That gift of $4,000 to the college

her daughter of Biglerville, Pa,
their second contribution of a like
sum in two years, carries on a
practice established by their husband
and father, the late c. H. Musselman
a large cannery operator. Mussel-
man and his brother, as young men,
were interested in becoming foreign
missionaries. However in those days
the missionary movement was not as
we'll organized as it now is and they
lacked the necessary finances to
prepare for foreign service. To
solve the problem it was decided
that one should go into business and
provide funds to support the other
brother in the mission field. The ar
rangement was carried out and
during his lifetime c. H. Musselman,

HOSPITAL
Continued From Page One)

N. C. Nurses Association had
accused the management OF
James Walker Memorial hospital
with exploiting the nursing staff,
Penton replied with the assertion
that the Board recognizes nurs-
ing AS profession and not Ia
Dor union.
'T'he Board of Managers has at
all times recognized the nurses
as members of a profession and
has undertaken to deal with them
on that plane. We are now asked
TO bargain with the nurses on a
basis of labor union and to sign
2 contract which we believe will
substantially destroy our efforts
to administer our proper duties
as trustees,' Penton's statement
for the board continued.
"The Board president also rap
ped the nurses allegation that
the hospital staff was being ex-
plotted.
"The scale of wages and the
working conditions of this hos
pital have at all times been COM
parable with those existing IN
other hospitals in this section OF
the country. The board has at all
times from among it's members
had available Nursing commit
tee empowered to handle and ad-
lust matters pertaining to nurses
employed by this institution.
"In view of this fact, the charge
made publicly that our nurses
have been exploited in the past,
or will be in the future, is not
only non-sensical, but borders on
the slanderous."
"Penton's statement for the
board reiterated that the group
considered itself trustees, not
only for terms of the will of the
late James Walker, but also for
the public.
"We conceive it our duty and
responsibility to provide hospital
care and to protect the interests
and welfare of the sick of Will
mington and this community.
"We ,epersuaded to the belief

that the mass resignation of staff

that the mass resignation of staff
nurses employed by the hospital
is strike - no more, no less -
against the welfare of the people.
If, as the nurses contend, there
is exploitation, then it is the
public that is being exploited,
or who will be should this most
unfortunate and ill-advised mass
resignation become effective, !"
Penton's statement said.
"The Board presidents decla-
ration also spiked reports that

members of this Board freely
admit the right of labor to Or
ganize, to indulge in collective
bargaining and, if necessary, to

the claim to the right to strike

D. T.. Postal Receipts
Remain Above 1916
During October
By Edword c. Stone

For the second time since last

once in October scored an increase
over the same month year ago,
registering a gain of s35 ,587 or 2.42
per cent, Postmaster Vincent C.
Burke announced today
Postal revenues in october
amounted TO $l.500,659 in compari-
son with 81 ass, ,072 in the like period
of 1946. The other gain this year
was in September which leads Post
master Burke to believe that the
revenue trend has now turned up
ward after the long decline.
Receipts at the Post Office in the
first 10 months of this year amount
ed to sl3,388, ,889 as compared with
sl3.674,445 in the like 1916 period.
a decrease of s285,SS6 or 2.0s per
cent.
The October increase was due to
general business improvement, Mr..
Burke said, noted particularly in
parcel post. Overseas Christmas
shipments are now heavy, as they
were at this time year ago.

wear compares as follows with re-

Stock Market Uneven
Losses Predominate
In Quiet Dealings
by VNtor cuDohk
Associated Press Finance Editor

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Assorted
stocks made feeble passes at re-
covery today although the market,
as whole, was Indifferent.
Dealings turned sluggish after a
moderately active opening. Early
advances running to a point or Sc
were reduced or cancelled and minus
signs predominated near the fourth
hour.
Bullish sentiment was predicated
partly on the economic outlook, end
ing of credit controls and the shift
to the conservative ranks by British
voters. Pleasing dividends and earn
ings were more or less ignored and
this inspired some selling. Questions
regarding taxes and the possible re-
sumption of several Federal con-
trols proved restraining influence
Republic Aviation pushed up at
the start on a sizable government
plane order but failed to hold. Beth
lehem Steel jumped to another new

improvement was shown for Amer
