Provision in Pending Appropriation
Bill in Interest Of Rev.
enue Cutters.

Fifteen surgeons Of the public health
service will find permanent berths afloat
with vessels of the revenue cutter service
II Congress does not cut from the legisla-
tive, executive and judicial appropriation
bill the sum of 100000. which was in the
estimates for the service. The House of
Representatives omitted that much when
it passed the bill. but the amount was re-
stored by the Senate, and there is hope
that 1t will be agreed to in conference
and be in the bill as finally enacted.
Otherwise. what Congress has authorized
as a proper addition to the efficiency of a
revenue cutter-the presence of a ships
doctor aboard-may not be carried into
effect.
The need Of surgeons on revenue cut
ters has long been recognized. 1t is as
sured that the efficiency OF the revenue
cutter will be increased MANIFOLD by

casualties to be cared for on the revenue
cutter while 1t proceeds at once on an

Eight Vessels Have Surgeons.
Eight revenue cutters at this time of

patrol and ice observation duty.

the longest assignment to sea duty that
any of them receive. The Mccullough

Seneca. on ice observation duty, carry

1t is now contemplated that all these
ships provided with surgeons for such
special cruises shall remain SO equipped

cutters will have surgeons assigned to
