Thm OZZGOII STATESMAN. Salem, Oregon, Thursday Morning, September 21. 1344 SAGS KS: State Frowns s On Purchasing Lab Equipment Large purchases from 'any state department or Institution will be scanned with 'special, care during the remainder of this biennlum, the board of control agreed Wed nesday, after Secretary of State Robert S. YarrelL jr., had sug eested that departments might at tempt to expend surplus funds which would otherwise revert to the state's general fund. , FarreH'a suggestion came after a request, had been presented for approximately $800b worth of lab oratory equipment for the Univer sity of Oregon Medical school. "ItMooks tomeFarrell said, that this equipment should have been purchased earlier in the bi ennium particularly in view of the fact that funds were appropri ated by the last legislature.! Both Governor Earl Snell and state treasurer Leslie M. Scott -agreed ""with Farrell. ',y - , '.;; Purchase of the equipment was deferred pending further investi gation, vy ''.' '.;.'.-';,'. The board directed its secretary to confer with the attorney general to determine whether state ma terials and equipment destroyed by fire should be replaced on the basis of original , value - or the appraised value at the time of the fire. ; This followed consideration of two claims against the state restoration fund by the state high- way department. . v y j l-.. y . One claim involved the destruc non oz a trucic and the other an asphalt kettle." The truck '. claim .was for $4600, the original value,' .minus salvage, while the kettle claim was in the amount of $600. It also was decided to circularize state departments. ' schools and libraries in hope of disposing of 950 copies of the "Oregon Guide' at $1.75 each. The original price was $2.50. . - ; - I?MkB(B vpM(BEIl : WhereThey Are What They Are Doing , TedL Set Larry Barham, Salem hlh rradaate ef 1941 anil sonl tank corps met for dinner Salisbury, England while on Wickhiser Trades Place For Gervais Property GERVAIS T.
