Walla Walla County bears the cost of p r o s e c u t i o n for penitentiary crimes, relation of crime to biochemical imbalance and the governor's master plan for prisons. Asbury said he has received questions from a prisoner and a penitentiary employe and will receive them from the inmates' resident governmental council. He said some legitimate questions have been "veiled" in a long statement, which is "typical of something like this." Brooks. Asbury, Baker and forum moderator John Reese will meet with their questions in hand and decide which ones will be used in the forum. No questions will be taken from the floor. Questioning will be split into three areas. Baker will ask about philosophy of prison reform. Brooks about c o m m u n i t y relations and Asbury about mechanics of running the prison. In a letter to the participants, Reese explained the format of the forum. He said questions will be asked only by the three newsmen, no questions will come from the floor, asking of questions will be rotated, "more or less," but one questioner will be allowed to develop particular subject areas.
