to be PAID py the DlStrlcL dealtIl
Department to Washington hoSpi-
tails. The City Council has beer
asked to raise the rate next year te
at least 1851, the present cost tc
the hospital for caring for one pa
tient for one day. The hospital esti-
mates there will be about 5000 days
of such care, which would cost the
city about $4,000.
These are three factors, common
at many hospitals. which are keep
ing patient per-day cost so high:
/. Hospital expenses jumped from
s465 ,839 during the eight-month pc
riod from February to September
1947, to s523,37l for the same period
this year.
2. Fewer patients during the pc
riod were in the hospital this year
to pay bills.
Most Beds in Wards.
3. More than 100 of the hospitals
1863 beds are in wards. These are
billed at So a day, as compared with
SO for the "a semiprivate rooms, and
$1l and Sl2 for the 81 private rooms,
thereby bringing in less income.
Comparing hospital expenses with
operating income during the eight
months, the hospital reported an
operating deficit of $47.159. Oh1cials
estimate this loss will reach $4,000
for the entire year.
At the same time, Mr.. Adams said
the hospital has debts to suppliers
for September and October alone
that total s26,80O. About $78,50(
still is owed to banks. The hospital
also is paying a $4,000 debt tc
the Government for a construction
project in 1943. when the institu.
ton was expanded from 100 to 16s
beds. In addition the hospital has
borrowed $4,000 from its endow-
ment fund.
These long-term debts were q
principal cause for the hospitals
drive last year to raise 100000 In
voluntary contributions. While 1882
TOO was pledged, officials said, $87.
l57 of that amount is still to be COL
lected.
Campaign Cost $4,000.
The money raised in the fund and
collected was used to pay $26,50C
toward the debt owed banks and
S31, 900 to other creditors. Another
$31 900 represented costs Of tns
campaign, off1cials said.
In a survey carried out last veal
by DR.. j. R. Clemmons of Roosevelt
Hospital, New York, the hospital was
criticized for borrowing from the
endowment fund and for what il
said were faulty collection methods
It also hit at the accounting system
complaint that has applied In
surveys to nearly all Washington
area hospitals.
In q move to raise funds, the
hospital last month put up for sale
building at 706 Duke street, neal
the hospital, which officials hac
hoped to convert into a nurses resi-.
dence hall. Value of the property
officials said, is about $4,000.
The hospital also raised rates fol
all its rooms 81 last month.
In his letter to the council, Mr.
Haddock said the paying patient IL
doing all he can to pay his own bill
THE paying patient he added
can no longer assume this com
munity responsibility
Other hospital leaders will looE
with interest to the community!

 YANKEES
By JOE RE1cHLER


 Nine teams are still in the run ing for the Major League flags today as the greatest of all baseball cam paigns roars past the two-thirds mark.
 The list includes Cleveland, Phil adelphia, Boston and New York in the American League and Boston, St. Louis, New York and Pittsburgh in the National.
 Only two and half games sepa- rate the first four clubs in the Amer ican, while six and a half games separate the first five teams in the senior circuit.
 At the moment, the Indians and Braves are on top, but neither posi- ton is secure.
 By splitting twilight night doub- le-header with washington while the Tigers were defeating the Indians, 7-3, in Detroit, the As tied Cleve- land for first in the games won and lost. However, since they've played six more games and could do no bet ter than get an even break in them, the As trail the Tribe by six per- centage points. After the Senators won yesterdays opener, S-2, the AS came hack to win, 11-2.
 The Red Sox moved past New York into third place, two games oil the pace, by downing the Yankees, 9-6. in New York The New Workers dropped into fourth place, two and a half games behind the leaders.
 The Braves lost ground to each of their pursuers when they were beaten by the Giants in Boston, 6-5. The Dodgers whipped the Philadel- phia Phillies, 5-2, in Brooklyn to take second place from the idle Cardinals by a fraction of point. They also shaved Boston's margin to three games. The fourth place Giants are five games behind and the fifth place Pirates, who trounced Chica- go. 5-1, in Pittsburgh, are six and a half games off the pace.
 In the only other game yesterday, the St. Louis Browns advanced with in a game of sixth place by vanquish- ing the last place Chicago White Sox, 3-1.
 Bobby Teller, trying for his 12th victory, went down to his 18th de- feat instead when he was clubbed for eight hits and five runs in the six innings he worked. Pat Mullins 18th home run in the fifth produced three runs and pinned the loss cn Teller.
 A crowd of 67,691 saw the Red Sox come from behind with five runs in the eighth to defeat the Yankees. Vern Stephens double off Vic Ras- chi with the tases loaded was the big blow.
 Pee Wee Reese's home run with two mates aboard in the first inn ing was all the Dodgers needed to defeat the Phillies as Rex Barney permitted only five hits for his 10th victory.
 Ralph Kiner banged two-run homer in the first inning, his 29th, to get the Pirates off to good start.
 The Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds were not scheduled.

 Portland's Beavers-building up steam for the stretch run-threw righthander. Don Johnson, just in from Kansas City, at the San Die go Padres. Johnson responded with a 6-1 victory.
 It brought the Beavers record since July II to 21 wins in B games, a pace which only San Francisco has equalled. Dewey Adkins of Los Angeles turned in the nights flossiest pitching stint in setting down Hollywood's hard-hitting Stars with three bingles. The Angels won 9-1 as Eddie Sauer batted in four runs with a homer and a long , fly. Adkins famed eight in notch ing his 11th win.
 SeattlSs Guy Fletcher posted his 18th victory with an 8-4 decision over Sacramento. He walked eight and gave up eight hits, but pitch ed his way out of several jams Hills Layne's three singles paced the 11-hit Rainier attack.
