He listed improvements and new facilities funded by state and federal sources and outlined plans for new ward buildings, a chemistry building, and a needed tuberculosis hospital expansion. He emphasized self-sufficiency through inmate trades and warned of the Nor ton tuberculosis hospital’s inadequacy.
