The Prince Edward Island Hospital, together with the Char. iottetown Hospital and Prince County Hospital, have been stress- ing this responsibility for a long time.

Walter ‘Jones announced that 0t- tawn was favourably considering the proposal to erect wings to each of the three hospitals .Sissce then, however, no definite word has been received. ,

Further delay in starting con- struction, P.E.I. Hospital author- ities believe, would be most un- wise. Hon. Mo. MscKonsie is now in England, and the date of his re- turn fs not known. He was inter- viewed on tho subject before his departure, and seemed favorably impressed.

Version 0f Broadcast Not Clear

(By The Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO. July 27—’I'he Tokyo domestic radio tonight trim- med down Domei Agency's earlier semi-official rejection of the Allied ultimatum to surrender.

It agreed that Japan would ig- nore the ultimatum, but where Domei said Japan would fight “to the bitter clld." the domestic radio said merely that the hard-pressed cmplro would “adopt a policy to strive toward completion of tile greater East Asia war in conform- ity to the hitherto established basic principles."

Whether this version meant the same thing in Japanese minds or whether it left the door open for later acceptance of the Allied SUI"L render- offer was not, clear, but the I milder tone appeared to suggiaétl u e

hem.

The broadcast added that Prem- ier Suzukl tomorrow would broad- cast to Japan, "expressing determ-

This trouble may provide one of the first tests of Prime Minister Attlees policies toward liberated Europe. It. also brings to the sub- iect. of Britain's relations with Russia in the eastern areas where the Soviet Union has created a sphere of control.

Tile Greeks contend that certain Albanian territory belongs in Greece because it has some Greok inhabitants. Similarly they have been wrangling with Yugoslavia and Bulgaria.
