TUESDAY, APRIL 30 DaILY EDITION TO SAVE THE SICK AND SAFEGUARD THE SOUND. Last night the Council had again before them the matter of Prince Rupert's need for a properly built and equipped isolation hospital for the accommodation of patients smitten with communicable In with this ‘subject Alderman Clayton made remark which, if sound knowledge of the fact, amounts to a very serious charge against itself, the whole community Prince City complaints. connection a based on the Couneil and indeed Gi Rupert, The Alderman said that he had good reason to understand that the young man whose funeral took place today died of acute pneumonia following a case of ordinary measles which might possibly have been brought on by the want of & proper isolation hospital. ‘The patient, he said, was placed in the temporary framed tent structure run up last summer on the general hos- pital greunds. This structure, as Alderman Clayton explained, diflicult to the for properly managed sick room.

In the case in point, whether owing to the shack hospital a —- or from soine other cause peculiar to the patient, a young man of twenty-three has died, and the fact that it should even only be hinted that the flimsy hospital with doubts should be enough to make the whole City Council deter- mine instantly to have a building put up. And yet last night even in the face of Alderman Clayton's very dis- strueture regarded substantial isolation pointed hint there follows only the usual conversational cussion about sites recommended by the Medical Health Officer. Nothing definite is done, and the inference is that until funds are forthcoming nothing detfinile can be done. Always, whenever it has been discussed, the matter of expense has brought the Council up to a sluggish stop. Now while they still delay one man has died.

It has never yet appeared that an elaborate isola- tion hospital was immediately necessary, and this may account to some extent for the inaction of the Council. But the fact that there are few cases of zymotic disease in Prince Rupert! is no reason why those few cases should be victimized by ac commodation in a crazy shack with a tent roof, under which it is impossible to maintain the proper sick room temperature.
