Governor Meldrim Thomson blames mismanagement and vacillation by prison officials for the Christmas Day riot at the state prison in Concord. He targets Warden Raymond Helgemoe and the board of trustees, demanding decisive action by Feb. 1 or he will intervene. The disturbance caused about 250000 dollars in damage, with 140 inmates refusing to leave the dining hall, several hostages, minor injuries, and restorations after tear gas.
