Improving of Meals At State Institutions Scheduled for Study Salem (U.P.) The feeding pro gram in state institutions will be studied to the objective of stand ardizing and improving meals, the State Board of Control has decided. By elimination of waste and by coordinating the food pro gram at the various state insti tutions the state can save $400, 000, Al Richardson, food man ager at the state penitentiary, estimated. Will Cut Estimate But Miss Elsie Maxwell, food consultant for the Board of Con trol, pointed out that additional overhead could cut the estimate. The question of whether an adequate diet was being pro vided to patients of Oregon State hospital arose when Leo Margo sian of the State Department of Finance and Administration said savings could be expected in all institutions except the state hos pital. Gov. Paul L. Patterson wanted to know if increased cost of feeding at the state hospital was due to "underfeeding" at the present time. Miss Maxwell, who has spent half a year supervising installa tion of equipment at the hospi tal new kitchen, said many of those who are now bedfast could get on their feet if a bet ter diet was provided. They eventually will need cen tralized warehousing to provide savings by mass purchases, Bill Ireland, secretary of the board of control, said. Richardson said the problem is comparatively simple in Oregon because nearly all the institutions are within an 18 mile radius of Salem. Secretary of State Earl T. Newbry said he thought the pro posed program was sound and would save the state money. Standards based on a ration system developed by the federal government and by other states would assure greater savings than are possible under the pres ent system, Miss Maxwell said.
