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. . - ; -
