Mr. Wallace said that the board agreed
to raise the assessment.
"We had three Of the five members
with US from the start" said Mr.. Wal
lace. Governor Haskell, the chair
man Of the board, and one other mem
ber were inclined to oppose the prop
osition. We told them we could not
raise enough revenue to run the coun-

reduced to correspond with the prop

ly agreed to make the raise we asked
for If we could get a petition signed

Commissioner West today expressed
deep interest in the conditions at the
lail, but added that the institution is in
40 degree within the Jurisdiction Of the
District Commissioners.
we do not appoint the warden, -
said Commissioner West, 1--WE do not
appoint any of the guards. We have no
control over the purchase of supplies,
nor de we even include the estimates
for the jail in cur budget to Congress,
ali estimates for that institution being
made by the Department of Justice.
IF, as seems to be the case. the con-
ditiOns at Ihe iail are due to an I'M
usually large number of prisoners now
iucarcerated there, ii is evident that
the building, which was erected over a
quarter of a century ago, has not at The
present time sufficient capacity to ac-
cOmmodate persons who are arrested
and are held in jail pending action by
the grand jury, or who are committed
