PRISUNERUWI]ING | SCORED BY HOUSE Committee Asks for Two More Institutions in Report Made Year Ago. B the Associated Press The crowding of prisoners into Fed- eral penitentiaries, eited today as one of the causes of the riots in the Leaven- worth, Kans.. institution, was denounced in A report by a special committee of ihe House nf Representatives made a vear ago after a survey of prison con- ditions, The riots followed closely similar out- breaks in prisons at Clinton and Au- burn and served to center attention on conditions in the Federal institutions, where nearly 19.000 convicts are con- | fined.
