HISTORICAL NOTE

1852 The Jews' Hospital in New York is incorporated for "benevo-

lent, charitable and scientific purposes." Sampson Simson is the first President.

1855 The new Hospital is opened, on May 17, in a four-story building with 45 beds, at 138 West 28th Street, between Seventh and Eighth Avenues. The original Staff of ten men includes Dr. Valentine Mott and Dr. Willard Parker. In accordance

with the usage of the period, there is no separation of Medical

and Surgical Services, because surgery is not considered suffi- ciently important; nor are there any specialized services. In 1941 the Medical Staff numbers 830, with thirteen clinical departments and six auxiliary diagnostic and therapeutic departments.

1856 In its first full year the Hospital cares for 225 patients. Running expenses total $5,493. In 1941, 17,222 in-patients and 27,654 out-patients are cared for, and running expenses amount to $2,521,383.

1862 The Hospital opens its wards to wounded Federal soldiers of the Civil War, installing additional beds and increasing its personnel for the purpose.

By Its services in the care of the sick, the Mount Sinai Hospitp.l long ago attained tne stature of one of the outstanding medical institutions of New York City. By its contributions in research and in medical education, its beneficent influence hps been extended to the Nation and to mankind. Knowing this, aad knowing too that your institution is serving our prmed forces and civilipn defense in the present war as in tne last, I an gled to offer my good wishes pnd congratulations on the Hospital's ninetieth anniversary.

The unselfish efforts of lay and professional people which have created Mount Sinai and our other great voluntary hospitals afford inspiring examples of a spirit that is largely responsible for making the America we know and cherish. At a time when the Nation must draw upon ell its resources for medical and health care, we are fortunate in being pble to rely upon men and women whose skill and devotion make our hospitals the finest in the world.

Very sincerely yours,

V Teorge blumenthal, President Emeritus

and for more than forty-nine years a Trustee of the Mount Sinai

Hospital, has passed away, leaving us, his colleagues, with a sense

of irreparable loss.

From the inception of his services as a Trustee he took an

active part in the conduct of the Hospital and for twenty-eight

years he filled the office of President with outstanding ability and

distinction, resigning three years ago at the age of eighty.

Vital and fearless, his broad outlook on life and his munificent

generosity were important factors in the development of this

institution from a modest plant with its two hundred and fifty beds

to the present hospital of more than triple the capacity and with all

the ramifications that modern science demands.

Deeply interested in the welfare of the patients, he was con-

stantly planning for the care not only of those actually in the wards,

but by his keen interest in medical research was thinking ahead

for that larger group of future patients, and for the community

in general.

Intellectually honest to a degree, he brooked no departure

from his rigid code in others. Beloved of his associates, he will be

sorely missed in the years to come.

To the members of his family we extend our heartfelt sym-

pathy in their great loss, and as a mark of respect the flag of the

Hospital has been lowered to half-staff, and the Board of Trustees

will attend the obsequies in a body.

29 Resolution on the Death of James Speyer

TA h e board of trustees of the Mount Sinai Hospital have learned with deep sorrow of the death of James

Speyer, Honorary Trustee of the institution.

James Speyer joined the Board in 1902, and remained as an active Trustee until 1935, at which time he was elected as an Honorary Trustee.

Throughout his connection with the institution, he showed himself to be at all times a true and generous friend, who made possible through his generosity many of the great advances of the past four decades. He took a keen interest in the advancement of science, and always had a most sympathetic attitude toward the patients who passed through the doors of the Hospital.

Outside of the Hospital, he was an outstanding figure in the field of philanthropy, as well as in the cultural and business life of the City. In all of these fields he leaves behind many achievements as evidence of his ability and citizenship. He earned the respect of all who knew him by his sincere humanity, his modesty, his uncompromising integrity, and his personal charm.

It is further resolved that the Board of Trustees attend the funeral in a body, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to his family, and that the flag of the Hospital be lowered to half-staff.

LEO ARNSTEIN, President

PAUL M. ROSENTHAL, Secretary Resolution on the Death of Arthur Lorsch

It is with profound regret and deep sorrow that the Board of Trustees of the Mount Sinai Hospital has learned of the death of its colleague, Arthur Lorsch.

