State Hospital board urges shift of patients to county homes
The annual meeting of the Regants of the Hospital for the Insane reports a need to economize space and move some patients to county homes. They urge converting county institutions into suitable homes for helpless feeble minded residents to free space for those needing medical care at the state hospital. The report notes the constitution requires counties to maintain homes, and recommends steps to develop county facilities. The board records the death of Anthony White and welcomes Dr. W. W. Ray, with Dr. B. W. Taylor set for reappointment.
