GROUND SELECTED FOR NEW
HOUSES AT NAVY YARD.

The United States government has
selected the site for it's community
housing project to take care of the en-
ployes at the Algiers Naval Station.
The site. embracing forty-four acres,
lies south of and Immediately adjacent
to the naval station, the property Of
J. j. Manson, NJ Abascal and Gus
Kohn. Authority to purchase or con-
denim the tract was given George w.
Person, negotiator United States
Housing Corporation, Thursday in
telegram from the Department OF La
Dor, of which the housing corporation
is bureau. One of the three tracts
has been purchased. Action on the
other two will be taken within a day
or two, Mr.. Pearson says.
Approximately 200 comfortable and
modern houses will be erected. The
number decided upon is based upon the
return of questiOnnaires sent employees
who signified their desire to remove to
the community. At present the en-
ployes are scattered about Algiers and
New Orleans proper.
Construction work will follow install
lation of sewerage, water and other
utilities. j. w. Billingsley, civil en-
gineer, of this city. is now in Wash
ington. II is expected that he will re-
turn in a few days.and begin work on
the project Messrs. FavrOt & Livau-
dais, architects, will supervise the erec-
ton of the buildings when the utilities
have been installed.
Originally a site of approximately
thirty-seven acres, lying west of the
naval station was considered. Mr.. Per
son rejected 1t when he viewed the one
now selected. The sit decided upon
abuts the street car line; IL is near the
public school and opposite the main
entrance to the naval station. 81 con-

originally pointed out" Mrs. Person

ployes. The original site was not so
handy to the station; 1t lies near the
Southern Pacific railroad yards-an
objection on account OF the noise and
smoke; twenty homes are on that site,
requiring removing, whereas there is
but one on the tract selected"

EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED
FOrty-five Patients Admitted Up II
Today.
Services Given BY Algiers Noble
Women.

The establishment here of an
emergency hospital through the eff
forts of Mayor Behrman and Dr.
VIM. H. Robin, president of the City
Board of Health, has been the means
of allaying the suffering of many lit
tie ones and very sick people suffer-
ing from the present epidemic of in
fluenza.
The hospital was established in
record time. Three days after the
Mayor, DR.. Robin and Father Larkin
had looked over the premises, patti
ents were being admitted and being
cared for. ThrSS.Sh the efforts of
our ministers of the Gospel and ply
sicians in our town, deserving people
in destitute circumstances were rash
ed to this institution, where they
were given every consideration for
the disease, from which they were
suffering. Arrangements were
made to establish, at once, a first
class kitchen, additional plumbing
was installed; extra lights were
placed, and an instantaneous water
apparatus all placed ready to work
within a record time.
In addition to the hospital. there
was also established a drug depart
ment in charge of a competent drug
gist and every convenience has been
supplied for taking care of the pa
tents.
The physicians in Algiers are CO.
operating with the volunteers at the
hospital and a harmonious force has
been established which is working
hand in hand for the benefit of the
suffering. DR.. VIM. H. Robin has
taken q special interest in this in
stitution and comes over every day
to see how things are going. The
priests and ministers are making
regular trips to the institution and
tho visiting physicians hre caring
for their patients just the same as
if they were millionaires establish
ed in some private high priced insti-
tuition.
Mrs. Ella Mills is the head matron
of the institution, while Mrs. Charles
Corbett is the head nurse.
Too much praise could not be
showered upon the ladies who have
volunteered their services at the hos
pital. and have been giving up al
most all of their time for the bene-
fit of the influenza sufferers. Two

RED CROSS NOTES.

