Architects Drawings of New Salem General Hospital
Above is a front view of the hospital as it will appear when
all three units are completed. The first unit will be the tower
(center) and the southwest maternity wing shown at left of
top picture. Below, at left is an enlarged view of the tower
and the front entrance. Below, at right, are shown the three
wings of the ultimately complete hospital. The northerly
wing behind the tower will be the second unit built. It
will contain surgery and technical rooms.
New Hospital
(Continued from Page 1)
The second and third floors
of the first unit will have ac
commodations for 50 mothers
and babies. The maternity sec
tion of the present hospital ac
commodates 28 mothers, but
when changed to general use it
will add only 10 or 15 beds, be
cause of the present overcrowd
ing.
Four nurseries will be Includ
ed in the new maternity sec
tion, making it possible to seg
regate the babies in small groups
as a protection against illness,
Also there will be two small
nurseries for babies suspected
of having infections. A waiting
room detached from the public
lobby is included in plans for
this department.
The basement of the wing will
have meeting rooms.
This unit will be three stories
high and will form the south
west wing of the hospital when
all wings are completed. . Next,
as funds are available, will come
the north wing with surgery,
supply quarters, laboratory, x
ray rooms, etc., all on the main
floor. This wing is planned for
four floors, with hospital beds
on second, third and fourth
floors, and its cost is estimated
at $800,000. Finally will be the
southeast wing with administra
tion offices and treatment wards,
estimated to cost about $520,000.
210 Beds in 3 Wings
The three wings, when the
hospital is finally completed
will total 210 beds. It would
still be possible to add two more
wings and bring the total num
ber of beds to 300, and bringing
the total cost to about $3,000,
000. ,
The central tower, also a part
of the first unit, will have three
floors and basement. It will
contain the hospital lobby and
entrances for four elevators.
The present hospital will con
tinue in service and would offer
some 90 beds for the aged, for
chronic cases, isolated cases and
perhaps pedriatric and physio
therapy cases The old building
is an 80-oed hospital, but oper
ates usually on an emergency
lzo-bed basis because of lack
of space.
For the new first unit the
present heating and power plants
will be adequate, Chairman
meyers rjeneves. it will save
about $200,000 in construction
costs. The heating plant has
been in use since the building
was erected in 1921. The 95
kilowatt power plant is operat
ed by gasoline and was acquir
ed by bequest and is available
for emergency esrvice.

U.S. Threatens
(Continued from Pane 1)
'In these circumstances the
United States government will
be obliged to withdraw the
United States diplomatic mission
from Bulgaria and ask for the
recall of the Bulgarian diploma
tic mission from the United
States."
Those threatened actions of
the American government would
constitute a break of diplomatic
relations.
The Bulgarian note of Jan. 19
was the demand for Heath's re
call. It was handed to the state
department late yesterday by Dr.
Voutov, the Bulgarian charge
d affaires here.
Bulgaria and the U.S. have
been at odds since the Sofia gov
ernment sprang up behind the
Iron Curtain in early postwar
days. The U.S. has backed sev
eral charges in the United Na
tions that Bulgaria gave haven
and support to guerrilla forces
warring against Greece.
The United States and Britain
have charged that Bulgaria, Ro
mania and Hungary have violat
ed their peace treaty guarantees
of fundamental human rights.
Serious Flood
(Continued from Page 1
Streets downtown were get
ting pretty well cleared of the
slushy snow Friday, but out in
residential sections there con
tinues a good covering of the
snow.
Intermittent rain and contin
ued mild temperatures are fore
cast for tonight and Saturday in
the Salem area, the low not ex
pected to go below 35 degrees
tonight.
Now Above Freezing
Friday morning's minimum
was 33, the first time since Jan
uary 10 that the mercury had
been above freezing, 33 also be
ing recorded that day.
Rainfall is far above normal
here for the month to date, 8.36
inches being recorded so far in
January against a normal of
3.36 inches at this time. More
than three-quarters of an inch
came down in the 24-hour per
iod ending at 10:30 a.m. Friday,
.78 of an inch being measured.
