Prisoners Learn Coal Mine Work Before Beginning Duties
The 82 inmates from North Carolina’s State Prison attend a mining school at the Coal Glenn mine near Sanford. Superintendent George Ross Poll reports they receive safety, first aid, and theory instruction from J S Wakefield, a Columbia University graduate with mining experience. Prisoners are all volunteers and some have prior mining work. Plans call for 75 more inmates soon and up to 150 total, yielding an expected state revenue near 100000 dollars yearly and up to 500000 over the contract period with Carolina Coal Co. The mine, described as safe and modern, was inspected by the U.S. Bureau of Mines after a 1925 disaster at a different site.
