GERTRUDE WETZEL TELLS OF PLANS FOR HOSPITAL ! ON NEW SITE AT NOME | Miss Gertrude Wetzel, Hospital Administrator, Territorfal Health Department, spoke to the Woman’s Society of the Methodist Church jat their regular monthly meeting City East 36 March—Air- cloudiness: this, March—Airport, +last night, telling them some of the plans for the new Methodist hos- pital at Nomeé. The Maynard Col- uhmus Hospital, which has served Nome since 1923, burned recently and Miss Wetzel had just returned from that city working out plans with the community for rebuilding. A new site has been selected that will permit modern conven- iences. It probably was, one of the few hospitals without modern plumbing because of the perma- frost in the old location. Harold Foss of this city has been authorized to work out arch- itectural plans for the hospital, funds for which will be raised through the national Woman's So- ciety of Christian. Service of the Methodist Church, from citizens of Nome, and use of Federal funds available for the construction of hcspitals in the Territory. — More than $113 million dollars | worth of gold bars were sold by the U. S. Mint in 1946 for in- dustrial purposes. SERVICE Dewey W. Motaseet Get the NEW Vice-Pres. WASHINGTON and Managing Habit!
