Foreign Funds Will Meet Most of Cost

Chungking, Mar. 5.

Arrangements for the establishment of a "Peace Hospital" in Southern Shansi Province are nearing completion, according to Chinese reports received here today. The premises of a former foreign missionary hospital will be used.

The proposal for such an establishment, designed to take care of wounded Chinese soldiers and refugees, was made recently by the Interpational Anti-Aggression League. The monthly budget of the hospital, it is estimated, will total £686.

Although the Chinese Red Cross donate to the cause, a large part Of the expenses will be met by foreign' contributions.—Reuter.
