that Philadelphia will lose Its supremacy
as a great medical centre of this country"

rent loan for neressnry Improvements to
tho Philadelphia General Hospital. Phy-
slclans prominent In medical circles do
plore the nntlqunted facilities available

like Institutions In other cities which art
striving for tho enviable position Jong lielit
by Philadelphia will forgo ahead and at
tain that honor unless the buildings and,
equipment at Blockley are greatly aug
mented and renovated.
In nn effort to prevent this city front
losing Its notable wsltlon in the medical
world members or the Philadelphia Gen
crnl Hospital staff have teliewrd their
efforts to have tho munleipnl authorities)

sum nothing more than tho deplorabln
system of making smull, Inadequato ad

could be accomplished. Thus, after ex
penditures along thoae lines liavo been
made, th.- Institution would still remain
;m oid and Imperfect one without a sin
