(UPI Teiephoto) Sacred Heart Hospital Hospital Closure Decision Followed Long, Careful Study (Continued from page 1) No staff member will be thrown out of work immedi ately because of the impend ing closure, Sister Luke em phasized. "This decision, to eventual ly close Sacred Heart hospital, was a difficult one," she said. We did it only after long and careful study. We also: think this is the only solution for the good of the commun ity." New Wing Planned The new wing at Rogue Val ley, to house some 65 beds, will be constructed if and when federal Hill - Burton funds become available. The bulk of the non-federal funds already have been pledged to the project by the donor who contributed the largest single amount for the construction of Rogue Valley hospital Sacred Heart was built by St. Vincent hopsital in Port land. Except for the recent drive, no public funds have ever been solicited or receiv ed, Sister Luke said. Only gifts have consisted of yearly donations of equipment, Caring for Aged Lifelong Process Washington-CScience Serv- ice)-01d people must be pro tected from the three D's disease, disability and depend ency. And prevention of these ills does not begin at 65; it is a lifelong process, Dr. Claire F. Ryder of the divi sion of special health services, Department of Health, Educa tion and Welfare, told del egates at the Nation Recrea tion Congress meeting here. How the older person will utilize the increasing amounts of leisure time at his disposal, Dr. Ryder said, will depend on his own and his family's attitudes, the community's at titudes, his preparation for re tirement, his own basic re sources, his financial and liv ing conditions ana ms pnysic a condition. Proper use of leisure time is a Dreventive to neip lore- stall the onset of dependency. And recreation can be a bridge between the young and the old. The hospital administrator listed several additional fac tors which entered into the decision. They included a shorter patient stay in the hos pital, a large influx of doctors who are specialists, growth of clinics, and high baa debt ex perience. Paiiel Slay , Sister Luke explained that the average patient stay In nospitais now Is six days for adults and 5V4 days for chil dren. It used to be an average of 10 days. Fifty-nine per cent of Jack son county's doctors are spec ialists. They perform many o tne comparatively minor op erations in their offices which used to be performed in hos pitals. More clinics means less use of hospital laboratory and x-ray facilities. Modem drugs nave also cut the stay of hos pital patients. Summing it up, Sister Luke said, "There is no room to efficiently and economically operate the hospital under the present programs." Survay Notes The survey noted ihat Rogue Valley hospital is a modern, two-year old, well appointed and equipped insti tution. A number . of the clin ical and service facilities there are capable of supporting a much larger bed capacity and spacious' grounds and ample parking facilities have been provided. On the other hand, the re-; port pointed out, Sacred Heart hospital is nearly a half cen tury old. The state board of health will soon classify its beds and facilities as unac ceptable. Major fire safety Improvements must be made to meet the state fire mar shal's requirements. Parking facilities are inadequate, and the building site does not per mit expansion, according to the report. Another ft ve years j would be the limit of the present hospital operation. Oriente Province Invaders' Stand Trial in Santiago Havana (UPB Twenty - one "invaders" of Oriente Prov ince, including one described as an American, were to go on trial in Santiago today in revolutionary Cuba's second big court martial of the week. The prosecution was ex pected to demand the death; penalty for more defendants at Santiago than at Santa; Clara, where a "revolutionary tribunal" already in session ; has been asked to send five of 130 prisoners to the firing squad. The American among the Santiago defendants was iden tified as Anthony Zarba of Boston. The government said three other U.S. citizens -'. identified only as Allen D.; Thompson, Robert Fuller and, Paul Hughes - were among five or six "invaders" still at large. Reports from elsewhere in Cuba said 13 foes o Premier Fidel Castro were arrested Tuesday in Matanzas Prov ince,. East of Havana, and jailed at San Severino. There was no indication how soon they would face trial. Troops in Matanzas also were pursuing eight Castro foes accused of shooting up an Army-type jeep Tuesday, kill ing a child and wounding a woman, and trying to set fire to a truckload of cattle. Capt. Juan Esealona, prose cutor at the military trial in Santa Clara, asked the court at its opening Tuesday to im pose the death penalty on: Majs, Sinesio Walsh and Pll-i nio Prieto, ex-members .of! Castro's Army, Porfirio Ram- irez, Jose Palomino and Rene Salas. Although it was announced that the Santa Clara trial would be open to the press,! the prosecutor excluded American and European news men because, according to a guard, he was "tired of read ing U.S, reporters' lies." It was reported that cor respondents and photograph ers from Russia and other Iron Curtain countries were welcomed in the courtroom.

