HEALTH INSURANCE

Twenty-Five out of every 1000 en-
ployees in American industries, ac-
cording to recent statistics, are con-
stantly incapacitated by sickness, the
average worker losing approximately
nine days each year on this account.
This "non-effective rate" for the great
army of industrial workers in the
United States barely suggests the to-
tai money loss to employers and en-
ployees. The lessened efficiency, the
effects of reduced earnings in times
Of sickness, as we'll as the cost of
medical attention, and the economic
loss from deaths, swell the cost to
industry and to the Nation to almost
incalculable figures.
That much of this loss is nothing
less than preventable waste and that
this waste can be largely reduced by
properly conducted system of gov
ernmental health insurance for wage

LIFE OF HUGHES

Charles Evans Hughes was born in
Glens Falls, N. Y, April II, 1862,
making him four years younger than
ex- x-President Roosevelt and six years
younger than President Wilson.
His father was Baptist minister
and his mother was a devout woman
who shaped his early education with
the idea Of preparing him for the min
istry. He was graduated from Brown
university in 1881, one of the five Phi
Beta Kappa honor men of his year.
Finally he attended the Columbia uni
versity law school, holding the prize
fellowship from 1884 to 1887.
The public first heard of Mr..
Hughes in 1905 and 1906. 1t was in
Hughes the mean hmtemeo mtmemma
those years that he served, first as
counsel of the Stevens legislative COM
mittee investigating the gas compan-
les of New York, and then as a
counsel for the Armstrong legislative
committee for the investigation
of insurance business in New York.
In the insurance investigation he un-
earthed nationwide scandals and the
whole country followed the dramatic
story which he revealed.
Before his investigation was half
finished, however, Republican leaders
seized upon the record which he made
to carry their party to victory.
The New York City Republican con-
vention nominated him for mayor but
he declined because he had not finish
ed the insurance investigation.
Elected Governor
The next year w. H. Hearst was
nominated for Governor by the Demo-
Gratis. Hughes was selected by the
Republicans as the man to defeat the
fusion candidate and he was elected,
the only Republican on the state ticket
who was not defeated at the election.
Throughout his administration he
was at loggerheads with the Republi-
can organization.
He first urged the passage of the
public service commission law, telling
the legislature that a railroad COM
mission paid by the railroads and only
advisory powers was inadequate.
Little attention was paid to the pro-
posed measure by the legislature and
governor Hughes took the question to
the people. He stamped the state for

FORTUNE IN PREMIUMS

A study of the amount of premium
money paid out each of the last six
years, furnishes an excellent line on
the growth and expansion of the Mon
tana State Fair during that period.
The amount has been more than
doubled during that time, increasing
from S9032.95 in 1910 to $18,5O48O
in 1915, says Secretary R. S. Skinner.
The growth has been steady and con-
sistent and in harmony with the
steady march of progress in the state.
In 1910 the fair offered $9,O3295;
in 1911, $11 1,912.6O; in 1912, S12,14S.2O;
in 1913, s14,310.O4; in 1914, $780,
164.42; and in 1915 the offerings reach
ed the immense sum of $18,5O4.SO.
The question is sometimes asked,
"Has it proved a profitable invest
ment for the state?" The answer
is in the affirmative and should be
as positive and emphatic as it is pos
sible to express it. There is abso-
lutely no question about it. The in
vestment has paid handsomely in
many ways. 1t is impossible to es-
innate the good accomplished through
the medium of the State Fair in up
building agriculture and it's kindred
industry, stock-raising, not in Mon
tana alone but in the adjoining
states.
Secretary Skinner is right. 1t is
impossible to estimate the influence
for good the fair has exerted in de-
veloping the resources of the state.
1t is impossible to measure the value
of the fair in educating individuals
along better methods of production.
Profits are to be desired in all busi-
ness transactions, but there are some
things better than money, useful
though that commodity is, and it is
through these other things that the
people Of Montana have reaped the
richest profit from their investment
in the Montana State Fair and Ex-
position.

workers are conclusions set forth in
Public Health Bulletin No. 76, con-
tanning the results of a study of
''Health Inaurance-Its, Relation to
the Public HEALTH" just issued by
the United States Public Health Ser
vice.
The preventive value of health in
surance is given especial emphasis in
this study. "Any sytem of health
insurance for the United States or
any state should at it's inception have
prevention of sickness as one Of it's
fundamental purposes" says the bull
letin. "This country should profit
by the Experience of European coun-
tries where prevention is being recog-
nized as the central idea necessary to
health insurance if health insurance is
to attain it's greatest success in i'm
,roving the health and efficiency of
the industrial population"
Such system, it is pointed out in
the bulletin, would
l. Provide cash benefits and med
ical service for all wage-earners in
times of sickness at much less cost
than is now possible. Adequate med
ical relief would thus be placed with
in the reach of even the lowest paid
workers who are most subject to ill
health.
2. Distribute the cost among en-
ployers, employees, and the public as
the groups responsible for disease
causing conditions and afford these
groups definite financial incentive
for removing these conditions. This
can be done by means of small weekly
payments from employees, supple
mented by proportionate contribu-
tions from employers and government
at a rate reducible in proportion to
the reduction of sickness.
8. Become an effective health
measure by linking the cooperative
efforts of the three responsible groups
with the work of National, State and
local health agencies, and by utiliz-
ing these agencies in the administra-
ton of the health insurance system.
4. Afford better basis for the CO.
operation of the medical profession
with public health agencies.
5. Eliminate the elements of pat
ernalism and charity-giving by max
ing employees and the public, as well
as employers, joint agents in the con-
troll of this fund.
"a governmental system of health
insurance" concludes the study, "can
be adapted to American conditions
and when adapted will prove to be a
health measure of extraordinary val
ue."

his bill and finally the legislature re-
sponded.
Hardly had the bill became a law
before the legislature passed a two
cent passenger fare measure. Gov
ernor Hughes vetoed it on the ground
that legislature shoud not deal ar
bitrarily with matters requiring inves-
tigation, particularly when it had
lust provided machinery for investi-
eating such matters and granted
power to relieve situation as justice
and reason might demand. He also
succeeded in having measure against
race track betting enacted resulting in
the closing of important tracks in
New York.
Appointed by Taft.
With the record of his first term be-
hind him, Governor Hughes was con-
sidered prceminently for the kepubli-
can presidential nomination in 1908.
President Roosevelt threw his power
in favor of his secretary of War Will
liam H. Taft, and Governor Hughes
instead, was renoninated for governor
and reelected. 1t was during his Sec
ond term in 1910. that President Taft
appointed him to the supreme court
bench.
AS member of the court his depth
of comprehension and his faculty for
concise statement led to his selection
by the chief justice in even the first
wear of his service to write the ma
iority of the most important decisions
rendered by the court. Among these
were the so-called state rate cases,
the pure food law decision and the
Virginia and West Virginia debt case.
Hughes was married in New York
City December S, 1888, to Antoinette,
daughter of Walter S. Carter and had
four children, Charles Evans Hughes,
Jr., Helen, Catherine and Elizabeth
Hughes.
He was for several years president
of the Brown University club of New
York, trustee of Brown university
and trustee of the Fifth avenue
Baptist church in Tew York.
He is a member of the Lawyers Re-
publican, University, Union League
and Cornell University clubs, and the
American, New York and New York
City Bar associations.
