SICKNESS INSURANCE.
An Accompaniment of Civilizations
In Effect in Europe.

Just as the safety first movement

profitable for employers to prevent
injuries to their employees, SO the

This, in brief. is the principle set
forth in an article IN the weekly
health reports Of the United States
Public Health Service. A study has
been made Of sickness insurance sys-

The prediction is made that changing
conditions in the United States will
| sooner or later, as in other countries,
force the enactment of law providing
| for sickness insurance..
| The two points which are empha-
sized in this article are the growing
! necessity for providing for the care
| Of workers who become i'll and the
| practicableneSs Of such a method as
a factor in preventing sickness and
the restitution which results from
| sickness. The fact that so many work
| ers have an income insufficient or
| barely sufficient to subsist on is evil
dence of their inability to provide for
themselves and their families in times
of i'll health. The State and commun-
ity can do much to prevent some con-
ditiona that breed disease, but with
present conditions they cannot either
make the workers save enough to pay
for adequate medical attention and
support during illness or make theil
employers realize that it pays, as q
simple business proposition, to prevent
sickness among their employees The
result is that g. large percentage Of

suggested, would be provided by con-
trlbutions as follows: Insured per-
