Iowa Proposes State Farm Workhouses For Delinquent Jobless
Des Moines reporters say the Iowa legislature may approve a state system to place drunkards immoral women and shiftless individuals in six district farm workhouses. Counties fund farms staff and supply food clothing and medical care while prisoners work the land. Sentences would be thirty sixty or ninety days with wages shared with families or kept by the inmate. The plan aims to curb jailhouse recidivism and sheriff profits from feeding inmates.
