Merchants back dam project
Endorsement of the Cape Fear
New Hope flood control dam as
proposed by the Army Corps of
'• Engineers has been formally giv
en by the Board of Directors of
the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Mcr
Plan for aged
is announced
through HSA
A proposed plan to enroll the
nation’s over-65 population in
(Blue -Cross—-with the federal
government assisting in paying
the premium if necessary—was
announced today by Hospital Sav
ing Association, the Blue Cross
and Blue Shield Plan of North
Carolina.
The program, introduced by
the American Hospital Associa
tion and the national Blue Cross
Association, would provide * a
comprehensive scope of benefits
for aged persons. The program
would be under private control
and is the 'Blue- Cross answer
to the Administration’s program
to put health care for the aged
under Social Security.
There are over 300,000 persons
in North Carolina above the age
of 65, making up 6.7 per cent of
the population, but this same
age group represents about 11
per cent of all general hospital
patients. The number of persons
over age 65 in North Carolina is
.increasing three times as fast
as the total population.
^ If the Blue Cross proposal
were adopted, Hospital Saving
Association would expect -to join
with other Blue Cross Plans to
put the nationwide program into
effect. Hospital Saving’s pre
payment programs have always
"Included eontiffuous protection
for its subscribers after they
reach 65.
-For persons who had no pro
chants Association.
The proposal was presented t»
the group by C. Whid Powell,
local realtor who has been Chap
el Hill representative to the Cape
Fear Development Association
for several years. After outlining
details of the project and what
he felt would be local advantages
as a result of its* construction,
Mr. Powell said that the local
endorsement had been requested
by Dr. Henry Jordan for the
Cape Fear group. The idea was
unanimously endorsed.
The directors also approved a
budget of $29,700 for 1962. It
will be presented to the member
ship' at the Association’s rnstat-1
latlon banquet for hew ^officers;
later this month.
At that time the membership j
will be given a proposal to in- ]
^glude a trade promotions fund in
the general membership dues.
The new year’s budget as pro
posed is substantially the same
program as was carried on last
year. Though the budget then ■
was $21,900, about $29,000 was
taken in and spent as a result
of increased income and expen
ditures in the Association’s cred
it Bureau.
