(Spl.) Johnson County Sheriff William J. Stillabower last night blamed mental patients for instigating the second outbreak in a week at the county jail here. Light fixtures were torn down, a shower was broken, locks were damaged and a mattress ripped apart in the flare-up early yesterday morning. STILLABOWER had little trouble restoring order in yesterday's uprising but had to use tear gas to subdue inmates in a riot last Monday night The sheriff said both outbreaks were the result of imprisonment of mental patients in the jail which he said is not equipped to handle them. One such mental patient, who has been imprisoned since May 26 awaiting transfer to a state hospital, will be moved out tomorrow morning, Stillabower said.

The sheriff said he is considering filing charges against three of the prisoners who aided the mental patients in damaging the jail cells.

She traced the history of America's quest for individual freedom. SHE CONTENDS that the basis of all our freedoms is the Bill of Rights, combined with the statements of the Declaration of Independence. "It states that man is and should be, free to do certain things he sees fit, without the fear of persecution." Jane Graham believ-human liberty encompasses all phases of life.

It is "that feeling in one's heart of being free." She summed up the subject by writing, "In short, human liberty is the state of man in which he can go through life without fear for what he believes." The Human Liberty Awards, first presented in 1958, were proposed by Monroe Noblet, a 1907 Manual graduate, and are made annually through the school's Alumni Association. other freedoms become mean ingless when a man is told what to believe." An abstract thought, an ideal, was Patricia Nixon's conception of the subject. "It is the feeling within myself that until I harm another's interests, I may think or do whatever I like." She wrote, "Human liberty is a memory. It is the memory of all the choices I have been free to make in my life." Elsa Maschmeyer wrote emphatically that "human liberty is the backbone of our nation. It is the principle on which our country is founded." SHE QUOTED Thomas Jefferson: "All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Miss Maschmeyer expressed her conviction that "all men throughout the world should be given these rights because they are men."
