Townwnd Quality Photographs Superintendent Hits Academic Penologists Defendst State Spatem In a report to the board of control, Supt. George L. Morris of the state reformatory described the parole process he has instituted and the philosophy under which the institution is operating relating to paroles.

Referring to the of thinking produced by the academic categorical group of he said it is that they lack the practical knowledge to enable them to differentiate between purely academic and valid procedures relative to He said that the Osborne association, a leading national group of social workers, is filled with individuals in this fold and that to a large extent it is dominating the field of penology in this country. He quoted from a report of the Osborne association in 1939: is doubtful whether the Nebraska svstem can iustly be called parole at all It Is the Inescapable Impression that parole lies In the selection of the governor. secretary of state and attorney general as members of the board. Political Pressures. "These are elective officials subject to political debts and pressures.

They have little time to Rive to parole applications with the result that too much thority must be given to the chief proba- Ion office," Pointing out that the quotation is a classic example of the thinking of the penologist," Morris said, with this type of background apparently feel that a parole authority must be a professional group entirely disassociated with both the institutions and the societies they serve. Never Tolerates Graft. is true that in many states the game of politics is played on a basis of graft and corruption. What the Osborne association does not understand is that Nebraska has never tolerated graft in public office, and I doubt if the people of the state ever will. "Our board of parole Is a more effective organization than of the parole authorities established as a arate and appointive body.

A parole authority should be established primarily to protect the public, and It must be conversant with what the public will accept In the wav of parole because the parole process is based on community acceptance of the Individual released." Morris contends that professional logical educational background Is not necessary. "The parole board is the agency of check to Insure the protection of society." he savs "Common sense Is the prime requisite of a board member Progress Heport. The reformatory, he told the control board, ts now submitting to the parole board a "parole progress Copies will be furnished to ludges, county attorneys and sheriffs Involved In the various cases. If the parole board to hear the cases the Information given these officials will be an aid to them In submitting recommendations to the board. The first operation of this system will be tested in one parole hearing In October.

The judge already has expressed appreciation of the new system. Morris expressed opposition to consideration of parole as soon as the Individual becomes legally eligible for one "Consideration for parole must be based on the individual attitude, what he has actually accomplished to prepare himself for release and the possibilities of the release situation." he explained When the Institution is satisfied parole Is a fitting step, thev have he obligation of transmitting the information to the community affected."
