Raymond ,and the Chame hospital is an out {standing example of how she |Good Neighbor nrule is applied lamong people who care little about international diplomacy, but who need no pointers on becom iing friends. : Interne Gains Fame This starts in July, 1943, when i(‘.apt. Raymond, then 28, fresh out of Yale and halfway through his internship in Bellevue Hospital, New York, was assigned as flight 'surgeon at Chame, one of the score of flying bases set up by the 'Sixth Air Force in Panama to protect the Panama Canal. | A Panamanian woman., brought lher husband, who was badly in Ineed of medical attention, to the |base dispensary. The man, sq,f-{ {fering from an ' abdominal ail (ment, was treated by Capt. Ray-l Imond. ’ g | That started it. l . Soon, the captain’s fame and ‘kindness had spread from Chame to remote settlements in the mountains. Villagers came to the ibase, and when they couldn’t, the captain went to them. | Oranges Pay the Bill ' A man, with 13 knife slashes in his body, was carried through the jungle in a hammock for two days until he reached Chame. He had a terrific gash on one side which had been stitched by his wife with thread made from bark. Capt. Raymond gave him plasma, dressed the wounds and sent him, by army ambulance, o Santo Tomas Hospital, sixty miles away, in Panama City. A few weeks later, the same man was back. This time he had walked two days through the jungle 10 bring his benefactor a heavy sack of oranges. ] One night the captain was sum moned’ to Chame. A young Pana manian was dying of pneumontia. The captain found him stretched out on the earthen {loor of his na tive “bohio,” gasping for air. A tank of oxygen and a flying mask were brought. The patient needed sulfa, but there was no intravenous equip ment. As soon as he had rallied sufficiently under the OXygn treatment, a rubber tube was forced down his throat and mash-~ ed sulfa tablets were fed to him. Whern the captain left at daybre}x‘k, the crisis was past, ‘ Writing on the Wali Then came the peak of the war time rubber shortage. Army ve hicles in Chame, with the excep tion-of one ambulance and one truck, were ordered off the roads. The townspeople came to the realization that when the war ended and the base was aban doned, they would be without quick, dependable medical serv ice. They turned to Captain Ray ‘mond, who, with the support of the older people, offered a plan Ador a community hospital. I Despite the local skeptics, the I«work was started. Ground was ?brok'en‘. It was hard. often dis \ couraging work, but Army per ’srnnel“ cam% to the rescue many :\} time. Residents of three neigh boring towns who knew they | would be benefitted by the hos-l | pital, pitched in. | One year after the community | effort started, tne foundations !and the wzll of the hospital have | been raised. Nine thousand tiles | have been collected for the roof. ;Flfty thousand more are needed l-—-the' Chame people are confident | they will be found. ! | If and when completed, the‘ hospital will: accommodate 32{ adult patients and 16 children. It - will provide maternity service;l “will have. an - out-patient clinic] ‘andwm provide quarters for onel “doctor and several nurses. In the United . States, the pre-war cost of a similar hospital would be around $35,000, including $15,000 for equipment. In Chame, its cost so far has been heartbreaks and despair and a lot of persistent effort. ! Given Hero’s Welcome Three months ago, Captain Raymond was transferred from Chame to the Sixth Air Force headquarters at Albrook Field, but he drops around to visit old friends and to see how the work is progressing. There was a fare well party in his honor--and the guests were 75 men and women whose lives have been saved by the Army doctor. A feature of the program was the song, “Let Me Call You Sweetheart,” carefully jearned by a small Panamanian girl. “That was one of many testi monials Captain Raymond has received from - his patients. But one of the 'most touching is a note, written by a gir} whom the Army . doctor treated for a bullet wound in the right hand. The note was enclosed in a hand embroidered lace handkerchief for Mrs. Raymond, the {ormer Virginia McDonald =of Paducah, Ky. (present address: 124 East 7grd Street, N. Y. C)). It said: “For Mrs. Dector Raymond, made with the hand that he healed.” IState Begins Climb To iLe.vel With Nation’s Most Progressive ‘ {(Contiaued From ¥age Omne) ‘grant for the needy aged, the 'blind and dependent children from i approximately sll to sls. | “To méet understaffed and un (der equipped conditions at wel {fare and penal institutions, sl,- 1500,000° was added. | The '52,000,000 building . fund ,was expected to finance a decade long program of building to house ‘th_e increased attendance at the institdtions of higher learning.

Another member of the com. mission, Tomag Confesor; chief Philippine delegate ' said one of the most ticklish problemg fac ing the Allies in Japan was the cuestion of what to do about the Emperor.
