PROBE ORDERED IN
ALLEGED POLITICAL
ACTIVITY OF WARDEN
Dell Patterson Faces Removal
Under Statute Il Charges
Are Proven

An investigation to determine
whether Warden Dell Patterson Of the
state penitentiary engaged in politi-
cal activity was ordered by Acting
Governor Ole H. Olson Friday as he
pointed to law providing for removal
OF institutional employees or heads
who are politically active.
Olson, in q letter to the board Of
administration. which appoints the
warden. explained he had been "in-
formed from sources I believe reliable
that Patterson had been taking part
in politics.
Olson's letter was addressed to Mel
son Sauyain. chairman Of the board Of
administration.
The letter said, II am Informed
from sources that I believe to be reli.
able that Mr.. Dell Patterson, warden
Of the state penitentiary, has been and
IS continuing to be actively engaged tr
political activities.
ut appears to me that this Is
violation Of Section 268, compiled laws
Of 1918, which reads as follows: Poll
tical influence or contribution pro-
hibited: Any member or officer o.
the board Of control or any officer OF
employee Of a state institution sub
iect to this board, who by solicitation
or otherwise exercises his influence
directly or indirectly to induce other
officials or employees Of the state tc
.ao,,+ HE y,nlitical views or who shall
in any manner contribute money o.
ANYTHING Of value to any person fol
political purposes shall be removed
from his office or position by the
proper authorities"
"Inasmuch as Mr.. Patterson Is an
appointee Of the board Of admins
tration, recommend that investiga-
ton be made Of these purported po-
litical activities and that proper steps
be taken to enforce the provisions Of
the law"
