Federal Aid Sought to Repair County Prison and Homes
Brie county experts seek about 75000 from the civil works administration. Of this 75000, 20000 will fund repairs to the county prison with the rest for other county institutions. A new county prison with federal money is not planned. The old county home on Ridge Road may be used for indigent families or a tuberculosis hospital in the future. Federal funds may also repair houses on land sold for unpaid taxes. The prison board voted to repair the present institution. Commissioner Helen Schluraft noted most money will fund labor.
