This Ukrainian Congress ma
turally does not expect America

General Chairman


intendent Of the hospital, and staff
physicians.
The Importance OF the special
medicine fund cannot be minimi2ed
according to doctors on st. Mary's
hospital staff. Without the extra
funds raised each year by the hold
ing of the garden party a very large
number OF patients would be unable
to have the advantage Of special
medicines and the use OF an oxygen
tent. Without the aid of the various
therapies used In modern medicine
recovery to health in many cases
would not be possible. In dispensing
the money realized by the annual
garden party the greatest care is
used; Its disbursement Is so regu-
lated to effect the best medical aid
where most needed, and 1t can be
readily seen, as pointed out by staff
doctors, that the progress and re-
covery of a large number of patients,
unable to pay for these medicines,
would not be possible without the
money realized through the efforts
of the special medicine fund COM
mittee.
