The Department of Health for the Province of Prince Edward Island has arranged with the co- operation of the Department of Na-

duct a five day refresher course for cooks and food personnel to be held at the Chronic Care Centre in Summ side. It will begin next Tuesday and last through Satur- day. Between so-25 cooks from

They will instruct in such mat- ters as food service. menu plan- ning, food purchasing. food stor- age, work planning food prepar- ation and sanitation.

The De artment of National Health an Welfare has offered

lnces of Canada and the local De- partment was one of the first to accept the offer. The course in all its aspects will be adjusted to meet the local needs.

It is hoped that as a result of their having taken the course, cooks will go back to their respect- ive institutions better equip to serve more nutritious me s and at the same time work more ef- ficiently and economically.

Dr. Morton said the epidemic seems to be dwindling and "it is under control, I think." He said the number of cases has drop- ped ofi since last weekend.

Since June 1 the hospital has admitted 87 children suffering from pneumonia. and an un- known number were treated at home. Visiting privileges at the hospital were cancelled last week when the epidemic broke out.

Auto Industry Not Worried By Steel

DETROIT. (AP)-The auto in- dustry is not greatly worried about a possible suspension of steel making; with production cuts it has been getting more steel than it needs.

As a result of lowered car out- put the auto makers' steel in- ventories are regarded as ade- quate to permit completion of the 1956 model run and provide a

start of 1957 models.

In an address last evening to the Board of the King's County Memorial Hospital, M.L. Bonnell. Minister of Health. announced the

uction of a Laboratory Ser- es Plan whereby essentially all of the laboratory tests and pro- eedures supplied by the Division of Laboratories of his Department. will be made available to the people of the Province without dir- ect cost as of July 1st.

Dr. Bonnell went on to outline that at the present time. when a patient is admitted to one of the general Hospitals. The ordinary tests required are carried out by the hospital laboratory. However, in the majority of cases. more

A Ive investigations than can be provided in the local hospital by the laboratory technician-are usually necessary. These more ex- tensive investigations, Dr. Bonnell stated, include such tests as exam- ination of tissue for the presence of cancer. culture of material for bacteria and the more complex biochemical tests.

Two years ago the Provincial Government established a Lab- oratory Council which consisted of representatives of the general hospitals and members of the pro-

vincial staff. The Council at that time set a standard schedule of charges for all procedures canted out in hospital laboratories. They also made available to the patient. at cost. the services oi the De- partment's Laboratories.

In his announcement last eve- ning Dr. Bonnell stated that these more technical and expensive tests, not ordinarily carried out in hospital, laboratories, and Wlllcll have been provided by the Div- ision of Laboratories at cost. will he provided free to patients in all hospitals after July 1st.

Dr. Bonnell also stated that after the lat of July all doctors in the Province would have available to them the services of the Division of Laboratories for the investiga- tion of patients in their office prac- tice. These services would include tests not ordinarily carried out in an office examination.

The services would be provided without cost to the patient. The total cost of this Laboratory Ser- vice Plan is being financed by the Provincial Government with the

was the prevention of disease, and the main function of the hos- pital was the curing of disease; but during the past twenty-five years, medical science has pro- gressed so rapidly that the hos- pitals and the Health Department have had to expand with it, and, thus. they are no longer two sep- arate unlts as far as prevention and treatment of disease is con- cerned.

"Today. more than ever before, "he said," we have to work to- gether; and at lllls time I would like to say that the co-operation that the Health Department re- ceives from this Hospital, and all hospitals in the Province. is one hundred per cent. I do not know of one instance where our hos- pitals have not co-operated to the fullest possible extent tor the bet- terment of, the health of our people.

"Today our hospitals are very active in the prevention of discs- es, by such measures as routine blood testing for venereal dis- ease, by our tuberculosis clinics, by reporting all contagious dis- eases to the Division oi Vital

Statistics. by co-operating with our public health nurses when they visit new mothers and new- born babies, and in many other ways; while at the same time the Department of Health is get- ting more and more into the field of curative medicine.

"Today the Department of Health takes complete control of the treatment of tuberculosis, mental diseases and poliomyelitis, and in some Provinces, such as Newfoundland, it operates most oi the hospitals in the Province; whereas in this Province the bos- piials are run independent of Government, except for a per diem grant of one dollar per pat- ient per day."

A few of the expansion pro- grams in relation to hospitals. that have taken place since he became Minister of Health were then outlined by Dr. Bonnell.
