DR. F. J. PHILLIPS RETURNS
FROM TRIP EAST
Dr. Francis J. Phillips, medical director at Seward Sanatorium, is probably the best ambassador that Alaska has. He spoke briefly at the Chamber of Commerce meeting Tuesday of his 9000-mile trip to New York and Washington.
Dr. Phillips attended 53 hours of seminars and institutes on the work of rehabilitation of handicapped people and tuberculosis victims.
Among institutions he visited were the Howard Rusk Center for Rehabilitation in New York, the Woodrow Wilson Vocational Rehabilitation School in Virginia, and he stopped over in Chicago to represent ACCA, and took a three-day course in San Francisco. Altogether he was very busy, and still found time to give five talks on Alaska. Dr. Phillips is deeply interested in a rehabilitation center in Seward in connection with Sanatorium patients.
