W. Earl Willis, Southside Hos
pital administrator, said his in
stitutlons favorable position in
holding the line in 1861 resulted
from greater occupancy against
an unchanging payroll. The hos
pltal must keep approximately
the same staff whether it is full
or half to three-quarters full.
The administrator also pointed
out that the drop in eXpendi-
lures per patient also resulted
in part from the hospitals con
slant efforts to operate at great
est efficiency with the assis-
lance of the board of mana
gers and the medical and ad-
ministrative staffs.
State Wide Deficit
Throughout Virginia hospitals
similar to that here experienced
a deficit of patient income over
the cost of patient services of
more than S million dollars

financing in other phases of the
economy, are in an upward
swing. with payroll expenses a
decided factor.

Members Confer
With Counsel
Here Friday

The Prince Edward county
school board has begun deliber-
atoms on pla to meet con-
dltions of a federal court direc-
tive issued last month by Judge
Oren r. Lewis.
Following a tWo-hour closed
conference here Friday with
Collins Denny, il. special coun-
sci for the b. ard. Chairman w.
Edward Smith told newsmcn,
We are going to submit a plan
before September 7. We don't
know the details exactly yet,
but plan will be submitted.
Judge Lewis directive. con-
tanned in memorandum opln-
ion of July Is issued at his
United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Virginia.
ordered that:
Judges Directive
"The School Board of Prince
Edward County is herewith di-
rected to complete plans for the
admission of pupils in the ele-
mentary and high schools of the
county without regard to race
or color and to receive and con-
slider applications to this end at
the earliest practical date. The
proposed plans should be sub
mitted to all counsel of record
not 4. later than September /.
1862. if possible, and to this
court on September 7. 1862"
Beyond indicating that the di-
rected planning. has begun, Dr..
Smith did not spell out what di-
mansions any plans might have.
He also touched on the subject
of actual public school reopen
ing with this pointed statement:
Other than for planning. the
school boards position is I'M
changed. We don't have funds
now, and we don't know when
we will have them
Funds Vital
Since 1859, the Prince Edward
county board of supervisors has
not appropriated funds for pub
lie schools, and the budget
adopted in late June for the
county's operation in the 1962-63
fiscal year continue that
course. Funds were earmarked.
however, to provide scholarship
grants for all children in the
event Judge Lewis injunction
against the use of county and
state grants was lifted.
In his opinion last month.
Judge Lewis reaffirmed the in
junction, stating. The motion
10 dismiss the injunction enter
ed herein on November Is. 1861.
and further extended March 26.
1862, is denied. The said iniunc-
ton is effective only SO long as
the public schools of Prince Ed
ward County remain closed"
Boards Position
In the numerous federal court
proceedings involving Prince
Edward ounty, the school
board, through its counsel. has
stated that it would establish
and maintain public schools.
Il funds are made available to
1t all in strict accordance
with the April %, 1860, order of
the federal court at Richmond.
That order. also. issued a direc-
tive similar to the one made
again last month.

However, Southside Hospital
shared with similar hospitals in

Against a daily outlay for pa
