Hospital care threatened by general price rise says Brown

Number 14 in general will adversely affect hospitals. This means that while a day's work will each year buy an increasingly larger amount of most things, it will buy a decreased amount of hospital care.

He perhaps writes about St. Clare striving to meet every demand.
