children sent there. But most OF the app-
cants desired medical Attendance for their alng lit
tie ones at home. Many Of those who had SEX chill
dren with them were asked why they did not apply
at the dspensarics for treatment; Some said they
could not pay the small charge for medicine they
required all the money they had to buy food: others
said they had been sent by the dispensaries 10 the
Mission because their children needed nourishmcut
than medicine.