For some days startling events al
home consumed our whole time and
energy. AS usual the Red Cross
proved itself a band of mercy, when
Red Cross headquarters were aban
doned at the K of c. Home and the
building converted into an emergency
hospital, with many of our Red Cross
members as nurses and aides to the
physicians, and clergy of .Algiers.
Our Branch chairlady, Mrs. E. Mills,
is a leader among the ladies', who
are working so admirably among the
suffering in this dreadful crisis.
The Surgical Dressings class, now
working at the Belleville School An
mex, has completed since the last re-
port 2126 operating masks, which
have been delivered to the New Or
leans Chapter A. r. C. There still
remains 2274 to be made. The work
has been greatly retarded by the
prevailing epidemic, which has ma
terfally diminished our working
force. Owing to the very small
number of workers who have come
to the workroOm during the morning
hours, it has been decided to work
in the afternoon only, until further
notice, therefore our workroom will
be open every day except Saturday
from 100 to 500.
The emergency order for 1000
STA pads still remains untouched
and the October allotment consisting
of 200 PA pads and 100 muslin bags
has just been received. Thus il will
be seen that large number of work
ers are needed to turn out this
amount of work. Therefore, we
urge those who have not yet partici.
pated in the work of our branch to
do so to make up the deficit.
A false impression has been made
upon the minds of many of the AL
giers people concerning salaries of
Red Cross workers. There is abso.
lutely no pay attached to the work,
save for office force and negro de-
livery men of the New Orleans Chap
ter. All others. from the general
chairman and captains of work in
the branches, who give their undi-
vided time or a large division of time
to the work to the persons who de-
FOACS an nun htchly, the OUIy re-
muneration is the satisfaction of do
ing ones meagre part to bring
some aid and comfort to our bleed
ing. fighting men. These ideals can
not be measured in money. The
work itself is really paying a debt
we owe to those whose names we find
daily on the ever-increasing casualty
lists. AS the lists of the wounded
grow, the lists of the Red Cross
workers should grow in proportion
II we are to meet the demands made
upon us by our overseas hospitals
for carrying on the work of saving
our American boys.
We hope this message will reach
every one in Algiers. who had that
false impression, and We hope also
to add many names of ladies who
are willing to work in Algiers fol
the boys at the front, with sense oil
having done their duty, as theil
only, yet greatest reward.

MONEY FOR WORK
LEGISLATURE VIII Be Asked 10
Aid Geological Survey.
Take Care of Needed COndi.
tiOns in Kansas.
RAYMOND C. MOORE fAVORS IT
Appropriation Would Encour'
age His Services.
Tests Would Be Made Upon
Land Owner Petition.

The Kansas legislature will be asked
for an appropriation of $4,000 for the
creation and maintenance for two
years of a state geological survey. I'm
der provisions of a bill which will be
waiting for the law makers when they
come to Topeka, the new state depart
ment will be in charge of examinations
and reports of mineral resources OF
the state.
At this time the state must call for
r,ifde and a chart in order to locate its
geological department. Almost any
one at the state house can assure an
inquirer that such a department exists.
But there is little knowledge whether
the department is located at the State
university or at the state printing
plant. Provisions of the new meas
ure. however. will provide scope of
work sufficient to keep the states es-
sential mineral interests on the map.
Study OF Resources.
All manner Of examinations as to
mineral deposits will be conducted by
the geological survey under terms of
the bill as now drawn. Its provisions
call for a study of petroleum, natural
gas, coal, lead. zinc, salt, gypsum, ce-
l.,
materials. silos and water supplies and
to collect and assemble geological and
mineral specimens. An extensive
printing program is outlined in a Sec
ton providing that the survey shall
prepare and have published a state
geological library. 1t is also provided
that exhibits for fairs may be pre-
pared and displayed by the director OF
the state survey.
Work OF the state survey would be
placed under the supervision and di-
rection of q state geological commits
sion, the bill recites. This commission
would be composed of the governor,
who would become ex-officio chair
man. Other members of the commits
sion would be the chancellor of the
state university and president of the
state agricultural colleger. The COM
mission would name a director Of the
survey and such other field assistants,
specialists and office assistants as
may seem necessary. No provision as
to salary sche dulles is fixed in the
present bill. Members of the COM
mission would serve without pay, altho
they might receive their actual and
necessary expenses.
Tests Upon Petition.
The purpose of the bill is to create
a state department that would be of
real value and assistance to men in
terested in the mineral resources of
Kansas. Raymond C. Moore. present
state geologist, is interested in the
passage of the present bill and believes
1t will meet a real necessity in de-
velopment of the states mineral re-
sources. Under provisions of the bill
the state survey would be required TO
make tests as to mineral deposits upon
petition of fifty land owners in the
district where there is belief that
valuable ores or minerals are de-
posted. An appropriation of $4,000
year is asked for maintenance of the
dc"artment.
