EFFORT TO HAVE MARINE HOSPI
TAL HERE.
Mayor lehrman said Saturday that
he will make a determined effort
while in Washington to have the Ma
rine Hospital remove to the Naval
Reservation in Algiers. lie will dis
cuss the matter with Surgeon Gen
eral Rupert Blue. who was in New
Orleans recently inspecting the of
fices under his jurisdiction in this lo
cality.
The Marine hospital is located near
the new cotton warehouse and is near
the center of hea y traffic, which has
been constantly increasing with the
drift of trade in that direction. After
the warehouse is running on full time
there will be enormous business ac
tivity in that se( tion.
A federal law provides penalties for
the blowing of whistles or making of
loud sounds near a United States hos
pital. This law, according to the may
or. would be violated near the present
hospital. On this ground he will try
to have the institution removed to the
reservation.
