According to Dr. Julian
F. Keith, president of the
i clinic's board of directors,
this provision will seriouslv
! hurt the quality of care, as
well as the amount of funding

hung himself with his
bed sheet in the Iredell
County jail at Statesville at
10:56 p.m. on August 8, he
became the sixth jail inmate
to take his life this
year - all by hanging.
McCorkle had been arrested
and tried for assault
on a female and was suppose
to be taken to prison
two days after he commltted
suicide.
The number of suicides in
local jails during the past
few years has caused the
Jail and Detention Branch
of the Division of Facility
Services in the N.C. Department
of Human Resources
to increase its emphasis
on suicide intervention
in its basic training
program for local jailers,
according to Vharles Hall,
' head of the branch.
"In 1980, there were 21
deaths in local jails with 15
of these being suicides.
Every suicide was accomplished

on the funds from the Mental

"Our primary concern,"
said Dr. Keith, "is the
discontinuity that this practice
will cause to our paJ
tients. What are we to do
with a child who comes to
us at age eight and a half?
Are we to treat him for six
months and then send him
to a new facility with new
