tlon with the Robert Long: and City j fa' Hosptial groups belongs to the,'
state ofj Indiana." said Governor Warren T. McCray at the- public showing cf the plana for the hospital at noon today at a meeting in the Riley Room In the Claypool Hotel. Indianapolis. More than 500
prominent Indiana citizens from every part of the state were presentThe address of the occasion was made by James J. Davis, secre
tary of labor, who grew to manhood
in Indiana, and who was a close
personal friend of the Hoosler-poet.
Secretary Daria was introduced "by
Governor McCray. Honor g-uests at
the luncheon included Meredith Nicholson, Booth Tarkington and
Georgre -Ade.
According to Governor McCray,
the children's hopsital is direly
reeded in Indiana. Thousands of
Indiana boys and girls are- growing
to maturity with club feet, mis
shapen limbs, bone pressure on the brain or other afflictions that modern science could easily adjust if
there were a hospital where they
could go for the necessary one to
six months for medical attention.
Mr. McCray pointed out that the
last state legislature recognized
this r.eed for a children's hosptial by appropriating $123,0001 for the
first section which is to be built this fall, and pledging the main
tenance of the hospital. It was an
nounced to Hugh McK. Landon of Indianapolis, president of the Jameg
Whitcomb Riley Memorial Associa
tion that $2,000,000 wilt be needed to erect the hospital and the c-on-valesence home, according to the
plans which the hospital executive
committee has been working on for
the last six months.
Dr. William Rowe Bryan, presi
dent of the Indiana University, averred that the state is in reality giving the hospital an endowment of $3,000,000, in that it has provideo for $75,000 a year for the first two years and $50,000 a year continu
ously thereafter to take care of tho
general expense of the hospital. In addition, the state legislature has
provided that all the cost of maintenance above the appropriation of
50,000 or $75,000 will be. paid by
the counties of the state in propor
tion to the children sent to the hospital by the various counties. Mr. I'ryan said that this support would figure in the total as 5 per cent on an invested capital of $5,000,000. MODELED AFTER IOWA LAW The law under which the hospital will be established is modeled after the law of the State of Iowat under which a highly satisfactory children's hospital was put in operation a few years ago. This institution
according to Governor Warren T. McCray, who has Inspected it per
sonally and who also has in his possession a report of a committee of which Dr. William Row Bryan of Indiana "University was chairman, is regarded as one of the model children's hospitals of the country. The Indiana statute takes great benefit from the practical experiences which have become apparent tinder the operation of the Iowa
