PRISON NO HELP
HIS VIEW CHANGED. LOS ANGELES, October 14. Asa Keyes, famous District Attorney, who has sent many thousands of men to gaol, does not believe now that a term in prison eyer helped anybody. Keyes is free again after having served a year’s sentence for accepting bribes. “Prison certainly didn’t help me spiritually, morally, or physically,” he says, “but I am afraid that there is no substitute for it. They are building them bigger and better than ever. “Lack of education is what is filling prisons,” he added. “You would be surprised at the number of prisoners who can neither read nor write.”
