Wadneiday, March 1, 1950 State Board Squeezes Out By William Warron United Press Correspondent Salem, Ore., March 1 (U.R) The state board of control got caught in a wringer, literally speaking, t o day. The ques tion: whether to buy the stu dent nurses at Oregon State hospital some a u tomatic washing m a chines, or make them c o n 1 1 n ue to wash out their undies by hand. Bill Warron Seems some persons interest ed in the welfare of the student nurses at Oregon State hospital figured the girls should have au tomatic washing machines to take care of their unmention ables. ' As William C. Ryan, co-ordi- nator of state institutions ob served, the nurses in training at the state hospital are getting psychiatric nurse training. Iliey get free room and board. They get their uniforms laundered for free, their towels taken care of for free and their bed sheets done up for them, also on the house. Ryan said about the only things they could have left to launder in the automatic wash ers would be their undies. Said Gov. Douglas McKav. Secretary of State Earl T. Ncw bry and State Treasurer Walter J. Pearson the board of con trol members the girls arc en titled to keep clean, so why not a washing machine? Hyan replied: One wouldn t do it. There are 70 student nurses in training. It would probably take about four. Be sides, if we got the washers for tne student nurses, the regis tered nurses working there would want them, too." Pearson disagreed. He said the registered nurses, being there permanently, could con ceivably buy their own, but it wouldn't be possible for the stu dents, only there three months or so, to buy their own. Well, suggested State Budget Director Harry S. Dorman, why not let one of the firms that makes automatic washing ma chines and that put out models witn coin attachments install one to see how it goes? Ah! the board of control was out of the wringer! That's what we'll do, they said. Get an au tomatic washer with a coin at tachment, and let the girls use it at two-bits a throw. So it looks like a new department is about to come into being at Oregon State hospital a laundcratte. The board approved a build ing program for Fairview Home, state school for the dcof. and Oregon State hospital in Salem and Woodburn boys school and Eastern Oregon State hospital. The program calls for a total expenditure of $373,000, of which $132,000 will come from the state building fund and $241,000 will be sought from the state emergency board. lie of Medford.
