Many Seattle ministers interviewed today by representa- tives of The Star came out unequivocally for an investigation by the grand jury of the terrible conditions at the County Hos- pital at Georgetown. “Turn on the light.” “Go into the thing to the bottom.” These were the opinions expressed. Letters and telephone mes- sages which come into the office daily bear testimony to the in- dignation of the people of the city over the frightful misman- agement at the county institution. Among the many expressions are the following: “Investigate the King County Hospital by all means. It is not an uncommon thing for evil conditions to obtain in such an institution, not necessarily due to the evil intentions of anyone, but because of a lack of genuine interest. “I have myself visited the County Hospital and have held religious services there and feel that much can be done to make the lot of the inmates more pleasant and satisfactory. “King county is rich, and it is not charity, but justice, that its poor and sick should be treated with consideration."—REV, JOHN M. DEAN, of the Tabernacle Baptist church. “I am in favor of a rigid investigation of the King County Hospital or anything that will help the unfortunate inmates. An investigation should better conditions at the institution, | therefore let us have it at once. “County institutions at best can be improved. I speak of this from years of experience. Poor people only are forced to become inmates of county institutions and are liable to be neg- lected."—-STAFF CAPTAIN KOERNER, Booth branch of the | Salvation Army. “Quote me as being heartily in favor of an investigation of the County Hospital. If the management ig not faulty, then the officials have nothing to fear. “It is astounding that the actual conditions of the hospital | were not unearthed before."—REV. GEORGE R. CAIRNS, Temple Baptist church. “Investigations harm only those who are at fault. If condi- | tions at the King County Hospital merit it, no time should be lost in having a searching investigation.”"—-REV. E. LINCOLN SMITH, Pilgrim Congregational church. “Conditions at the County Hospital richly need investiga- I am also in favor of having the grand jury made a per- manent institution, I hope the grand jury will probe the hos- pital to the bottom. We cannot have too much light.”—REV. FRANCIS J. VAN HORN, Plymouth Congregational church. “By all means let us have an investigation of the King County Hospital. Whenever charges of such a nature are made against a public institution, they should be probed to the bot- tom. I have been to the County Hospital several times and have | some knowledge of the conditions there."—REV. HERBERT H. GOWEN, Trinity Episcopal parish. “The grand jury should be made a permanent institution, so that all public officials and institutions could be investigated at regular periods. From the facts published, The Star is evi- dently on the right track. Give us a thorough investigation of the institution."—-REV. W. H. W. REES, Methodist Episcopal church, “All public institutions and private charities should be in- From my experience in jail, police and institution work for the Volunteers, I am of the opinion that the County Hospital should be investigated thoroughly. The Star should be commended for having the courage to probe the matter.”"—-MAJ. FOULKES, Volunteers of America. “An investigation of a public institution is a relief for the An expert accountant investigates our books every quarter, and his preserice is a great relief. Officials should welcome publicity.”-SECRETARY REUBEN W. JONES, of the school board.
