CHIEF PROPOSES SHIFT AT JAIL
Padded Cell Transfer May ‘Increase Guard Over Mental Prisoners.
- Police Chief Morrissey today studied plans to put mental prisoners under close = supervision by moving the isolated. padded cell at the city prison from the. first floor to a higher floor where such prisoners could be kept under constant surveillance. The Police Chief’s move came after the death last week of Mrs. Marie Carter, 49, who inflicted fatal injuries to herself while confined in the padded cell. She was placed there when City Hospital authorities could find no room for her in the hospital's crowded mental ward. According - to plans how under consideration, the cell would be moved either to the second or third floors, depending the location of plumbing and facilities.
Would Be Near Guards
" “The cell would then be near quarJers of jail attendants. In its pres-
ent location, the Chief sdid, the!
céll is away from the routine beat of guards. . Tt was during a period when no attendants were near that Mrs. Carter - suffered the injuries which
. caused her, death, Coroner E. R.
Wilson said. Punds - to mave the cell have been requested in the city’s budget, Chief Morrissey said. ’ _ Purther jail improvements, to be made next year if funds are granted by the city, include removing the. women’s cell block on the second floor of the jail to make room for a judge's chamber. Women are now placed in new cells on the third floor, the Chief said. The second floor block has been unoccupied for months. Removal of the cell block, Chief Morrissey said, would enable the Municipal: Judge to have easier access from his chambers to the courtyoom and provide more room for the crime prevention squad.

STATE TAX BOARD ASKS CO-OPERATION
_ The State Tax Board has asked | county auditors to help make easier.
its job of reviewing all local budgets in the state this fall. To do this, auditors are asked to furnish local budgets to the State Board in advance of local Tax Adjustment Board hearings. These will be gone over in advance. Then, after hearings, only budgets which call for a tax in excess of legal limits will have to be reviewed, the State rd pointed out. Those which stay within limits can be approved without further review.
