system.
The meeting was plmldad over
by Attorney John K. deLoach oC
this city. Senator R. M. Kennetly
Lnd Repraaentattve Arthur Jonaa
of the’Kershaw county delegntm
were presanY while Repraaeatatlva
Clator Arranta, unable to attend,
sent a letter affirming his oppo
sition to the establishing of the
prison In the area. Snmtar county
was represented by Senator Shep
Nash and Repreaentatlfes Henry
Jackson, C. L. Cuttlno and Wnyae
L Clifton.
W3rndbam Manning, snpemltend-
ent of the state peniteentiary, waa
the first speaker and he outlined
the tentative program of the state
prison board relative to the expan
sion program. He said that the
state penitentiary population was
increasing yearly at the rate of
226 prisoners. Regarding ascapees,
he said the state prison farm had
15 last year whereas the penltenU-
ary in Colombia had but S. He
said that the state penal board had
for some time been considering the
removal of the penitentiary from
Columbia to Boykin and building a
modern prison in that location. He
outlined, that the present prison
was built 85 years ago with two
additkms added la Uie SO*#. ^
Mr. Manning went on record as
looking iipon prisoners as needing
rehabllatlon as well as punishment
be more secure, would have better
guards and would be twice as safe
as the one now In operation In
Columbia.
When questioned by Attorney
Harold Funderburk as to how far
the plans for the new prison had
progressed, Supt Manning declared
that an architect waa to be sent to
other prisons to ascertain costs
and also building types.
Harold Funderburk brought out
a point in favor of the pfotestants

Seuator R. M. KeBnedy, who took
tile floor at the msaftiig said la
part:
would like to speak oa the
Reetdntion. taiaofar as H ragarda
my position In the le^alature I
am In entire accord with the tm-
ITOvement of the penal altnetlon ta
Sooth Caroflna tafi I don’t know of
a better man—I think the Colonel
Is wrong In that a penal Institntkm
is a bad Influence In the eommnnl-
ty. Ton speak of a prisoner who
gets aVray’and he immediately
wants to get out of the community,
bnt he la going to get ont in the
first oar that he can.
*^e have here one of the flneaC
oommnnltles In the state. * As a
cltlsen of Camden I would like to
say that if a prisoner escapes to
Columbia and goes to a woman’s
bonse she can call her neighbor
and have her phone the police bnt
in an isolated place as thla, if a
Prisoner gets loose it Is A danger
ous sitnation. Yon feel probably
that with the added police proteq-
tlon yon can prevent n great deal
of these escapes and control them
mnch better under one manage
ment bnt I do think there are many
other places In South Carolina
where tikis prison eonld be pat
without meeting the tfnanlmons ob
jection that it has here. If we can
gefsome other place It should be
done.
