There has been a big, stinking mess in Springfield and the voters should register their outraged resentment. The for which the governor had no direct responsibility and in which he had no share, are the biggest part of the mess. Mr. Stratton's responsibility for the Hodge case is indirect and limited. It includes the ease which he approved a startling increase in the appropriation for Hodge's office We've Had It! in the second two years of Hodge's term.

Although Hodge gave plausible explanations of his "need" for the extra money, it turned out that he really intended to steal a good share of It, and he did. Sjtratton's responsibility Includes his failure, as a member of the Illinois buclgetaiy commission, to do anything toward auditing the auditor's office, which the commission had the power to do. To be sura, the commission had never, unJer any le- eent administration, really this duty. But Stratton was the sleeping switchman when the train went off the rails. The mess includes the governor use of Hodge as a lobbyist with the legislature for the administration's most Important bills.

Apparently, the governor made no close Inquiry into the methods by which persuaded the legislators; if he did, he expressed no disapprovsl of them. After the Dally News disclosed the forged checks that proved Hodge to be an embezzler, Gov. Stratton pcted vigorously and correctly. We 'tiave only praise for the way he got feodge out of office, off the Republican ticket, and headed toward the penitentiary. All these steps were courageous and forceful.

They were infinitely preferable to some of tha silly procedures recommended at that time by his Democratic critics. But for weeks prior to disclosure of these checks, the Daily, News had been exposing the payroll padding in Hodge's office and the exhaustion in some 11 months of certain special funds that had teen appropriated to cover two years, During these weeks, Gov. Stratton belittled exposures and defended Hodge. Fleck's Fund And Other Messes ANOTHER mess is the operation of the state insurance department, for which the governor Is directly responsible. Still another is Stratton's tolerance of Evan Howell as chairman oi the toll road commission long after Howell had demonstrated his unfitness.

Another mess is the record of Charles Fleck as public administrator of Cook County. Fleck If Stratton's appointee. Fleck put $1,000,000 nearly a third of all the monej' in his custody into the Southmooic Bank A Trust whose president, a A. Hmtz, set up the system for cashing Hodge's fraudulent warrants. By his own a Fleck started collecting "campaign funds" for 1956 early in 1953, immediately after Stratton took office.

In 195S he took $4,000 from Hintz, who said It came from Leon Marcus, chairman of Southmoor's board of directors. When the tcandal broke, Fleck withdrew the public administrator's deposit from the bank and returned the 54,000. Despite the record, Stratton announced two days ago that he Is keeping Fleck as public administrator and manager oi a campaign office on La Salle st. Another mess at Springfield was the Dunbar food trucking contract made by Vernon Nickell, state superintendent of public instruction. It has been the subject of congressional investigation and criminal i i ments.

Tht iontrtct a while Adlai Stevenson was governor, and Stratton had no responsibility for it. But in 1954 Stratton tried to persuade Nickell ta be the Republican candidate for United States senate How Stratton Runs Insurance Department HAT about insurance department? Stratton appointed as insurance director the late Robert E. Barrett, bfgthjr of Qfcgge F. record as attorney general helped to bring the Republican paity to disaster in 1948. Midway of the term, Robert Barrett died.

Forthwith Stratton appointed to the same office another stooge of George Barrett's Justin T. McCarthy. The two Barretts and McCarthy were all connected with an insurance company that the Barretts had acquired while George was attorney general. Its old management was nndet official investigation by the attorney general at the i the Barretts assumed control--a transaction surely to be condemned as severely as Hodge's acquisition of stock in a bank that was under his jurisdiction. Stratton all about it when he appointed Robert Barrett.

It has recently been disclosed how George Barrett earns fees as a lawyer in private practice from companies obliged to do business with the insurance department. Toll Road Mest 'Adds to Count HAT about Evan Howell and the toll road? Immediately after Howell took office, he organized a toll road association whose purpose was to collect heavy dues from financial institutions, contractors, and suppliers ot materials. When the press raised an outcry, Gov. Stratton the shakedown association, kept Howell. For a long Honell luxuriated in fantastic expense accounts while maintaining three private law offices--one in Washington, one In Springfield, and one IB Chicago.

These are the a counts againit Stratton. A minor count Is the shifty way, he has found other jobs for various; employes he had fired for good In many other respects, Stratton has been a good governor an excellent governor. He has been art efficient administrator of most of the departments under his control. This state mast always be grateful to him for his leadership in reapportionment. Many of his pred- had attempted-it but failed.

But our criticisms are of a kind that are not readily balanced and offset. They point out a kind oi callousness that invites the moial deterioration of government, no ter how prudent and efficient the governor may otherwise be. We Favor Election Of Richard Austin defeat of Stratton the election of i a Austin, and we recommend it. His whole public record is thatjj of a prosecutor and a judge. He had no large administrative experijj ence.

He is intelligent, vigorous, andH a tireless worker. Like many a governor Austin will have to learn the state's) business after he is elected. The case for Austin is hit ree-j ord for incorruptibility and intcg-' rity. It happens that these are qualities' of which Springfield is in For our part, we are hopeful that when Austin Is elected, he will develop the administrative skill thaf the office requires. This we cannot guarantee, but; we am willing to take the In the present condition of state, it Is a ctunot that needs to taken.

Gov. Stratton Has Been Disapproved, and Judge Austin Has Been Endorsed Also by the Chicago Sun-Times and the St. Louis Globe Democrat! (This advertisement paid for by rfonds of Judge Austin) IN FW SPA PERI.
