WE ARE (NOT JEALOUS.
The Kefledtor lbin&^ luai we
are opposed lo Pitt county vot
ing bonds (or a County Hospital
because wc are jealous of Green
ville. Wc* are frank to admit
that in the event the county
builds a hospital, Greenville is
the proper place to locate it.
We would like to see a mod
ern hospital at Greeeville, but
we are opposed to bonding Pill
county to build it. We note the
Refledor Sates that it will only
increase the taxes three and one
half cents, on the hundred dol
lars;, but how about maintaining
this hospital after is built?
Is auyone in position to know
tbat it will be self-sustaining?
Are the farmers and tax payers
of Pitt, county demanding that
the county build a hospital? Will
the farmers throughout Pitt
county be benefitted to the ex
tent of being willing to be mort
gaged to pay for- it?
Sfc>me one has said that this
hospital will be a great saving to
the farmers of Pitt county, and
the citizens of Greenville. We
would like to know 'what per
cent of the farmers will be bene
fitted by such an institution? Is
iLnot true that the farmers living
in various sections of Pitt county
can be taken to good hospitals
elsewhere about as quick as they
could be taken to Greenville?
How long does it take the citi
zens and farmers, of Ayden,
Bethel, Grfmesland, Grifton.
Fountain and Farmville to reach
> a hospital when necessary? How
much moTe does it.coft to go to
the hospitals in other cities,
already built and equipped (not
by taxation) but by private capi
tal, than it would to gc to a
County Hospital at Greenville?
When we sum the whole situa
tion upr j 'v. ill find that the citi
zens and Winers of Pitt county*
