| description |
Leaflet issued by the Statewide Campaign Committee for the Abolishment of the Convict Contract System, explaining why the campaign has failed thus far: "No successful effort was made to develop a comprehensive system of employing convicts then under lease, so that the leasing system could be abolished." The leaflet outlines a basic plan for convict employment that includes the manufacture of supplies that are needed in the state: "Alabama convicts should first make goods for our State's own use, and, if they produce a surplus, we will sell it to other States, whose needs are exactly the same as ours." |
