Hospital To Seek
Additional Funds
For improvements
New Heating Plant And
More Beds Sought-Harry
HOskinson Chairman

A campaign to raise funds for a
new heating plant and additional beds
at the Montgomery County General
Hospital will start September 49,,
under the craftsmanship of Harry
Hoskinson, of Germantown. Mrs. B.
Peyton Whalen, of Bethesda, has been
appointed chairman Of the gifts COM
mittee and Mrs. Walter E. Perry, Of
Bethesda, win serve as secretary of
the committee.
The drive will center principally in
the northern part of the county, par
ticularly in Silver Spring, Takoma
Park, Bethesda and Chevy Chase
from which the hospital has been
drawing an increasing number of
patients in recent years, Mr.. Hoskin-
son announced, although subscrip.
tions also will be sought from other
communities in the county. The cam
paign will last for only two weeks.
Although the hospital, which was
founded in 1918 on a modest scale
now has forty beds which are well
filled most of the time, constant en-
ergencies require that the facilities
be enlarged. The hospital is able to
meet its current operating expenses
out of its receipts from pay-patients
but because of the large number OF
charity cases is unable to finance adj
ditions to the building or major re.
pairs.
Intended primarily at its founding
to serve residents in the immediate
vicinity of Olney and Sandy Spring
the institution gradually has beer
drawing more and more patients from
other parts of the county, including
many from the suburban area north
of the District, from the District it.
self, and also from adjoining counties
and nearby states.
Citing an example which occurred
last Saturday night when three EN-.
Urgency accident cases arrived at the
hospital within ten minutes, Mr.
Hoskinson stressed the need of in
creased facilities for handling emer-
gencies. No additional private rooms
are contemplated, but there is a press
ing need for more beds in wards. 1t
is hoped that sufficient funds will be
raised to permit an addition to the
present building, large enough to care
for twelve new ward beds.

AS We See It
BIZ MONTCO

MARYLANDERS CAN POINT
with dignity and pride to the election
results last Monday. In terms which
leave no doubt as to the temper of
Maryland mocrats, Senator
Tydings was nominated by majority
which was not dreamed of prior to
the activity of Washington in behalf
OF Congressman Lewis. AS distin-
guished visitor to Maryland President
Roosevelt was received with the
courtesy and respect due him. But as
a politician he was rebuffed. It is
probable that not soon again will a
national administration attempt to
guide Maryland voters. Whatever
shortcoming he might possess, Sena-
tor Tydings will return to the United
States Senate with the overwhelming
confidence of his people. He will be in
position to make battle with the
definite knowledge that Maryland
would rather him make honest and
independent mistakes than to blindly
follow a program with which he is
not in accord.

men have appointed the following as

Independent Democratic ticket. 1t is
hoped that the leaders of the latter
group, who made the fight against
outstanding odds, will forget those
personal differences which naturally
arise in the heat of a primary and
work hard for the Democratic slate in
November. Montgomery County is
predominately Democratic and a
Democratic government will be in
power for the next four years if
united efforts are put forward. The
first step was taken when certain
anti leaders agreed to let bygones be

certify last Monday. 1t will likely be a
hard fight for some posts in the
General Election-let US strive to
make it a clean fight.

The test between the United Demo-

conclusive victory for the harmony

The final vote from the Clarksburg
district will probably not be available
until Friday tomorrow when the
official canvass is returned.
With complete returns still miss
ing from several counties, leaving
them in doubt as to their selection
for Governor, and with the Second
Choice result unknown in other
counties, the people of Maryland are
still in doubt as to who will be
the Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor in November. There is no
doubt, however, in the manner that
Democrats rallied to the banner of
Senator Willard E. Tydings. With
a sweeping victory which gave him
four of six legislative districts of
Baltimore and nineteen of the twen-
ty-three counties, Senator Tydings'
popular majority vote has scared to
well over fifty thousand.
Two facts stand out in bold re-
lief as result of last Mondays
primary election experience. First,
is the slowness of Baltimore voters
on the new voting machine. It was
the first test for the. machines in
city-wide use. Delay was attributed
to the fact that so many people could
not operate the various levers and
to the unusually long ballot. Second,
is the complete lack of knowledge of
the application of Maryland's second
choice law and the demands from
many quarters to have it changed.
1t was evident that, in most in
stances, voters did not trouble them
selves to vote the second choice
This was especially true in the
counties. In Baltimore the voting
machines allowed a vote for both
first and second choice in one opera.

on the printed ballot and it is prob

the story Of the need for water has
changed little since Los Angeles and
Its surrounding group Of towns first
started to grow beyond the limit Of
their local supply.
The first flood was turned loose
when the st. Frances Dam, q Los
Angeles city water reservoir, broke on
March II, 1928. Caught in that
swirl Of water were 3s7 persons. They
were swept to death without warning.
The towns Of Santa Paula ana Fill
more bore the brunt Of upwards OF
$4,000 900 damage.
The Southland remained compara-
lively safe from the ravages Of floods
for almost six years. Then, on New
Year Eve, 1888, raging torrents poured
down from the foothills. Heavy rains
turned dry river beds into seething
streams. Through suburban La Cres-
centa the wild waters sped.
Days later, after the rushing yellow
wave had disappeared in the blue
Pacific, the death count was fixed al
43. with SO missing. Damage was
estimated at more than $5,O0O.0o0.

FIGHT FOR WATER
Too Much Liquid, Then Not
Enough Has Cost 500
Lives.
By the Associated Press.

LOS ANGELES, March 26.-South-
ern California's fight for and against
water, a paradoxical campaign for half
. century, has been intensified by the
recent devastating flood.
Since the start Of the century too
much water and the lack of it has
cost this once semi-arid region, now
peopled by more than 5000 900 per-
sons, hundreds Of millions OF dollars
and more than 500 lives.
As rehabilitation work moves ahead
today to erase the SOS .000, 900 scar left
by the March flood, which swept at
least 70 to their deaths, engineers are
directing their attention toward COM
pletion of water supply and flood con-
troll projects designed to regulate the
how as simply as turning a faucet off
and on.
Workmen are pressing toward COM
pletion a $22O,O0O,000 metropolitan
water district project that will bring a
billion gallons of water a day from the
distant Colorado River.

Requests have been made from the
War Department for $4,000, 900 to be
used Immediately in flood control prof.
ects. Thirteen million more will be
needed. A hundred million has been
spent for such work In the past.
Southern California today has more
than million-and-a-ha -half-acre feet of
water stored behind almost hundred
dams that represent an investment of
$67.15l,631.
Yet Los Angeles, with a goodly
source Of water supply from the distant
high Sierra Mountain range through
the Owens Valley aqueduct, needed to
pool interests with dozen other cities
to bring in more water-life blood of
the Southland that so recently was
inundated-through a 24l-mile arti-
ncial stream which courses through
mountains and over deserts.
