Our grievances are many, but it is my intention at this time in refer to only one, and that is regarding grants to hospitals, in the case of the Western Hospital at Alberton. If we were not given a flat refusal then we were cer-' iainlry given what is commonly known as "the brush-off," in re- gard to wlnt we think is their just share of the money that has been so generously given to all otlfer hospitals. There is a great number of people here whom this Western to in son, in particular; just why this innitution cannot qualify for the grant, especially at this time when ail...tbe Liberal candidates are boasting about what their Liberal idovernment has done for the health and welfare of all the poo- . plL p - i I complete answer to this ques- Zl.ion would be very much appre- ciated, I think, by all the people Int West Prince County. .
