DR.. HAYES TALKS
ON TB PROBLEM
AT CHAMBER HERE
1000 Active Cases in Ter
ritory and Only
100 Beds

With 1000 active known cases of
tuberculosis in the Territory today,
there are only 100 beds available
for tuberculosis patients in all of
Alaska, Dr. George Hays of the
United States Public Health Ser
vice told members of the Juneau
Chamber of Commerce today.
DR.. Hays asserted that there is
no problem as important in Alaska
today as this, both economically
and otherwise, because the disease
strikes mainly those persons in the
prime of their productive life,
causing economic disaster not only
to individual families but also to
the community and Territory.
There is is times as much tuber-
culosis right here than in any other
place in the world, he said, further
emphasizing the problem.
Three hospitals which would help
solve the problem have been pro-
posed, he pointed out, and Alaska is
not expected to pay for these all
by itself. Federal funds will be
made available, it is believed, if
the present proposed program is APP
proved
The hospitals would probably be
at or near Nome, Anchorage and
Juneau-the one at Anchorage to
be turned over for this use by mill
tary authorities as soon as the
Army has no further use for it..
The other two would have to be
built and would cost several mil
lion dollars each.
DR.. Hays commented on action
taken by other cities, especially
Ketchikan, in urging that TB hos
pitfalls be erected near these cities
and noted a lack of such activity
in Juneau even though this would
be the site of one of the proposed
hospitals.
President Homer Garvin appoint
ed committee of three to look into
the matter for the Chamber of
Commerce and Juneau = Harry
Sporting, Mayor Harry Lucas ana
Charles w. Carter.
Members of the Chambers Exc
cutive Board for 1914 were elected,
the six being Harold Foss, X. G..
Merritt, Horace Adams, Herbert
Waugh, Jack Fletcher and DR.. J.
o. Rude. Homer Garvin automati-
cally becomes a member of the
Board after his term expires.
The new term begins January ].
DR.. E. w. Norris, also of the
Public Health Service, was guest
at today's meeting.

ann SHERIDAN,
RONALD REAGAN
At 10Th CENTURY

A lusty action drama that COM
bines breezy dialogue and torrid
romance, is at the Goth Century
Theatre, where Warner Bros luke
Girl" is shown. In the top roles
are Ann Sheridan, Ronald Reagan
and Richard Whorf-Sheridan and
Reagan as couple who struggle
along trying to make a living
wherever they can find 1t; and
whorf as the fellow who is going
to 60 places by throwing his scru-
pies to the wind Also featured are
George Tobias, Alan Hale, Gene
Lockhart, Betty Brewer and many
others.
luke Girl" has an exciting story
to tell, and tells 1t we'll. making
every line of dialogue, every bit
of action contribute directly to the
stark plot. Briefly, it tells how
simple, hard working people refuse
to be brow-beaten by man who
thinks his position gives him the
right to rule other peoples lives.
The stirring climax makes one
of the most exciting sequences to
have flashed across the goth Cen
fury screen this season.

uso MOVIES

Among the awards often made at
school graduation exercises is one
for the student who has shown the
greatest degree of improvement Of
one kind or another. Personally
we've not always been sure whether
such an award involved an unmixed
compliment: we've wondered just
how bad the winners status may
have been at the point from which
the upward climb originally started.
However that may be, there could
be no room for doubt as to the
certain winner if such a prize were
to be awarded in the USO right
now: it would surely be the Movie
Programs.
Not that we can lay claim to any

the pre- world-war-I amusement
era if not quite among the Klondike
nights, enduring here at least some
of the entertainment rigors that
the early Alaskans were obliged to

circuit now. Furthermore, thanks
to our friends of the Coast Guard
and to Ed Levin, we have enjoyed
the use of a number of other fea-

with owl and other shorts from
time to time. Most of all, the Club
is very deeply indebted to Mrs.
Laura Ordway for her generosity
over many months in lending us her
protector.
