Because a man can render a greater service on the farm or on the roads than behind the bars, as many men as possible should be put out into the open for the more essential service. Risks must be taken which in ordinary times would be unwise. There may be defections, betrayals of trusts, desertions, but so there are in the armed forces of the nation. It is safe to assume that they will be insignificant in comparison with the advantages of the policy as a whole. It cannot be expected that a plan ...which involves such a variety of operations and which calls for the co-operation of so many diverse official agencies can be carried to a successful conclusion without some form of centralized direction. Obvi- ously, the only possible source of such direction is the Gov- ernor of the Commonwealth. In the conviction that the effective mobilization of the labor power of our convict population is a matter of sufficient moment to the Commonwealth and to the country at large to warrant an appeal to your interest and co-operation, the Commission respectfully submits the following mode of procedure: 44 Report of Penal Commission 1 i ) That the Governor call conferences of the Committee of Public Safety of the State, of the Board of Pardons, of leading Judges of the Courts of Criminal Jurisdiction, of the Trustees of the nine Industrial Farms, of the Wardens and Inspectors of the several State prisons and of the Commissioners of some of the more populous counties for the purpose of securing the complete co-operation of all the official agencies necessary to carry on the program to a successful conclusion.
