Portland will have a contagion aospltal. to be constructed immediate ly, even if the city officials are re quired to conduct a "drive" for funds to pay the cost of carrying- the proj ect to success. This was determined at a special meeting of the city coun cil yesterday after Mayor Baker had made It clear that to continue with the present facilities would be no less than criminal action on the part of the city commissioners. Before making any plans to ask Che public for subscriptions in con section with a "contagion hospital drive." the city council will endeavor to work out some plan to raise the anoney necessary, estimated at 150,000. The first move in this direction will be the offering of the property on whtch the old fire station stands on Fourth street, near Yamhill, for sale a 975.000. This property was ap praised by a committee of the realty board at 185.000. and it is believed that the asking price can be received. If the property cannot be sold for at cash consideration in the neighbor hood of the asking price, tbe city council will endeavor to check on the budget and cancel sufficient appro priations to raise the money. It is hoped by the council that this will k needless, because the low mint of the treasury now makes it almost bviou that this plan will be neces sary to provide funds for the conduct f crry affairs during the last half I the fiscal year. "Drive" Last Resort. IT an other plans fail, Mayor Baker announced that the publio will' be asked to donate the necessary funds. This plea will be on the basis of health protection, and It is believed by city officials that the drive will prove successful. Mrs. Ellen Tout, who for more than SO years haa been superintendent of tbe smallpox cottage operated by the city, will be placed on a pension of $40 for the remainder of her lifetime, according1 to decision reached by the council yesterday. Mrs. Tout's posi tion will be filled -by a trained nurse to be selected oy City Health Of ficer Parrleh. Mrs. Tout Is 73 years old, and much . of the criticism of conditions at the hospital, made against her, reflects on the council for failure to retire her last year when City Health Of ficer Parrish so recommended in a letter sent to City Commissioner Mann. Immediate Action TJnced. Members of the city council yester day Insisted that they favored the Immediate construction of the hos pital If funds could be provided. City Commissioner Pier, however, made the observation that agitation before the council for more than two years past in favor of a contagion hos pital had not been heeded and- hence he favored a final decision at this time. Mayor Baker said that makeshift method had been employed by the city too long in handling of smallpox and other contagious diseases, and that he would not be willing to vote in favor of any project which would not be a permanent proposition. He appointed Commissioners Pier and Bigelow and City Attorney LaRoche as a committee to delve into the fi nancial phase of the question, to re port to the council within a week. The public works department is carrying on the work of excavating the basement for the proposed con tagion hospital near the Kelly Butte rock pile, but little progress has been made during the past two months. The failure to make faster progress. Commissioner Barbur explained, was due to the difficulty in operating machinery on the site, because of the location. lean Mackenxie, Mias Hewett and the hostess.
