HOSPITAL BOND
ISSUE EXPLAINED
BY ALDRED
The Chamber of Commerce
this week continued it’s drive to
have a “yes” vote on the hospi
tal bonds on May 28 when Chat
tooga Countians will go to the
polls to state whether or not
they wish to have the county
contribute one third of the
funds toward the building of a
25 or 30 bed hospital. Should the
issue pass, the county will sell
SIIO,OOO In nonds.
“Approximately $90,000 of this
SIIO,OOO will be used for the
erection of a 25 to 30-bed hospi
tal,” Fred Aldred, President of
the Chamber said this week.
“The construction will be start
ed in the near future. Approx
imately $20,000 of this money is
to be put into a sinking fund to
be used as a deficit if one should
occur.”
Mr. Aldred said that a 25-bed
hospital has b a en approved by
the State Hospital authorities
of Georgia and the state will
match the $90,000 that the
county will put into the project
if the bond issue passes.
“Now,” he said, “after Chat
tooga County has put up $90,000.

the state, $90,000, the federal
government will participate and
contribute another $90,000 which
will make a total of $270,000.
This amount will build a beauti
ful, modern and properly equip
ped hospital.”
Mr. Aldred stated that the
County Board of Commissioners
has agreed to allow this hospi
tal to be built on the beautiful
wooded plot of land next to the
! County Home.
I "Mr. Fred Thomas said that
Ihe would beautify the corner
j across the road from this plot,”
Mr. Aldred said.
“Now, as to the cost and taxes
to be paid to build this hospital.
You will be assessed P/2 mills on
! the regular taxable rate of your
1 property which is one third of
I the actual value,” Mr. Aldred
stated. “In other words, if you
have property worth $3,000 the
taxable value will be SI,OOO and
your taxes at P/2 mills to help
erect this beautiful and modern
hospital would be $1.50 per year,
which is a very low and small
tax for such a great and needed
service.”
"All in all, the people of Chat
, tooga County cannot fail to vote
for a beautiful, modern and
: built hospital to be built as
quickly as the architect and
builders are ready after it has
I been approved by you, for the
very low sum of P/2 mills on the
taxable value of your property.
“We cannot afford not to vote
■ for this bond issue because it
• will be a long, long time before
■ the county authorities, the state
authorities and the federal gov
ernment authorities will agree
■to participate all at the same
time in a project that is so
necessary and needed in this
county.
“Five to nine good business
men will be appointed by the
Chattooga County Commission
ers as a Hospital Authority to
run this hospital. The authority
will operate on a self-perpetuat
ing basis, whereby one or two
members will be repalced each
year. This as you know will take
the running of this hospital out
of anybody’s hands other than
those who have the welfare of
the people of Chattooga Coun
ty at heart.”

Deofness Up-to-Date
There’s encouraging news for
the deaf and the hard-ofhear
ing. Physicians now have a more
hopeful attitude regrading the
possibilities of preventing deaf
ness, improving hearing, and
assisting the deafened to
achieve a better adjustment.
Many persons have been help
ed to hear better and to lead
happier and more useful lives,
because of recent improvements
in treatment technique.
Physicians now employ a wide
variety of treatments such as
the use of penicillin and other
modern drugs to cure infections,
surgical measures, changes in
the diet, treatment of allergy,
and treatment of emotional dis
orders.
Special hearing tests make
possible efficient advice to the
partially deafened for the best
use of his limbed ability, Such
tests also improve medical ad
vice concerning hearing aids.
Those with impaired hearing
may now be optimistic, because
improvements in medical know
ledge have not completely pass
ed them by.
It is advisable, frequently, for
the partially deafened to consult
a physician or specialist.
