COMMUNITY

HOSPITALS

Mordialloc and

Chelsea

Plans for the establishment of Com

munity hospitals at Chelsea and Mordialloc are being considered by committees of re- sidents and councillors.

At Mordiallic the question was discussed by the carnival committee at a special meeting last night. A request was made

that the committee should assist the es-

tablishment of a hospital by contributing from future carnivals. The committe approved of the project in principle, but it was pointed out that before the contri-butions could be made the constitution of the committee would have to be amended.

The plans at Chelsea have been deferred following a report that at least £1 000 would be necessary before a community hospital could be established. A sugge-

tion has been made that if the Mordialloc hospital were established it could serve Chelsea and surrounding district.
