FAvoRs $4,000 FOR

Humane Institutions Committee Sees
Baokus Hospital Needs.

Senator John FL. Barnes, who ac-
companied the committees on humane
institutions and appropriations on
their recent visit to the Backus hos
pftar and the Wins1ow Williams farm,
has been busy on the propositions con-
corning these places ever since. The
committee on humane institutions has
reported favorably a bill appropriat-
ing $4,000 for a nurses dormitory at
the w. W. Backus hospital, and this
matter was referred to the appropria-
tons committee. said to be favorable
to the project.
The committee on appropriations
will probably report favorably the
proposition to remove the School for
Imbeci1es from Lakeville, with an ac-
companying appropriation of 10000.
The bill submitted specified that the
new location be left at the discretion
OF the trustees of the school, who are
welded to a site in Simsbury. The
committee will change that section so
that the governor will appoint a com
mittee of one senator and two repre-
sentatives to select the site. If this
plan prevails the Winslow Williams
farm site will receive consideration.

Dearth of Physicians.

The serious situation which has
arisen in Scotland owing to the
6fearth of physicians is emphasized by
a notice issued by the Scottish Emer-
gency Medical Service Committee ap-
pealing to the public to refrain from
calling upon doctors unnecessarily.
The appeal says:
ut will help materially to relieve
the great strain now imposed on med
ical practitioners remaining at their
posts throughout the country-many
Of whom are at present working If
teen or sixteen hours a day-if pa
tients will send for the doctor early as
possible and to allow him to arrange
his daily round with d view to econo-
my of time. When the case is not an
urgent one and a visit the next day
would suffice, this should be stated.
Local educational authorities are
asked to note that, important as is
medical inspection of school children;
it is not nearly so urgent as the care
of those who are dangerously i'll. An
appeal is therefore made for the re-
lease of school medical officers entire
ly or in part during the present erner-
gency."
Retired doctors are invited to offer
their services, and the younger lee
turers and assistant in the medical
schools and hospitals are asked to
forego their usual Easter holidays or
to substitute for them change OF
work
