UNIVERSITY CLUB FAV0RS
EXPANSION OF HOSPITALS

The unanimous passage Of a reso-
luton favoring and recommending
the extension Of the present hospital
facilities Of South Bend and pledg-
ing the organizations material A.
nancial and spiritual support to the
advocated proposition masked the
regular weekly luncheon Of the
University club held at the Indiana
club building Friday noon.
Although the question Of extend
ing and charging the two hospitals
now operated here and the erection
OF an entirely new building was
thoroughly discussed by the various
spea 1ers. the consensus of opinion
favored the further support OF the
two institutions. DR.. J. w. Wilson
declared that the organization now
functioning in the hospitals could be
developed 70 do a like work II the
institutions were enlarged. He ad-
vocated the purchase Of new equip
ment and made a plea for imme
date action. stating that the present
arrangements were inadequate for
properly caring for the sick OF the
city.
L. J. Oare in "a few remarks gave
the legal points involved in the
erection Of a new building to be
supported by the county. He eX-
planned the law passed by the 1917
legislature which gave the county
authority 20 hold a special election
and If the voters so decreed, the
county commissioners can order the
construction OF a building. The sta
tute also provides for the manage
ment OF the institution by non
partisan board Of four members.

taxpayer would be materially in
creased if a county hospital was
built Nelson L. Jones advocated the
resolution which was passed. Other
