Beds Encourage Workers, To Keep Cows, Goals MOSCOW (AP)- Soviet work ers are being encouraged tq ac quire and maintain cows, goats, and other livestock as an additipn al source of cheap food. ' "Ogonek" reported recently that at the large Urals " Machinery Works in Sverdlovsk alone work ers and employees now have pyer 1500 large horned cattle and golsts and are receiving 7000 metric cent ners (one centner equals r 220 pounds) of milk yearly. They have set up two livestock cooperative societies in addition. ' " I 7 T W On Rising Operation Expenses The problem of keeping North Carolina hospital ledgers free of ret) ink i" the face of a continuing rue in the cost of operation is be coming more and more difficult, Miss unrigtme vick, administrator, (f tbe Morebesd pity hospital, re vealed today in a statement re leased by the North Carolina Hos pital association and supported by a study of 132 general hospitals in the Carolines assisted bv the Trustees of the Duke Endowment. fat stuay covers an eleven-year period, ending with 1947. During this period the average per patient per day cost, including newborn, increased from $3.56 in 1037 to $7.06 in 1947, a rise of $4. 4Q during the eleven years. But in tbe same period the averags daily hospital collections from paying patients increased only $3 -Utf-rirom .ub in 137 to $a.ll in 194. This is made more meaningful by a glance at what has happened to the amount in excess of cost which was paid by full pay pa tients. Back in 1937 the, Carolinas hos pitals collected per day an average of $1.49 in excess of cost from the average full pay patient, but in 1947 this excess amounted to only 15 cents, a 90 per cent decrease. What has caused this situation? It's essentially the same thing that has happened to the average house hold budget higher prices for everything the hospital buys and increased salaries to everyone the hospital employs. The costs are continuing upward.

In 1937 salaries consumed 38.2 per cent of the daily per capita cost. By 1947 the salary cost per patient per day had reached 48.1 per cent. Only 1.2 employees were needed in 1937 for each patient hospital ized but in 1947. 1.5 employees per patient were needed. This in crease in ratio has been brought about by the trend to shorter work ing hours and shorter working week. In 1937 the patient's daily raw food cost was 81 cents. This had increased to $1.63 in 1947, an in crease of 100 per cent. The per patient nursing cost ir. 1937 was 59 cents oer day, but in 1947 it had reached $2.36, which is an increase of 300 per cent. One mav wonder how the hos pitals continue to operate since practically none of them has any source of income other than that collected for patient care. The answer may be found in part in other transitions within this i .i,i i eleven Jfcat iuu. In 1937 the hospitals were do nating 29.3 per cent of the cost of free hospitalization, but in 1947 they were donating onlv 3.6 per cent, indicating that the state and local government units have as sumed the major share of free hos pitalization, but in 1947 they were donating only 3.6 per cent, indi cating that the state and local gov ernment units have assumed the major share of free hospitalization. The thing the hospitals were forced to do back in 1937, and continuing SUIT YOU SHOP largely through 1942, Vas to charge enough : from those able to pay-their hospital bills in order to be able to absorb cost of free hospitalization of the indigents and other wards of the state. Hospital administrators point out that "free hospitalization" is a myth. Somebody has to pay for it; and if the state or some other agency doesn't, then tbe hospitals must obtain the money for charity patients from those patients who do meet their bills. Indicative perhaps of the times is the trend in the ratio of charity service during this eleven-yeai period. In 1937 it amounted to 43.5 per cent of all services ren dered bv Carolinas hospitals, from which time it steadily decreased to a low of 13.7 per cent in 1946. It had risen to 14.8 per cent in 1947 and indications are that it will be higher in 1948. Despite the vastly increased per patient costs, the demand for hos pital beds has increased tremen See HOSPITAL Page 7 Ask for it by name.. ..A GRAPETTE, jdeeue FOE pays for itseli in HIGHER VALUE and gives you ..V greater Comfort "Safety Performance 0 USE OUR EASY TERMS MAILER YOUR toftm Moto?
