ties, who said the plan, that of
making for each patient admitted

x-ray, has been in effect at Com
munity hospital for one-year.
In order to render the service
and not make it financially bur-
densome, the price of the x-ray
was reduced from $3.50 to 81, with
the Lexington hospital foregoing
thought of profit According to
DR.. Weeks, the hospital, the doc
tors, and the people of Holmes
county are proud of the plan of
the routine x-ray.
Records in large hospitals where
the policy of routine chest X-ray
has been practiced for some time,
show greater per cent of chest
pathology found than in other me-
thods of mass chest x-ray, it was
said by DR.. Weeks.
The health director cites an in
stance wherein a married woman
entered a hospital not practicine
routine chest x-ray to all admit
