The arrest was in Avon Lake on Lake Road House when he was over in the other chamber. The Senate trimmed the General appropriation by about 900000 net from the House plan, cutting 2000000 set aside for roads due to the gasoline tax. It added items reducing paper saving and included 500000 for Welfare. The Soldiers Orphans Home at Xenia got 250000, Kent Normal School 90000, and the School for the Blind 50000 for two cottages. The new aeronautics department and other divisions received small sums. Senator George H. Bender criticized hospital funding, prompting Finance Chairman Kumler to defend the budget.
