Convicts Helped By Better Diet Richmond, Sept. 22. Scientific studies In the menu for the convicts engaged in building roads in Virginia have brought about a 10 per cent increase in their efficiency in the last six months, it was learned yesterday Major Rice M.
Youell, superintendent of the State Peniten tiary, and Henry G. Shirley, State Highway Commissioner, have gone thoroughly into the matter of feeding the 2.000 convicts at the twenty-three camps and as the result of an entire rearrangement of diet. Viewed from a scientific angle, are finding that "it pays to feed the convicts well." Keep Tab on Cost and Kesnlt Both the superintendent of the penitentiary and the Highway Department head have assigned men to nothing else except keep tab on the cost and results. The first six months of the experiment, Mr. Shirley said' yesterday, has disclosed that by giving the prisoners plenty of food, vegetables, -meats, not of the, luxurious variety, but solid and substantial and fresh, their efficiency has Increased 10 per cent.
"We found that to get best re-, suits and to keep the prisoners working we had to feed them well," Mr. Shirley said. "Major Youell has the matter of feeding the men in charge. He has designated some one especially to look after the menus and I have designated A. H.
Pettigrew to check oyer the costs and results from a' road-building standpoint. A comparison Is made monthly of condition. For the last six months Mr. Pettigrew has been devoting his entire time to this scientific study in co-operation with the officials of Major Youell, and we believe at the end of a year's time will have some interesting faets." Short Ration Oone Forever Short rations of an indifferent character are things of the past in Virginia as far as it relates to road-building convicts, judging from the results so far obtained from the experiments. The Highway Department Is determined to find out Just how greatly the convict road building power can be devoted.
Poor food and work do not go together, the officials agreed at the outset when a conference was called of all the sergeants of the twenty-three road camps and Major Youell and Commissioner Shlrely outlined their program. The sergeants were given definite instructions and menus to go by in preparing food for the prisoners. Kxwriment Complete Success "Plenty of good. wholesome, energy providing food." was the edict. Schedules were worked out and much data complied.
The experiment, so far. has been declared a complete success. "We know 'exactly where we stand," said Mr. "Shirley yesterday. "We know the.
costs and the results obtained. Every rnopth each item of expense is checked agaii't roads constructed and comparisons made with the various At the present pace the ultimate hopes of the officials conducting the scientific studies are to have the most efficient road convict force in the United States.
