Delaware is in a financial jam
caused by free spending and sur
prisingly small receipts in the is-
cal year that ended June 30.
The state dipped into its bank
account for nearly S6,000,000 more
than it earned in the 12@month
period.
The immediate result was $5,-

wasted away from $S,540,963 to ST.
567, ,S17 between June 80, 1856, and
June 80, 1867.
The lOng-Tange result may be a
deficit of several million dollars

current fiscal year.
Tax increases and new taxes may
be needed to keep red ink off the
books even if receipts do turn up

The state is committed to $685.

Institution When Treat

AS a resident of The First State,

when disqualification is needed,
according to a recent survey made
by the. Delaware State Develop
ment Department.
While Delaware's population has
grown by leaps and bounds in re-
cent years, the states general hos
pitfalls and institutions have tried
to keep pace with consistent inn
provement and expansion of facili-
ties. During the past three years,
the nine general hospitals have in
creased the number of beds to l.
421, a net gain of 1913.
There is now one hospital bed
for every 100 residents of Della
ware, which is considerably better
than the national average of one
bed for every 242 persons. In fact
Delaware ranks sixth among the
states with 5.24 beds per 1000 per-
sons. (4.12 is the national aVerage.)
As beds per 1000 persons is gen.
orally assumed to be adequate to
minimum needs of average COM
munity.
Over a three-year period, the
greatest gain in number of beds
was made by Memorial Hospital,
Wilmington, with an increase from
210 to 1926 rejecting for the most
part, addition of a new wing. Com
pletion of Riverside Hospital added
