ALLOWED MORE CLERKS

Beginning with the first of the month.
ten additional clerks were allowed the
local postoftioe and the local authori-
ties put the new men at work yester-
day morning to relieve the pressure of
work in the various departments. w.
II. Harrison, assistant postmaster, re-

stating that the additional number of
men would be allowed, which will
make the local clerical force number

ranged as an additional operating room
and could be used for other purposes
when not in use.
In addition physicians advise having
a special ambulance for carrying per-
sons who have been stricken on the
street or been injured.
The wagons which have been used
for this purpose in the past are the
same as the ones used to bring in pris-
oners. They are hard, springless af-
fairs and the stretchers are hung from
springs arranged in each corner. Per-
sons have been taken to the hospital
who are known to have tainted from
the pain caused by the severe joIting
of the wagons.
At present there is no free public
emergency hospital in Los Angeles
other than the receiving hospital
There is one which bears that title,
the emergency and general hospital at
AIS Crocker street, but this is a private
institution.
No Free Emergency Hospital
Frequently emergency cases are
treated at this hospital, but as it is
private institution run for gain no
person is kept there who cannot pay
their way. If an injured person is
taken there and it is found he cannot
pay the charges he is at once removed
to the county hospital after his injuries
are dressed in such way so he can
stand the strain of the journey.
There are about 100 rooms on the
two floors of this building and it is
possible for more than 150 persons to
be accommodated with beds there. One
physician, DR.. Henry S. Keyes, pres
ident of the Emergency Hospital as
sociation, is in charge at all times and
the hospital is under his direct man.

OF physicians which can be called upon,
but none are retained as attendants
at the hospital.
payroll of this hospital. They are not
trained nurses. but are allowed to re-
main there for the purpose of study.
They are paid a salary of Sc a month
after being there two months. 1t is
necessary for them to remain two
years before the course of training Is
completed.
This has been one of the faults pa
tients have found with the institution
Although these girls work at all times
under the direction of physicians it is
said they are expected to do the same
work as girls who have completed
their course of training and graduated.
Patients who have been in the hos
pital say that frequently mistakes are
made by these young women, who are
compelled to work long hours and pay
close attention and yet lack the edu-
cation necessary TO properly carry on
the work required of them.

SKULL AND HIP BROKEN
BY PASADENA CAR

Pat Lorwy, an employe of Sheerer's
grading camp was struck and seriously
injured by an inbound Pasadena car a
short distance from the city last night.
The man was removed to the county
hospital, where he was found to have
suffered a fractured skull and frac
tured right hip.
According to witnesses, Lowry was
standing near the track waiting for a
car. one approached bound for Los
Angeles and Lowry stepped nearer the
rails to signal it, He evidently stepped
too close, as the front of the car struck
him, knocking him to the street. 1t
was said at the hospital last night that
Lowry would probably die.

SAYS CITY NEEDS NEW 1
EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
|CHIEF KERN CALLSATTENTION TOFACT
Physicians Declare Los Angeles Should Have Some
Place to Treat Injured Present Institution Is
Insanitary and Poorly aged-Private
Institution Of Little Use

"I am heartily in favor of having
receiving hospital equipped with the
most modern appliances known to sur
gerry and one large enough to accom-
modate any reasonable number of pa
tients which may be taken to it. I
think a trained staff of surgeons and
nurses should be within call at all
times and that at least one good ply
sician should be on hand every hour
of the day and night"
This is the statement made by Chief
of Police Ed Kern when spoken to in
regard to a new and better equipped
receiving hospital.
"If new Jail is built, and 1 think
one will be in the near future" con-
tinued Chief Kern, 81 hope arrange
ments will be made to set apart four
or five rooms, all larger than the ones
now in use. for a hospital. 1 do not
see what difference it makes whether
this hospital is connected with the Jail
proper, so long as it is in the near
vicinity. So many police cases are
taken to the receiving hospital that it
is necessary that it be within call of
the officers. L think it is a good plan
to have it so arranged that patients
who are taken to the hospital will not
feel that they are within the Jail build
ing, as many persons object to this
feature of the present quarters"
Hospital Only in Name
Many prominent citizens of all pro-
fessions have been greatly interested
in the many articles which have been
published showing the methods pur-
sued by the physicians and attendants
at the receiving hospital. All these
men have agreed that Los Angeles is
in need of larger and better equipped
receiving hospital for emergency cases.
The present hospital is composed of
three rooms. One of these is kept as
an operating room while one of the
others has three beds in it and the
other four beds.
In the operating room there are two
couches and one operating table. The
majority of the operations are per-
formed on one of the couches. In case
of a great accident where many were
injured 1t would be impossible to ac-
commodate more than eight of the in
jured and 1T would be necessary to
remove the remainder of the injured to
some other hospital
According to the statements of ply
sicians well versed in hospital work,
what Los Angeles needs is an emer-
gency hospital so equipped that it will
accommodate at least fifty patients at
the same time.
Ambulanees Are Needed
This hospital should be so arranged
that one ward would be kept for wo-
men patients while another ward Would
be kept for the use of men who had
been injured or became i'll.
One room should be arranged so that
when person who had been injured
was taken in they could be taken to
that room and their clothing removed
before being placed on the operating
table or couch. The object OF this Is
80 that the operating room and bed
rooms could be kept clean.
The fourth room should be an operat-
ing room equipped in the most modern
manner and arranged so that every
care could be shown an injured per-
son. The fifth room should be ar
