Further Benefits Provided at Slight Increase in Cost;
 Holt Outlines Connecticut Idea

necticut Hospital Service. Inc, and will take over the assets and as- sume the contracts of the former plans. The new plan will symbolize its services as the Connecticut Blue Cross"
 Besides offering the public a new style of contract which will include practically all of the stores fur nisned by the hospitals. a provision for assisting people during the pe- ricds of unemployment will be in- cluded. Benefits under the new contract are further extended by providing in addition to 2l days full coverage in one year, an add ed 90 days at 50 per cent of the regular benefits, the member pay ing to the hospital the other 90 per cent.
 "The new rates for employed groups" added Holt, twill be 90 cents per month, for individual members, in place of the present rate of 75 cents; SITS for husband and wife contract, in place of the present SIPS; and $20 for family coverage in place of the present rate of $50.
 IT. conclusion, Holt stated. we believe the plan has furnished 8 means of protecting against hospi- tai bills which should be made available at least to every employed person. We should get together ana oemonsyrste to the govern ment that this is one problem that local initiative can solve and carry on without government assistance.
