I think we can do without a good part of this program for our rapists and murderersto provide them with brandnew buildings. furniture. dining hall and accommodationsuntil the budget is balanced. inflation stemmed and the national debt reduced. It may be interesting to note that the prison proposed to be constructed by the terms of the amendment of the gentleman from Illinois is supposed to be for maximum custody prisoners. As of January 29. 1959. there were in the following U.S. penitentiaries. maximum custody institutions. 1.049 minimum custody prisoners. as follows: Atlanta. 124. Leavenworth. 212. Lewisburg. 266. McNeil Island. 235. and at Terre Haute. 212. And among these minimum custody prisoners were bootleggers. violators of the immigration laws. cleancut gentlemen forgers and embezzlers. and violators of the Selective Service Act. Mr. Chairman.
