PAGE THREE I ) STATE WILL EYE LNIAKI Board of Control Authorizes Investigation Plant in Medford Seen As Possi bility to Use Refuse SALEM, March 2 (AP) The board of control today authorized a thor ough Investigation of proposed estab llshment of an Industrial alcohol plant at the state penitentiary as the first step toward creating a new In dustry In the state In a four-way program as an aid further to aanmt many Industries. The action was taken when John H. Lewis, former state engineer, ap peared before the board with a plan for a demonstration plant at the state penitentiary to utilize waste products for manufacture of alcohol which can be used to blend with gasoline for state use. Lewis appeared at the Invitation of Rufus C. Hoi man, state treasurer. In a movement to find employment for convicts as soon as the flax Industry is eliminated at the prison. Benefits Pictured Lewis, In presenting his picture, declared the program would provide work for convicts, salvage of fruit and vegetable waste, stream pollution and manufacture Industrial alcohol. Using the penitentiary plant aa a demonstration, he pictured further a 3,000.000 Investment In different cities of the state where such private plants could be located. Proposed locations for these plants, he said, would be at Klamath Falls, Medford, Roseburg, Eugene, Salem. Baker, Pendleton, Coos Bay, HUlsboro and Bend. These locations, he de clared, could supply the amount of waste necessary. Lewis declared the legislature would have to provide the funds for the demonstration plant, which he estimated would cost $135,000. The survey ordered would be prepared for presentation to the legislature. Alcohol could be manufactured for about 10 cents a gallon, and the out put would be 2500 gallons per day by utilization of 100 tons of waste from canneries. Used In Europe The industry, when developed, would be the first In this country al chough 20 foreign countries are now doing it, Lewis declared. It would prove a distinct benefit, not only In keeping convicts at work, but would aid the farmers, the fishermen, the canneries, and the people as a whole who are now playing high prices for gasoline. The alcohol would make third structure gasoline better than the highest grade at the present time, Lewis continued. Virtually every type of waste could be utilized, and alco hol can be made out of virtually every commodity, Including sawdust. Holm an moved for authorization of a thorough study which was approved by Governor Martin. The executive warned, however, that the one trou ble with the penitentiary proposal Is the potential waste of funds due to political management.
