Cruelty to some patients at Ellisville State School for the Feeble Minded has been claimed by witnesses appearing before the legislative investigating committee. One witness under threat of prosecution for night admitted that as an attendant she "shoved" a girl and with the aid of another woman attendant "tied the girl up with cotton stockings." A mother testified that she found her helpless son burned from his waist down and charged she saw strap marks on the boy and prints as made from applied lighted cigarets.

On the other hand, a doctor who examined the boy said he could have been scalded by wetting himself for a week-and-a-half while he was in the state school. The mother said the child had never been allowed to stay wet when at home but admitted he had to be helped. All of which suggests "what is cruelty?" Is there any great difference between allowing a person to rot from inattention and neglect in a devils hole and actually beating him? Looks like both have occurred at Ellisville if continuing corroborative evidence and testimony means anything. POLITICAL MEDDLING Seth Hudspeth, executive secretary to the State Mental Board didn't come out and say he knew of political interference in the firing of Mrs. Evelyn Sue Holmes as financial secretary at Ellisville.

Nor, did he say outright there had been political maneuvering in the other about face of the board when Clyde Hill was refused the directorship immediately after being elected and W. L. Jolly was named instead. But, if we ever heard inferences that there were political pressures, Hudspeth gave them. He told the investigating committee that all of his orders had come from Dr.

J. K. Avent, chairman of the board. It is now up to the committee to find out who told Avent to twice reverse himself and the board within a week or so after appointments were made. Mr.

Hudspeth also thought it strange that three employees, one of them In line for the job held by Mrs. Holmes, should within a week decide to make affidavit that she was "dis- A If Solution of Yesterday's Punl DOWN 1. Insane 2. Frozen dessert 3. Educated 4.

Farm Bureau Head Injured In Accident Boswell Stevens, of Macon, president of the Mississippi Farm Bureau, was injured Monday when he dodged a car to keep from hitting it and went into a ditch.

Mr. Stevens, however, drove his own car on to Jackson, and then sought medical examination. On recommendation of his doctors here, Mr. Stevens wa3 returned to Macon in a Wright and Ferguson ambulance for hospitalization in Macon. A Farm Bureau spokesman in Jackson said that Mr.

Stevens suffered a dislocated vertabrae and a fractured finger, and was shaken up to a certain extent. The accident occurred near Kosciusko. Mr. Stevens said a car pulled out in front or him, apd ha had to go into the ditch to avoid hitting the car. 0G39LH33D Radio Surrey In Autos Listen To MmMiwn PAI TIM! 31 MIN.

loyal." A week earlier she had been promoted and given a raise, only to be fired seven days later. Mr. Hudspeth sought to keep his testimony objective. He inferred that there was e-thing rotten in Denmark but for specific answers, newsmen were a little at a loss. MAIL POUCH The morning mail brings this copy of a letter sent, we gather, to the governor: Governor J.

P. Coleman State Capitol Jackson, Mississippi Dear Governor: While watching the TV program, "Report to the People," last Wednesday night January 22, 1958, we learned of your interest in securing a tenant for your Choctaw county farm this year. I am watching the present legislature with interest with regards to our educational program and feel that they might aid us but in the event they do not I would like for you to consider this as an application for the tenants job. I have the following qualifications: 30 years of age 7 years of teaching experience M. A.

Degree Large Family We are accustomed to a low standard of living. It will not take much to run us until gathering time. I feel that this would be an improvement over tuy present economic status. Respectfully yours, A Disturbed Teacher Child Care Executives Plan Meet The Tenth Annual Meeting of the Child Care Executives of Southern Baptists will be held at the Edge- water Gulf Hotel. Edgwater Park.

January 30-31. This group com prises some 18 states representing 31 Cmldrens Homes with approx imately 75 or 80 executives in attendance. The organization had its begin ning and first organizational meet ing in 1949 with the Mississippi Baptist Orphanage, Jackson, as the host. At the first meeting there were 15 Children's Homes repre-sented with 25 in attendance. vnaa care Ministry among Southern Baptists' has grown tre- mendously in the past decade and New Automobile Shows More People EYE FOR PROGRESS Rep.

Tommy Brooks, of Leake county, is working all-out for the Pearl River waterway that is being talked here. He thinks that the answer to a lot of our industrial problems is in the making when plans are made for the creation of a huge reservoir in Hinds, Rankin, Madison and Leake counties by a dam across the river just north of Jackson. "The first thing industry comes looking for nowadays is sufficient water," Brooks told us yesterday. "I am going up to Carthage and talk to my people. We need that reservoir." We put a lot of credit in what the young Leake county law-maker says about this matter.

If the rest of the people in his county are 'as wide-awake as Rep. Brooks, and they must be because they sent him down here as a representative, then there is high hope for some new progress in this section. WATER MEANS INDUSTRY A sufficient water supply could mean much for the three county area, and there is no doubt that Leake, Rankin, Madison, and Hinds can all use some industrial developments. A lot of folks are reminding that Mississippi Power and Light Company is going all out financially to get a big pond in North Jackson so that concern may have sufficient water to operate. So, it looks like other industries might be well attracted when sufficient water is provided in our four-county sector.

And, if you aren't industry-minded, remember Jackson may need a drink of water one of these days. And, there is a great recreational and sporting potential such as is enjoyed up at Sardis, Grenada and other The High Cost of HURT FEELINGS Do you lie awake nights and "keep remembering old Are you often "burned up" over something he (or she) did to you?
