TUBERCULAR PATIENTS

The ALASKA NATIVE BRO
THERHOOD has long been work
ing on the problem of federal
care for the tubercular patients
of southeastern Alaska. Thru
the help of Delegate Sutherland
and others, notably the Klawock
Camp of t„A. M. B. in which
Frank Peratrovich has been the
moving spirit at work on this
problem, success seems to be
near at hand.
We have just received a copy
of a letter written by Secretary
of the Interior Ray Lyman Wil
bur to the Hon. Dan Sutherland
which reads in part as follows:
“The subject of the admission
of tubercular natives of Alaska
to the Cushman Hospital, Ta
coma, Washington, has received
consideration by tli? Indian Ser
vice and the Bureau of Educa
tion.
The Indian Service finds that
it can arrange to receive at the
Cushman Hospital a limited
number of Alaskan patients and
the Bureau of Education will re
serve from its appropriation for
‘A Man can make no better Investment than a Good Suit of Clothes’
