AEELTa INSURANCE.

Plat1iof Measure to Be introduced In
State Legislatures.
Rodent reports by the United States
publi, health service, the commission
on Industrial relations and the federal
department of labor, all indicating
enormous suffering and economic loss
among wage earners on account OF
sickness, have stimulated keen interest
in health Insurance legislation. The
Wisconsin Federation Of Labor at its
recent annual convention voted to con-
duct a vigorous legislative campaign
next winter, and the American Asso-
citation for Labor Legislation Is out
with model bill which 1t announces
win be introduced into more than twen-
ty state legislatures next January.
At the University of Wisconsin this
year the joint debate was fought out
on the issues involved In compulsory
health insurance, with an almost unan-
imous decision of the judges in its
favor. One of the recent graduates,
Mr.. Louis Bloch, prepared plan for
the introduction of health insurance
in Wisconsin, which was accepted by
the faculty as thesis for the academic
degree. Mr.. Bloch's proposal is similar
to the plan worked out with great care
and published from the New York
headquarters by the American Asso-
citation For Labor Legislation, of whose
staff Mr.. Bloch is now member.
Briefly stated, the model bill of the
association provides universal insur-
ance against sickness for all manual
workers and all others earning less
than 500 month. Benefits include
medical treatment and medicines, as
well as cash compensation equal to
two-thirds of wages during sickness,
but NOT to exceed twenty-s1x weeks In
any one year. There is also burial
benefit of $50. Contributions are to be
paid in equal amounts by employers
and employees, and the state will add
one-fourth to the total as its share and
will supervise the funds which are to
be mutually managed. Careful stu
dents of the subject declare this plan
will result in "health first" move"
ment equal in Importance to tho
safety first campaign which follow
ed the enactment Of workmen's COM
pensation laws.
California and Massachusetts have
official commissions which are now
preparing reports on health insurance
for their legislatures. and close OBJ
servers predict there viii be pioneer
legislation on this subject In q nun
ber OF states In 1877.

EIGHT HOUR DAY BENEFIT.

Testimony of an Employer az TO the
Value Of Lsssenina Hours.
No more striking example of the en-
ployers' new attitude toward the eight
hour day can be found than letter
from George f. johnson Of Endicott,
Johnson & Co., of Endicott, N. Y, says
a writer In the Survey. Twelve thou,
sand employees affected by this reduc-
ton to eight hours on Nov. /, 1915,
held a great eight hour parade in cele-
bration.
Mr.. Johnson writes: "Our purpose in
establishing the eight hour day was to
make proper recognition Of the fact
that In a prosperous business like ours
the more people participating In the
prosperity the greater the benefit of
same. AS our business has grown
and prospered we have recognized this
principle: All of the workers should
share In the prosperity.
eve have no theories about the eight
hour day. Never have had. We think
the eight hour day has arrived We
think It is mistake for employers Of
labor to dispute it. We agree with
the president, Society has set Its seal
of approval upon the eight hour day.
The sooner 1t is recognized universally
ESQ far as possible) the better for all
concerned and the sooner the proper
adjustment can be made.
$50 far as we are concerned, It was
the greatest pleasure in our lives to
grant the eight hour day voluntarily,
without reduction in wage, and we sim
cerely hope that 1t may be made pos
sible for us to still further improve,
constantly, the working conditions, and
the wage Of all our working partners.
Finally, to sum up, it was simply
our honest desire to improve conditions
and increase the wage Of the people In
our employ, just as fast as we feel safe
in doing it. Meaning, of course, that
we must meet competitive conditions,
and safeguard the business always.
What It is possible for concern to do,
who are noncompetitive, may not be
possible for us to do, but we shall, as
above stated, keep constantly before us
the wish and the fervent hope that we
may improve conditions for all, with a
proper regard for the rights of the con-
sumer."
There indeed Is the new spirit In In
dustry. 1t sums up feeling Of which
one catches glimpses in many indus
tries and many states from the Allan
tic to the Pacific. 1t gives in more de-
tail the general principle, "The time
has come for the eight hour day, and
It ts long enough for any one to work. +"

"The country" says he, sis overrun
