START WORK ON WORLD'S MOST MODERN PRISON New Federal Penitentiary to Be Located on 26Acre Tract. LEJWISBURG, Pa., April 2. 'Preliminary construction has started on the world s most modern prison the new United States federal penitentiary for the northeastern district on a twenty-six-acre tract in Kelly township, Pennsylvania. Construction work on the general outline and the first unit is in charge of the Great Lakes Construction Company of Chicago. The contract, awarded for $2,781,000, calls for completion of the first section, to accommodate about 1,500 prisoners, in 425 working days. The entire project covers a tenyear building program, an expenditure of about $12,000,000 and a penitentiary to accommodate 5,000 prisoners to be drawn from the northeastern section of the United States. Grading Work First The builders’ first work was grading of the site by removing from eight to ten inches of the top soil over the twenty-six-acre area, jurisdiction over which has been ceded the federal government by Pennsylvania. The wall, which will surround the tract, will rise twenty-one feet and will be eight feet below the surface. Estimates of materials to be \ 'ised included 3.500,000 bricks, 650,000 square feet of cement block, 65,000 barrels of cement, 70,000 tons of sand, 60,000 tons of cut stone, and 30,000 tons of other stone. Wells are being dug to provide adequate water supply. The Reading railroad has run a two-mile siding to the tract. Electric lines and telephone wires are being strung from here. Embraces New Ideas Within the walls construction will express some of the new ideas in prison arrangement and penal practice to be developed at the penitentiary. The familiar “big house” of most prisons will be missing. Accommodations will range from a small block with inside cells for less tractable inmates to small dormitory apartments for the most peaceable prisoners, offering them living quarters on a par wit hthose of an aver-age-salaried person. Conduct and character will determine occupancy of the more favored dormitories. Inside the walls, too, will be buildings providing kitchen, baking, refrigerating, butchering, and manufacturing facilities; classrooms and laboratories; a hospital; a radio room; a theater and auditorium and a comfortable library. Outdoors extensive fields for farming and dairying have been planned. Bats are animals, not birds. They suckle their young at the breast and are classed by zoologists as flying mammals.
