Introduction
to another prison). Statistics from the series now exist for every year from 1926to
the present. Before 1978the series collected no information on race, but in 1978
the series began compiling a yearend
count of prisoners of each race.

~-
Years havingonly the more broadly defined category of prisoners are 1926to
1936 and 1980to 1982. For 1926to
1936 the only available data are for new
court commitments that include both sentenced felons and a small number of sentenced misdemeanants. For 1980the
data cover all types of sentencedfelons
admittedto prison, not just new court
commitments. For 1981 and 1982the figures for race cover sentenced felons who
were new court commitmentsor returned
conditionalrelease violators.
records for 1981 and 1982, and the National Archive of Criminal Justice Data at
the University of Michigan has the State
prison admission records for 1983to
1986 and Federal prison admission
records for 1986.
The following years since 1926 have no
admission statistics, published or unpublished: 1951through 1959, 1961, 1963,
1965through 1969, and 1971 through
1973. There are published statistics for
1962, but they do not give any information
on race. The FederalGovernment apparently did not operate the series in the
missing years.
From 1937to 1941the combined State
and Federal prison admission statistics on
prisoner race include both men and women, but the only existing State-by-State
data on the race of admitted prisoners are
the published statistics on males. From
1947to 1949 available racialstatistics are
for males only.
For 1928,1937 through 1941,1947
through 1949, and 1981, no State-byState admission statistics on prisoner
race exist.
Racialstatistics on admissionsto Federal prisons, 1960to 1985, are for the fiscal year rather than the calendar year.
Also, the Federalfigures for this period
are incomplete (see Appendix 6).
Some admission records submittedto
the FederalGovernment deviated from
collection rules, accordingto the explanatory notes accompanyingthe reports.
Consequently, State-to-State and yearto-year comparisons of admission data
that fail to take into account such rule
violations may lead to erroneous conciusions.
The Federal Government operatedthe
admission series for 42 of the 61 years
from 1926to 1986 and tabulated information on race for 41 of the years. Data on
race for the 41 years are incompleteto
the extent that for any of the years some

The publication CorrectionalPopuktbns h the United

court commitmentsin 1986 (p. 53). The total
223,883 estimatedhere is larger than the 219,382

Appendix B
a designation of race, the practice of identifying the number of missing cases was
dropped after the 1930 publication of National Prisoner Statistics. Subsequent
publications typically combined missing
cases with "other race" prisoners, the iatter category primarily consisting of American Indians, Alaska Natives, Asians, and
Pacific Islanders.
In 1977 the Federal agency responsible
for administering National Prisoner Statistics, the Bureau of Justice Statistics, reinstituted the practice of tabulating
separately the number of admitted State
prisoners whose race was unknown. Of
54,023 State prisoner records compiled
that year, 65 lacked a designation of race.
The number of incomplete records has
grown considerably since then, largely
because the number of States participating in the admission series has grown. In
1986, 15,637 State records lacked a designation of race, the largest number ever
recorded. Nevertheless, the 15,637 represent only 9% of the 167,474 State
records received. More generally, in no
year d o cases lacking a designation of
race represent more than about 10% of
State records received (appendix table 2).
