AirIiner Hits Power Line
But Lands 49 Safely
By the Assoeioted Press

INDIANAPOLIS, Mar. 26.-An
American Airlines DC-6 made a
safe landing here tonight after
having struck a power line as it
was attempting to land at the
Chicago Airport.
The Los Angeles-to-New York
flight carried 40 persons and was
piloted by Ray Wamsey.
Frank Bodwell, local sales man
ager for American, said the plane
was routed here for an emergency
landing because it was not known
whether it was damaged severely
at Chicago.
Mr.. BodWell said the landing
was normal and that the plane
appeared to be undamaged.

Consumer Hoarding Is
Boosting Coffee Price
Experts Tell Nation

Hoarding by consumers is blamed
by the National Coffee Association
for the rising prices, which a Sen
ate subcommittee began investi-
eating on Monday. Domestic food
experts of the Commerce Depart
ment say that unless Mrs. America
quits worrying about and boarding
coffee, many millions of dollars
will be taken from the Nations
gullible housewives.
Grocery store prices have Jumped
from a 51-cent average at the
beginning of the year tc an average
of Is cents during the past week.
In spite of this there is nothing
to indicate any pending drop in
the coffee supply for Americas
breakfast table. A total of
100000 pounds more than 1913
import for the same period was
shipped into the United States in
the first nine months of the year
and 1948 was a record coffee year.
A check with local eating places
shows that in spite of the increase
in costs, the average cup of coffee
may still be purchased for a nickel.

He Got Us Our Hospital

eighty people took the trip with
him later in the week. They were
convinced.
So the hospital was built accord
ing to his plan. 1t cost $4,000
land and all, when finished six
years ago.
You can see from the picture
how it looks. 1t is so quiet and
homelike that city people some.
times ask to be admitted. Inside
it is flooded with sun, shining
clean and modern in every respect
Doctors we've known all our lives
and nurses who have become part
of the community are the folks in
charge. It's ours.
And if we like it, how about the
doctors? Man, they love it! The
old-time country doctor must have
been the lonesomest man in the
world. Bursting to talk shop and
nobody to talk to. Operating on
his kitchen tables by lamplight
when all his being longed for the
clean and precise surroundings and
the cleaning, unearthly tools of
modern surgery. Burning to learn
more and more about his profession
and not having much chance. Yes,
man would have to be mighty
sick at our hospital not to enjoy
the way our country doctors enjoy
working there!
1t supports itself. Last year it
handled 2,450 patients at an aver
age cost of $2.86 per day. There
are 80 beds. The public wards
take care of you for $18 week.
You can get private or semi-private
rooms for from $28 to $40 week.
Income from this source amounted
last year to $4,000 and the State
allowed an additional $4,000 for
the care of charity patients. An
other $4,000 came in last year
through the efforts of the Ladies'
Auxiliary of the hospital, and still
another $4,000 by individual be-
quest.
On the hospital staff, besides DIR.
Bird and the seven others in this
county, are ten consulting special
lists from leading Washington and
Baltimore hospitals. 1t is the
feeling around the county that these
fellows from town learn just as
much if not more from our doctors
as our doctors learn from them.
Editors Note: This story was
saved by the late Mrs. George E.
White, and as far as we can as
certain is the only copy in the
county. Mr.. Brigham's son men,
toned in the story can now retell
the tale to his son. With the an
nual donation day for the hospital
coming on Saturday, Dec. 3rd, and
a new wing almost ready to be
opened, this seemed a good time to
review the status of the hospital
when Mr.. Brigham wrote the story
% years ago. ~.

again to Aunt Lucy, feeling only
a dull sort of hopelessness. She
thought of Meadows. She shook
her head helplessly. The wash

1t was four o'clock when Aunt
Lucy drove her from the house.
"Everything's done that can be

room twice already. Now stop

long walk. Maybe some fresh air

Il don't think -"
Child" Aunt Lucy said. She
stood there, short and round and
determined.
Eyes, ma'am," Kate said. She
even managed to smile a little.
She walked slowly along the
shaded streets. The air was warm
and still. A large gray-striped cat
lay on a front walk in the sun. He
opened his eyes and regarded her
for a moment and then closed
them again and picked up his nap
where he had left it. An auto
mobile passed, and was gone. And
somewhere a lawn mower clattered
peaceably. She walked on.
A car pulled in to the curb
behind her, a neat, black sedan.
John leaned over to the righthand
window. II saw you," he said.
Il thought that maybe -"
No. Kate said.
"A ride, wherever you're going"
No." Kate said. Thank you"
She watched the neat black sedan
pull away from the curb, round
the corner and disappear. She
walked on.
So IT'S my fault, she thought.

how do you help? Any more clever

reply. She walked on.
She got back in the gathering
dusk, and so she missed the car
that was at the curb, the car that
stretched for yards, its top down
and its whitehall tires dusty from
back road travel. She went up the
steps and onto the porch. Aunt
Lucy said, There's a friend of
yours here, child. He just stopped,

him to sit for a while until you

Kate said, you haven't been

Nothing, Terry said. She could
not see his hands. but the cigarette

was beginning his gestures, the
way he did when his mind was
excited and romping on ahead and
the words could not keep pace.
