PACE BIX THE HBWPORT. MEROOXT AND WEEKLY HEWS FRIDAY, APRIL 1948 SOCIAL AGENCIES HEAR I ORDAINED THURSDAY NEW RENT LAW LISTS NURSING SERVICE NEED Newport Now Only City In Without Program Advantages of Unified Plan De- scribed Present Duplication Jilt by Stole Director The need of a public health nursing service In Newport was presented, and possible means for coordinating and augmenting present nursing services to achieve a unified and complete service were discussed by the Newport Council of Social Agencies held last Friday In the Newport Y. M. C. A.

Miss Catherine McDermolt, director of nursing education for Rhode Island, described tho operation of such a organized to cover tho entire community with the objectives of carsick, preventing promoting public Ing for the disease, and health. Newport, it was pointed out is the only Rhode Ilsland community now lacking such a service. A sur voy made several years ago by the council's nursing committee Hit cd several types of services icing given here, Including that by school nurses, tho tuberculosis as- Boclatlon, two Insurance companies who serve policy holders, the Swlneburne School well-baby din- ic, tvyo stato nurses In tho field of maternity care and child health, and the local health department nurse, concerned especially with control of communicable diseases. Tho advantage of unifying these services under one program were, describee! by Miss McDcrmotl. Under A divided plan, she said, there Is much duplication of time and of travel expense, yet tho service Is not complete, and not all people who need It are getting bedside service.

An Important advantage would bo a regular program of education to main' tain higher standards, under the direction of a qualified nursing supervisor. Combining the services would mean providing perhaps eight nurses including the supervisor, tu cover tho city by districts. Uniting tho boards of existing agencies In a Joint board with Joint staff and pooling funds would bo necessary. "A good deal of money being spent now," she said, "am wo 'could get more for our money." Tho first essential would bo the backing of the community through a citizens committee in which nil racial and religious groups and organizations would bo represented. Tho next step would be the organization of a board, Incorporated so that II could act ns business gioup with Tho nursing supervisor would function directly under this board.

Sources of funds to support the service were listed by Miss Mc- Dermotl, who said that fees are charged for calls on those who can afford to pay, other funds coming from the Communlt; Chest, and from agencies nov supporting individual nursing services. It was recalled that a districl nursing sen-ice was avallabli some years ago, but was discon tlnucd because it placed too much responsibility on the studen nurses- from the hospital wh: made the calls. Details of the plan were also discussed nt a special mectinj earlier in tho afternoon, attendei by W. Gurnec Dyer, president tho Newport Hospital, and Harry Dunham, superintendent; Gcorg Harrison, president of the Com miinlty Chest; Bradford Leys of the Nurses' Alumnae Association; Mrs. D.

The new federal rent control law, signed earlier this week by President Truman, continues, regulations covering maximum legal charges about as before, but provides new 'grounds; for evictions, Louis C. Chayer, area rent director, said today. A rent control board In Newport County has been functioning.

Another will be set up for Providence, Bristol and Kent Counties, and the third for Washington County. Under the new act, ho, added, a landlord cannot compel a tenant In controlled housing to pay high crrent unless the tenant agrees to a 16 per cent increase lease running t6 the end of 1949; tho rent director issues a formal' order on one or the 15 grounds provided for such adjustments; or the rent in the OR' tire area Is raised with govern ment approval. Chayer emphasized that the new law does ifot require any tenanl to sign a lease'nor does It require the landlord to offer a lease but the question of a lease is left to mutual agreement. In tho event of such an agreement, the new lease must run until December 31, 1919, and must call for not more than 15 per cent additional over the former legal maximum rent. In cases where the tenant and landlord under the 1947 rent act executed a lease with a 15 per cent rent hike which expires before December 31, 1949 1 such lease may be renewed by agreement until that date without any additional rent Increase but the new lease mus be signed before the end of the present calendar year.
