CHAIN GANG DISPUTE DEAD
ATLANTA, Go., Sept. 27—Geo
rgia will make no effort in the
federol courts to compel Massa
chusetts to return a Georgia
chain gang fugitive the south
ern state. Some weeks ago, Gov.
Charles F. Hurley of Massachu
setts refused to honor a requisi
tion by Gov. F. D. Rivers of Geo
rgia for the return of a prisoner
who escaped from a Georgia
chain gang.
Gov. Hurley’s refusal was bas
ed on “humanitarian” principles.
He said reports showed chain
gang prisoners in Georgia were
treated like beasts instead of hu
man beings. Thereupon, Gover
nor Rivers declared he would ap
peal to the federal courts. He
has changed his mind. A few
days ago he paroled aNegro chain
gang prisoner on condition that
he move to Massachusetts and
stay there.
