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.
