The lovely Jewels, handsome mountings are manly, A I IT? IS STUDIED County and city officials, probing the proposition suggested as postwar work of 'constructing county-municipal jail colony or farm, are studying a state report by the State Board of Corrections on jail commitments for 1943, with supplemen tary analysis of monthly figures for January. In connection with the immediate penal problem, some attention also is being given to one suggestion that two or three or several counties combine in erecting and operating a Jail and farm for joint use with the possibility of reducing expenses. In this connection, figures collect ed by the office of Daley 'Craig, clerk of the Augusta board of SuT pervlsors, shows that so-called "Jail days numbered 8,910 in Augusta County, with 6,482 jail days in Rockingham County, or a total of 13,392 prisoner days.

Including data from Bath, Highland, Rockbridge, Shen andoah. Page, and Alleghany Coun ties, the total is 22,473 prisoner days, or more than three times the total for Augusta. Just how the cost of construction and the cost of maintenance would be shared is not immediately avail able, since the cost of "servicing' prisoners would not be constant and presumably would have to be placed on some sliding scale ratio. Study of the state board report for 1943 will be continued, but this will have to be done with the fact in mind that war conditions pro duce abnormal reactions in the crime world and also in the no- man's land between it and the normally law-abiding.
