NEEDS!
«
friends all over the State making
known to those officials their needs
of assistance in getting children en
tered here. Obviously, this slow but
progressive manner of development | igjg.
was bound to meet with considerable
delay and much disappointment. It
has taken years to be developed and |
! crystalized to the point of action. I
, For Permanent Improvements, the j
amuont of *$600,000 was appropriated |
in 1947, $352,000 in 1948, by the Gen
eral Assembly,—total $952,000. This I
sum runs into figures that would
have been almost beyond our imagin-j
ation when the Institution was found-,
ed in 1918. Yet it is, in fact, the only,
i appropriation ever made that would
even provide more than a beginning
to meet the needs that were already
j in evidence. So much needed to be
I done and so much had never been
, done that, with the high cost of con-
' struction, it is easy to understand
I that a large job cannot possibly be
! finished with the amount above men-!
jtioned; yet, the amount available is
j going to be of tremendous assistance
; and will provide an immeasurable
J amount to help the many people that
! are waiting for it.
| To mention briefly a few needs
' other than actual new dormitory con- I
' struction, which is the way of adding
i new beds, w'e were obliged to spend
approximately $40,000 to provide an
adequate water supply by running a
: 6 inch main from our storage tank
j to connect with a main inside the city
' limits of Clinton. Old buildings that
I were temporary from the beginning,
; but which have stood for more than
a quarter of a century, must be re
placed with more permanent, sanitary j
i and comfortable structures. A build-
1 ing to house employees is necessary. I
Much new machinery and additions I
I to auxiliary service,—as laundry, kit-
! chen, dining room, etc.,—must be
■ provided, and considerable repairs
| to many other buildings are some of
: the compelling needs. We do antici-
{ pate being able to add approximately j
; 310 new beds and relieve crowding
! to a small degree with funds already
available and it is our hope that the
next General Assembly (1949) will
appropriate $600,000 as an additional
sum to complete our program of-
j buildings and improvements to the
i point where all current needs shall
1 have .been met except central heat-
! ing plants, and future needs for per-
i manent improvements should be re-
i latively small for the next several
j years. Siqce the construction of a!
new water line, two new dormitories,
a building for employees and two ^
small cottages for farmer and dairy
man represent the major beginning,
of our program, and this work has
not progressed very far, details of
! the program need to be carried over
until another Annual Report can be
made. Sutiice it to say that, during
the ensuing fiscal year, we expect
to have the pleasant experience of
much activity in this line throughout
