Crowded cells major issue in suit
United Press International
AUSTIN — The state and plain
tiffs in a massive suit challenging
operations of Texas prisons are
near agreement concerning im
proved medical care for inmates,
but the state will never agree to a
demand for separate cells for each
of the 30,000 inmates. Attorney
General Mark White said
Tuesday.
White said he expects the
agreement concerning medical
9
care to be filed by Friday with
U.S. District Judge William
Wayne Justice in Tyler. The attor
ney general said each side in the
suit is expected to suggest solu
tions to other prison problems,
such as overcrowding, the guard-
inmate ratio and number of in
mates allowed per cell.
“Our proposal is to submit an
agreed plan where we can. Where
we can’t, we will submit our plan
and they will submit their plan,
and the judge can choose one or
the other or something in be
tween,” White said.
The federal judge instructed
Texas to come up with a plan for
providing separate cells for each of
the 30,000 prison inmates, some
of whom are now housed three to a
cell.
White said an emergency $35
million construction program to
provide sleeping quarters by Nov.
1 for 2,880 inmates will enable the
prisons to keep two inmates per
cell and give beds to about 2,600
inmates now required to sleep on
floors.
Asked if the state would ever
agree to the one-man, one-cell
concept. White replied, “No sir,
never.”
“Ov^'-nrowding is the central
feature oi mis whole lawsuit,” he
said. “Three people are in cells
originally designed for one and
then adapted for two, and as a re
sult we’ve got three people in cells
of 60 to 65 square feet. We’re
trying to get these people off the
floor, that’s the main thing we re
trying to accomplish right now.”
White said the state will appeal
the portion of Justice’s order pro
hibiting keeping two inmates in a
cell, saying such housing arrange
ments are neither unconstitution
al nor correctionally unaccept
able.
The attorney general said he
will oppose any efforts to place a
freeze on prison population, or to
release inmates before they are
ready to return to society.
“I don’t think the people of this
state want to let prisoners out just
because they are crowded,” he
said.
Haynes said he would nottolf
ate any more “unprofessioni
treatment of Mrs. Daniel byof !
cials in Liberty County.
Haynes said items irrelevanltf
any criminal inquiry such as lit
driver’s license, purse, cosmefc
financial records and her cli
dren’s birth certificates wen
taken Feb. 4 by Eckols.
Haynes said his client ws 1
forced to forfeit her property wilt!
out a hearing or due process
“She has been subjectedli
some very curious circumstance
and some very harsh circwiE
ances since the indictment tk
catapulted her to page one,
Haynes said.

Board President Kathlyn Gil
liam said Monday representatives
of the Black Coalition to Maximize
Education, the East Dallas inter-
venors and the North Dallas inter-
venors have agreed to attend.
No word had been received
from the original plaintiffs in the
case nor from the NAACP, Gil
liam said.
However, the NAACP did not
greet the idea favorably last week.
“I don’t know what would be
accomplished in that meeting,”
said NAACP attorney Ernest
Haywood. “In a nutshell, the
NAACP doesn’t decide legal mat
ters without attorneys. If any
NAACP official did attend, you
can rest assured the NAACP
would not make any decision in
that meeting.”
U.S. District Judge William M.
Taylor Jr. is scheduled to begin
the rehearing of the desegregation
case as ordered by the 5th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals in New
Orleans nearly three years ago.
Haynes was hired Friday h
Mrs. Daniel’s family. Hewilljoc

unsure whether they will askfoi
