The result is scarcely scintillating or surprising, but provides acceptable entertainment...
...onetime Under-Secretary of the Treasury Arthur Atwood Ballantine recommended that trustees of at least New York City hospitals form a hospital council and cooperate instead of working at cross-purposes as they often do. And such a hospital council, the most conciliating, effective hospitaler of the megalopolis, President David Hunter McAlpin Pyle of the United Hospital Fund, last week was all ready to organize...
