New Prison Board Man Says
REIDSVILLE, Ga. (UPI) —
Georgia’s new Corrections
Board member says the concept
that inmates are in prison for
punishment should not be for
gotten in attempts to also pro
vide them with rehabilitation.
“I feel there should be an op
portunity and an effort made to
rehabilitate prisoners, but at the

same time they are put in there
as punishment,” said E. B. Reg
ister Sr., a Reidsville bank
president.
Register was appointed to the
Corrections Board Tuesday by
Gov. Lester Maddox, replacing
Jack Kennedy of Collins, who
resigned.
The governor, in making the
10
appointment called the Reids
ville banker a "successful busi
ness administrator, not some po
litician.”
Kennedy resigned from the
board saying he had philosophi
cal differences with the govern
or and did not believe he would
be reappointed when his term
expired.
“I suppose it’s proper to re
sign when you know you’re not
going to be reappointed,” Mad
dox commented on the resigna
tion.
The resignation came just
days after a flareup on the gov
ernor’s Penal Reform Commit
tee over the chairman of the
Corrections Board, who was de
nounced as unfit to serve by the
committee, but defended by the
governor.
Register said that while he
had no background in prison
work, he had a "combination”
philosophy of penology, includ
ing both punishment and reha
bilitation.
But, he said he would reserve
further comment on board poli
cies until he had a chance to
participate in some of the cor
rections board’s deliberations.

Prisoners Call
For Halt In
Integration
ATLANTA (UPD — A delega
tion of state prison Inmates—
both White and Negro — have
called for an injunction to halt
integration at Reidsville State
Prison.
If integration is not stopped,
the inmates said in an appeal
to U.S. District Judge Albert
Henderson, there would be
"mass violence” in the prison.
The inmates referred to a fed
eral court order Issued last
June, calling for integration of
Georgia prisons by January
1969.
Instead, the prisoners urged a
"freedom of choice” plan of In
tegration in their petition, and
said any other plan would "be
met with violent resistance by
the majority of both the white
and black inmates.”
They also complemented pris
ion officials for doing a “re>
; markable job” in keeping ordef
| in the segregated system.

! fication of a murder victim,
■ whose dismembered legs were
: found in an out-of-the-way pond.

Part of the Reidsville prison
where new prisoners are housed
is already integrated. The in
mates said no violence had
broken out there because the
new prisoners “have not de
veloped the resentment, tensions
and violence that the majority
of the white and black inmates
of the main prison population
possess.”
