Mentioning certain reeommendatious et the November grand jury after a visit to the county Institution's In God - *rich and Clinton, the Warden mode no obje•ttou to the recommendations, but .beervtd that tate county cvuneil had a vommittee which was capable of look- ing atter these things without advice from an outside body. The eouacll felt, the Warden said. that criminal justice expenditures had -bests- evening *way by teape-. and I K ande. A committee had been inveetl- i gating in this matter, and nothing ille- g al had been found, but some re•om- aewlatlon might be made with a view to reducing the expense. In such matters the Warden advised that the members feet tree to • expresa� their opinions, but to he fair.
