usal Of the same report would have
corrected an obvious error in which
in the language of the Lewiston
Journal, 1t is stated that: "Three
glaring instances Of neglect and dis
graceful conditions were picked out
from the entire country in the ad-
ministration of poor farms. the re-
port made public today said. One
was in Virginia. One was in Ohio.
The other was the city poor farm of
Augusta, Maine"
1t is quite easy to determine from
brief reading of a report entitled
The American Poorfarm and It's
Inmates" written by Harry c. Evans
of Des Moines, Iowa, that the report
quoted by the Lewiston paper is TAX
en- from that publication. This re-
port says in part:
Take this report from Prince Will
liam County. Virginia (here a brief
report is given) or these conditions
at Augusta, Maine, Chis report be-
ing substantially as given in the
Lewiston JournaD or this situation at
the Sandusky County poorfarm in
Ohio, (here third report is given).
The next paragraph states:
These cases are picked at random.
Hundreds of similar cases could be
cited-and many of them are on other
pages"
Turning further in the same report
to the pages devoted to report of the
conditions in Maine, the report de-
clared:
''The general condition of the poor
farms throughout the State are shame
full, disgraceful. Inmates are accept
ed without examination. Very few
reports show entertainment, musical
instruments or religious service.
There is but one good thing about
Names poorhouses-there are no chill
dren in them. Nearly all buildings are
very old. poorly equipped. in bad re-
pair, with little fire protection. The
gruesome story of few counties is
given" This is followed by list of
8 places in Maine, headed by Angus
ditions are described as far from good.
Secretary CRUDE B. Cornish of the
State department of charities and cor
rections, commenting on the report,
which is dated 1926 and which he says
has been on file in his department for
several weeks, said:
THE report is not UP to date. 1t
may be a report Of conditions as they
once were, that I cannot say, but 1t
certainly is not a report of conditions
as they are now, and with regard to

WCSH at Portland
On Higher Wave
Length-5OO Meters

During the past few weeks there
nave been many changes in the var
ious wavelengths which numerous
nroadcasting stations have been US
ing; some with better results. and
others with not so good.
Among the recent changes is that
OF the Portland station WCSH. To-
Gated at the Congress Square Hotel.
The local fans, and many through
out the State have had considerable
dlfnculty in picking up stations on
their usual dial settings, due to the
changes made which ~necesitated
relosing Of their sets.
WCSH at Portland has been
broadcasting very fine programs
since the opening a little over a year
ago. Wishing to give the radio lis
teners of Maine better programs the
management OF the station brought
about the hook-up with the WEAF'
chain. Excellent results have been
obtained through this arrangement
as high class talent is available from
all sources.
1t will be remembered, last winter
when general reception was poor,
Portland came through very nicely.
Broadcasting on a wavelength of
500 meters instead of 256 has been
successful in eliminating interfer-
ence with other stations.
1t is anticipated that the coming
