Columbia Negroes Demand Proper Hospital Facilities
OPENING OF NEW
HOSPITAL GETS
PROTESTS OF
400 PEOPLE
COLUMBIA. ,S C. Dec. 22-
<ANP)—Delivering an ultimatum:
to the county hospital board, a;
mass meeting of 400 colored citi-1
zens at Allen university Sunday. I
expressed themselves as “unalter-!
ably opposed" to the plans for the^
erection of a proposed Negro hos-1
pita! here, requesting the hospital!
board to take no further steps in -
the matter insofar as the colored
population was concerned, if it was
planned to erect the hospital under
the conditions which the board had
prescribed. The meeting went on
record as being opposed to the
erection of the hospital as an an
nex upon the grounds of and con
nected with the present white in
stitution; as being opposed to the
location which was near a group of
railroad tracks: demanded that a
real hospital should be established
looking forward to a program of
exnansion for the next 25 years;
pointed out that provisions should
be given for the training of colored
nurses, the same as are now pro
vided for white and that the insti
tution should be operated by color
ed people, with Negro physician.;
having free and unrestricted acccs
to its facilities. Under the plan a
proposed by the board this would'
not be possible.
A few years ago Richmond coun
ty in which Columbia is located,
passed a bond issue of 5300.000 to'
provide hospital facilities for the
two races. Colored votes were
sought to pass the measure upon
the promise that adequate facili
ties would be provided for colored
people. It frequently happens that
Negroes exercise the privilege of
voting on bond issues in southern!
communities even where they do
not vote in general elections The
colored voters supported tE:e bond
issue.
The announcement made by the
Richmond county board cf their
proposed plan to establish the hos-
