Food Supplier Case Goes To Grand Jury INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The case of an Indianapolis food wholesaler accused of supplying sub-standard foodstuffs to state institutions will be turned over to a Marion County grand jury. State Police Sgt. Robert Gray and Ned Green, a buyer for the Indiana Department of Administration, discussed the case at length Thursday with Prosecutor Phillip Bayt. The food was pur- . chased by the state from Koehi ler’s Restaurant Supply Co., Indi- ■ anapolis. Deputy Prosecutor Francis Thomason said after the meeting that the two state investigators 1 “presented documentary evidence and sworn statements indicating there had been some misfeasance. The evidence will be placed before the grand jury.” James Berg, state purchasing director, had charged that, in some cases, food purchased from Koehler was not of the specified quality and in others the quantity delivered was less than that ordered. Berg barred the firm from doing further business with Hie state. Koehler’s business with the state had amounted to more than $1 million annually. In another development, Berg appeared before the State Budget - Committee Thursday to ask for a funds to hire three inspectors to ] check food delivered to state instii tutions. t Bferg said the inspectors also would conduct schools for institu1 tional employes who have the j duty of receiving all types of supplies. The budget committee indi- . cated it would approve the re- > quest. „ . . [ He reported to Governor Welsh > that following his announcement that Koehler had been barred from future state business, four . other suppliers called and said they would like to bid on the next . contracts. Berg said a check would be ; made of complaints about substandard merchandise being de- ' livered to institutions. Welsh assured him that if additional police were needed for the check, they would be assigned. Veteran Logansport I | Attorney Dies Friday • LOGANSPORT, Ind. (UPD ~ 1 Robert C.
