"The : Idea originated with Mrs. Clarissa Smith. Mr. Esteb's mother, who had lost three of her children as a result of the disease. At the time of the gift there was much agitation for a hospital for this county. The farm was given without any strings attached. While the farm was given for the tumose of building a hospital

any time in the future, the need of a hospital was not apparent, the county would have the farm to dispose of as It saw fit. "I hope to see steps taken toward

If the necessity for a large hospital i3 never presented, then there is no harm done. Hospital Necessity Proved "It seems to me that the necessity for a hospital has been proved by the testimony of Wayne county physicians and of tuberculosis - experts. One Richmond physician has told me that if this county bad had a hospital he could have placed four patients. An

other said he had three who would

have been placed in the hospital

592 patients were examined. A total

of 286 were found to have tuberculosis and of these, over 50 percent, or 174, were never before so diagnosed. Of the total number, 155 had active tuberculosis, 100 inactive tuberculosis, 61 were suspicious and 43 had tuberculosis glands. Only 17 of the 592 patients were apparently normal." Would Raise Food. With the farm of 240 acres adjoining the proposed site of Wayne county's hospital, tuberculosis authorities have estimated that Wayne county will be able to raise all of the food needed by the patients, and thereby cut down a large proportion of the

overneaa expenses. j

Estimates by experts give tne cost 01

building the hospital at $1,500 per bed. This would make a 25-bed hospital cost $37,500, or a 50-bed hospital cost $75,000. Commissioners Meet M on Jay. The county commissioners will meet Monday morning about 10 o'clock, according to Denver Harlan, county attorney, and one of the matters to be considered by the commissioners will be the question of what to do in regard to the proposed hospital. Mr. Harlan said that the commissioners will first dispose of claims against the county, and it is possible they will get to the hospital question

so that they may be given the proper care, rather than be left to die without aid. It was with this purpose in mind that the farm was given, and later, the offer of $50,000 in government bonds, providing the county made an appropriation of a like amount With $100,000 and this site, it looked to me that at least a small modern hospital could be started." Expected Buildings When the $50,000 bond offer was made the county by Mr. and Mrs. Es-

teb. it was with the understanding At hat a substantial hospital building be erected by the close of this present year. Up to the present time no tart has been made upon such a structure, and the $50,000 appropriation made by the county to match that of the Esteb offer has never been made available. Following the appropriation of $50,000 by the county council, it was expected that the tax duplicates for this

sear would include that amount

OPPOSITION BY

(Continued from Page One.) States senators who are identified with the party in power. Ohio has only one Republican senator, Willis. The favor shown to Brown by the president is further emphasized when it is recalled that Brown was a candidate against Willis for the Republican senatorial nomination. Brown has a well established record as an organizer. He has been busily engaged for several months on a plan for the reorganization of the executive

departments and, it is expected, he will make his report shortly. It is anticipated that his report will recommend the reduction of the departments from ten to nine by the consolidation of the departments of war and of navy

but I into a department of national defense,

resign, namely Secretary of Treasury

Mellon and Secretary of the Navy

Denby. Rumor has it that General

Dawes, now director of the budget,

would become the secretary of nation

al defense, the department created by

the proposed consolidation of the war and the navy departments, and Secretary of War Weeks would become

secretary of the treasury.

Cloakroom gossip is to the effect

that Mr. Mellon, who has hitherto had

a cloistered existence, has found that

he does not fit into public life comfort

ably and that he would rejoice in an opportunity to retire from the cabinet.

He has not been particularly success

ful in his relations with congress. Practically none of his tax suggestions have been written into the pending revenue bill and his plan for refunding the foreign debt has been

vigorously opposed on the ground that it would vest too much authority in the secretary of the treasury. Denby in Bad. Secretary Denby, it has been said.

is out of favor at the White House but will continue in the cabinet until the merging of his department into the department of national defense has been accomplished. Denby has gotten in bad, it is rumored, because his department has made no attempt to carry out a retrenchment program. President Harding has been constantly demanding a radical curtailment of

expenditurese in each of the depart

ments, and his demands have been complied with except in the case of

the navy department.

Attention has been caned to tne

fact that the navy department's estimates for the next fiscal year called for an appropriation of $409,000,000, which is $9,000,000 more than the ap

propriation congress authorized for the present fiscal year. The estimates of each the other departments meet the president's requirement of at last a 15 percent reduction over current appropriations, and Secretary of War Weeks ha3 been the most active in cutting down expenses. Director of the Budget Dawes has returned to Secretary Denby the navy department's estimates for the ensuing fiscal year as unacceptable. Dawes would be without authority in taking such action, it is said, without the approval of the president. "

LARGE FAIR CROWD AT EATON DESPITE COOL WAVE ARRIVAL

SEVASTOPOL TO ELECT COMMUNITY OFFICERS Forming of a community association will feature the program of the community center gathering to be held by the citizens of Fairview, Friday night in the Sevastopol school house. At this meeting the officers and the council of the Fairview Community association will be elected by the citi

zens. Several speeches will be made at the meeting by prominent persons of Richmond.

A musical program will be given by the Fairview orchestra. Community singing will be enjoyed. Games of various kinds also will be played. "The formation of this association will mark the beginning of the possibilities in the use of the public schools by the adults of the community as well as for the children," stated P. H. Slocura, of the Richmond Community Service.

EATON, O., Sept. 30. A large number of Preble county citizens attended the last day of the Preble county fair in spite of the cool wave which arrived Thursday night. Clear skies with bright sunshine combined to tem

per the cool breezes so that Friday s attendance was by no means as small as was predicted early in the morning.

All exhibits were required to be left on the grounds until 4 o'clock in the afternoon so that all who attended were able to see as much as earlier patrons had, without the uncomfortable crowding of Thursday. On that day the people were packed so densely into the halls at times, that it was almost impossible to view the displays properly. Charles Gilford, of Fountain City, Wayne county, Indiana, was a large prize winner in the horse department of the fair Thursday, taking two firsts and two seconds in Peicheron horses, having also taken first on coach horse and first on general purpose horse on Wednesday.

now be made available it will be necessaty for the appropriation to be made again next year if the council wishes to proceed with the building of a hospital, because the appropriation passed by the council last year was not included in the taxes and is automatically nullified at the end of this ypar.

Benefits derived from the operation of a hospital for those afflicted with tuberculosis is pointed to by Mr. Esteb, who had a copy of the annual report submitted by the superintendent of Sunny-side tuberculosis hospital, of Marion county, Ind., early this month. In part, the report states: "Fifty-two ex-patients of Sunnyside hospital, the Marion county institution for tuberculosis afflicted, out of the 113 patients discharged showing improvement in health during 1920, are able to earn at least $52,000 a year, or
