MORE STATE FARMS.
For the Hosiery Mill Convicts Says
Mr. A. K. Sanders, Chairman of
Penitentiary Board.
Columbia Record, 2Sth.
A. K. Sanders, of Hagood, chairman
of the penitentiary board, in disk
-J 11 1 v. ,3
cussing j.ne meeiang 01 me uuinu
yesterday, briefly outlined his position
as to the best disposition to be
made of the 200 or more convicts
now employed in the hosiery mill of
the State penitentiary when the
maintenance of the mill will be suspended
under act of the legislature
annulling the contract with Jo:hn M.
I Graham.
L "My idea,'' said Mr. Sanders, "has
? been formed after extensive experi
I ence with prison management
r throughout a number of States,
where I have observed the operation
of the prison systems. I believe that
the operation of. say five or six,
State firms located in different parts
of the S;ate as experiment farms
wliere the farmers of the community
inay learn practical lessons of scienforminor
i<; the best solution to
?
the problem of the employment of
convicts."
} Florida Commission.
^ "Some time since," said Mr. Sanders,
"a commission from the State
of Florida visited our penitentiary to
gather ideas for the establishment
and successful management of a
plantation of larger proportions but
along the same lines as South Carolina's
farm is managed. Advanced
thought on the prison question in
every State is turning to the running
k of farms as the best method of emfr
ploying convict labor.
* Mr. Sanders stated that such a
^ course would have to be worked out
ft ov.iy, but he was of the opinion
{ that ultimately it would be the wisest
disposition of the convicts in the
penitentiary.
Mr. Sanders stated that the board
had not definitely decided to hire the
convicts to the supervisors of the various
counties to be used on the
roads, stating his opposition to this
on the ground that their health might
k? hv too sudden expos
UC guuuu^v.4 w
k ure to the weather and outdoor work
L after having been accustomed to
W work inside the walls of the peni'
tentiary.
"We have advertised for bids fr^n
companies who wish to hire the labor
at some wood or leather work in
the penitentiary, it is possible that
if good propositions are received, we
will put all the men at work in the
manufactory to be installed. If the
^ propositions are not satisfactory then
f the placing of the men on the roads
will be considered." said Mr. Sanders.

I Hon. A. W. Jones, Comptroller GenB

Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your

jL you say:

In reply thereto, I am nerewun
B enclosing you copy of my letter of
V June 30, 1913, in reference to the
same matter, which I conceive fully
^^w>^ers your request, and is a suffi'
Kent reply to your letter of August
In addition to this, I beg to quote
you a portion of the last paragraph
of my letter of July 3, 1913, in regard
|fto this same matter, in which I say
hat: "If you will present the papers
i^Ho my office, I will prepare return
I Lid file the same with Judge Warts,
Provided you are willing to accept
liy advice in the matter."
R T cannot and will not consent to
the employment of any counsel in
this case; for, as stated in the previous
correspondence, I see no necessity
for i'; and. further, should
such employment be approved by me
for you as comptroller general, this
office would either be morally and
I ??
legally bound to pay adequate com
pensation to the attorneys vvho are
employed, or the fact of such appro- #
val would be used as a ground for
asking the general assembly, at its II
next session, to pay counsel fees for
a State officer, which employment A
and which fees are entirely uniiec- . ?
essarv and unauthorized by law.
Your request for this approval is
respectfully declined.
Yours very truly, ^ J
