The move has been found nec
essary by th e hospitals because
of tfie large n um ber of unpaid

income and expense which is b e
ing caused by the rising o p e ra t

Deposits on m edical cases will
be £¿5.00, on obstetrical cases
$35.00; and on surgery cases, $50.
L ugar pointed out the fact that
the A shland in stitution had e x
trem ely high operating costs be
cause of the tw o floors w hich re

cause of the services rendered
such as the 24-hour nursing care,
p lan n ed m eals, three tim es daily,
laundry, housekeeping, janitoi
service and incidentals. All these
costs have risen during recent
years and the high percentage of
unpaid bills has added to the
cost.
L ugar stated that a determ ined
