Dr. Bradford, who came
from private practice in Cal
ifornia to the Veterans Ad

White City, explained the op
eration of county hospitals
in general and those in Cali
fornia in particular.
Local specialists are much
closer to northern California
residents than those in the
San Francisco Bay area, he
said. He told of one case last
was injured in an auto acci
year in which a young boy
dent and sent to Medford by
Mercy nights.
The parents were on Cali
fornia welfare. But, because
their son was not hospitalized
in California, the welfare de
partment could not pay the lo
cal hospital.
Statistics show the aged are
five times as long in a hos
pital as the working grouo
and three times more numer
ous,-Huntley stated. .
Judge Miller noted ' the
county's annual budget in
cludes money for pay-nent to
hospitals for uncollectable
and indigent accounts. He
said the county budgeted $80,-
uuo last year for this purpose.
He' said he is in favor of leu-
isiation which would provide
for hospitalization of tran
sient Indigents.
Next meeting of the Inter
community council will be at
noon Tuesday, Feb. 19, at 248
East Stewart ave.. in the
Commission for the Blind
