put the financially troubled
hospital out to bids which will

If no bids are received on
the hospital the directors are
exploring other avenues to keep
the hospital in operation. Nevada county is one of 13 which
owns the facility.
The payroll of the hospital

Did you know that within California, dialing long distance
calls direct is not only faster, it’s a good way to save money?
Dialing direct on calls within California costs less than it does
to place the same‘calls through the Operator.
And if you’re looking for a real long distance bargain, dial
your station-to-station calls direct between}1 1'p.m. and 8 a.m.
any night, or from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays and holidays*. During those times, you can call anywhere within
California for only 49 cents or less, plus tax, for the
first three minutes.
Even in the few communities where long distance
calls cannot be dialed direct, the low direct rates

and part time employes and an
annual payroll of $1.9 million.
This year’s budget is $2.8 million.
The hospital got in financial
trouble since Medi-Cal cutbacks
last October. It has been operating at a loss of $7000
monthly.
The second blow came last
week when the hospital's biggest supporter, Sacramento
county, voted to withdraw from
the agreement effective July 1.
Five of the 13 counties which
represent 0 per cent of the
budget for Weimar said their
supervisors voted to close the
facilities.
Each county pays its share
dependent onthe population. Sacramento county represents about
50 per cent of the cost.
The facilities at Weimar were
established 51 years ago as a
tuberculosis treatment center.
It was built on 55 acres which
are enclosed at the facility.
Another 400 acres outside the
area are owned by the counties.
The 50 acres enclosed in the
hospital area is being offered to
a non-profit corporation which
may bid on the facilities. Disposal of the remaining acres
will be discussed later.
Hospital Administrator Lloyd
Hamilton said a community operation of Weimar would relieve the 13 counties of the
burden of managing the hospital. He hoped each county
would contract with a new corporation for TB care.
The counties that own and
operate Weimar are Sutter, Yuba, Colusa, Sacramento, Amador, El Dorado, Placer, Plumas, Yolo, Sierra, Solano, Inyo and Nevada,
