Alaska Public |. Health Program Will Continue

the present program LII PuO4-S health in Alaska will continue and expand" commented Dr. C. E. Al brecht upon his return from con- ferences in the States. He added that the Territory'S role in the de- fense and economic development of the nation is we'll recognized. After attending the yearly meet ing of the American Public Health Association in Boston, Dr. Al brecht met with the State and Territorial Health Officers in Washington, D. C. This meeting, called by the Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service, showed a strong interest in the development of local health units for the nation. These local units will assure better Public Health Programs in all communi- lies. Legislation will be introduced at the next Congress to provide funds for this program. Alaska's a,lo ment for this program will be considerable.
 It was also stressed at this meet 1 ing that the nation now has a great need for public health organiza- Sion. Woefully inadequate for any rational emergency. There is a se- rious shortage of trained person nel and a lack of over 100000 hos pital beds. At the present time most of these shortages exist in the rural areas where the need is the greatest.
 ] Other agencies contacted by Dr. Albrecht included the, American [ Public Health Association, he National Tuberculosis association and the American Social Hygiene Association, for discussion on the l Alaskan Health Plan and the re- : cruitment of personnel to carry on ! this program.
 | While in Chicago Dr. Albrecht visited the University of Chicago Clinic, where twelve Alaskan crip- pied children are receiving he : pest of orthopedic care. II am i'm i pressed Dy the inest;nla@ole value of this project and the cooperation of the many individuals concerned NhO make this program possible" pr. Albrecht stated. Two crippled cliltr2n are accepted monthly by the c.inic free of charge, and their lranSpor ation Is furnished by the National Red Cross.
 The Commissioner of Health al- 50 visited .le Tice Laboratories in Chicago, source of the BCG vac cine being used by the Health De- , partment for the vaccina | on against tuberculosis.
 Enroute home, Dr. Albrecht met with officials of the United States Public Health Service in San Francisco. The main object of dis cussion was the Arctic Health In stitute. This facility, to be located at the University of Alaska, will attract leading specialists 10 work on many public health and medj- cal problems peculiar to Alaska, such as sewage disposal in perm anently frozen ground and hous- ing. This should be forward step in alleviating many unsolved problems of living conditions in the interior.

WASHINGTON = A national
lottery in Israel to sell govern
ment bonds which pay no interest
has attracted widespread atten-
ton here.
Treasury Department insiders
have expressed amazement at the
lottery which is rapidly draining
initiation money in Israel. The
Israeli plan is being observed by
congressman, some of whom have
for years advocated public lotter-
les to stimulate bond sales.
A recent editorial in the Wash
ington Times-Herald urged that
the United States adopt Israeli
Finance Minister Eliezer Kaplan's
lottery idea. The editorial ridi-
culed a series of raids directed by
U. S. District Attorney Morris
