more top-notch authorities outlining
nrison changes, and we now have a
legislative interim-committee ready to
90 into operation in research capac-
ity.
How much advice does the State of
Montana need before we act?
Next month we go into another
round of hearings on requests for
rate increases for the Telephone Com
nany and the Power Company.
These hearings will be nothing but
the usual farce unless something is
done to bring in rate experts, either
through demands on the Railroad and
Public Service Commission or through
the people pooling money to hire one.
A dollar from even a portion of
the users of electricity would handily
bring in rate expert. According to
figures of the Power Company the
minimum increase will be about $1.50
a month. For many of US it will
amount to five dollars a month or
more | would be willing to spend
the amount of what one months in
crease would be to have someone in
the hearings who could speak with
authority. If the expert says the in
creases are necessary, ok.
1t is close to maddening TO sit in a
hearing and listen to the counsel for
the utilities question the validity of
those testifying against the increases
because they have no expert" status.
The counsel for the utilities termi-
mates the testimony of all the ''yokels''
by saying it is immaterial, irrelevant
and incompetent. How can the peo-
pie get voice on that basis?
Another point where the people are
at terrific disadvantage is the mat
ter of time.
The Railroad and Public Service
Commission has given about 80 days
from the time the utilities requested
the increase till the public hearings.
The utilities, according to best esti-
mates, have spent at least months
preparing their case for the COM
mission.
They will have battery of experts
armed with utility propaganda, per-
sonality and charm.
And anything you or | might say
will be immaterial, irrelevant and ia
competent.

CORDOVA, Dec. 26--"Alaskan non- profit hospitals will face ser ious financial troubles unless the Territorial Legislature. provides some relief in it's next session" :" stated Alaska Hospital Associa- tion President Howard E. May, administrator of the Cordova Community Hospital.
 ''The statement was prompted by the recent announcement that the Territorial Department of Public Welfare would reduce its payment, starting Jan. 1, 1857, to profit hospitals for care of those aged and destitute by 25 percent-from SIP day to $9 a day to southeastern hospitals; from $1620 day to SIP to hospi- tals in the west and north dis tricts. Henry Harmon, director of the Department of Public Vel fare, stated in a letter to the hos pitals that the Department is out of funds for hospital care; and

 Money Troubles Unless Legislature Provides Relief

istration, now does. The Depart ment of Public Welfare agreed to the principle as being just, but is dependent upon the appropriation from the Legislature for the mon ey to make fair payment to hos pitals.
 No Favoritism Wanted
 ''The non-profit voluntary hos pital is an integral part of the health and medical protection to Alaskan citizens. The government hospitals are fully utilized, and could not possibly handle hospital needs of the civilian population in addition to their presently as signed functions. The voluntary hospitals want no territorial sub- sidies or favoritism; they seek only fair treatment by the terri tory-particularly that the Terri torial Legislature provide money to the Department of Public Vel fare to pay its bills for it's medic ally indigent people. The various municipalities should face the fact that they, too, have a respon- sibility to the hospitals to pay for care of their own medically indi- gent.
 Unless this is done, the volun- tary hospitals will have to raise the rates for the paying private patient to balance their budgets"

that altho his department has re- l1uested $1,5OO,0OO for hospital and medical care in the next bi- enniun, the Department of Fiji nance is recommending to the Legislature the same amount which has been inadequate in this present biennium.
 Burden of Charity Care
 Hospitals have been having financial struggles due to rising operational costs, numerous bad debts due to large transient population and unstable patient census. This situation is seriously aggravated by the fact that the territorial government is not pay ing it's share of the cost for care of indigents, placing an enormous burden of charity care upon the hospitals.
 '"The territory operates no hos pitals for care of people who can not pay hospital bills. Its one fa- cility for the aged, the Pioneers Home, is overcrowded and is not a hospital: Only two of the IT non-profit voluntary hospitals cannot turn away non-paying pa tients to the county or city hospi tai; they must accept everyone, whether or not they can pay.
 Emergency 10 Save Life
 "The Deparment of Public Vel fare has been paying from one half to three-fourths of the actual cost of caring for these indigent patients Eligibility for Welfare patients is limited to "emergency to save life" or permanent bed care" cases, usually of elderly people. Now Welfare reduces the payment by another 25 percent.
 Alaskan hospitals have been considering the problem for sew eral years. At the Alaska Hospital Assn. convention last June sev- eral resolutions were passed seek ing relief from the Legislature Among these resolutions was one asking the Legislature to grant sufficient appropriation to the Department of Public Welfare to pay hospitals on the basis of a reimbursable cost formula, as the federal agency, Veterans Admin
