Staff members of the Hudson
Stuck -Memoiral Hosp'fal, at Ft.
Yukon, Alaska, as well as other
workers under Bishop Peter Trim
ble Rowe, who founded this great
service in Alaska four years ago,
are asking themselves the quet
tion, which even now they hartjly
i dare to formulate: Is it^true that
this _vital part .of the great Hu
manitarian program of the Epis
copal Church is in danger of col
lapse?
Mails bring rumors that cau-t
the hearts of doctors. nurses
nurses, teachers and missionary
workers to sink with dread fore
bodings, here in the sub-Arctic..
“We are doing our best,” th -v
say, "to keep these reports from
our white settlers, Indians and
Eskimos. We don’t want our pa
tients in th» hospital, our chil
dren in the schools, to get win! I
of -it."
Grafton Burke. physician in
Tharge of the Stuck Memorial Hos
pital, is specific in the urgency of
his anxiety. “What are we to
do?” he asks in a letter address

executive secretary of the "Every

has been organized with Charles

In the, midst of their anxxiety
a, measure of hope will,, jt is ex
pected, fortify these Workers to
continue their ministrations that
cover virtually the entire vast re
gion of the Yukon. Thus far, the
Everyman’s Offering campaign has
taken root in 52 dioceses of the
church. Every efTort is being put
forth by the National Campaign
Committee, of which President
Roosevelt is the most distinguish
ed member, to meet the situation.
The goal is $500,000, to* be oh- j
tained, they, hope, by the support
of 500,000 laymen they are en
rolling day by day.
That this new group of men,
awakened to thp broad social serv
ice being given by the church, will
prove in itself one of the greatest
permanent assets of the campaign,
is ^he conviction of the leaders.
Meanwhile they are sending such
assurance as events seem to justi
fy that the 40-year-old fight car
ried on by Bishop Rowe, wiih dog
sled, motor boat and airplane, .to
carry a message of practical serv
ice embodied in the spirit of Chris
