For note: The Office of Hospital Survey and Construction recently announced favor of a grant of $275,000 in construction funds for a new Munising hospital.) "The policy against supporting the construction of small hospitals is based on several considerations: 1. "Small hospitals art unable to provide a complete range of services, equipment and personnel, particularly those of a more nature, needed to render total patient care. 2.

is often difficult to operate a small hospital at high stand- I aids and at the same time maintaining reasonable costs. 3. adding to a larger hospi- tal, it may be possible to obtain more and better patient services at lower costs by not huving to duplicate certain central services I such as x-ray, laboratory and I operating rooms, which would have to be included in a new Informed In 1948 "In 1948, representatives of the Gladstone area were informed that no additional beds had been programmed for their city for the I above stated reasons.

During fund-raising activities about this time, there war no indication that the drive was being undertaken in anticipation of Hill-Burton assistance. It was not until August of this year than an inquiry came concerning the availability of Hill-Burton assistance for the Gladstone nospital. "A meeting was held on Sept. 20 by the interested persons from Gladstone and the director of the Office.

this meeting, it appeared that many persons in the community believed that it was necessary to raise local matching funds before a firm commitment could be obtained and had proceeded on this assumption. Not Po'ewiile was apparently hoped that, once the cash wras in hand, it might be possible to ecure a change in the position taken in the policies of the Office of Hospital Survey and Construction. "Still, persons connected with the earlier effort in Gladstone might have remembered that they had received a commitment in 1952 even before they had a formal organization or Knew how they were going to go about the fund-raising campaign. It appears, too. that the fund raiser w'as not aware of the withdrawal of the commitment for federal funds.
