Public Health Hospital
Survey and Construction
For survey and planning $10,
000 and for construction $40,200;
those are preliminary estimates of
allotments to Alaska under the
Hospital Survey and Construction
Act which President Truman
signed on August 13..
At the Extraordinary Session of
the legislature this spring legisla
tion was enacted for a survey of
the hospital facilities and estab
lishment of a plan in order that
the Territory might receive the
benefits of the federal act. Both
acts call for a survey of the over
all needs for hospitals and allied
facilities and the preparation of a
Territorial plan for all future hos
pital constructions. The responsi
bility for the survey and future
planning for hospital construction
has been designated to the Terri
torial Department of Health.
Although the federal bill au
thorizes appropriations up to $75,
000,000 each year, no federal
funds have yet been appropriated
for construction. When the con
struction funds are made avail
able, the Territorial survey must
be completed and the Alaska plan
approved before construction ap
plications can be accepted by the
U. S. Public Health Service.
Construction applications must
be submitted to the Territorial
Department of Health,and recom
mended by the department to the
Surgeon General.
Since the Hospital Survey for
Construction Act calls for match
ing funds on a 2 to 1 basis, any
application for construction must
give assurance that two-thirds of
the total cost of the construction
project will be available from
non-federal funds.
Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, Territorial
Commissioner of Health, states,
“The survey authorized under
I both the federal and territorial |
Acts has been set in motion and
! when completed will be accom
panied by a plan and forwarded
to Washington for approval. Each
Alaskan community should give
every assistance in the completion
; of the survey. Until the survey is
I complete and the plan approved, I
I applications for construction need
not be submitted.”

INWOOD, N. Y., Oct. 9. (JP)—
What was to have been the happi
est day of Rose de Fabrizio’s life
turned into tragedy yesterday as
the pretty 21-year-old bride-to
be dropped dead in a church aisle
on the way to the altar.
The wedding march was being
played and John Mastantuono, the
20-year-old bridegroom waited in
the vestry for the signal which
would start the ceremony uniting
him with his childhood sweetheart
when she collapsed while walking
up the aisle on the arm of her
father, Louis. 1
