HOSPITAL COSTS
HIGHER BILL FOR WAGES [by telegraph —OWN correspondent] NEW PLYMOUTH, Thursday Increased wages costs totalling £4OOO were incurred by the Taranaki Hospital Board last year owing to the introduction of higher pay and additions to the staff required to do the work in the shorter hours.
