Washington—A department of commerce report released shows that the Increase in the number of first admission to state hospitals in North Carolina between 1922 and 1927 was relatively greater than the growth in the state’s population during the same period. Of the first admissions in North Carolina during 1927, 743 were males and 630 were females. Those present on January 1, 1928, includ ed 2,248 males and 2.651 females. The three hospitals in North Carolina, the report discloses, had a total of 1,373 first admissions dur ing 1927, compared with 1,162 in 1926 and 851 in 1922. These first admissions represent patients received during the year who had not previously been under treatment in any hospital for men tal disease. Such newly admitted patients, the report says, afford the best available measure of the num ber of new cases of mental disease which are brought under hospital treatment during a given year. "The increase in the number of first admissions to state hospitals in North Carolina between 1922 and 1927,” the report shows, "was rela tively greater than the growth in the state's population during the same period, as shown by the fact that the first admissions in 1927 numbered 47.4 per 100,000 of popu lation as compared with 40.7 in 1926 and 31.9 in 1922. "The extent to which provision has been made for state treatment of mental patients is indicated by the number of patients present in the state hospitals on a given date. In North Carolina, the number of mental patients under treatment in the state hospitals has increased steadily from 2,489 on January 1, 1910, to 4,899 on January 1, 1928; and the ration of such patients per 100,000 of general population in creased from 112.8 on January 1, 1910, to 167.8 on January 1, 1928. "These reports are based on re lorts furnished by the institutions, through the cooperation of the State Board of Charities and Public Wel fare.
