VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

We should be just before we are
generous.
Our city hospital, like our city
waterw0rks. is a purely city ins,itu-
tiCn, owned and maintained solely by
the City of Ottawa. Like our city
waterworks, it is presumed TO be
doing our service-devoted to our in
terests. Only those residing within
the city limits are taxed toward main
tanning it,
Unlike our city waterWOrks. our
city hospital has never been self-sup-
porting. And, unlike so many other
institutions of this kind, it does not
enjoy the doubtful good fortune OF
being born rich. Because the re-
ceipts do not equal the expenditures
the city for number OF years con.
trfbuted $4,000 a year, raised by taxa.
tion, to keep il from being over.
whelmed by a deficit Some six
months ago this annual appropriation
was raised from $1,000 to $500 65.
Today the citizens of Ottawa are pay
ing nearly 500 a week in taxes TO
keep the doors OF our city hospital
open, and 80 per cent of its service
goes to people who reside outside the
city and contribute nothing in taxes,
directly or indirectly, toward main
tanning it. When the well-to-do out
of-town patient comes to our hospital
he is charged no higher rate for the
same service than the Ottawa tax.
payer, who owns and maintains ii.
In reality the out-of-town patient gets
service in our city hospital for less
money than we do, for he pays only
when he requires its service, and tie
Ottawa man pays all the time, and
gets no lower rate when he is there.
The expense of maintaining a pub
lie institution that is supported by
public taxation should be borne in
just proportion by those who are bene-
fitted by that institution. The out.of,
town patients, many of whom are in
affluent circumstances, should DE com
PEELED TO pay a fixed sum besides the
regular rate, when they come to our
hospital in Lieu OF the taxes paid by
Ottawa people to keep our city hos
pital in readiness, so that its service
may be instantly available to them
as we'll as to us.
This is not merely a theory. We
have a precedent in our city water
works Residents who have their
dwellings, connected with the city
water service must pay fixed sum,
even il they use no water, because
it costs money to keep our city water
service in readiness for instant USE
just as it costs money to keep our
city hospital service ready and avail
able for instant use. We would not
permit a man outside the city limits
to connect with our city water serv-
ice and maintain the pressure at his
faucet at the city's expense, and then
charge him only for the water he
used whenever he had occasion to
use it. But that is just what we are
doing with our city hospital 1t has
been said that we must take in out
of-toWn patients because we need the
money-because they produce a reve-
nue.. As long as we have more hos
pital service than we require there
can be no valid objection to taking in
outside patients, providing there is
some equitable measure of justice in
the matter of charges to those who
are taxed to maintain this institution
We should be just before we art
generous.

Most of the newspapers continue to
combat the decision of the conference

the Russian governments, character

unsound.
Both the Petit Journal and the Petit

the Bolshcriki are reported TO stand.

the stock exchange authorities that
there is nothing to indicate the
probability of a speculative move
ment which would absorb large
amounts of money.
