PAGE TWO THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN. FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 10, 1920 - CENTER TO BE OPENED Jffl. 1 Organization For Founding Free Clinic Is Formed And Committees Named; To Be Thoroughly Mod ern and Complete With the opening of the Maricopa County Health Center on January 2, 1931, the first free clinic In the state f Arizona will be started. At a meet ing held Tuesday evening In the rooms of the, Arizona Anti-Tuberculosis asso ciation, 300 East Adams street, a reso lution was passed to appoint commit tees to take the necessary steps im mediately for the opening of the clinic on January 2. This clinic is to be modern, up-to-date and complete in every detail for the treatment of all kinds of diseases and will be free to those who are financially unable to provide themselves with medical at tendance. The movement for a free clinic has been under way for some time and Dr. George E. Goodrich, state super intendent of public health, was ap nolntcd as temporary acting chair man, to appoint a committee to get together and perfect the organization. Dr. Goodrich selected nineteen citizens who met Tuesday evening and organ ized as the Maricopa County Health Center. The following officers were elected t mem for a year: Dean William Scarlett, chairman; Mrs. D wight B. Heard, first" vice-chairman r Dr. John Dennett, Jr., second vice-chairman; Mrs. Henry BaswiU, secretary; W. C. Foster, treasurer. Resolutions then were adopted by the newly organized clinic to take active steps to open the clinic at once, and tor the appoint ment by the officers, of six commit tees to carry out the work. These committees will be appointed in a few days. Committees Named The first committee will obtain the affiliation of existing organizations now doing social service work which should co-ordinate with that of the clinic. Committee No. 2 will select a housing for the clinic. Committee No. 3 will select the clinic staff of physi cians. Committee NoJ 4 will select the clinic superintendent or head nurse. Committee No. 6 will secure the finances, and Committee No. will have charge of furnishing the clinic. The first committee will be the board of directors of the clinic and will be composed of representatives of all the organizations in the city which are now duir public 'health or sac al ser vice wori.. Anions the .ites proposed for the clinic, iind the one that seems best suited for its work at present, are the rooms of the Arizona Atni-Tubercu- I losM association nt .100 East Adams I street. It is probable that for the fiist year of the clinic this site will be chosen for the location of the clinic. The primary purpose of the Mari copa County Health Center is the maintenance of free clinic work in all its branches and the direction of proper education in hygiene and sani tation. The class of patients to be treated and cared for at the clinic will be those who are financially unable to provide themselves with their own physician. To Have Schedule of Work A schedule will be laid out and each branch of the work will be taken care of on a certain day during the week and at a set hour. It is planned to have some clinic work going on at every hour of the day. The clinic will have a staff of visiting nurses in at tendance at the clinic at the time the patient is treated, who will then do follow-up work on the case by visiting the home of the patient. These nurs es also will do social service work. The proceeds derived from the sale of the Red Cross Christmas seals and health bonds will be devoted in part ho the maintenance of the free clinic which will include a clinic for the treatment of tuberculosis. ' The free clinic is one of the rsults of the pub lic health survey which was conducted Jointly last summer by the Arizona state hoard of health and the Arizona Anti-Tuberculosis association under the' direction of T. C. Cuvellier, execu tive secretary. The meeting held Tuesday night was called to order by Dean William Scar lett, acting chairman, and was attend ed by the following: Mrs. Thomas E".

