House Members Suggest Use of
Churches for Men Who
Are Wounded

Washington, April l5.-Ihe army
and navy medical officers have been
seeking substantial alotments from
the House Appropriations Committee
for new hospital construction. some
temporary and less part Of more
permanent nature.
The committee members are not in
clined 10 make extensive authorize
lions. Some have suggested that II
there are any unusual conditions to
be met in providing hospital accOmmo-
dations it should be accomplished by
acquiring private and public buildings.
It is pointed out that in time Of
emergency it should be possible 20
utilize churches and other large
structures as hospitals. The medical
officers prefer to have specially con-
structed buildings and not deper Il
upon the seizure of buildings and
their hasty equipment as hospitals.
The Navy Department will probably
acquire as many as six hospital ships.
These vessels have been tentatively
selected, and will be put in readiness
for active service with the feet where
necessary.
