According to Mrs. Mays the fire

buildings embraced in the Casualty
group being heated by furnaces.
The condition Of the heating plants.
she stated, is to make the fire risk
a real one.
Taking issue with Mrs. Mays as to
the fire hazard existing at the in.

Emergency and Casualty in
Need Of 100000 to Clear

An appeal to the public for
100000 will be made by the
directors Of Emergency Hospital
on or about March l, it was an
nounced today by Woodbury.
Blair, president of Emergency
and Casualty hospitals.
The fund will be used to clear
the institutions of debt, to fur

for INDECENT and other patients
and to provide for the ever
increasing demands on the hos

Need Home for Nurses.
Among the other necessities is a
new home for the nurses. or the
buildings now temporarily occupied
by the nurses. one is leased at con.
siderable expense to the hospital.
and the other two are dilapidated
buildings in every way unfit for
occupancy, according to Blair.
The maintenance and operation Of

over by Emergency, he pointed out,

ment at the hospital because of in
ability to pay for such service,
Blair asserted
The fees allowed by the Board
OF Charities entails a loss to the
hospital Of $1.70 per day for each
patient accredited to the District Of
Columbia" he stated. but even
the small compensation allowed for
charity patients is preferable to no
remuneration and is received CRATE
fully.
Many Emergency Cases.
II have gone into these details
to show that with most careful
management the actual maintenance
OF the hospital entails a loss Of not
less than 100000 per annum. which
does not include replacement, ex-
tension Of service and improved ef-
ficiency.
But when the extent Of the serV-
ices rendered to the community,
which included 6,516 emergency pa
tients out Of total of 17,026 pa
tients treated at the institution
during the past year. the deficit Is
not unreasonable, and proves the
