A. {Borland, prominent local physi- |cian who was there at the time tand returned he early this {week. Both he and Mrs. Borland |were flu victims, | “There wasn't a pill or a pow- ‘der of any kind in the village 'available for use. There was a competent nurse, employed . by the Federal Government, but she | was virtually helpless because she 'had no medical suppli with which to render needed assist- lance,” he declared. | Dr. Borland placed the respon- sibility squarely on the U. S. Bureau of Education which, und- er the Interior Department, is charged with the administration of relief of sick ‘Indians in the ,Territory. He asserted that the nurse's requisitions for medicines ,went almost unnoticed—that an order sent in sometime Dbefore the influenza epidemic occurred for medical necessities to be used in such instances brought her 24 Dover's powder pills, ‘three or four dozen aspirin tablets amd two packages of cotton . gauze; that this was the total of the medical supplies sent to the vil- lage since last June, or there- abouts. Hoonah has about 450 inhabi- tants. Practically all of them were influenza wictims. . When the epidemic was at its height, a U. S. Forest Service boat made a special trip to Jumeau and took out a supply of medicines. Later the Coast Guard cutter Unalga made a trip there with a Public Health Service physician, Dr. Borland said whén he left this week all medicines were exhausted. The' mnurse, a Mrs. Hastings, was still werking 16 to 18 hours a day but was vir- tually exhausted from excessive work.

FRIENDLY SAYS GERMANLEADER | BERLIN, Dec. 28— foreign miniscer, Dr. S finds that nowhere has G foreign policy of peaceful struction and conciliatory ation mist with so much apnrecis ition as in the United Staics. In a preface to a record ¢f the country's political developments | i during the last decade published under ‘the title of “Zehn Jahre|! Deutsche Geschichte” (Ten Year: of Geérman History), Dr, Strese mann Writes: ¢ “As ‘America is destined to play || la signiflcant fore in ‘the political | | ‘developments of the near future, the rapprochement between Ger-| many and America in such & com- paratively short time musi be con- sidered .one of the most gratifying vesults of Germany's foreign pol- ey, auguring well for our future. May this tend to bring the convic. tion to the German people that de-| spite all reverses and chocks th‘|r goals have been well chosen and' help to give us strength to pursua! them with all the means at our saying she was very capable and anxious to care for the sick in her charge.
