Dr. Dymond Speech (Continued from page 8) In the case of older girls and hoys, greater emphasis is placed upon vo- cational training. I do not mean by -thig that we attempt to train the stu- dent fully in any certain trade or vo- cation. They are not usually in our care long enough for this, but we do strive to give them a grasp of the fundamentals in the hope this will be of some value when they take thelr place in society again..." "During 1957 our admissions in- creased, in the case of girls 61.28% and boys 23.799. Our Girls' School at Galt was built to "accommodate 100; today the population is almost 200. To help relieve this we set up a small unit for about 25 of the youngest girls. This was primarily a further experiment in classifica- tion; to take very young girls when first sent to us and to try to train them completely apart from older THIS IS THE MAN whose sure, skilled hand is needed now to guide Canada out of this NOT TO THE POLITICIAN OR TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE AS SUCH; BUT TO THE MAN LESTER PEARSON BECAUSE OF HIS PERSONAL QUALITIES, HIS POWERFUL INITIATIVE, AND PERSEVERANCE, DISPLAYED IN ATTEMPTING TO PREVENT OR LIMIT WAR OPERATIONS AND TO RESTORE PEACE."

" "In addition to the various indus- tries carried on in our institutions we have co-operated with the Depart- ment of lands and Forests in particu- lar in projects of great value to the Province, These have included fire- fighting, conservation projects, bush- clearing and burning, re-forestation, clearing camp and park sites, and such, These are most valuable pha- ses of our programme as they give men an opportunity to show their in- itiative and ability, and also give us an opportunity to assess the value of our reformative work. Since these projects are out in the open, only very little in the way of security measurers can be carried on, yet I think I am correct when I say that not one man attempted to escape and indeed there was & good deal of rivalry for these jobs. These projects were also valu- able to us from the standpoint of the health of the men. ...."" Dr. Dymond referred to the special centres -- Cline for Alcoholics, Drug Addicts and others, including the treatment of women inmates, "A word on after-care might not be amiss here. Our own Parole con- tinues to serve a useful function and I believe a very valuable one. Dur- ing the year 1957, 766 men and 47 women were. granted parole. of this number, 568 men and 33 women syccessfully completed their parole, while 188 men and 12 women violated parole. This figure, 24.6% failures, is in keeping with the experience of other comparable jurisdictions. The rehabilitation officers are con- scientious men, interested in thelr work 'and in those with whom they work, constantly striving to do what- ever is possible in behalf of thelr charges. Many private, outside a- gencies are very active in this, field " "I want to make some comment on the matter of stkff. For the first time in many years, I am advised, the staff of this Department is at full strength, with the exception of a few professional personnel. This Is an excellent state of affairs and as a result of better salaries and the shor- ter work week recently introduced in the service, we can expect and de- mand higher standards in our staff members. I would be remiss in my duty if I neglected to say to this House that I have the greatest res- pect and admiration for the staff of this Department. Their loyalty and devotion to duty is remarkable, to put it mildly, and has on many oc- casions been a source of amazement to me." 4 CHE PETERBOROUGH ON (010) i DIAL "Turning now, 'Mr. Chairmen, to |B Industrial Farms and ¥ creased only 48, or less than % per previous year.
