The committee's work is aimed implementing sweeping re forms proposed by the Fauteux royal commission in 1956 and follows an Ottawa federal - pro- vincial conference on Canadian penal problems last fall. POSSIBLE PROPOSALS Canadians can look for some imaginative 'proposals by the committee, It might suggest greater use of convicts in developing public pro- at |Jects that otherwise might go un- | institutions in nine countries, be-| eveloped, such as national and provincial parks. It likely also will urge that greater emphasis be put on skilled prison staff and less on tall 'walls and imposing cell blocks. Another suggestion might have to do with the fate of the conviet on release: How is he to stay clear of crime if society will not accept him when he's paid his time? How can he make a living if he cannot find a job? The committee might suggest some kind of public education program intended to alleviate this problem. ONLY RECOMMENDATIONS The committee will only recom- mend action , however; it will be up to the government then to im- plement the suggestions. {mostly provided by volunteer |agencies--are adequate, a new {approach to handling drug ad- dicts, treatment of women of- Ruthority Land Buy Loan Only TORONTO (CP) -- The Metro- politan Toronto and Region Con- servation Authority has been no- (tified by the Ontario department |of lands and forests that payment {made by the department on a {parcel of land for reforestation |in the Orangeville area was only ia loan, Fred Munn, secretary of the Toronto body, said the depart- ment was trying to change its agreement covering purchase of land for reforestation purposes with seven conservation authori- ties.

The department has notified the seven groups that the contri- bution is a no-interest loan. The | authorities say the payment is an outright grant. Other authorities affected are This will cost money. It could {run in to the millions over the 10 year implementation period the suggestions will be designed for. | One of the question s already in (the back of the government's mind is whether Canadians will [be willing to foot the bill for a {better system of handling the {country's law offenders. Young Woman Dead In Jail OTTAWA (CP) A young woman prisoner died early Tues- day in the federal women's prison at Kingston, Ont., a penitentiary commission spokesman said Wed- nesday. The woman was identified as Gordon Beatrice Kim, a Negress about 23. She was sentenced in Toronto, but the commission spokesman lacked details as to her offence, when she was sen- tenced or for how long. The young woman was last seen alive by a prison matron at 3:30 a.m. Tuesday. She was found dead a half-hour later. The spokesman said an autopsy was performed and no obvious cause of death found. The woman is understood to have spent about a month re- cently in a mental hospital at Kingston, but was returned to prison later, | | the Ganaraska, Upper Thames, | Moira, Ausable, Grand and Sau- |geen.
