P. Kramer that extravagance in building and main-tenance hav characterised th operating of th institution. Dr. Holmes Is Chairman of the General Hospital Building Commission, and, as ha access to all accounts add record kept at the Institution, gives official data in support of his contention that "In- craaaed cost of food, clothing, fuel and labor 1 responsible for an Incrcaa In th cost of maintenance In 1910, as com. Pared with that in 1918.

Ing th alleged assertion that TB per cent of all inmates of th hospital ar thr a tha result of drink, aaylng insults large number of respectable men, wom en and children who ar patients because of misfortune not of their own making nor inn oi tneir parents." Dr. Holmes's statement follows: Taking it for granted that th press has correctly reported the statements mad by Dr. Simon P.

Kramer, la a lecture at th Ninth Street Baptist Church laat Monday concerning the coet of operating the City Iloepltal, I deair to giv th fact, for the public I Interested in them.

Dr. Kramr ha mad mistake of almost half million for 1915 and (411.150 for 1111. Th Tuberculosis Hospital, located at Lick Run. outald of th city limit, la conducted as a separata Institution, but under the supervision of the Super intendent of th General Hospital.

This alone would account for the year 111 of an Increase In cost of maintenance ef 110S.3J1 Naturally the cost of maintaining this perfectly equipped and conducted ho pltal cannot be compared with th cost of th much smaller old ramshackle Institution on Twelfth street, with in sufficient number of attendant and nurses and lack of fscilltles of every kind.
