in his earlier speeches for Wash-

exemplified by the Corrections

The governor contended that
Washington ranks among the four
or five top states in the nation in
such meamngful fields as institu-
tions, highways, education econo-
mic development, and fiscal plan-
ning.
He said "the iustitutional pro-
gram his administration has de-

the nation, that "edueatmn is the

development, that more industry

~e reviewed the history of his
~Jez'sonal interest in public institu-
Uons, sparked, he recalled, by an
incident in 1945 in which a boy
was killed by another inmate in a
King celerity jail where the youth
~hould never have been lodged le-
e;ally. It led eventually to the
Youth Protectlon Act of 1951 and
lhe evolvement of the philosophy
of institutions replacing the custo-
dial 'atmosphere with a program
of rehabilitation.
THE GOVERNOR also took ec-
easion at the dinner to answer
charges of "cronyism" which have
been leveled ag~\inst him in the
uresent campaign, saying "if sur-
rounding myself with men like
Garrett Heyns, Joc Dwyer, Warren
Bishop and others like them, who
are top men in their fields in the
country, is cronyism, then we need
more of it."
He pointed out that he had fre-
quently left important state posts
unfilled for long periods in order
to find the best man available
for theM, and that as a result "we
hOW have one of the best cabinets
this state has ever had."
His concluding remark in his
final speech of the day was a pre-
diction of a DemocratTic victory at
1he pells Nov. 3.
The governor's day in Shelton
Tuesday was arrange(1 by the Ma.-
.~,on County Re-Elect Rosellini
committee consisting of C. W.
