Hospital Superintendent Reports
1905 People Admitted In 1949
BY MYRTLE MCCARTHY, supt.

Columbus County Hospital was
very busy place in l949. A to-
tai of 4,005 people were admitted
to the hospital, and 1902 people
were treated in the out patient
department, many of these re-
turning for more than one treat
ment.
The laboratory at the hospital
is a very small place. actually
measuring about IL II but in
this small space much important
work goes on. The two laboratory
and X-ray technicians. Mr.. Frank
Blanton, and Mrs. Ruby league,
who gave service "a hours per day,
seven days each week, performed
a total of 1880 laboratory exam
nations during l949 and made l.
600 x-rayS.
Many lives are saved each year
by blood transfusions, but before
his life-saving blood can be given
TO the patient, a donor must be
found whose blood matches that
of the patient. Sometimes as
many as 20 donors must be typed,
and cross-matched before the
right blood is found. In l949 267
transfusions were given and $50
blood samples were typed.
The surgery was busy spot
also. All operations were per
formed with only % deaths &C.
curing after operations. 465 OF
these were classed as major OPP
erations.
A. total of. 725 new citizens of
Columbus County arrived at the
hospital during the year and since
total deaths at the hospital, from
all causes, was only 49,. it seems
that the hospital is doing its share
to increase the population of the
county.
When thinking of the work at
the hospital many people think
Of the nurses. In addition to the
10 registered nurses on the floors
the hospital also employs two
registered nurses especially
trained in operating room proce-
dures. and a registered nurse who
has had special training and years
of experience in giving 'anesthesia,
There are also Is nurses aids to
help care for the patients. The
records necessary to carry on the
business of the hospital are han
died by a business office staff OF
five people, and it takes the full
time of one record librarian just
to keep the medical records OF
each patient.
A housekeeper and a mainten-
ance engineer have a staff OF .
maids, orderlies, and porters VINO
keep the. hospital clean, and 5
people work full time in the laun-
dry to provide the clean linen for
the hospital.
Two laboratory and X-ray tech
nicians provide "a hour service III
their department.
Feeding the patients and en-
ployees of the hospital is never
ending job. In addition to the
dietitian who superviseS this de-
partment there are Z people VINO
handle the various procedures OF
food preparation and service ana
the immense job of dishWashlng'
This makes total of "a people
in addition to the superintendent
who give their full time to taxing
care of the sick of Columbus
County.
The hospital belongs to the peo-
pie of Columbus County,, anu we

The House referred the resolu-
ton. presented by it's criminal law
section, back for further study by
its committee on peace and law
through the United Nations and
the section on international and
comparative law.
In urging the resolution. its
supporters pointed out that "to

Sir Norman, who served for a
year as an associate Judge at the
Nuremberg trials. said he saw
there, as a result of the Nazi rule,
"the disaster which overcomes a
great people and a great land
when the supreme rule of law
and justice is overcome"
''The courts were the register

Hitler regime. land there was no
place for a fearless advocate of
"a fair trial"
Mr.. Fowler told the banquet
guests: II believe that, if we lose
this land of opportunity by rea-
sons of the apathy of our citizens,
lit will be because the lawyers have
not fully realized their duty of
leadership to the American peo-

Huge Paintings In Hall.
The giant hall was decorated
with a huge painting of the
Lincoln Memorial at the west
end. and a painting of the
Jefferson Memorial at the east
end.
The largest banquet in the 73-
year history of the ABA was
served by the Mayflower and
Statler Hotels, who cooked the

last February. More than 300

Jack Morton and his concert Or

Among the highlights Of the
convention earlier in the day was
a resolution passed by the House of
Delegates for the protection of
the exclusive jurisdiction of the
Supreme Court.
The recommendation. passed
after an earnest plea by for

Owen Roberts. urged an amend
ment of the Constitution. Where
the law now permits Con-
gress to bypass the high court by
setting up inferior courts of ap-
peal, the amendment would re-
serve to the Supreme Court the
exclusive right to pass on the
constitutionality of all acts of
Congress. The House had in mind
the case of the OPA during the
last war. when regulations of the
agency were submitted to an
especially created court. which
passed on questions of constitu-
tionality.

