OTTAWA (CP) - Christmas has come early for 230 convicts across Canada who have been granted their freedom for good behavior in jails and penitentiziries.

It has been the practice of the justice department's remissions branch to release a certain number annually in time for Christmas. in most cases, the released con- victs have served at least half of their sentences. Until recent years they had to have served at least two-thirds of their terms.

Among those who walked out of penitentiarles this year were a few originally sentenced to life im- prisonment.

The men are free on a signed "licence." under which they pledge to abide by the law during the unremitted part of their sentence. They are required to report monthly to police and at regular intervals to specialized agencies such as the John Howard Society
