MELTON'S LEADERSHIP REALLY NEEDED

Gov. Haley Barbour's comments regarding his replacement of Mississippi 
Bureau of Narcotics Director Frank Melton gave an interesting insight into 
the political mind ("Melton: Losing position a relief," Jan. 10).

You quote Mr Barbour as saying of Mr. Melton: "He's a very capable guy and 
a strong leader," but, "we need something different." I would have guessed 
that's exactly what we do need.
