THE FEDERAL HEALTH SERVICE

THE FEDERAL HEALTH SERVICE
Editor FL Paso Herald:
1t has been generally supposed that
our national health service was so eX-
tensive and so adequately financed
by a generous government that II
would compare favorably with that o.
any other leading nation Apparently
this is not the opinion Of the American
Medical association, as We note ma
one of the reasons advanced by TINS
organization at its recent annual con
ventiOn, for demanding a national ue-
partment for the doctors, was to Sc
cure "a central organization OF such
dignity and Importance that dep.alrI I
ments Of health Of states and cll ,
would seek cooperation and VIII play
heed TO its advice" The lnumatlon =
clear that our present federal service
is not dignified or efficacious enousl =
TO command the respect Of state ana
municipal activities This IS most sur %
prising. in view of the repeated utter
ances Of those supposedly pest quaI-
fled TO speak authoritatVely on the
subject
SO far back as 1886. Dr.. Jerome
Cochran was delegated by the Sanle
American Medical association wnleH
now anlmadverts upon the leueI al
health bureau, to investigate our na-
tional health activities In ms re-
port describing the federal service III
Cochran said:

II is the most powerful health depart
ment in the world There IS nothlhs

In 1911, shortly before his untimely
death, Dr. Walter Wyman, IN an aq-
dress delivered before the New 4ork
Academy OF Medicine. said
we hear a great deal about the
superiority Of foreign health systems
If IL exists. il is in the superior quail

gave chase.
The animal was driven into the lock-
walls and watchmen scattered in all
directions Taking up a position in
the WeitZel lock. it raised it's head
and snorted challenge The newsies
were on it's heels and chased the big
beast through the streets. Milk wag-
ons were overturned and numerous
plate glass windows were broken The
moose returned to the park and went
into the river, later disappearing on
the Canadian shore.
