Stark County alcoholics clinic ruled illegal operation
State Auditor James A Rhodes said the Stark County clinic near Navarre was illegal. State Examiner Floyd Aultman found commissioners had no legal right to establish it and renaming it a work farm did not legalize its operation. Opened in 1950 the facility housed 25 to 36 alcoholics with voluntary referrals and provided medical psychiatric guidance and work therapy.
