IM Change In
I 13 Feed Program
Major Change Is In
| crease In Top Limit
On Diversion
The TJ. S. Department of Ag
i /rioulture has announced the
/ major provisions of the 1964
i voluntary feed grain program.
The program will be .basically
the same as the 1963 program.
The major change is an in
crease in the top limit on di
version from a farm’s base acre
age with an increase in thewrate
of payment for maximum diver
sion. This change is intended to
encourage producers
additional feed grain acreage
and to increase their
1964 a producer may divert as
much as 50 per cent of his feed
grain base acreage (in 1963 it
was 40 per cent), and those who
divert from 40 to 50 per cent
will receive diversion payments
t at the maximum rate fqr all
acres diverted. As before, the
maximum acreage diversion will
be 25 acres if this Is mofe than
50 per cent of the base.
. The J 964 feed grain program
" assures cooperating corn pro
ducers of price support at $1.25
per bushel (national average)
compared with an estimated 80
cents which could haVe - been
expected if new feed grain leg
| islation had not been enacted by
the Congress last spring. Wheat
prices can also be expected to
stay above the estimated 85-90
cents a bushel that would have
been likely without an effective
feed grain program. However,
Department officials pointed out,
even the improved program for
feed grains with its cushioning
. effect on wheat prices will not
prevent a drop in wheat income.
Hospital Costs
Still Climbing

Dr. Fuller
•* The chairman j
of the board of
one of North
Carolina’s larg
. est hospitals j
,r * North Carolina I
Baptist at Wins
ton-Salem —says
hospital costs
will continue to I
climb for tne
next several years, but that the
patient now is getting more care
for his money than ever before
in history.
Dr. Fleming Fuller, writing in
the August issue of .Trustee,' a
magazine published by the Am
erican Hospital Association,
points out that although today’s
patient pays more per day, he
gets well quicker, goes home
earlier, returns to his job soon
er and usually lives longer than
did his forebears.
Dr. Fuller analyzes results of
j a study bn hospital costs and
services made in three Winston-
Salem institutions covering the
decade of 1950-1960 and uses
these figures to support his ar
gument that, after alfc hospital
charges are relative when bal
anced against a patient’s eam
' ings, productivity, and loss of
time from work. The hospital
♦ trustee, he says, is in the unen
viable position of being “con
stantly questioned about the ris
ing costs of hospital care” wher
ever he happens to be—“in his
j office, at a public gathering, at
a social affair and sometimes
even at church."
As trustees, he goes on, “we
are expected to have the
answers. * Although we may
know the-reasons sof 1 these in
creases and are certain that the
hospital patient is receivihg ex
cellent vaiue for. his money,
many of us find it difficult, if
not impossible, to convey . these
facts adequately to -our ques
tioners, who simply cannot un
derstand why their hospital bills
are higher than they were a few
years ago.’;
In the period theicost
to the patiqrrt 9br a da*' care
at City Memorial Hospital m
Winston-Salem went fsqfcjjti.B9
to $20.85; at Baptist IBWUI
from $12.10 to fc?2.95'. At'JCate
