WHAT OF FUTURE OF
n. MS HOSPITAL CAMPsY
John Tombs, Back from Washington,
Thinks Camp Cody Has Chance
for Continuance

John Tombs. head of the aew health
department of the state government
who returned a couple Of days ago
from Washington gave the Albugueraue
journal the following interview which
throws some light upon the question Of
the future Of New Mexico's hospital
camps, including Cody:
"rhe biggest thing I ran into In the
public health line while hack east was
the SlO,OOO,0O0 scheme of the United
States public health service for the ex.
tension of their hospital and sanato.
rum system" said John Tombs. ex-
ecutive secretary OF the New Mexico
public health association yesterday. Mr..
TombS had just returned from trim TO
Washington and other eastern cities.
Mr.. Tombs stated that he believed
New Mexico would receive considerable
attention from the board that has been
appointed to handle the matter. He
was called into conference while I'm
Washington, and states that four loca-
tions in New Mexico were under con.
sideration at that time. The site oc-
cupied by the Hot Springs hotel at Las

port was In the main favorable. though

to the public health service and that a
decision win be reached IN that connec-
tion before the end OF the month. AL.
though no decision has heen actually
arrived at. the general Impression is
that Fort Stanton viii he abandoned
and scrapped.
The fact that the law providing the

giving the surgeon general power to
purchase new sites or engaee in new
construction restricts the bureau some

Is thought that any existing institu

room for expansion and extension In
large wav. through the requirement OF
adjacent land. would come within the
scope Of the limitations which the bu-
reau has TO work under.
