Hospitals

expansion in existing hospitals can
be made in several places at a mini
mum cost without creation of sep
arate administrative staffs or the
necessity of building additional utili-
ties or fundamental facilities.
For example, the heating plants
and laundries at Gallinger and
Glenn Dale Hospitals are such that
1000 beds could be serviced in those
two hospitals-400 at Galllnger and
600 at Glenn Dale-Without necessity
for construction of new heating and
laundry plants.
Subsidies Urged.
additional saving of critical ma
terials could be accomplished by
using the type of construction that
is now being used in the new tenn
porary Government Office buildings.
Hospital units constructed along
these lines could be built, equipped
and stated in about 80 days and
could be constructed at cost of not
more than 40 per cent of permanent
type buildings.
Existing hospitals have already
been asked to provide additional
beds. This doubling up process
should be organized more fully. 1t
Is recommended that hospital units
providing at least 1000 additional
beds, - be built Immediately; that
building of units with 1000 more
new beds be considered and that
Government subsidies and aid be
provided for hospitals"

which the Americans played their
part.
According to reliable information,
the British authorities forwarded
their order of liberation yesterday
and the French diplomats will soon
be on their way back to their own
country. Among them is Jean Cont,
son of the former French Ambas-
Sador to Brazil, who headed High

worthy of note, coming as it does on
the heels of Winston Churchill's re-

bring their children there.

trapped in Hong Kong were DR.. w.
w. Yen. sometime Ambassador at
washington, and Eugene Chen, one
time foreign minister.
American commercial pilots, who
imperiled their lives to go to the

nights of hostilities. Prominent
among them were two of the Soong
sisters, Nine. Sun Yat-sen, widow
of the founder of the Chinese re-
public, and Nine. H. H. Kung, wife
of China's minister of finance.
