JUDGE G. S. ROBINSON, OF BOARD
OF CONTROL, HERE TO LOOK
OVER GROUND.
MORE ROOM WANTED
FOR OLD COUPLES
Problem, However, is What to Do to
Care For Present Occupants Of Old
Mems Building, Which II is contem-
plated to Remodel-Many Want Ad-
mission.

Judge q. S. Robinson, Of the state
night Thursday, arriving from indie
laendence to investigate the plans for
renlodeling quarters at the Iowa Sol
diers' Home, in order TO provide adj
ditional room for old people. Fifteen
or twenty couples are now ON the wait
ing list for mem bership, and there are
10 rooms available. AS the cold
weather approaches this list will be
larger, and it is hoped that before that
time the work of remodeling quarters
may be- finished.
There is one serious problem, how
ever, that confronts the board in max
ing the proposed change. and that is
what 10 do with the old men who now
occupy the present old mems build
ing.
The idea has been to remodel the
old mems building and provide addi-
tional quarters for old couples. 1t Is
believed that this arrangement would
provide quarters for about thirty OF
forty couples.
To care for the present occupants
it has been the plan to remodel the
old quarternlasters building into an
old mems building, but this will only
accommodate about one-half of the
present membership of the old mems
building. Other buildings of the home
are crowded, or will be when mem
bers out on furloughs return for the
winter.
Judge Robinson's visit was not 70,
the purpose of making any definite de-
cision on the subject, but to go owe,
the ground, acquaint himself with facts
and conditions, and report to the board
1t is likely some definite decision will
be reached very soon.
