Letter Addressed to Mr. S. J. Ulmer from William S. Hall, M.D.

Letter to Mr. Ulmer, State Board of Health, stating that the Laundry houses too many pieces of equipment that need to be maintained. Some larger pieces cannot be expected to run much longer, and parts cannot be acquired. Total volume of laundry has risen, increasing by 71% in seven years. Furthermore, both the Laundry and the adjoining Kitchen and Bakery are overcrowded. Many items have to be stacked on the floor, even in close proximity to machinery such as the ovens. The Laundry is operating at full capacity and therefore not meeting demands. Dr. Hall informs Ulmer that the Victor Kramer Company is currently conducting a laundry management survey, and the necessary action--potentially the construction of a new laundry facility--will be determined soon.
