BOARD OF HEALTH
REFUSES TO ENTER
HOSPITAL SCHEME
Declines to Join in Movement for
County tuberculosis Insti-
tuition at Soho.

Declaring hat the tail should moi
wag the dog" the local Board of Health
last night declined to enter into the
plan of the Board of Freeholders for
establishing a county hospital for the
treatment of advanced cases of tuber-
culosis.
DIR. Theodore w. Corwin and DR.. Her.
man c.. Fl. Herold, president of the
board, declared emphatically against
the scheme. The city would pay IS per
cent. of the cost, they said, and the
rest of the county would reap the
benefits. Besides, they declared, the
Board Of Health has its own ideas for
combating the disease and treating
advanced cases, and these ideas might
not fit in with those of the hospital at-
thorities.
FINALLY. after a proposition to refuse
to enter into the scheme at all had been
disapproved, a resolution was adopted
giving the president the power to APP
point a delegates to attend the joint
conference of the boards of health Of
Essex county. The attitude Of the
board will be explained. DR.. Herold
appointed DIR. Corwin as delegate.
