Flax Protected
By Insurance
Details of the flax insurance
for the state penitentiary plant,
voted at last week's meeting of
the board of control, were ar
ranged by the board late yes
terday, The insurance, which
will give maximum protection
on a sliding inventory scale,
will cost approximately $13,000
yearly.
The Salem insurance firm of
Beck and Wadsworth will han
dle the insurance, which will be
in force for three years. The
state will have cancellation
rights, the board said. Forty
percent of the gross brokerage
fee will go to the Oregon As
sociation of Insurance Agents.
The estimated maximum of
coverage is more than $600,000.
Purchase of $8,000 worth of
laboratory equipment for the
University of Oregon Medical
school was deferred pending
more detailed investigation.
Members of the board agreed
that all purchases of goods by
state departments should be
scanned carefully during the
remainder of the biennium.
The board agreed to ask an
opinion of the attorney general
as to the replacement value of
state property destroyed by
fire. The question arose after
two claims had been presented,
and the board wished to know
whether they should be hon
ored at the full market price of
the equipment, or at its value
at the time of destruction.
Copies of the "Oregon Guide"
may be sold to schools, state
departments and libraries for
$1.75, the board decided, in
place of the original price of
$2.50,
