Says Federal Penal Director '•«* Tar Heel Prison Discipline Is Tough PROVIDENCE, R. I. (UP?)—An (distant Rhode Island attorney general wjlo toured North Caro lina s prison system reports that the federal prisons director con siders the Tar Heel penal ', ojper-. ation “a tough one as fat as1 discipline was concerned.” F. Thomas O’Halloran Thursday right on his return from a four day tour in North Carolina quoted Federal Prisons Director James V. Bennett as saying “many Oth er prisons in the Southern stated are tar worse.” , O’Halloran and Rhode Island r State Police Capt. Arthur Newton stopped in Washington Thursday on their way home. I The two had been investigating charges that two convicts fighting extradition in Rhode Island had been mistreated in the North Carolina prisons system befor| they fled from a unit in the mount tains of Jackson County, N. C$ Thanksgiving night. ■ The two, John A. Powell, 30, 5 ami Japies Hammond, 33, were - captured in Rhode Island a few . days after their escape and sailji . they had been imprisoned ifl . “dungeons of hell.” H- wever, O’Halloran said again t | Thursday night he saw no evi ] [dence of cruel and unusual punish 3 I meat in North Carolina. : o t O Halloran also disputed the charges by Attorney William G.. Grande of Providence that North [ Carolina authorities tried to " | “brain-wash” him. 5 i Grande and O’Halloran' had ar ‘ ■ gued during the tour and parted : j a ays. 1 1 The official investigating team J _ i___fniinH nn HnnffP c* 1 t c e 5 B i i 5 s y a a n t e d e r p il 1111’ ' --- - — ors of hell as Grande had said be foura. “North Carolina officials are not the type of people to give you a show tour,” OTHalloran said a g a i n contradicting that which Grande had charged. “They were very fair. Anything we want ed to see, they' let us see. “They treated us wonderfully down there.” Gov. Terry Sanford, who issued the invitation for the investigation, said in Raleigh Thursday he hop ed "we will never run into aBr oth^r Grande.” > <o • Grande had some reason %*f publicizing himself,” Sanford criy ! cized. “He did not want to fihd j the truth.
