CONFER ON CREEDMOOR
Governor Seriously Considering
Abandonment Proposition.
- TeIeErsnh to 90 Trib1ne /


Albany. Feb 1.-Cioyernor Hughes has taken up
for serious consideration the abandonment OF the
Creedmoor rife range site for the Long ISL
and State Hospital for the Insane. which was con
templated in bill introduced by Senator Raines
permitting disposal that site and the acquire
ment of another by the Lunacy Commission He
held 6 long conference to-day with J. Edward
Swanstrom and Hugo Hirsch OF the board of man
egers. and DR.. Q. NJ. Dewing. superintendent OF the
hospital. who are strongly opposed to the abandon
naent Of CreedTaoor and the Lunacy Commission
whose present attitude the question seems in
different
Real estate interests, concerning whose identity
there Is considerable mystery. behind the effort
TO have Creedmoor abandoned. Coupled with this
idea the part Of officials that the site is worth
too much money TO be used for an insane asylum.
offers have been made 10 the Lunacy Commission
by a Arm OF real estate agents to give two acres
in another section Of Long Island for each one Of
Creedmoor But to all this the board Of managers
is opposed.
There is not another spot on Long Island which
could be used to sucn advantage a Creednocr.'
said Nj Elrsh ''It IS easy of access The Long
Island Railroad has spoken OF putting a spur in
there, and this would be a still greater advantage
It seems the ideal spot for the new hospital
do know that plans for the hospital there
have been abandoned
The point Of this entire controversy which at It's
various stages has concerned the Lunacy Commits
sion Senator Raines and the board OF managers
seems 10 be that real estate people have set
their minds making q good thing out of Creed
moor regardless Of the fact that the state owns
it The old rife range is IN a section OF Long Isl
and where values are steadily and rapidly ap-
preciating dealer well could give two acres OF
land further the island for one Of Creedmoor.
because in Il years the appreciation in value OF
the creeduoor site would be several HUNDREDS per
cent while the other SITE starting perhaps at thu
same value, at the end OF the time would have in
creased only slightly in value All these things
will be taken into consideration by the Governor
He intends to get still further information on the
subject including information to who would
profit by getting Creedmoor. and where the STATE
would gain by taking any other site.
