tAkklSBl ltjf, May 81.
The Legislature next week will take the
hrst steps oward the actual construction
N a state home for inebriates where the
narcotic drug addicts can he taken and
cured under the direction of the State.
The bill was introduced i'm the Senate
ak weeks ago by Senator William c.
sproul Of Delaware County. and has been
IN the Senate Appropriations Committee
ever since.
senator Clarence ]. Buckman. chairman
Of the Appropriations Committee, today an
nounced that the bill will be reported out
when the General Assembly reconvenes next
Wednesday. 1t will carry an appropriation
Of about $4,000, which. Buchanan, ex-
plained, is sufficient to purchase the land
FOR the home and start construction. The
condition of the States finances. and the
burden that the war is placing upon them,
prevented a larger appropriation being
granted.
The Legislature of 1913 passed a bill to
establish the home. and granted an appro-
priation Of 100000 for the expenses of a
commission to select site and take the
preliminary steps. A large tract of farm
land in Cumberland County was selected,
and an option obtained on the land. II Is
still i'm force. The last Legislature failed
TO make any appropriation and nothing has
been done toward establishing the home
since 1918.
The Sproul bill is companion bill to the
Ware antelope measure. While the Ware
bill gives reputable physicians the right t.
attempt to cure addicts, under the dreC-
ton of the State Department of Health It
also provides for their treatment in insti-
tutions With this initial appropriation the
. construction can he started. and the Legis-
lature Of 1919 will be looked to for the
funds to complete the home.

Gray, the secfs- tary, is now securing prices on freight ing from a California Motor trucking concern which IS willing to make a contract. To shovel out the ore, how ever, will cost little more than 1t costs at the Dundee.
 If the freighting charge is not so heavy as to absorb all the profits, the Verde Squaw company will ship sur face ore as long as the price of cop per continue high.
