the Interior Department to appro-
pirate 100000 for the construction
and equipment of an addition to the
medical and dental school at Howard
University, here. OF the amount
sought. 100000 would be used for
the building and 100000 for equip
ment These amounts already have
been included in the estimates of the
appropriations for the Department of
the Interior for the coming fiscal year
II 1925. Secretary Work said yester-
day, and is due to the insufficient IA
rilities for the education of members
II the colored race in the medical and
dental professions existing through

The capacity providing additional labor
atories and equipment as well IS ac-
c"mmodating a 100 per cent increase
IN the number of students. Through
SoonoOO endowment raised by pub
]" subscription and a Gift from the
General Education Board of New
York. sufficient funds have been Sc
cured by the institution to provide
for additional instructors for it's
medical school during the next five
years.
Recent Investigations, the an
rouncement continued. show that the
colored population of the nation has
increased to nearly 100000 and that
there is Only one colored physician to
3.l9i persons, while the white race
has a physician to every 553 citizens.
III" disparity is even greater in the
proportion to white and colored dem
lists. according to the department.
statistics show that there is one
Hhite dentist to every 2,070 white
rsople in the United States while
there is but one colored dentist 70
every 20,500 colored persons.
'Deplorable limitation of the ca
pacity of colored educational institu-
lions is responsible for the forego-
ing situation, Secretary Work be-
HeVes. and he is cndeavoring to rem
dy this condition by increasing the
facilities for these types of profess
siunal education.
