Fisher Urges Prison Labor To Boost State Industry
Speech by Fisher advocates converting the Georgia state farm near Milledgeville into a large prison complex of 5 000 to 6 000 acres. He argues equipment worth 150 000 dollars could produce clothing and other goods, creating work for 65 convicts and saving the state money. He cites potential gains from road labor, farming, and manufacturing, claiming 70 percent of prisoners could join industrial work. The plan envisions a centralized facility and expanded convict employment.
