The care Of the INDECENT sick and
looking after the health of Honolulu
were two important matters which had
the attention of the Board of Health
this afternoon. In his address to the
board President Pinkham gave the fol-
lowing:
II wish to call your attention to the
appropr' alton of $21, 1000 for care Of
the INDECENT Sick of Oahu to be ex-
pended upon the approval of the presi-
sident of the board of Health in main
taining patients at the Queens Hos
pital, Leahi and Kapiolani Maternity
Homes"
Though not so indicated, I take it
to be my duty and privilege to lay the
matter before your honorable board.
Unquestionably there is some degree
of imposition both on the Government
and the hospitals by the improvident
and lndulgent in vice. but an investiga-
ton covering a long period can only
disclose the exact facts. This point
will have strict investigation.
Il doubt if public opinion would sup
port the president of the board should
he sanction any arrangement that
| would close either or all the hospitals TO
| the INDECENT sick for a day during the
! fiscal year ending June Goth, 1905. For
! eighteen months these hospitals have
averaged 105 INDECENT patients. The
| cost per patient has been from $.27 to
| s1.50 each per day; at present the cost
| is somewhat reduced.
''On the basis of the past eighteen
! months experience, the $21, 900 furnishes
! So IL cents per day per INDECENT patient
| 1t is evident that the hospitals and
| their endowments have been an aid TO
| the government. On July 90, and 2lst.,
your President visited each and every
| INDECENT patient-67 in number-in
these hospitals OF these one was pay
| ing $40 per month, one promisel to re
pay the hospital when recovered, and
one might be able to repay In part.

"The officers state this is the usual

solution has been found acceptable Il

The plan provides for accepting pa
