ton he had called on Patterson to
inquire about q political address the
warden was reported to have made.
Since then, Sauvain said, Patterson
has Cancelled = scheduled speaking

Sauvain Letter 70 Olson
His letter to Governor Olson said:
1.-TWO days before the receipt of
your letter about Warden Patterson
I received information concerning
some improper and unwarranted
things that he was alleged to have
said in his Labor Day speech. I i'm
mediately called on Mr.. Patterson,
and he seemed to recognize that he
had made q mistake. Since that, I
noticed q news item to the effect that
he had Cancelled q subsequent speak
ing engagement.
I'VE desire that members Of the
board of administration and all off,
GERS and employees under the board
observe section 268, compiled laws OF
1913. To warn against violations Of
this act, we are sending q copy Of
the same, as q reminder, to the head
Of each institution to which this law
applies.
I'VE recognize that Mr.. Patterson
has been proving q very good warden.
Nevertheless, we deem it necessary
that he refrain from any acts IN vio-
lation Of this law, even when away
from the institution.
Il am furnishing q copy OF your
letter to each member Of the board,
preparatory to bringing up the sub
ject at q meeting of the entire board"
