HOSPITAL BOARD
RETAINS PRESENT
RATE FOR SERVICE

No increase in charges for ward
beds and services at the James
Walker Memorial hospital was the
policy adopted by the board Of
managers at their recent meeting
and announced yesterday by James
Roe, chairman.
They did however, Roe said, in
crease the price of four private
rooms so cents a day. The chair
man added that the increase was
voted for by the board after it was
pointed out that present charges
were below the average for the
institution.
In addition to receiving routine
detail reports from John Rankin,
superintendent, the board heard a
report compiled by Duke univer-
sity comparing the mortality rate
among patients with those Of hos
pitfalls throughout thsrCarolinas.
The report as read by Rankin
revealed the local institution has
the lowest mortality rate Of any
hospital of comparative size in
either state, Roe said.
