New Designs Sought For City-County Jail
A discussion of possible architectural designs for a proposed city-county correctional center in Lawrence concluded a two-day workshop at the Ramada Inn Wednesday. Representatives from the National Clearinghouse on Correctional Planning and Architecture (NCCPA), the CITIZEN CORRECTIONAL Services and Jail Facilities, and the Douglas County commissioners participated in the workshop.
Edith Flynn, NCCP^a representative, urged the citizens' committee to be flexible in planning the center and said there was a great need to provide space for social interaction. A prisoner rehabilitation and provide constructive alternatives to imprisonment.
Stressing that "old, maximum security, cage-type structures" are a thing of the past. Plynn said the correctional center had been blended in with community surroundings.
Due to advanced technology and design," Flynn said, "we have reached the point of providing jail security without it having to look like a zoo."
THE JAIL, environment should be made as normal as possible for its prisoners. Even the most spartan-like maximum security prison has an automatic bed and writing space and a
storage area for books. Flynn said
Ideally the correctional center would be centrally located in Lawrence, Flynn said, to insure easier access for work-release individuals. They engaged in social work with prisoners
THE COMMITTEE was appointed in May 1972 by the county commission because of the defeat of a jail proposal in a bond election in September 1971.
According to Arthur Heek, county commissioner, a one-mill levy that would provide funds for the project if approved by election is due to expire later this year.
The citizens' jail committee is scheduled to present its recommendations for correctional programs and facilities to the county commission about April 20.
Headed by Forrest Swall, University of Kansas Lecturer in social welfare, the college has numbered committees to gather data and judicial procedures in Douglas County, including information about the county sheriff, city police and the county, juvenile and district
The survey data were forwarded to Urbana, IL, for analysis at the NCCA center in Chicago.
The site for the proposed city-county correctional facility is the county-owned lot just east of the present county jail.
Men Repress Emotions Rutgers Professor Says
Men are suffering from emotional constipation, William Farrell, professor of political science at Rutgers University in New Jersey, said Wednesday night at the University sponsored by the University of Kansas Commission on the Status of Women.
"They (men) keep their emotions pent inside their systems and just cannot get out, nor can they deal with the emotions of other people very easily," he said.
Farrell, a board member of the National Organization for Women (NOW) and national coordinator of NOW's task force on women's rights, served as an administrator of the idea of "many people join" the organization.
"I think the whole process of consciousness-raising is producing awareness relationships in female-male relationships. Farrell said the problem is that women are growing through
women's liberation and men are stagnating."
Farrell's solution to the problem was not to stop women's groups but to start men's formation groups that would allow both liberals and conservatives to seek a goal of human liberation.
He said men would become socially secure only when freed from the work ethic, which casts the male as the primary source of income in the family.
The problem, he said, could be eliminated if men were willing to participate in the same growth process with, rather than against, women.
Farrell said he regarded the new movement as leading to learning relationships where men were not condemned by society for expressing both strength and weakness. The learning relationship will be the key to men's liberation he said.

WHY ARE WE HEALTHIER, BETTER PAID AND BETTER FED THAN ANY PEOPLE IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD?
Myth
Those who would destroy our trillion dollar economy liken it to a giant triangle. They envision a few "very rich" at the top with gradually descending layers of wealth and a broad base of "very poor" at the bottom. They cite this triangle as evidence of the failure of our economic system.
Fact
One cannot deny that only a few enjoy great wealth. But, a relative few are subjected to severe poverty. Statistically, the largest numbers of Americans can be found in the great middle, distributed up and down a diamond shape rather than a triangle. More Americans are better off under free enterprise than any other people in the history of the world. In fact, the triangle more nearly describes the hopeless plight of the individual in the socialist state—not the United States.
