Fannin County
Sends 377 Men To
Pen In 40 Years
HUNTSVILLE —' During the 40
year period from 1920 through
1959 a total of 109,949 individuals
were committed to the Texas
Prison System, according to
study of crime in Texas, recently
completed by Dr. R. C. Koenlnger,
director of the Department of Sp-
ciolagy. Sam Houston State
Teachers College, Huntsville.
The ""study was made by Dr.
Koeninger, a sociologist ana
criminologist, to show the trends
in prison committments for the
State and for each county in Tex-
as. *
Fannin county committed 377
persons to the prison during the
period .studied, and ranks 64 in
the state for the number of per-
sons committed during the forty
year period.
"One third; or a total of 35,989
of those committed came from
five counties in Texas,” Koeninger
said. “The five most populous
counties, Harris, with 12,943; Dal-
las, with 9,350; Bexar, with 5,322;
Tarrant, with 4,328, and El Paso,
with 4,046, send more persons to
prison, but this does not indicate
that the population of these five
counties are more criminal than
other areas.”
Koeninger bases his statement
on the ratio of committments Ao
prison for each 1,000 person^over
the 40 year period. ‘For exam-
ple,” Koeninger said, "El Paso
county has committed a total ot
21 persons for eaefr 1,000 of Its
population over the 40 year period
while Harris county committed a
total of 17 persons for each 1,000
of Its population over the same
period.”
The rating of 10.98 for Fannin
county indicates that 196 count-
ies of the state send more per-
sons tor each 1,000 of its popula-
tion, over the 40 year period.
The five counties in Texas where
the committment ratio is the high-
est are all found in West and
Northwest Texas. Dallas county
has the state’s highest ratio with
46 persons for each 1,000 in the
population during the 40 year per-
iod.

"Bui I say unto you which hear, love your *
enemies, do good to them which bate you."—
St. Luke 6:27
TrATE, it has been said, is
an illness that .will, if nut- *
tured, destroy a person. People •
have been known to become
physically as well as mentally
ill by hate which they have al-
lowed to. fester.
Madame Chiang Kai-shek
was once asked if she held
resentment* for die Japanese
and later the Chinese Reds for
what they have done to her and
her country.
She said she did not!
And then she added: In great
matters or small, hate h a
painful and bitter experience.
When we forgive, she added,
that is the beginning of true
freedom — when we are lib-
erated from ourselves.
