T. B. ASSOCIATION
GRANTS $400 TO
ANCHORAGE OFFICE
The tuberculosis committee of the
Anchorage Health and Welfare
Council will receive a grant of $400
from the funds of the central office
to supplement its budget for the
rest of the fiscal year, following ac
tion taken by the executive com
mittee of the Alaska Tuberculosis
Association last evening.
This grant was recommended by
Mrs. Frances L. Paul, executive
secretary of the association, to en
able the Anchorage committee to
assist in setting up a treatment cen
ter for tuberculosis in that city.
There are usually a number of
beds in sanatoria occupied by pa
tients who are being treated by
special means. If these treatments
were available in their home towns
such patients could be entrusted to
the care of their local centers and
the beds in the sanatoria released
for new cases. Very few general hos
pitals care to offer such services<
and none has been available in An
chorage, officials stated.
A co-operative plan has been un
dertaken between the City of An
chorage, the Alaska Department of
Health and the Tuberculosis Com
mittee to set up such a center, they
said. The contribution required
from the Tuberculosis Committee
may run as high as $1800, which
would cut deeply into its funds for
l other services rendered the com
munity. The Alaska Tuberculosis
Association has therefore agreed to
supplement their budget in order
that this center may be established.
A financial report of the Alaska
Tuberculosis Association was given
at the meeting, showing expenditures
of $12,727.12 for the first five
months of the fiscal year and a bal
ance of $14,629.63 in the bank.
Mrs. M. O. Johnson, president of
the Association, and committee
members Dr. Clayton Polley, John
Maurstad, J. B. Burford, Mesdames
Ruth Dunlap. Kate Smith, Chris
Wyller and Earle Hunter Jr., attend
ed the meeting.
