Hike Over '50, Does Not Include Those Treated in Clinics The Wilmington General Hospital cared for a total of 7,759 "inpatients" during 1951, and this total shows an increase of seven per cent over 1950, it was reported yesterday by O. H. P. Baldwin, president. The "In-patients- figure does not include persons who were treated in the various clinic of the hospital but did not remain there.

Patient days amounted last year to 52.612, also showing an increase over the preceding year. The average length of time that a patient stayed in the hospital decreased from 7.3 days to 7 days. "This trend towards shorter and shorter periods of hospitalization is even more impressive if you go back only 10 years. In 1941, the average length of stay for a patient at the Wilmington General Hospital was 9.8 days so that in the past 10 years the average stay has been reduced by 2.8 days or about 30 per cent," the report points out. It explained that the reduction "has been accomplished through the use of new drugs and better medical techniques resulting in more rapid recoveries, plus recognition by the medical profession of the benefits of shorter periods of hospitalization.

This shortened stay is. of course, an important factor in the patient's total hospital bill. The summary of financial operations shows the hospital had total operating expenses of $1,034,931 in 1951, and ended the year without a deficit. The amount received from patients. Blue Cross and the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis was $844,057.

Th-s total operating expenses included: salaries and wages, food, supplies and other expenses, provisions for repairs and replacements, $67,132. That left an operating deficit of $190,874. It was made up by $103,875 In appropriations from the state and county; $234259 in income from trust funds; and $63,640 In donations through the United Community Fund and other sources. In 1950, the hospital had a net deficit of $9,837. The hospital's report also points out that there are more than two hospital employes on duty for every patient.

"Part of the regular charge to a patient goes to pay the salaries of these two employes who provide for his care and maintain all of the services incident to his stay. "All operating costs of the hospital, just as in thi case of a hotel power and heating, laundry, kitchen, elevators, painting, plastering, cleaning and all general maintenance expenses make up part of the charge to the occupant of a room. However, unlike a hotel, the hospital patient is, in addition, provided with trained medical and nursing care, and has, standing by for his immediate use when needed, a wide range of specialized equip ment, much of it expensive, that in cludes everything from iron lungs and oxygen tents to X-ray equip ment and electrocardiographs. Added to that he has meals served to him in his room that have been prepared under the supervision of experienced dietitians. "in other words, a patient, when considering his total hospital costs, should remember that he is paying not only for his room but for all his meals, for experienced care 24 hours a day, and.for specialized equipment instantly available, plus the salaries of the people, many of them highly trained, who provide all of these things." GOP- CenUAaet Free First Tt Arthur Summerfieid as national chairman.

Mr. duPont had been reelected national committeeman from Delaware by the Delaware delegates to the Chicago convention out mi. Killoran has become a member of the national committee by virtue of a change in the rules regarding membership, affecting those states that went Republican in 1948 as xar as the GOP presidential candidate was concerned. MrS. Edmund N.

Carpenter, elected by the Delaware delegate to succeed Mrs. Julia H. Taiiman, is away on vacation with her hus band. Met Candidates It was at that meeting of the na tional committee that Mr. duPont and Mr.

Killoran met General Eisenhower and Senator Nixon. Both men said they intended to visit every state in the nation dur ing their campaign and most certainly wanted to visit Delaware and they wanted to make it more than just a train stop. Senator Nixon also expressed a personal interest In coming to Dela ware to help the campaign of his friends, U. S. Senator John J.

Wil liams seeking reelection and TJ. S. Rep. Caleb Boggs who will seek election as governor Of Delaware. Senator Nixon sent word to Delaware through Mr.

Killoran that both deserve the greatest support and admiration of Delawareans for their outstanding services to their nation during their terms in Con gress. Senator Williams who had been in Chicago during the convention had planned to return to Delaware Friday night with the other Delawareans but he and Mrs. Williams remained behind at the request of General Eisenhower who after he had been nominated, requested that all Republican Congressmen in Chicago meet with him to discuss general legislative problems. Senator Williams and fellow Re-xmblican senators and representa tives met with General Eisenhower in the Conrad Hilton Hotel in Chi cago on Saturday and then the senator and his wife began their homeward journey yesterday. Plans State Drive In the meantime, Mr.

Killoran. almost immediately upon his arrival back In Wilmington, began plans for the preliminaries leading to the actual opening of the 1952 campaign in Delaware. He announced test niht toe sttec- of parliament, the Majlis. No offl-7 cial announcement was made. The deputy said Mossadegh presented a single bill proposing that he be given the right to "initiate and enforce" for six months the rigid measures he believes necessary to put his bankrupt nation's finances, economics, banking, and employment back on their feet.

At the end of that period, the deputy said. Mossadegh promised to ask both houses of parliament to turn these measures into law if they felt som good had been accomplished. Government By Deere In effect, the proposal would give Mossadegh the power to carry on the major governmental functions by decree It was the first time the premier had attended the Majlis in seevn months and it was his first official act since accepting reappointment to the top government post last week. Mossadegh still has not formed a cabinet, and he was said to have told the deputies they must first decide on his proposal for sweeping powers before he could present a government lineup for their approval. Iran has been heading for the economic rocks ever since Mossadegh pushed through nationalization of the huge British-run oil industry.

The resulting British boycott virtually padlocked Iran's main source of national income. The government has been forced to operate on a shoestring, borrowing from reluctant lenders and issuing new paper money in an inflationary spiral in order to pay the bills. It is likely that stiff opposition will confront Mossadegh's request for new blank check powers when the Majlis holds its next scheduled closed session on Tuesday to discuss his proposal.
