Pinchot Approves 300000 To Buy New Prison Site
Harrisburg May 1. Governor Pinchot approves 300000 for a site for a new Eastern Penitentiary, less than the bill by Senator Salus and far below the budget. He notes publicity over potential misuse of the commission’s power and the need for a modern institution to replace the Cherry Hill facility. Other vetoes include a motor vehicle laws study commission and a 250 deficiency salaries grant for the bureau of plant industry.