For more than ten years, beginning with his election as

Trustee in 1928, up to the time when illness interfered with his active interest, he gave generously not only of his means but also of his time. He evinced always the deepest interest in the affairs of the Hospital and the welfare of the patients entrusted to its care.

His keen interest in the research work of the Hospital was demonstrated by his many contributions to the laboratory's activities. His genial and sympathetic personality endeared him not only to his colleagues but to all those with whom he came in contact.

To his bereaved family, the Board extends its most heartfelt sympathy.

It was resolved that the flag of the Hospital be placed at half- staff until after the funeral.

LEO ARNSTEIN, President PAUL M. ROSENTHAL, Secretary

31 Resolutions on the Deaths of Dr. Joseph Brettauer and Dr. Seth Selig

TJ_he board of trustees of the Mount Sinai Hospital has learned with deep sorrow of the death of Dr. Joseph

Brettauer, whose passing on December 26th terminated nearly fifty years of useful service to the Hospital, during most of which he filled the important positions of Attending Gynecologist and Con- sulting Gynecologist.

His great professional skill and medical attainments earned for him the deep and lasting respect of his colleagues, and his kindness, sympathy, and understanding in ministering to the sick poor of the City in the wards of the Hospital gained for him the affection of all who came in contact with him. His death is a great loss to the Hospital and deprives the public of a rare personality and a power for the best in medical practice.

LEO ARNSTEIN, President PAUL M. ROSENTHAL, Secretary

e board of trustees of the Mount Sinai Hospital has learned with profound sorrow of the sudden death of

Dr. Seth Selig, who has been connected with the Hospital since

1922. His invaluable services in recent years as Orthopedic Sur-

geon to the Hospital and his personal interest in the welfare of its

patients make his untimely passing a great loss.

Gentlemen:

With the passing of another year I must again express regret that my health has not permitted me to enjoy contact with the ladies of our Society. From our Secretary, however, I note that we are no exception in that the war has made itself felt at our meetings. A gratifying number have found it possible to continue active participation in the work of the Society, and special thanks are due to them for their faithfulness in this year of conflicting obligations.

Many of our members, however, were engaged in war activities that necessarily interfered with their usual regular attendance. Their experience in our workroom will, I am sure, stand them in good stead.

May we all express the hope for a speedy and complete Victory.

Respectfully submitted, Mrs. Leopold Bernheimer, President

financial picture for 1941

The cost of operating the Hospital was $2,398,877

These operating costs were exclusive of costs of research, postgraduate medical education, and other activities not directly connected with maintenance of the Hospital. Approximately $1,350,000 were used for salaries and wages. This sum, of course, does not include the value of the services given gratis to the sick poor by our unpaid professional staff.

To meet a part of these costs, patients paid to the Hospital only $1,196,617

Receipts from other miscellaneous sources amounted to $ 11,532

The difference is the total philanthropic expense for the year, or $1,190,728

84 FINANCIAL PICTURE FOR 1941 is

Grants from Federation, the United Hospital Fund, the Greater New York Fund and the City, supplied the Hospital with a total of $ 990,224

Income from endowment funds, donations, etc., amounted to ... . $ 67,060

Leaving the Hospital with a final net shortage or deficit of $ 133,444

This deficit added to other deficits since the depression years beginning with 1930, has now reached a total of $1,929,637

e large deficits of the past twelve years could have been avoided only by curtailing in quantity or quality, or both, the services rendered by the Hospital to the sick poor of the City. Be- cause these services are urgently needed, it has been the policy of the Board of Trustees to maintain them as long as possible, and the deficits have been met out of the limited capital funds of the Hospital. Such capital funds were expected to provide income for maintenance purposes and the depletion of these funds to keep the

Hospital going has correspondingly reduced such income. There is obviously a limit to this constant drain on the Hospital's reserves. Due to this serious depletion of income, the Hospital

urgently appeals for increased capital donations so that it may

continue to serve adequately and efficiently all who need its care. THE MOUNT SINAI HOSPITAL TREASURER'S REPORT
