Feeding Allowance Reform Cited By West Virginia Chamber
The West Virginia Chamber of Commerce cited Mingo County as a model of proper spending in criticizing jail feeding costs. It praised Sheriff of Mingo County for refusing the old and new feeding rates since January 1945, billing the county for actual costs only. The bulletin noted five months of feeding costs and contrasted county budgeting with Sheriff profits, urging taxpayer savings. It also announced a new radio program featuring Professor John W. Matheney discussing local history and social science at West Virginia Institute of Technology.
