stick pretty close 10 Gov. Graham's

though perhaps not on all the details
OF his program, and some OF them

The State and nrattleboro.

There ought to be a little more ex-
plicit information about that 'rat-in.
tested dungeon" in the Brattleboro re-
treat The people Of Vermont are
eft in some confusion OF mind about
the place.-Barre Times.
After listening carefully TO all the
evidence regarding this alleged dun
geon, The Herald is Of the belief that
there is no such place at the Brattlo.
boro institution. The only testimony
regarding it came from Mrs. Guilford,
who was undoubtedly insane when
she was patient and whose delu-
sions may have persisted after she
went home.
Sane men, who are apparently com.
petent witnesses, have declared they
never heard of such place, and even
II they had it would be unimportant
in the light of certain other facts.
The Herald believes the following
to be true:
That the superintendent and staff
were never guilty of cruelty to pa.
tents;
That a certain type OF attendant,
heap, dirty, lazy and inefficient, drift
Ing from one institution to another.
is guilty OF most of the abuses which
have crept into the retreat:
That the supervision has not been
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1917-03-07

sufficient to protect insane patients
from brutality: a
That the employment Of mildly in,
sane patients has been abused;
That the food for state patients
has been sufficient in quantity but not
in quality;
That there has never been enough
help to keep the institution properly
clean and the patients properly cared
for;
That the superintendent has given
too much time to Office details and
not enough to supervision.
Undoubtedly the retreat has been
hampered for lack of money. and un-
doubtedly the state appropriation has
been too small TO provide for ade-
quate care OF state patients, but this
does not excuse the situation entirely.
II witnesses like Foster X. Clement
and Margaret Guyette are credible,
wrong has been done, not only to
state patients. but to those whose
care has been well paid for. The lat
ter may not be properly a state mat
ter but the state is clearly entitled
to have its own charges treated with
Kindness and given god care and
treatment.
Reference has been made TO the
states taking over the institution.
This probably cannot be done under
the terms OF the Marsh will. but the
state can and should insist on COM
petent supervision of its patients,
even to the extent of employing one
or more resident supervisors.
Incidentally, the state should BEGIN
making plans to care for It's own inN
sane charges in an enlarged Water
bury or elsewhere. instead of farming
them out to a private institution
