A. Investigate? (An Editorial) Early in the summer of 1953, District Attorney Walt Nunley went to the county officials and asked for funds to pay a private investigator. On June 13, 1953, The Mail Tribune quoted Nunley as saying he wanted to hire an undercover man to in vestigate dope peddling—presumably to Medford High school children. Inasmuch as Nunley did not refute the quotes, we assume that the daily published in Medford was right. Nearly three years have passed. Politics has reared its ugly head and, as usual, things are coming out that perhaps would have remained hidden. Nunley now says the undercover report dealt with general crime conditions in Jackson county. He told The Times that during his term of office there have been only two isolated dope cases in the county. People, who supposedly know, say the confidential investigation was aimed at conditions in the Medford police department and the county sheriff’s office. The fact remains that no one has seen the confi dential report except Medford ministers. Nunley chose to show it to them. Why? It would seem to us that a confidential report on crime conditions in the county should be revealed to the men whose job it is to police the county—the State Police, the Sheriff's office, the chiefs of police of all the towns in the county. That this was not done only lends credence to the report that Nunley did aim the investigation at the police bodies themSelves. Nunley spent $2,800 of tax money to make the in vestigation. He said he was going to investigate dope. IF, instead of dope, he investigated police and sheriff activities, he obtained the money through subterfuge. We.believe that Nunley owes an explanation to the taxpayers of the county.—The Times.