however, the USW will live up to
it's contract terms if the industry
isn't willing to concede.
Fairless Talks Rumored.
There has been repeated specu-
lation that Mr.. Murray has held
secret talks with Benjamin F.
Fairless. president of big United
States Steel Corp. concerning a
f1ve-year contract tied to the cost
of living.
Mr.. FairlesS wasn't available
for comment and Mr.. Murray,
when asked if he had been in
communication with any steel
company about wage rates, re-
piled:
There have been no contracts
or communications from any COM
pany."
Top strategists of the steel
workers believe their ace in the
hole in upcoming talks with the
industry is the fact they didn t
get a wage increase last year
The SteelWorkers ended a 42-day
strike by passing up wage de-
mands in lieu of an improved
pension and welfare plan.
The steelworkers now earn an
average of $1.70 an hour. That
is S cents an hour lower than the
average rate in the auto industry
which granted a 10-cent boost
recently. The reported average
hourly rates in Alcoa range from
$1.08 to $1.31.
Other Reasons Offered.
Mr.. Murray, who declared the
steel industry's profits alone JUS
tify a wage boost, summed up the
unions demands by giving these
three reasons why he believes
the national interest requires
higher wages:
q. The needs of our people.
80. The Nation at present is
going through a period of ma
tional mobilization. No doubt in
the next few months will begin to
be felt shortages of manpower,
particularly where questions of
wages have not been settled.
"3. The question of maintaining
at a high level during a
grave national emergency"
Board Session Concludes.
AS the wage-increase demand
went into the mails, Mr.. Murray
presided at the concluding session
of the Executive Boards two-day
He indicated the board
up of himself, other inter-
national officers and 33 union dis
trict directors-would deal with
the Steelwofkers' union shop drive

we wouldn't need legal aid or

He suggested also that every

it would establish a great deal o1
good will for the bar throughout
the Nation.
After it's vote recommending
that Mr.. Truman approve the
Wood -McCarran measure, the
ABA adopted a motion to have
its action reported to the Presi-
dent without delay"
After this mornings business
session. the convention adjourned

Long Way to Co..
Bruce Bromley, a former as
sociate judge Of the New York
State Court of Appeals, said that,
in Jurisdictions where judges are
elected by popular vote. the citi-
zens are entitled to more help
than they are getting in per-
forming their duties as electors.
1--WE have a long way to go to
equal the British method Of selec-
tion Of judges" he said. although
he pointed out that in jurisdic-
tions where judges are appointed
local bar associations and the
ABA are doing their best to see
that able and experienced men are
named.
Mr.. Bromley. who was defeated
for reelection as a judge last
year, said he had been unable to
campaign actively for his Office
because party officials pointed out
he had to maintain the dignity of
the bench. sis

Steel Union Demands
Immediate Increase
For Million Members
BY the Associaied Press

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 22.-The
CIO-United Steelworkers served
formal notice on the steel indus
try today it wants an almost i'm
mediate wage boost for its mil
lion members.
Formal notification letters to
1,400 firms went into the mails
shortly after Philip Murray, pres
ident of both the CIO and the
steelworkers, came from a meet
ing of the Steelworkers' executive
board to announce the demands
Mr.. Murray didn't say in dol
lars and cents just what will sat-
isfy the union.
Up to Policy Committee.
The veteran white haired labor
leader said he'd leave that up to
the unions Wage Policy Commit
tee which has been summoned to
meet here October 4 and S.
In his formal notification letter
to employers, Mr.. Murray de-
clared:
obviously, the national interest
requires that we conclude a mutu-
ally satisfactory agreement at the
earliest possible date
There was no immediate conf
ment from leaders in the war-vital
steel industry which is roaring
toward new production records.
Announcement of the Steelwork-
ers' demands came only a few
hours after the Aluminium Co. of
America offered it's $4,000 en-
ployes a 10 per cent wage boost.
The steelworkers represent
about 10000 of Alcoa's 10000 pro-
duction workers.
Mr.. Murray said the union will
seek a conference Monday with
Alcoa officials. Tomorrow the
offer will be reviewed by the USW
at meeting here with local union
leaders in the Alcoa plants.
The Alcoa offer, coming on the
heels of pay increases in the auto
and other industries, obviously
will strengthen Mr.. Murray's hand
in negotiations with the steel in
dustry.
The steel contracts call for
wage reopening November / of
this year.
However, Mr.. Murray requested
