Rollie White * DO SOMETHING MEANINGFUL THIS SUMMER AUSTIN — A day after backing the plan in a preliminary vote, the House on Tuesday defeated a bill to force felony probationers to do un paid community service work. Several blacks in the House said Dallas Rep. A1 Granoff’s plan sounded like slavery. The bill was approved in a 66-63 tentative vote on Monday. But it failed 62-75 in Tuesday’s final vote. “1 guess I got blindsided,” Gran- off said afterwards. His plan would have required judges to make community servite work part of felony probation. Under current law, judges have the option of ordering such work. Under the Granoff hill, judges would have had to set a community work schedule of 40 to 1,000 hours, with an eight-hour weekly maxi mum. “There js not a right to proba tion,” Granoff said. “Probation is something you’re lucky to get after committing a felony. “It’s not horrible. Going to the Texas Department of Corrections is horrible.” During Monday’s debate, he said probation is a joke in many cases. Rep. Terral Smith, R-Austin, said the work program could be a bu reaucratic nightmare for local pro bation departments. “It sounds good, but I don’t think it’s worth the cost,” he said. Rep. Wilhelmina Delco, D-Austin, agreed with two other black lawmak ers who said it sounded like “slave la bor.” “We used to do that a long time ago,” Houston Rep. Harold Dutton said Monday. “We forced people to work and they didn’t get paid. We had a term for it — slavery.” Granoff said, “Slave labor is at TDC. Slave labor is not staying at home with your family, doing a few hours of work.” Also Tuesday, the House gave fi nal approval to these measures: CHINA 13-2C, Summer '£5 Jnciiulcs: dCC mciCi, Ccdainq, around. ±r&n>j}oriatxon.~i.rC CPu-tul Vititinj "Beijing, Kim.
