Th? prison inspectors of Mont-gjomtry
County are worried.
They can't see how they are go-ing
to m(*t operating expenses n'
a result of the current dapraRston
in ertUW, and according to members
of the board, it has become a seri-ous
matter.
The "population" of the county
jail at the present time is 60 pris-oners.
Thf" dally average, far last
year was about 125 inmates.
The inspectors are primarily con-cerned
over the prison overhead
and are awaiting word from V. S.
authorities as to whether Federal
prisoner! will b" transferred to the
institution, »
The Montgomery County Mm!)
has been placed on the approved
list by th» government and it hus
submitted its regular rates of BO

prisoner, which is acceptable to
