For Inferno Treinins
The Pierce County Hospital has
been accredited by the American
Medical association during the past
ten years for inferno training. This
status was attained only after long
hard work and devotion to that end
with q definite singleness Of pur-
pose. The medical library had 4
rather humble beginning in 1928.
The administration gave much
thought and effort toward building
IT up and was enthusiastically hope
full OF its steady development. Ev-
cry step was taken in seeking sup
port and asking for the needed
funds.
However. many cherished plans
for this department, as for all
others. suffered severe and SEEM
ingly interminable setback with the
onset Of the depression. Being
definitely yoked with the vicissi-
tudes OF the political fortunes of
the county the entire hospital be-
gan its physical decline at that
time. because Of greatly curtailed
funds.
Crowded conditions forced an In
vssion of the library for office
space by the business manager
and the superintendent OF nurses.
Later In 1888 when the state gov
eminent assumed partial support
and jurisdiction. 1t gave the hos
pitsl a social service department.
The only possible space was the
library which 1t occupied COM
pletely.
Deeoms kuniRed
Thus the medical library was
nullified for the purpose for which
it was intended. This was the rea-
son why the American Medical as
ISOLATION one year ago took the
hospital off its fully approved list
and placed 1t on the Professionally
approved list.
They were fully justified In this
matter. They generously gave US
a year Of grace TO rectify the mat
ter and refrained from more sum-
mary action when certain requests
regarding medical journal suhscrip-
tons were complied with. The hos
pitai In still under probation and
is not removed from the approved
list.
Thus. the administrator has been
able as in the past to again this
year obtain a full staff of internes
for the year ie40-4l.

Many Of our internes, after COM

elect to stay over for second year

However. approaching what
greater opportunities for higher
training the second year affords.
in recent years the majority elect
another year rather than launch
ing out into practice Immediately.
This hospital Is prepared to seek
and expect recognition for a resi-
dency In obstetrics and gynecology.
There Is therefore an opportunity
TO advance also the other depart
ments. What is needed is the all
essential development which money
expended for new departments,
new equipment and added person
mel can alone make possible. Any

Under the leadership Of President
Roosevelt even though the cost in
money has been high, "the United
States of 1910 is a sounder, a Scher
!social and political enterprise than
the United States of 1892" Ramsey
said. He emphasized that the next
administration, "be it Democratic or
Republican, will make precious lew
changes in the basic reforms which
have been instituted. They have be-
come accepted parts Of our govern
mental system"
! Ramsey described the president
thusly: "Compelling orator, MASTER
full strategist, warm humanitarian, in
vincible leader, genuine American"
. Governor Hoeys Administration,
the speaker said, has led in "a nota-
bic Job in state-building. Construct
ing upon the work of its predeces-
sors, it has made North Carolina a
stronger state economically, a more
beneficient state socially, a more
contented state politically"
Specifically he discussed Hoey
achievements as: keeping the budget
balanced. without diversion Of high
way funds for general government
use: reduction Of the states debt by
S26,OOO,OO0, even while spending
s7,OOO,OOO "ror highly desirable per-
manent improvements aid to the
cause of education, especially through
provision of free elementary text
books; continuance Of highway con-
struction and reconstruction, and
particularly improvement of secon-
Diary roads; fircprooring of state in
situations for the mentally afflicted;
aid to the unemployed through I'M

ward steps in dealing with crime and
criminals by establishing a depart
ment of justice, Il bureau of inves-
tigation, and Il modern probation
system to work in conjunction with
lone Of the most civilized parole sys-
tens in the nation" He praised the
governors 'timely warnings" that
the rights of labor TO organize and to
strike would be protected but that
''investcd capital would be safe
guarded in the peaceful occupancy
and legitimate Use OF its property"
He also singled out for praise the
! work of the state in getting new in
dustrics and increasing tourist trade;
the unparalleled record Of the state

rate reductions secured by the utili-
ties commission.
Governor Hocy, ne said, is "toO big
