THE MARINE HOSPITAL SERVICE - No
Appropriation NeetIed-For two successive
years, including the present one, no appro-
pTiatiOn has been asked of Congress for the
marine hospital service. When the fact is
remembered that for forty years previously
Congress has been annually called upon to
make up deficiency of from one hundred
thousand to two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars, and the further fact that more relief
has been furnished during the past two
years than at any time since the OrganiZa-
ton of the service, this economical showing
speaks well for the management of the fund,
and leaves the present Congress with no.
thing 10 do in the way of "Tetrenchment," so
far as the seamen's fund is concerned,
