Criticized Division Hospitals.
Dr. Hartsuff took positive ground
against the establishment of division
hospitals at the expense of the regi-
ments and gave his reasons therefor. He
thought that a division or field hospital
was a necessity, but he did not think it
should be built up as at present by TAX
ing surgeons. stewards and ambulances
from the regiments. but rather as an in
dependent institution. He had found
that regimental surgeons and nurses
transferred to a division hospital were
not so capable of rendering good service;
many were quite useless. Furthermore,
there was immense confusion in trans
ferring the regimental effects to the hos.
pital and sending them back when the
regiment was ordered away. 1t was,
he said, a case of confusion worse con
founded.

Couldn't you. as chief medical officer
have controlled the matter" he was

NO sir: it was an order Of the secre
tary Of war, and under this order n

He thought this order unfortunate
that in carrying it into effect. the worl
of caring for the sick was greatly inter
fered with, and that no one was bene
fitted by it.
DR.. Hartsuff also expressed the opin
ion that the water supply of the caml
was not good.
