AUSTIN ONE OF PHYSICIANS PETITIONING COITNTY SUPERVISORS FOB 87.900 APPROPRIATION FOR I.AB MONDAY The urgent need for the es- tablishment of a county laboratory was explained to the Franklin county board of supervisors Mon- day by a delegation consisting of Dr. Daisy Van Dyk« and Dr. John E. White of Malone, and Dr. K M. Austin of Tupper Lake. An appropriation of $7,900 was requested, the plan as presented having Malone as the location of the main laboratory with branches at Saranac Lake and Tupper Lal(e. It is understood that the state matches any appropriation mad* by the county dollar for dollar. Dr. Van Dyke said that the Alice Hyde hospital had been In- spected by state health authorities, and that rooms in that institution measured up to the requirements | for a county laboratory. State AM Promised She Informed the solons that if the county made the requested ap- propriation the state would supply a similar sum and In addition would equip the three laboratories at an estimated cost of $2,600 each. Dr. Van Dyke explained that the appropriation asked for and granted last year had proved suf- ficient to engage a qualified laboratory director. Dr. Austin, who told the super- visors that he had a special in- terest in the visit to the cham- bers 'because he had been super- visor of the Town of Altamont from 1900 to 1911, strongly quj/ ported Dr. Van Dyke In present- ing the laboratory proposal lo the board, saying that the bene- fits In the saving of lives and health could never be estimated In dollars and cents. Many Case* Cited Dr. White alBo urged the super- visors to consider the matter favorably, pointing out specific caaea to Illustrate the need for this service.