T. Sutherland, night captain of the police AD H GROWERS Following a dispatch of a telegram from the Arizona American-Egyptian Cotton Growers' association to Arizona representatives In congress, word was j received here yesterday that the con gressional delegation will stand solidly behind the cotton growers and theit associations in their attempt to have congress revive the war finance cor poration and the extending of federal this season." reserve loans to farmers during a pe riod of 12 months. The answer which came from Senator Ashurst in reply to the association's wire follows: "In my judgment the arbitrary and unjust action of Secretary Houston of tho treasury department should be checked by congress, and you are as sured of my constant support in every way that will assist you and those for whom you speak." Telegrams similar in tenor to the foregoing have been received also from others of the Arizona delegation The telegram of the association which brought out these replies is as follows "Tho situation of the cotton growers and wool and cattle men of Arizona is absolutely distressing. Farmers and their organizations have seemuigly done everything possible in co-operating and in the use of limited credit to pick their cotton. Most of them can hold on for a while. "We recommend that congress by a mandatory resolution compel Secretary Houston to revive the war finance cor poration he arbitrarily killed. We rec ommend that federal reserve loans to farmers be extended for a period of 12 months; that property now held in Washington and belonging to Germany and her citizens be made the basis of additional credits to-that country; that the artificial deflation policy which has caused a depreciation in farm products of seven billion dollars be abruptly checked, and that business conditions be allowed to adjust them selves1 In a normal way. "This association represents more than half the cotton produced In Ari zona this year, and feels that financial relief of the cotton producing industry through congressional enactment Is all that can save the Industry great loss department, fjr a judgment. The suits were filed on behalf of the Chinese by Joseph E. Morrison, former United States district attorney. The three suits are similar in na ture. The Chinese allege the defend ants with force and armt and without probable cause or authority to do so, imprisoned and detained them in their night clothes in the chilly night air for one hour for which they ask $2500 each Ak a second cause of action the Chi nese allege that about 11 o'clock at night, while they slept, the defendants without warning, summons or demand, and without authority or search war rant or other legal process, broke open the rear doors of their places of busi ness on South First street or Madison street and after violently ejecting them, searched their places. For this they ask $2500 each. The Chinese allege that the defend ants threaten to search their places again when they desire, and they ask that a permanent order be issued by the court enjoining the defendants from breaking into their places with out a warrant of law. Ye- Don Wah gives his place of business as 203 South First street; Ong Chuey Sin, as 113 East Madison street, and Ong Wing Lung as the corner of Madison and First streets. According to the .defendants, the raid was made with the proper search war rants provided in each case. The of ficers claim that in no case was a door broken open until the proper demand was made upon the Chinese to open tho door, and sufficient time given for the door to be opened. The raid, they say, was conducted in search of some contraband opium which was expected to arrive In Thoenix about Thanks giving time. No trace of the narcotic was discovered, although the officers found one aged Chinese with an opium pipe, which was confiscated. o 39c Cocoa Almond Soap 2 for 15c Comet Fancy Head Rice . 1- lb. pkg He 2- lb. pkg 1...21c 130 N.

GIVE THAT A CHILD MAY LIVE ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS SOCIETY HAD BUSY HHiVEB The Maricona County Anti-Tuber culosia Society has completed a busy month, during which 103 families were under supervision of the public neaitn nurses in its employ, according to Miss Etelka Weiss, the nurse in charge. Of this number 26 families were referred to the nurses in No vember. Twelve of the 26 families came to the society's attention be cause of tuberculosis, the others be cause of sick babies, open wounds and other causes. During the month the nurses made 216 visits, giving nursing care, instructions in hygiene and pro phylaxis, home nursing and social service. The value of public health nurses has been acknowledged long since, not only because they enable sick persons in all classes of life to obtain skilled care and supervision, but because they have an essential part in the educa tional and preventative campaigns being carried on in all modern com munities. The nurses employed by the Marico pa Anti-Tuberculosis Society may be reached every day except Saturday and Sunday, between 1 and 3 p. m., at room 516, Heard building, telephone 1758. Anyone who has knowledge of sick persons who are not getting the proper medical care may refer them to the nurses, who will call at the earliest time possible. Many people already know this and have taken ad vantage of the opportunity, thereby bringing help and comiort to many pitiful patients who, through their poverty or ignorance in matters of ill ness and nursing, were endangering their own lives and in some cases the lives of their families and neighbors. Tubercular parents, pre-disposed children, expectant mothers, the baby with whom "nothing agrees," whole families withV'colds," and the "neigh bor 'who Is careless and expectorates anywhere,'' are some of the many problems referred to the nurses. In one instance a father of five children, suffering from open second stage pul monary tuberculosis,' refused to be lieve in germs at all. "Can you imag ine the chances of the children, all under 14?'" remarked a nurse in speaking of the case. In another instance, a father in the last stages of tuberculosis refused to leave his family. Fortunately, he was persuaded to believe in germs, and the children may be saved, though they are already infected, as the man had been ill several yours before ho re ceived any instructions in hygiene. "Other instances could be cited, but the goal after all is the same in j every case: To save lives and health, ; and with the help of the people who ! arc a hie we will keep on saving them J on an increasingly large scale," said j Mi.ss Weiss icsterday. 1 BUY RED CROSS SEALS Phone 4391 Established 1862 BUY RED CROSS SEALS Wonderland is indeed theexpression to use.
