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.
