Collins Blames Delegation For Cullen Change
Delegate Charles E. Collins accuses Frederick and Western Maryland lawmakers of fear in backing a plan to convert Victor Cullen Hospital into a delinquent training site. He says Sen Derr refused to block the bill despite votes, while Health Department faced a threat to close Cullen and lose future funding. The measure moves tubercular patients to other hospitals and repurposes Cullen for a delinquent boys training school, with Collins as the sole county dissenter.
