Jail director
Confers With
City Officials
The new Director of the A-j
■ laska Jail Sysiem conferred
i with Mayor Lee Hettinger and
J members of the city courc I
j Wednesday regarding the city
' operating the U. S. Federal
, Jail.
Koy Casey, the new director,
i arrived on the early plane
Wednesday and returned on
the evening plane. Casey has
been granted authority to en
ter into an agreement with
the-citv for renial of the local
I jail at a fee of $1 per year.
! He said he was pleased with
■ the present operation of the
Kodiak jail- However, under
| the new jail system all federal
j prisoners with long sentences
j will serve their time in a
prison farm which will be con
structed in the Anchorage
area.
Casey explained that the
new system would provide
work for prisoners and would
aid in their rehabilitation.
The new director has many
years in prison work. Prior to
his coming to Ahchorage seve
ral week ago he visited several
federal prison camps in the
states.
He indicated that while the
! Morningside Sanitarium in
Washington offers good care
of the insane. Alaska should
have such an institution in the
territory for the mentally ill.
“What Alaska needs is leg
islation that will provide for
the care of the insane,” Casey
said. “Why should a person
that is insane be held in a jail?
If a man breaks his leg he is
not taken to jail, he is taken
to the hospital.”
