VAN CAMP DENIES .. USING INFLUENGE Declares He Had No Part in Prompt- ing Request for Supt. Rogers’ i Resignation. | “HEARD OF IT THROUGH BEE” “I don't know where Superinten- dent Rogers of the County hospital ever got the idea that 1 was influ- encing County Commissioner Henry McDonald to ask for the ‘superin- tendent’s resignation,” said County Physician Dr. Lee Van Camp, fol- lowing the exclusive publication in Tuesday’s Bee of the fact that Mc- Donald” had requested Rogers' res- ignation, “No man lives who can tell McDon- ald what to do. McDonald has a mind ot his own, and as for me, I didn't even know the resignation had been asked for until The Bee told me.” .J Mr. Rogers said yesterday he ~ ‘ms heard nothing further from Com- [oagaimissioner McDonald. “I' wrote him Bl:sking for an explanation,” said he, “and he should have received the ter last night. I shoul. have a reply soon. talked to several of the other county commissioners and they said they knew nothing of the affair until The Bee published the matter,” Stirs Up Much Comment The flurry in the County hospital situation is naturally stirring up com- ment. Dr. G. A. Young, member of the insanity board, said: “Since Mr Rogers has been in charge of the County hospital that institution has been managed better. than at any time that I know of. He has been on the jou all the time, and one could always find him.” District Clerk Smith, also a mem- be{ of . the insanity board, said: ‘ “You may quote me as strong as ¢ you like that Rogers' management ) st the County hospital has: been ( good. In my experience as county L ~uditor and| later on .he insanity commission, I never knew things to be in better shape out there than they have been under Superintendent Rogers. There are, of course, a lot P of improvements and accommoda- tions needed out -there for the in- sane, and in other departments, but, considering the facilities he has had to Kvork with, Mr. Rogers has done well.” Commissioner John C. Lynch had not heard of the demanded resigna- tion until he had read of it. “But,” he added, “if McConald asked for highresignation. that's "all there is to. it Commissioner McDonald declares the matter will come up formally be- fore the board next Monday, “At that time,” said Mr. McDonald, “facts will be developed that will get the support of the remainder of the board.” HIGHER PRICES THE RULE ON THE LOCAI RRAIN MARKET|: It was a pretty fair grain market|" in Omaha and everything showed an advance.
