The Beebe Hospital will hold
open house" on Wednesday, May
9 from 2 to p. M, and from to
g p. m, in observance of National
Hospital Week.
The public is cordially invited to
inspect the hospital and the equip
ment on that date Tours will be
conducted by members of the hos
pital auxiliary and students Of
the hospital school of nursing. Re-
freshments will be served in the
reception room at the visiting en-
trance.
National Hospital Week begins
Sunday and continues through May
II. The theme nationally and in
Sussex County will be your Hos
pital-For You and Your Commun-
ity."
From 1921 to 1851 National Hos
pital Day was celebrated on May
II, the birthday of Florence Night
ingale, the famous nurse crusader
OF the Cinean War, whose pioneer
service led to the improvement of
hospital care throughout the
world The first National Hospital
Day had endorsement of President
Warren G. Harding. Since 1858,
the observance of hospitals activ-
tiles has been extended to a week.
National Hospital Week is spon-
sOred annually on national basis
by the American Hospital Asso-
citation, the non-profit organization
representing the hospitals of the
United States and Canada. Beebe
Hospital is a member of the
American Hospital Association.
Every community is interested
in it's hospital and the quality of
care it offers. People want to know
how well their hospital measures
up to the standards. What are these
standards? Who establishes them?
Who checks that standards are
maintained?
All this is done by an organi-
zation known as the Joint Com
mission on Accreditati0n of Hos
nitals. 1t surveys hospitals in the
United States and Canada to see
Il they properly administered and
if sufficiently high grade of clint
cal medicine is practiced in them
The primary responsibility of a
hospital is to provide good medi-
cal and nursing care. One simple
wav exists for knowing whether the
service il offers is adeuuate. If it
is approved by the Joint Commits
Milford chronicle., 1956-05-04

sion on Accreditation of Hospitals,
hospital has voluntarily submitted
to survey of its facilities and an
appraisal of the quality care ii
offers.
The program of accreditation was
begun in 1917 by the American Col
lege of Surgeons. 1t was transferred
by the ACS in 1852 to the newly
formed Joint Commission, members
of which are the American Col
lege of Physicians, American Col
lege of Surgeons, American Hos
pital Association, American Medi-
cal Association and the Canadian
Medical Association. Each year it
costs a half million dollars to
keep commission surveyors in the
field, constantly checking and re-
checking hospitals.
This means that when you enter
Beebe Hospital, which is accredited,
you are assured of modern, up-to-
date care. Beebe Hospital is one of
about $500 institutions which have
passed the requirements necessary
for accreditation. Here is what the
commission tries to assure you, if
you are a patient in an accredited
hospital:
The building is clean and proper
ly maintained. Every precaution
has been taken against fire hazard.
There are adequate diagnostic IA
cilities, well supervised, including
clinical laboratory and an X-Ray
department.
The medical staff is organized to
ensure that the professional work
is constantly reviewed. If you have
previously been a patient here,
your medical records are complete
and are available to your physi-
cian And they must be kept up
to date.
If you are to undergo surgery.
YOU will receive excellent care
before, during and after the OPP
Grafton. Fire and explosion hazards
have been eliminated in the OPP
Grating room
instruments and dressings are
sterile. If your physician has any
question about his findings he
will discuss your case with another
nhvsician. Competent person adj
ministers your anesthetic. After
the operation. tissue removed in
surgery is sent to the pathologist
for examination, and your sur
geon's diagnosis is confirmed.
This, in brief. is what accredi-
tation means to you. There are
many other standards met by insti-
buttons like Beebe Hospital, which
Milford chronicle., 1956-05-04

are approved by the Joint Commits
sion. They add up to a guarantee
that your hospital is constantly on
guard for your health.

Area Employment
IUp 1000 for Nav

Employment in the Washing
ton area went up 1000 last
month, according to Fred z. Het-
Izel, District director of the
United States Employment Serv-
ice.
Mr.. Hetzel said an estimated
|638. 100 jobs were filled in May,
compared to 636. ZOO in April and
632, 300 a year ago.
Most of the rise is accounted
for by an increase of 1000 con-
struction workers and TOO Serv-
ice workers. Most other cate
'gorieS remained stable.
At the same time unemploy-
Iment dropped to 12,200 in May,
compared to 10000 in April. Mr..
Hetzel said the strong demands
for labor in the construction and
service industries more than
compensated for early summer
entrants into the labor market
from high schools and colleges.

Who Lacked Counsel

District Court Judge Edward

writ of habeas corpus freeing q
19-year-old youth who was COM

his rights to defense counsel.
Woodland served IA months be-

House-Senate conferees study
ing an amended Federal water
pollution control bill remained
deadlocked in disagreement after
a tWo-hour session yesterday
afternoon.
Another conference is slated
for 9 am. Monday. Due to the
press of other Capitol Hill bust
ness, it must end by II am.
According to close observers,
if agreement is not reached in
that period, Federal water pol
luton control legislation prob
ably will be dead for at least an
other session of Congress.
Present Law Expiring
The present eight-year-old
law expires next Saturday.
The present pattern of OPP
position against the amended
bill introduced by Representative
Blatnik, Democrat of Minnesota,
remained generally unchanged
in conference, it was understood.
1t is. expressed almost ex-
clusively against Section g.
which would authorize $500 mil
lion of Federal grants to States
and municipalities for waste
treatment plant construction
over a 10-year period.
Economy minded Republicans
have objected to the construc-
ton grant provision as the be-
of another huge Federal
spending program.
Would Act in Time
House Democrats, led by Rep
Blatnik, have coun-
tered with the argument that,
as far as the Nations water
resources are concerned, Fed
eral help is needed now before
the situation gets critical.
Aside from the construction
money provision, members of
both houses have been virtually
in agreeing that some
Federal aid to States is desirable.
This would include increased
funds for assisting in program
ming-zut not building-pollu-
ton abatement projects.
1t was learned that the joint
conferees yesterday spent much
of their time arguing over the
proportion Of Federal construc-
ton money that should be made
available to State and municipal
jurisdictions.
Ratio at Issue
The ratio contained in the
Blatnik bill calls for one-third
Federal money to two-thirds
Federal money to two-thirds
local share, with certain ceilings
on the dollar amount of Fed
eral help.