The seasonal fall to date here
measures 23.35 inches, compared
to a normal of 20.66 inches (the
weather year beginning Septem
ber 1).
Salem and the valley regions
were faring much better in the
weather situation Friday than
Portland and other northwestern
Oregon areas.
Traffic Conditions Bad
Portland Friday still reported
traffic conditions bad and many
power and communication lines
down following the thaw. Thurs
day. There also were conflicting
weather conditions, part of the
city thawing out into a slushy
mess while other areas affected
by the Columbia gorge wind and
cold were still battling ice and
frozen rain.
First serious flooding also
was reported from the north
western part of the state, the
Kilchis river flooding over U.S.
highway 101.
Farther north, in Washington,
there was more concern about
Dossible floods as the ica and
snow started melting.
Capital Journal. Salem, Ore.,
Architects for
School Named
The slate has authorized Wolff
& Phillips, Fourth Avenue Pear
son building, Portland, to pro
ceed with plans on the construc
tion of a new school building at
the state blind school here, Roy
Mills, secretary of the Oregon
state board of control, i
nounccd.
The authorization followed a
joint meeting of the state board
and the state emergency board
at which the group was advised
by Fire Chief William Roble, Sa
iem, that the present building
had been condemned as a fire
hazard.
The group has authorized an
appropriation of $300,000 for the
project.
Wolff & Phillips had previous
ly been commissioned to do plans
on the project, and when the
emergency measure arose the
firm was authorized to resume
work on the project.
No definite plans have been
made for the type of building,
though it is believed it will be
a one-story school building with
an auditorium of fireproof con
struction.
Details of planning will de
pend on further conferences be
tween the architects and officials
at the school.
Snow Trac Used
To Free Aulos
Stuck at the curb!
That was the fate of many a
motorist who nosed in at Sa
lem curbs Thursday and had no
chains.
Those parking on the east
side of Liberty street between
Slate and Court streets how
ever, fared better than many
others. They got a helping hand
from Ray Bergman, who was
equipped with snow-tracs.
Bergman, clearing the side
walk in front of Fred Meyers,
where he is employed, on no
ticing the plight of a number
of cars brought out a pair of
snow-tracs.
When wheels would begin to
spin, the motor race and the
car still not move from the
curb, away would go Bergman,
who for his own protection was
wearing a pair of hip boots. He
would place a snow-trac be
hind each back wheel and soon
have the car out.
Iron Lung
(Continued from Papre 1)
The mechanical breathing was
slow and deliberate. When the
machine inhaled, I could feel
a terrific rush of air sucking
through the cylinder, seeming to
squeeze me tighter and tighter
inside the huge steel tube. Still,
I barely felt any air going into
my lungs.
Then, slowly but with force,
the machine would exhale. It
felt like a dynamite charge was
going off inside me. The rush of
air out of the machine created
a vacuum which gave a sensa
tion of my blood veins bursting
open and my head collapsing
like a punctured balloon.
Over and over. Inhale, exhale.
The machine would seem to
scoop in huge masses of air, but
my lungs felt as if I was breath
ing through a fine straw.
I seemed to be exhaling a doz
en times as much air as I'd in-
hele. It seemed as if I was get
ting a short breath in, a long
breath out, a short breath in, a
long breath out, etc., etc.
I thanked God that I was
spending minutes instead of
months inside that iron lung.
It was far from comfortable,
believe me. It was actually
somewhat painful It was tough.
Back in my high school days,
I frequently participated in the
mile, run, considered the most
grueling event of any track
meet. While in the navy, I was
a member of a rowing team,
a position which probably re
quires more stamina of breath
than any other form of athletics.
But never in my life did my
lungs undergo as much punish
ment as they did in that half
hour in the iron lung yesterday
The iron lung is a wonderful
machine. It has saved hundreds
of lives. It is truly a credit to
science. But to me. since yester
day the most wonderful thing
about any iron lung is the cour
age of the polio victim who lives
inside it.
A person with that much
courage certainly deserves our
support . . . and every little bit
we contribute is another step in
the March of Dimes.
