I have just had another interview with Mr. azimuth. He said:' '"I've got to have the support of the nempupers‘. I've trot to have the support of the public in general. I know the power and intiueetee of those I've Trot to tittht. "I'm going to ask the state for more money next year.

It is just as solemn a duty to protect and help - paroled man make good who wants to so stnight as to put a professional criminal hack in prison when the parole in violated. Here's a sighed letter, signed by a judge. telling' how he requested a holdup nuut,-eautrht redhanded hold- ing up n hotel, caught gun in hand, to plead guilty so he could be given a lighter sentence. The judge writes, and it's signed, how he told him-- promised him, in fact-that he could get out in a year if he'd plead guilty. "Chicago originates ieighty per cent of Illinois' criminals d ninety-eight per cent of the we?“ the parole board. Chicago and Svicinity is the seat of almost all of our erimimu troubles in Illinois. ' "One puroled mun, here in Chicago, was grabbed by the l police sixteen times when the police had nothing on hit: at I". Some of the crimes he was questioned about were commit- ted when he.wto at work. Luckily for him he had an employer who would help him. He wu finnilr trons- ferred to another eityc-ao escape the police. "Dort't think that I am not going to release men from the prisons on parole. I am. But I'm going to try to pick men who will make good. The majority of prisoners paroled to rur- al communities make good. The ma- jority paroled to the big cities dont. “Here’s a case of one man who' committed thirty-one hold-ups with a Run. Through influence he was per- mitted to plead guilty to larceny. What do you think of a state's at- torney that would peimit that? Tim sort of a deal’is pretty close to con- spiracy. Don't you hink that that state's attorney should be impeached? "These men must be willing to set aside all thought of politics. I 1rant men to whom I an turn for help. Before any man is released on parole to go back to any of these towns, I want to be able to satisfy myself on aevenl points: 2. I want to know if some man or some company will give him dyn- ployment and help him. I wantlto know if there is a chance that he will become tt useful citizen. ' Several Points "l. I want a complete, honest, hu- man report on him. I want to know if, from his record, he will go to work when he gets out or whether he will buy a gun and go to holding people up. a.

Continued arrests, if the than is inno- cent. will almost imply drive him back into crime. We don't wnnt that. It is our solemn duty In redeem him. "What do you think of that judge? Rotten, isn't it?
