Calvin D. Van Name, Borough President of Richmond, created a sensation at to-day’s meeting of the Board of Estimate when he charged that ‘no one ever recovers from lung tuberculosis in that hospital,” mean- ing Sea View Hospital, a city owned and mannged institution on Staten Island which has cost millions to establish. Mr. Van Name’a attack was brought about by a report of the Finance and Budget Committee recommending the denial of the re- quest of the Commissioner of Public Charities for $360 for two bronze tablets on the new dining hall and group buildings, Thee tables were intended to replace others containing names of former city officials and to supplant them with the names of present officials, “I sincerely hope the Board of Esti- mate will not put the names of the Mayor and other officials on a tablet in Sea View Hospital,” said President | Van Name, “Sooner or later there will be an awful revelation regarding deaths from lung tuberculosis in that hospital. No one suffering from lung tuberculosis improves there and no one suffering from that disease can improve in that atmosphere. No one ever recovers from lung tuberculosis ‘in Sea View Hospital,” “I don't think that statement B. Altman & Gn.

UNDAY WORLD WANTS WORK WONDERS should be permited to pass without some explanation,” interjected Bor- ough President Connolly of Queens. “It may be true and again it may not be completely true. It may be that patients who are beyond recovery died there, in which event Mr, Van Name's statement is true, I think 4 proper explanation should be made so that the impression would not go forth that all patients taken to Sea View Hospital die there.

It is the first city institution to which they are sent from the five boroughs afer he firs diagnosis. After their arrival at Sea View patients are studied and further examined and the very hopeful cases are sent to Otis- ville and other sanitariums. Severe cases are kept at the Staten Island institution, For that reason, as ex- plained by Aldermanic President Rob- ert L. Moran after today’s meeting, the perecntage of deaths at Sea View is very high, To a great extent the cases kept there are regarded as very grave. 9 een Child Killed “Hitching On” Auto William Potter, five years old, of No, 137 Linden Street, Brooklyn, was killed this morning while hitching on the trailer of an automobile operated by, Frederick ‘Rosenblock, 22, of ‘No. TEASE AYER IAN Send for PEASE PIANO COMPANY 128 West 42d Street, 84 Flatbush Ave., Brsokiry 67 Halsey St., Newark, N.
