FOREIGN LANGUAGE
PRESS LOYAL.

The foreign language newspapers of
this country are a mystery to most
natives. And largely because their
contents and character are unsnown,
they are suspected and feared. The
New York World has had a careful
more than 1000 in all, said to have
from 100000 to 100000 readers.
And II announces that 1t has found the
great majority of them not only loyal
to the United States, but good teach
ers OF Americanism.
The German press, of course, has
been severely critical of our govern
ment, and its most radical represen-
tatives have gone to lamentable ex-
tremes in supporting Germany and
Austria in our controversies with
those countries. But many German
papers have made explicit declarations
that in case of trouble they will be
found taking sides against the Father
land, and presumably the big majority
would do likewise IL the test came.
Newspapers of other languages are
almost unanimous in their support OF
our government policies and our ma,
tional attitude: Some of them con.
denim the export of munitions, and yet
leave no doubt as to their sincere 10y.
atty.
This seemingly alien press, so pc.
tent for good or evil. is really part
OF the great melting pot" helping the
immigrant to an intelligent under.
standing of American institutions and
ideals.

HEALTH
INSURANCE.

DR.. Otto ". Huffman, secretary OF
the New York State Medical Board,
speaking before the Federation OF
State Medical Boards in convention at
Chicago, urged compulsory sickness
insurance administered by the Federal
Government. \
Dr. Huffman's argument was that
there were not too many physicians,
as most laymen think, to care properly
for the health OF all citizens. About
two and half percent OF the popula.
ton Is constantly sick, an average of
nineteen patients day for ali the
$4,000 active practitioners. And yet
the average income OF these doctors is
only $500 year. DE-, Huffman urged
a tax Of 81 per year on all workers
whose annual income is less than
$1,000. Each would have the privilege
OF selecting his own doctor, but no
physician would be allowed to have
more than 1000 patients.
The plan as proposed sounds rather
fantastic, but II has elements of good
sense. II would eventually tend 10
check the entrance OF too many doc
tors into the profession. And ~ would
