Edgecumbe Hospital to patients from Sitka. In saying no, Hugh Wade, new ANS director pointed out that such permission would take an act of Congress, and further, that the ANS could not feel justi- fied in asking for such action while, at the same time, plead: for more appropriations for the erec- tion of added TB hospitals for the fight inst TB among the natives In respense to questions concern- (ing the need for new school facil- ities, T.
