Sheriff Dutremble cites food cost decrease in county jail

Sheriff Richard Dutremble campaigns for a fourth term citing budget notes from 1952 to 1954 showing higher per-prisoner food costs than recent years. He points to a 1965-67 period with 2,132 prisoners and $26,910 in food, versus 1,242 prisoners and $24,202 in 1952-54. He claims savings due to wholesale buying and asserts budget surpluses and added capital improvements. He lists on-call staff and guards, arguing the department offers stronger protection since 1952 despite higher salaries.
