Health insurance Results,
.By Dr. John w. Dakc

state Commissioner of HEALTH
There has been a widespread inter.
est recently m ;hc subject Of health
insurance and a growing appreciation
of It's benefits Nevertheless many
even of the advocates of the plan do
not fully appreciate that it, greatest
benefits are likely to be indirect. rath.
er than direct Through ncalth In
surmce workers generally will be
cared for in cases of illness. This
will be both a social and economic ad.
vantage, but a total experience has
demonstrated that the greatest bonc.
its accruing from health insurance do
not come from taking care Of people
after they become sick so much as
they do by preventing illness,
Health insurance had been tried
out on very large scale and for q
period Of years in Germany before the
war Il had also been elaborately
worked out in England, although the
English plan came into operation later
than the German. In both these coun
tries It was found that health insur.
ancc resulted after a time in much
better health. much less illness among
workers, II is only natural that this
should be the case. The expenses OF
health insurance are paid by contri
buttons from the employer. the ON
ploye and the state or course the
amount Of these contributions will be
dependent on the amount OF illness
among employees. II sickness and M
health increase the total o. the con
tributions will mount up II they de
crease, so will the payments to b,
assessed II Is obviously TO the ad
vantage Of all concerned to have
hcalthtul conditions In factories ard
other working places. II Is alway.

than to recover Il after illness has SCI
lin. Under health insuranc, period,

Powers Of Health Authorities.
Both. courts and public sentiment
generally have displayed marked
tendency IN recent years to increase
the powers of health authorities. There
is a growing realization OF the face
that these powers are used in the in
terests Of the public and that 1t Is
right they should have the preference
over private or corporate interests.
A remarkable instances of this has
lust been displayed in a decision OF
the New York supreme court to the
effect that city has the right to in
sist on a blood test for typhoid carriers
being made in the case of mikmen.
It has long been recognized by medi
cal authorities that carriers play a
large part in the spread Of typhoid
and that milk unless properly handled
may be a source Of danger. In the eff
fort 10 eliminate typhoid the city Of
Rochester at the instance of the health
department passed an ordinance re-
qurihg that all mi,kmen should sub.
nit to a blood test as possible typhoid
carriers There was some opposition
to this ordinance, a test case was
made and the supreme coIrt upheld
The right OF the city to max, such al
ordinance # /, seemed required tor the
protection of public health.
