OTHERS VIEWS
PRAISE FOR HOSPITAL

! To the Editor:
I have been a patient in the Maria
Parham hospital for ten days. I have
been so favorabiy impressed with the
| hospital | wish to speak a word of
praise. 1t is Henderson institution
| and we should all be interested in it.
The hospital is full of patients prac-
tically all the time. 1t had to double
! up in order to take me in. It carries
about twenty nurses and employees,
not including the surgeons and
doctors
The hospftaf is spotlessly clean. I
took a bath before 1 entered. They
have washed me like a rag each day
and I learn by grapevine that they
are going to disinfect my bed as soon
as I get out
The food is excellent. It is really
enticing, appetizing. During the last
several years | have eaten at great
many of the best hotels up and down
the Atlantic seaboard and none of
them prepares food more lastly or
palatably than does our hospital here
in Henderson.
Should you desire it, you will be
furnished with special or private
nurses, but if you do not want private
nurses, you have very obliging, we'll
trained registered nurses just outside
of your door day and night.
Our local hospital appeals to me in
many ways. l get my morning maiH
and my town paper delivered prompt
ly. There is a telephone by my bed
and 1 can telephone my friends or
attend to business without cost. I do
not have to get used to a different
climate or a different water to- drink
Noises do keep one awake, and I do
not have to get used to new noises
like the screeching of street cal
wheels or the driving of rivets in
skyscrapers My windows are large
and 1 get plenty of air. feel that the
surgeons here and my family ply
stefan know me and know what I
need and take a personal interest in
me. Here I do not have a tag with
a number, so to speak.
The attendants and people around
me speak the good old southern Eng
lish that I can easily understand.
My family is not disrupted. My wife
can be with me here at the hospital
and at home at the same time and,
aside from the convenience, do not
object to the money saved thereby.
This reminds me that in this article
l have not referred to relatives
charges Of different hospitals Should
I get excited and choose to go to
some hospital in large city, would
doubtless find myself at some hospital
from which our surgeons and doctors
have graduated. The world is not so
large any more.
You have doubtless heard that
great lecture called, Acres of Dia-
monds.' This lecture was delivered
some ten thousand times without
charge. 1t told of man who went far
away looking for diamonds only. to
find that the rock which kept his
door ajar at home was a huge dia-
mond of many carats and much value.
S. T. PEACE.

Revenue Maxwell and others who
have been looking into the matter are
convinced that this would not be the
case. Indications are that the finance
committees are already about con-
WINGED that a two per cent sales tax
with no exemptions would not bring
in more than $7,7O0,000 year, or at
least 100000 year less than
three per cent tax with the exemp-
lions. Accordingly, indications point
more and more to the retention of the
three per cent sales tax with exemp-
tons as recommended by the Ad-
visory Budget Commission and the
Department of Revenue. A good many
members of the committee are already
worried at the loss of 100000 year
in revenue as a result of restoring
the exemptions, with the result that
they have no desire to kiss another
100000 a year goodbye as they
would have to do if the sales tax
should be reduced to two per cent.
The suggestion that the sales tax
rate be increased 70 four per cent is
being made by those who are becom-
ing worried and alarmed at the con-
s'antiy increasing demands for lar
ger approp iations from the public
schools and all the other State de-
partments and institutions and who
see no way of regaining the revenue
lost by restoring the exemptions ex-
cept by increasing the rate.
But the older and more experienced
members of the General Assembly are
refusing to become alarmed at the
big requests for appropriations, main
tain that these will be pared down
later and that it will not lbe necessary