(Continued from Pago 1) Sweetland is running fori the Secretary of State's office now held by Republican How-: ell Appling Jr., a Hatfield appointee, who is campaign-: ing for reelection. Sweetland said the Forand bill is an extension of what President Roosevelt did under the Social Security program. : He said, "but to hear Repub licans talk, you'd think they proposed it" Soeial Security). The Forand biil would tie medical care for the aged in with the Social Security pro gram, he said, and added that employer and employee alike would pay only "one-quarter of 6ne per cent" more than they are now into the pro gram. Receiva Aid For those eiderly persons I who are not under Social Se-; curity, he said, it is proposed that they receive direct fed eral aid in combination with interest on the Social Secur ity fund for medical care purposes. Sweetland charged that tne Republicans, "who basically want to do nothing," have, be cause of public pressure, come up with a program that "is a complete farce and fraud on old people." Thev would propose that medical care for the aged be tied into the various states' welfare programs with the federal government matching state contributions in this respect. Doesn't Like Idea To qualify under this pro-i gram, he said, a person would ; have to completely "exhaust J his resources." Sweetland said he doesn't like the idea of having persons have to qual ify for welfare before they could receive the medical care j benefits. This is the proposal of the Republicans, he said, even though they claim they want people to be "self-sufficient." Yet his opponent, wno, ne said, "is great on attack and areat on denunciation, but who does lllUe else, "is de nouncing me for being for the Forand bill." Using Support Sweetland said Appling nas been using his (Swcetland's) support of the Forand bill as a means of getting campaign contributions from both doc tors and morticians. Appling is doing this, he said, even though "the office for which we are running has nothing to do with the forand am in any way." investment Funds Noon Quotations on aelected itinos: Fund Bid Bullock 12.21 Chem Fund 13.64 Colonial Encr 11.91 Eaton Howard Stk.. li-51 Fidelity 14.84 Group Sec Avia Eicc 8.24 Group Sec Com Stk 11.75 uroun sec ieir .... w.zw Group Sec Sieel . 8.12 troupsee looae a. 72 Keystone B-3 15.48 Keystone B-4 8.10 Keystone K-2 14.30 Keystone S-l 18.43 Keystone S-2 ...... 11,25 Keystone S-3 , 11.89 Keystone S-4 11.71 Mass Inv Grth Stk.. 14.13 TV-Eicc - 7.5S Value Line Jnc S.U Wellington 13.68 Ashed 13.3D 11.51 13.02 12.31 15 J3 8.03 12.87 10.16 BSD 9.58 10.87 B.B3 15.60 23.11 12 IB 13.08 12.78 15.24 8.23 5.58 14.02 Sweetland also contended that under the Republicans program, backed by Appling, part of Oregon's contribution would come from the real property tax through contri butions to tile welfare pro gram from counties. He said the real property tax is al ready "the one part of Ore gon's tax structure that is out of balance." Sweetland said AuDlins is advocating a program that the people of Oregon would have to "pungle up very large sums of money" to meet. He accused his opponent of being usually irresponsioie. Hegardmg the need for medical aid for the asted. Sweetland said recent federal statistics bear this out. Statistics Show These statistics show, he said, that of the 185,000 peo ple over in Oregon ll,per cent or me stale's population), 104,00a- of them make less than $1,G0G a year from all sources, including welfare and social security. And 135.000 of this total incomes under $2,000 a vear while only 25,000 have in comes of more than S3 .000 a year, he added. Sweetiand said medical authorities them selves ac knowledge that persons mak ing under $2,000 a year are to ae classified as indigents. In Oregon, he pointed out, this means that 78 per cent of persons over 65 are to be considered indigents. He said that: "Society has a responsibility to see that our senior citizens do not spend their Jives in squalor and misery." And, Sweetland said he favors medical care for the aged under Social Secur ity, where people help pay for their own medical insur ance, as the means of meeting mis responstosmy.
