Raleigh, Aug. 17 (AP)—The situation at the State Sanatorium for persons afflicted with tuberculosis, where it was reported Saturday that approximately 36 patients must be requested to leave within the next six months because of the lack of space and funds, has been officially called to the attention of Governor McLean, it was stated at the executive’s office this morning.
Charles H. England, secretary to the governor, stated that he had telegraphed Mr. McLean at the camp where he is spending his vacation, advising him of the situation and that the governor in a communication today had mentioned being apprised of the conditions through the Associated Press on Saturday. Mr. England further stated that the executive had not made any statement as to his intentions in his reply, but the matter would be laid before him again when he returns, probably about the 25th or August.
From the front page of The Concord Daily Tribune, Monday, Aug. 17, 1925. Gov. McLean ran on a platform of budget cuts.
