He said half of Alto’s 1,200 in mates are involved in the pro gram this year. The inmates must actively work and show progress to stay in the program. “The man first has to ask for our help,” Petkas said. “We can guide the man toward help from doctors, sociologists, psy chiatrists, clergy, social work ers or anyone who might help. By law we cannot make the man go see these people, but if he really wants to change his life he will go. “We take him nowhere, pay for nothing, until he shows signs of progress. Then if we feel he is capable of success we will underwrite his efforts.” The inmates, whose ages range from 18 to 20, are mostly uneducated and unskilled, he said. Training includes grammar and high school, some college classes and training in 18 trades. The state also helps the for mer inmates after their release. “We try to show them it’s im portant to make decisions on their own and follow through,” Petkas said.

(AP) Columbus paper asks probe COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) - The Columbus Enquirer has asked the Georgia Supreme Court to investigate the loss of a file concerning inmates who have died in the Muscogee County jail. “We would appreciate your consideration of any appro priate investigation of further action in this matter,” Carrol Dadisman, executive editor of The Columbus Ledger-Enquirer wrote in a letter to Chief Justice H.E. Nichols. The Enquirer has been seek ing the files since August, 1975. Superior Court Judge John Land denied the newspaper’s suit against Sheriff Jack Rut ledge requesting disclosure of the files and the newspaper ap pealed the decision. Last week, in a hearing in Columbus, Land was told that the file had been lost and or dered the case continued “in the event this file is later found.” In today’s combined edition of the Ledger-Enquirer, the newspaper said Nichols’ assist ant, Ben Estes, said the high court would look into the mat ter. “You can definitely say we are investigating, but I can’t elaborate,” the paper quoted Estes as saying. Copies of Dadisman’s letter also were sent to the other Su- preme Court justices; Harold Clarke, president of the state Bar of Georgia, and Judge Er- \\\ \ * \ \ \ \ \ \ —\ s"° \ V .Aiiwvgte'A \-kiX \ .

El Salvador tourists invited to Georgia SAN SALVADOR, El Salva dor (AP) — Calling tourism a “two-way street,” Gov. George Busbee today encouraged El Salvador to concentrate on the Southeast, and Georgia in par ticular, in developing tourist trade. “As a result of the election of Jimmy Carter as President of the United States, Georgia and the Southeast have received significant attention over the past several months,” Busbee said. He made his remarks in a speech prepared for delivery to a breakfast meeting sponsored by the convention bureau of San Salvador. Busbee and a 12-member del egation from Georgia are in this Central American country for four days to promote trade and tourism. “In developing tourism for El Salvador, I would think it would be well that your emphasis concentrate on the southeastern region of the United States, of which Georgia is the geographic center,” Busbee said.
