Plans Farm Dormitory Construction by the spring of 1966 of a farm dormitory that would separate first offenders from other convicts.

Much of the program depends on approval at the November election of the $167 million bond issue.

The State near LaGrange $1 Reformatory, million to renovate existing dormitories, $800,000 for a new dormitory complex and 000 to convert the reformatory's front section into a reception center. Wingo told the newsmen that he couldn't stress too strongly a continuous intensive guard training program.

Hints At End Of Patronage He spoke specifically of guard training in riot control, escape procedures, and post rotation.

Perry Mine Picketing Permitted Hazard, Ky. (-A modified order was entered in Perry Circuit 'Court yesterday to permit four pickets at each of the two entrances to Blue Diamond No. 1 coal mine at Leatherwood.

The order was agreed to by attorneys for the and the United Mine Workers and replaces a restraining order that barred all picketing at the installation. The new order retained much of the language in the original document, however, prohibited pickets from carrying arms, using abusive language or intimidating employes. UMW officials had no immediate comment on the ruling that allows limited picketing. The mine became the site of frequent picketing after the company did not renew its contract with the UMW last fall.

B. Everett Jordan, to prevent unusually high yield farms from having their excess production figured in their new allotment.

By IVAN SWIFT Courier-Journal and Times Bureau Washington The Senate Agriculture Committee yesterday amended and reported out a House-passed bill to add poundage controls to existing acreage controls of fluecured tobacco. The committee vote was 9 to 5. The senate will probably vote on it next week. Most of the amendments first allotment under poundwere offered by Sen. John age-acreage is determined, the Sherman Cooper, Kentucky Republican, to protect burley growers.

Application Limited The bill applies only to fluecured tobacco growers this year, but burley, Kentucky's major crop, could be added next year. A two-thirds vote of approval of the affected growers is necessary for the new controls to become law. It is being pushed through Congress because there is a huge oversupply of tobacco. One of Cooper's major amendments would protect small growers--those with a half-acre or less. Under existing law, allotments of this size can't be cut.

Explains Spending Policy The warden promised area residents that officials will select with "painstaking care" the trusties and prisoners signed to the farm dormitory. Cannon answered the oftasked question of "Why spend so much on adult felons?" He said "people do commit crimes and they come to us and return to society.

How long they stay in here depends on what we do for them. We feel it is better to restore these people than to build $8 or $10 million institutions." He also expressed the hope that "we can abolish capital punishment." Capital punishment, Cannon said, is contrary to all correction philosophy and present thinking about rehabilitation of law breakers. He said life sentences with parole in capital cases should be retained in Kentucky. 4 Sessions To Review Reports Courier-Journal Bureau Frankfort, Fantus economic development report on 1 Central Kentucky will be reviewed in detail at four area meetings, State Commerce Commissioner Katherine Peden said yesterday.
