Two of the nurses who are corning, are
sisters and another one is Dr. Hoehn's
sister. A man anesthetist is also coming.
The hospital is at present staffed with
cook and maid.
Dr. Hoehn is one of three doctors prac
tising in Alaska who has a D.N.B. degree.
He was born on a farm at Canora, Saskatch
ewan, Canada. It was a government Exper
imental Farm. He lived there until he
was 16 years old and then began working
his way thru college. Ho received his
medical training at the College of Medical
Evangelists in Los Angeles. It is one of
the largest Grade-A medical schools in the:
State8.
From college he went to the Long Beach
(Cal.) Community hospital. Later he was j
with the Santa Fe Railroad hospital in
Los Angeles. He came to Alaska in 1938.
Ho has prr.cticed in Fairbanks over since.
Dr. Hoehn and his wife, Dr. Andrews,
had the same medical training. They
were married in 1937 on the evening they
were graduated from medical school at
Lona Linda, Cal.
Dr. Hoehn saysi "We expect and we in
tend to give our very best in skill and
in experience to the people of this com
munity and certainly to those who may
come to us at the Ifetanuska Valley hospi
tal.
APPEAL TO CONSERVE TIRES
This is an appeal to all Alaskans to
join in the nation wide program of conser
ving tires. Last Wednesday evening at a
aeeting of the local ’.7ar Price and Ration
ing board, there wore applications for 13
tubes and 11 tires. Their quota on hand
lumbers 4 tubes and 7 tires.
The figures of the national "./PB show
three facts*(1) He cannot spare any rubber
to make new tires for ordinary passenger
:ars; and the tires we do have must be
strictly rationed to essential uses.
r2) whatever synthetic rubber is produced
aust go to the war effort, (3) The most
optimistic estimate for this year end next
Indicates no rubber at all for anything
out the most essential usages.
After months of rigid rationing the peo
ple of jilaska in general seen not to real
ize that the rubber shortageis actually
Jesporate. Liore - when the rubber from
these cars is gone and autos have been
shelved because there are no tiros, it will
put a severe burden on busses and taxis.
Needless driving today is unpatriotic.
Deliberate waste of rubber helps tho enemy,
fou do not want to help the enemy. Than
gtop all but the most essential driving,
ai*Alaskans are called upon, even implored,
to ration use of their cars strictly.
