Asylum Maintenance and Electric Light Plant Funding Action
The report signed by Senators Baldwin Wright and Rine notes on March 31 the raise of the Asylum maintenance item from 20000 to 33600 and a new 2600 line for the electric light plant. It discusses a 25000 main building item that was not inserted into the main or loan bills, suggesting it was intended for the Loan Bill but forgotten.
