Suburban Hospital Lets Contract
For New SIS Million Addition

The contract for the building
of the new IS bed wing of Sub
urban Hospital in Bethesda was
awarded by the Board of Trust
eeS of the hospital to the firm of
William p. Lipscomb, Inc, hos
pital officials reported this week.
The new construction is
scheduled to begin around the
middle of August. 1t is hoped
that the new wing, which is
sorely needed to alleviate over
crowded conditions in the pres
ent 125 bed hospital. will be
ready for use in late September
or early October, 1856.
Awarding of the contract was
delayed several weeks while the
hospital board of trustees strug-
gled to overcome financial diff
culties resulting from construc-
tion bids that were some $780,
600 higher than the estimate of
costs received six months ago,
and from a shortage of $780,
600 in the hospitals building
fund drive which so far has
raised 1871 or S450,000 of its
100000 goal.
Carroll Morgan, president of
4. i. II
Association, stated, Our occu-
pancy figures show that the
community needs and wants an
enlarged Suburban Hospital.
Therefore, we are going ahead
with the new construction and
are counting on continued and
broadening support by the com
munity to make this possible"

Store DeVOtee
Windows to
Newspapers

One of the most complete pic
torial stories of the romance, art
and business of newspaper pub
fishing is being told in the Wash
ington area through window dis
plays in the four stores of the
Woodward and Lothrop Com
pany.
The Bethesda Chevy Chase
store of the company, located
at Wisconsin and Western Ave
nues, features the MONTGOM-
cry COUNTY SENTINEL
of the few papers in America
able to count 100 years of I'M
broken publication-as well as
other area publications.
A copy of Vol. 1, No. 3 of the
SENTINEL, dated in 1855, is
shown in Woody's window along
with a current issue of the news
paper.
In the two WILL stores in
downtown Washington as well as
in the Alexandria store of the
company, a total of 40 windows
are given over to a graphic de-
scription of all phases of news
gathering and printing including
teleprinters and wire photo trans
mitters in action.
Nor is the mechanical side of
the newspaper industry neglect
ed. Step-by-step the production of
newspaper is shown from log
cutting for pulp through a flat
bed press.
Woody officials describe the ex-
hibit as an educational program
of a non.commercial nature with
no thought of merchandising. The
exhibit will tsay in the windows
of all sotres through July %.

Local Trade
Unaffected by
Transit Strike

Apparently county merchants
aren't profiting from the buSless
plight of local shoppers, even
though stores in downtown Wash,
ington report a noticeable loss of
business since the Capital Transit
strike began.
A SENTINEL survey of coun,
ty trade groups showed that
stores in the various shopping
centers have had no upsurge in
business that could be attributed
to the lack of public transporta-
ton to the downtown area.
The large department stores,
however, report that their subur-
ban branches have been doing
better business than usual, while
their main stores are off. Jelleff's
reported Substantial" change
in the usual relationship between
the volume of business in their
suburban and downtown stores,
while the Hecht Co. said there
has been "some effect.
One department store official
estimated that branch sales have
increased 5 percent during the
strike, with downtown business
dropping CORRESPONDENCE.
Speaking for the smaller .mer-
chants, David Scull, president of
the County Commerce Associa-
ton, said there was no general
difference in the usual volume of
business.
He was seconded by Robert
Furman, president of the Bethes-
da Chamber of Commerce, who
added that the strike has brought
Bethesda businessmen more pro
blems than benefits. The con-
gested traffic brought on by the
influx of private cars is a block
to business in the Bethesda area,
he said.
Yves Baxter, executive director
of the Rockville Board of Trade.
said there was small furry of
trading on the first day of the
strike, but this couldn't be direct
ly attributed to the strike. The
up-coming July weekend, with
Monday a robustness day, may
have accounted for it.
Board of Trade President Joe
Steinberg also said he had
noticed no difference.
The same situation was report
ed by Vic Leisner, president of

chants had experienced no change
in their usual business pattern.
Since the merchants have
found no tremendous jump in
business in the county, it would
seem to indicate that local shop
pers buy in their community bust
ness districts regularly, rather
than going downtown - either
by bus or by car.
Purchases planned to be made

Pole Type Houses and Rat Con-
troll on the Poultry Farm also
were shown.
McHenry said that feed car
rier is a poultryman's biggest
labor saver-and at a small cost
of about lac per hour for the
time saved. He added that a
catching hook and crate on the
feed carrier also will save a lot of
time in culling for the carriers
used in laying houses.
Most important back-saver, Nc
Henry claimed, was an elevated
feed platform arranged SO that no
,iifting Of food bags Is necessary
Another 'iabor-saver more and
more poultrymen are investing in,
he said, is bulk feeding equip
ment. It also saves about IS a
ton on cost of feed-or net saw
ing Of about So after deducting
bag money.
Other labor-savers he showed in
his illustrated lecture ranged from
such items as a home made cart
for moving pullets from brooder
house to laying house, to different
ventilation methods many poultry
men have developed to get dry
draft-free houses.

Turkey Price Prospects
Look Good

It's almost turkey marketing
time, points out Willard McAllis-
ter, marketing specialist at the
University of Delaware College of
Agriculture, and Delaware grow
ers. are wondering what they can
expect in the way of price this
year. 1t, seems certain that farm
prices for turkeys will be above
those of last year, he says. The
real question Is "how much.
If present prices can be used as
an indication, It looks like prices
would be between three ana six
cents a pound over last years
price. wholesale market price
of 55 to So cents for ready-to-
cook fry-r6asters and young heavy
hens and 43 to so cents pound
for medium % size young toms
seems TO be the best guess of
those who study the market
trends. Prices paid to growers
for live turkeys usually average
between is to 20 cents below the
wholesale ready:to-cook quotation,
McAllister said.
Almost as many heavy type
turkeys are. being raised this year
as last, but there are about 10
percent fewer Of the light weight
breeds. Also, a much larger pro-
portion than normal of the turkey
crop was started late this year.
Many OF these will not be ready
for Thanksgiving market, Meal
lister thinks, and this suggests
that late october and November
may be a better market than De-
cember and later, he says.
The University of Delaware
marketing specialist advises grow
ers to keep an eye on the market
and get at. least portion of their
crop ready for market so that
they can take advantage of any
quick changes in the price situa-
tion.
