[Letter from Thomas B. White to T. N. Carswell - January 14, 1953]
A letter written to Mr. T. N. Carswell, Abilene, Texas, from Thomas B. White, Chairman, Board of Pardons and Paroles, Texas, dated January 14, 1953. The letter is a reply from White to a request made by Carswell for a Full Pardon for Subject 121,140. White dissertates on the five-year "rule" —"the well-known research criminologists in New York City, Sheldon and Eleanor Glueck, have made many surveys on discharged and paroled prisoners to see how many led a law-abiding life after discharge—they used the five-year period on all cases that they investigated." Carswell holds the opinion that the rule is not flexible in its application to each parolee.
