfare Department, then received a fellowship to William and Mary College where he did residence work for a master's degree in social sciences. Completing his thesis, "A Study of 200 Recidivists Committed to the Virginia State Penitentiary," he was awarded his M.S. degree in 1941. The next two years were spent at Fairfield Steel Works where he handled social security and personnel records.

Turner was appointed U.S. probation officer in Birmingham in August, 1938, and continued in this Job until he joined the service in June, 1942. During four years in military service he was a psychiatric social worker, was commissioned in the Medical Administrative Corps, and served as chief of an educational reconditioning section. He returned to his job in Birmingham after being discharged and 10 years later came to Montgomery with the U.S. District Court.

Turner is past president of the Southeastern State Federal Probation Officers The Alabama Probation and Parole and the Alabama Chapter, American of Social Workers.
