     242.20 Training. 

    As a means of correcting the socially harmful tendencies of 
 a person committed to the commissioner of corrections, the 
 commissioner may require participation by the person in 
 vocational, physical, educational and corrective training and 
 activities and conduct and modes of life as seem best adapted to 
 fit the person for return to full liberty without danger to the 
 public welfare.  The commissioner of corrections may receive 
 money from the sale of articles manufactured by a person 
 committed to Corrections Department's custody and confined in a 
 correctional facility under the control of the commissioner and 
 expend the money so received for the purchase of materials to be 
 made into other articles for sale.
