Is it to keep men in isolation so as to prevent the possibility of further crime? That is undoubtedly true of some in-mates of our prisons. But in the majority of cases, the modern prison has a much larger, much more important role: To re-habilitate those who enter the institution and lead them back to normal, useful lives in society. It is a well known fact that one of the greatest aids in almost all types of rehabilitation is music. It is also widly accepted that the value of music in this regard is greatly increased if the persons who are being helped are given the opportunity to create and nroduee - as well as merely beast?" We're not dealing with beasts. No Matter what else they may seem, Utah prisoners are, after all, human beings who are paying their debt to society. Un-fortunately, the few who are habitual trouble-maker- s and the ringleaders of disturbances' which crop up at the prison from time to time are the ones who attract the greatest publicity. But they are a very small minority. Also in the institution are many, many men who are there as a result of relatively mtnotf violations. There are many one-tim- e offend-ers. There are great numbers who can and will be remolded into useful, valuable citizens. But they need help and it's up to us to help them help themselves.

This newspaper feels that these facts combine to point out a dire need at our own Utah State prison. The Point of the Mountain institution is without a piano. Furthermore, prison funds have been expended and it will be im-possible for them to purchase one for some time. The inmates of our prison should be allowed the benefits of a piano. YouVe heard the express-ion. "Music tames the wilflest be used for church services and for various types of recreational activities. It would be of inesti-mable value in accomplishing the important task that has been assigned to our state prison officials. . The South East Independent has taken the preset of supply-ing a piano to the prison upon its own shoulders, and hopes to be able to do so in the near future with the cooperation of its readers.
