Peking Union Medical College Plant To Be Finished By 1921
Friday's Daily reports from Associated Press that the Peking Union Medical College plant, funded by the China Medical Board of the Rockefeller Foundation, is expected to be completed by January 1, 1921. Three teaching buildings were in use by October 1919, with a full complex planned including laboratories, a 250 bed hospital, out patient dept, hospital admin unit, nurses' home, utilities, and faculty housing. Vincent notes the board aids Western medicine in China and emphasizes higher standards and efficient service. The 1919 year saw appropriations to 19 missionary hospitals and a December 1919 policy shift to concentrate on a few strategically located hospitals. He cites limited anti tuberculosis activity outside France, with French transfer of dispensary personnel and public health nursing. War era Red Cross hospital facilities for tuberculosis have been extended by municipalities. France plans to build or direct patient care within five years under central and departmental funding.
