He urged that pressure be brought to Bear on the provincial government to get it to increase its subsidy. The government Grant of 40 cents per bed per Day for Public Ward patients might be enough for Small hospitals but it was inadequate for a Hospital As Large As the general the mayor contended. Aid. M.
