the young life of Cuba. 1t is an organization
which follows many of the measures adopted
by the Children's Bureau of Washington.
creating dispensaries clinics, homes. and
these efforts meet the manifold needs If
Cubas youth. This important phase of the
governments ambitions as carried out by
DIR. Despaigne is being most effectively
fulfilled.
Like all countries, Cuba must solve the
universal problem of caring for those who
cannot care for themselves. To meet this
problem the Department of Public Health
and Welfare operates Home for the Indi.
gent, located in the 'NIercado de Ia Puri-
sima' site. Many modern conveniences have
been installed, such as medical clinics.
dental dispensaries, pharmacies. provisions
for clothing, barber shop, special kitchens.
etc. The people of Havana and of all Cuba
view with keen appreciation the efforts that
Col. Despaigne and his able assistants are
making in this charitable work.
With the object of creating greater un.
derstandlng and greater cooperation the
department has been in constant communi.
cation with many leading institutions in
the United States, such as the Public Health
Service, the Pan-American Bureau and the
Rockefeller Foundation, as well as leading
american medical colleges like Cornell,
Johns Hopkins, Harvard and Columbia. In
addition, the department has located in
Habana the School for Tropical Medicine,
part OF the Finlay Institution, which has
won international recognition. In this vital
held under Col Batistas guiding hand,
cuba and the men who have dedicated their
efforts to the investigation of tropical dis.
eases, offer much that is unattainabIe in
most other tropical countries.
