As the German losses in III" C0'ir Ian

aud the wastage of German strength
along the western front has been in
creasing, it is probable that at The
present time the total losses of Ger
many amount to two million men.

ASK BOND ISSUE FOR

Request made by trustees of the
Moline city hospital that the board
be allowed to issue bonds for S25,O00
was discussed az an informal session
of the Moline city council, held this
morning after the regular meeting.
The bond issue is said by trustees
TO be necessary for the construction
OF laundry and other needed i'm
proyements, At present the laundry
work at the institution is SO heavy
that il costs approximately $100 a
month for extra laundry work that
must be done by outside agencies.
What action the council viii take
is problematical It has been suggest
ed that the hospital authorities IN
crease the charge to patients who do
not live IN the city of Moline and thus
Increase the revenues. At present
many patients from this city and from
surrounding country are being cared
for in Moline.
There is some question also as to
whether or not It would be advisable
at this time 10 increase the bonded in
debtedness Of the city. and the ques-
ton OF what effect the completion Of
the Augustana hospital will have on
the city hospital has also been raised.
