Goodyoar Pathfinder Coquille Service Station Additional State Capital News The problem of adequate housing for the state’s criminal insane may be solved through a compromise. Clean ly. the present arrangement under which these state wards are housed on the third floor of the state hospital does not provide proper safeguards. Dr. R. E. Lee Steiner, superintendent of the hospital, has suggested that these warda be turned over to the state prison. Warden Lewis does not want them—says that -they would not fit into the prison discipline and would be bad for the morale of the prison ers. Also there is a legal obstacle to the transfer of insane wards to the prison. - Warden Lewis wants to ex tend his prison wall northward te the south line of the hospital property. Now it is proposed to construct a hospital ward just inside this north wall of- the prison for the criminal insane, placing these wards inside the walls of the penitentiary but. leaving them still under the custody of hos pital authorities. All that is lacking m the money to build the wall and the hospital ward. The legislature will be ariced to help out on this angle. The long-standing fight between the various factions in the so-called healing arts is now to be carried to the people. For several sessions past the legislature has wrested with a so- called “basic science” bill. Oppon ents of the measure have charged that it represented an effort on the part of practitioners of medicine to throt tle competition. Now it is proposed to write into the state constitution an > amendment “to promote competition and prevent monopoly in any particu lar art or profession of human heal ing.” The Progressive Constitutional Amendment committee with head quarters in 'Portland is sponsoring the proposed initiative measure which will go on the general election ballot next November if sufficient signa tures can be secured before July 6. Nine bills of the last regular ses sion which were vetoed .by Governor Meier will be returned to the law makers when they meet in special ses sion this week. Four of the vetoed measures originated in the House. Five are Senate bills. Of particular interest bo the counties is the measure relieving counties of the coat of ear ing for . non-violent insane. This bill was vetoed because of no provi sion was made by the legislature in the form of an appropriation to reim burse the general fund for the toes of this revenue estimated at approxi mately 1500,000 for the biennium.
