Baseball

AS was predicted several weeks
ago, both Frederick and Chambers
burg have been accepted into the
Eastern Shore Glass 3D. League for
1949, taking up the franchises drop
ped by the two Delaware Clubs in
the league, Dover and Milford With
the acceptance of Chambersburg
and Frederick, the name of the
league will have to be changed, and
the new name will be decided on at
a later meeting.
Frederick will have a working
agreement with the Philadelphia
Athletics Farm System, but it is not
known yet what affiliations the new
Chambersburg team will be able to
make.
The granting of a franchise in the
Eastern Shore League to these two
teams just about kills any chance
the proposed Virginia League has of
operating next year.

Time For Action And Not Words

From the statements, charges and denials
made so far, 1t looks to us like Rep. Campbell
has the weight of evidence on his side. He
asked that the Boswell report be made pub
lie. The board of trustees, to date, has not
yet seen fit to do so, and there is no con-
cievable justification for their stand. If Rep.
Campbell is indulging in publicity seeking,
then all the board has to do is publish the
report to refute his charges. If he is not and,
as he says, the Boswell report bears out his
charges, then we think that not only are some
dismissals in order at Whitfield, but that also
some designations would be appropriate
among the board of trustees.
We nave seen this same pattern over and
over until it is sickening. Not so many
months ago similar charges conferred about
the juvenile delinquent school at Columbia
with no particular concrete or long range re-
suits.
Then there is the situation at the state
penitentiary at Parchman. Before the last
session of the legislature State Senator Fred
Jones of Inverness made charges that label
ed the state parole board as a source of slave
labor for prominent politicians. If the charges
iGVGiltu ny oeHdJOI jules we're True, THEN
members of the board should have been SUBJ
ject to criminal prosecution.
Sen. Jones charged that the parole board
paroled Parchman convicts to politicians as
home servants and farm laborers where they
worked without virtually any pay and in
many instances, under intolerable conditions.
One prominent Gulf Coast politician was in
volved, he said. Sen. Jones also said that he
was going to make this list public in order to
rectify conditions at the state penitentiary.
He.didn't and, aside from the employment of
some paid guards authorized at the last SEES
sion, it seems to us that the old '~trusty" sys-
tenn under which long term convicts are CIV
en- jobs of guards is still in full flower. AS
far as we can see, there has been no follow-up
by either the daily press or Sen. Jones on the
parole abuses. At least if there has, the pub
lie hasn't been let in on it.
1t is high time that the public be given a
full accounting of conditions at its state
institutions and it is our belief that it is the
duty and obligation of Gov. Wright to APP
point an impartial investigating committee
to go into the multitude of charges, make pub
lie their findings and give the public of our
state a true and factual account, despite the
harm it might do a few politicians or political
job holders.

price reduction and initiation
control. We believe that the
infinitesimal decrease of prices
last month indicates that cor
porations with inflated profits
are realizing that prices must
either come down OF the nat
ton will see the resumption of
controls of one sort or another
by Congress next year, or the
resumption of an excess prof
its tax. A voluntary roll back
of prices between now and the
middle of January could pre-
vent such action.
However, the public is no
longer going to swallow pro-
paganda by the National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers as a
substitute for action that will
bring under control the present
inflationary spiral and the dan
ger, of a disastrous crash and
depression. Manufacturers,
to a large extent, are still rid
ing an economy of shortage
which has been prolonged by
demands of the Marshall plan
and European rehabilitation,
coupled with the tense world
situation and the necessary
demands of our Armed SerV-
ices in the face of it. We thor
oughly dislike controls and for
that reason would like to see
the necessary steps taken by
industry itself. We do believe,
though. that if controls now can
save our way of life for future
generations and prevent the
depression that inevitably fol-
lows inflationary Spirals such
as the one we are now expert
eneing. we should have them.

Once more one of the states institutions
comes under attack with about the usual re-
suit. Charges are made and denied. A full
investigation is asked and not made. The
affair becomes a two-day sensation in the
press, and is then forgotten. The public, as
usual, fails to get the facts to which it is en-
titled.
The latest charges once again involve the
State Hospital at Whitfield. Rep. Hayden
Campbell of Jackson says that a personal in
vestigation by him shows that conditions at
the hospital are rotten to the core" and he
demands the dismissal of the hospitals three
top executives as a result of these alleged
conditions.
r. C. Stovall of Columbus, chairman of the
board of trustees of mental institutions, says
that the legislators charge are without
proof and cites a confidential report by
DR.. Henry Boswell, a member of the board
and superintendent of the state tubercular
sanatorium, as the basis for denial of Rep.
Campbells charges. The investigation was
made by DR.. Boswell following an appearance
before the board by Rep. Campbell some two
months ago with the same charges that he
recently made public. esffFEa
Rep. Campbell, in answer to Mr.. Stovall,
said that he read DR.. Boswell's report at the
boards offices in Jackson and that it not
only bears out his charges, but reveals some
conditions even worse than those he had
found. Seeking a second look at the Boswell
report the same day, Rep. Campbell said, he
was told that he could not see it and advised
that 1T is not available to anyone"
In the first place there should be no such
thing as a confidential investigation of a
state institution, 1 charges made merit an
investigation it should be undertaken and
the full facts made public. State institutions
are not paid for by boards of trustees. They
are operated by the taxpayers money, and the
taxpayers and citizens of the state are en-
titled to know the full facts of any investiga-
ton undertaken. If conditions even app
proach those involved in the charges made by
Rep. Campbell, then he is right in demanding
the dismissa of those responsible for them.
If they do not, then the public is also entitled
to know that the charges are %unfounded and
that executives hired by the board on behalf
of the public are competently discharging
their duties. 1t seems to us that the officials
themselves, about whom the charges center,
would welcome the full publication of an in
vestigation that vindicates them.

Juvenile delinquency is, to
some degree, a much abused
term used by individuals to
dismiss or explain a multitude
of end results without bother
ing to examine the many cross
currents and factors involved in
the misstep of a teen-ager.
Closely knit family ties, un-
derstanding parental guidance
and a general wholesome out
side environment usually pro-
duces healthy, wholesome and
outstanding youngsters that ma
ture into good citizens. Whit
brings all this to mind is a
news item of last week telling
of the first anniversary of the
Youth Canteen. which has been
operating in the basement of
the old Central School build
ing on S. Pascagoula for the
past year under the guidance
OF a group Of adults and pa
ents who in their own quiet
way have been contributing
invaluable service to the COM
munity as a whole.
During the past few years
we have seen the start og
several Youth Canteens. Most
failed for one of the sew
eral reasons, the chief of which
was the lack of supervision.
The present project seems to
be on solid ground here. The
some 400 youngsters who use
the Canteen weekly are under
continuous adult supervision.
The adults lay plans for par
ties, dances and other affairs
