Directing Its editorial fire at Dr. Thomas A. Harris, a University of Arkansas Psychiatrist who toolc the $20,000 a-year Job as director of institutions in June, The Walla Walla Unlon-Bullclin suggested that after two uprising in six weeks "it might help" If Gov. Langlle "would send Dr. Harris back where he came from." Langlle, reached at Seattle, would not comment on Ihe sugges tion. He said he felt "something Is wrong" at the prison, however, and promised an investigation. "We have some babies at the prison who are Just too tough to handle," he said. In other developments: Warden Lawrence Delmore Jr., who led armed guards into the prison to break up Sunday's riot, identified eight convicts he said "actively participated" in the dis turbance during which 15 officers were taken as hostages. Previous ly It was reported la pris oners were involved and estimates of tne number of hostages ranged from nine to 14.

I "They also wanted a promise they wouldn't be prosecuted for their actions July 6-6." The Union-Bulletin editorial, in suggesting Harris' removal, de clared it was "difficult to deter mine whether the prison Is being run by the prisoners or Dr. Har ris. "It would seem that Gov. Lang lle snnuld start giving some con cern to the state's penal Institu tions, . . and it might help if he would send Dr. Harris back where he came from." The editorial charged Dr. Harris wanted the prisoners trans ferred back here from Yakima be cause Guns "made them sleep on the floor," and also contended the sherilf refused Harris permission to speak to the prisoners.
