Grand Jury after Grand Jury has reported that conditions at Byberry are a disgrace. The State has offered to take over the institution, thus saving the city money and responsibility, and assuring the patients decent care. Why does the Republican machine oppose this humanitarian move? Because it would then lose control of 650 jobs. What's the misery of 6000 human beings against 650 political jobs?"
