MONEY CAMPAIGNS CONFLICT
Two Hospitals, Seeking Funds, In
terfere With Each Other

A conflict has arisen between the mana,
gers of two campaigns to raise money
for hospitals here because virtually
simultaneous dates have been set. A cam
paign for $500 900 for the Children's Hos
pital. of Philadelphia. will start October
IS. A campaign for $4,000 for a hospital
for negroes, to be conducted by the
Mercy Hospital and School for Nurses,
will start October 20.
The promoters of the latter campaign
have protested to the managers OF the
former that 1t will be impossible to wage
two such money-getting campaigns at the
same time. The Mercy Hospital workers
say they fixed the date first and that the
Children's Hospital workers are encroach-
ing on their ground.
E. T. Stotesbury, Arthur H. Lea and
other prominent Philadelphians will head
the movement to raise money for the
Children's Hospital. Some of those in
terested in that campaign say plans have
peen made and 1t will be impossible to
change them, and 1t is believed that no
action will be taken on the protest of DR..
