Under the law the state board of chari-
ties is required to Investigate the whole
system OF public charities and correc-
tional institutions of the state, examining
into the condition and management there

public hospitals and asylums.'
Divers statutes passed since the crea-

the board supervision over all plans. i'm r.
provements. new buildings and the gen
eral conduct of penal and eleemosynary
institutions.
The state board of charities was Oper-
ated in 1919 Mt cost of $35,655.56, OF
which a considerable sum was spent for
travelling expenses of the secretary of
the board, Amos w. Butler, who attended
a number of charities conferences in dis
tant cities for the purpose of studying
methods for the administration of char
ity.
Mr.. Buffers monthly salary voucher is
drawn for $333.33.
Failure of the board to make known
improper conditions in the Marion
county Jail was explained by Mr.. Butler
on the ground that the boards chief
function is to exercise supervision over
state institutions and that facilities for
inspecting and examining county and
other local institutions are limited

stand that the old fee system OF the
sheriffs' offices was wrong," said Mr..
Butler.

law be passed to prevent Incarceration OF
insane persons In penal institutions

dealt with the fiscal year ending Sept
