General health Insurance is q social
essential In Europe. Liberals and rad
icals consider 1t a part of the alphabet
of readjustment. The British labor
party incorporated 1t in its wide pro-
gram Of fundamental change. An in
ternational conference of labor lead
ers held at Leeds during the second
year of the war termed it one of the
essentials Of the new social order.
In previous years health insurance
has been combated in this country by
labor unions and other interests. The
unions felt that their appeal would
ance. They took the same position
concerning an eight-hOur day by law.
They wanted the shorter working day,
but they thought that they must win
1t by industrial struggle rather than
by legislation. There Is reason to sur
mise that the opinion of organized la
Dor and some of the other groups hith-
erto hostile to health insurance Is now
shifting. Soon, perhaps, in many
states the reform will be accepted as
a matter of course.
Labor federations In California,
New Jersey and Wisconsin, as well as
the New Workers, now back the health
insurance. The New Workers. more
over, said openly that they regarded
the movement of equal benefit to en-
1ln duo Nd
Bates of the New York State Fedora
ton Of Labor is quoted:
Health insurance, mutually man
aged and mutually supported at ac-
tual cost, under the supervision Of the
state, will be-even more than work
mems compensation is-a benefit to the
employees, and we do not hesitate to
add that If employers will show a spir-
1t of cooperation health insurance will
soon be recognized as equally bene-
fcial to industry. We believe, further
more, that most friction resulting in
open hostility between workmen and
their employers might be removed at
the source If there were more just
such opportunities for workmen and
their employers to consult together
over such matters Of common interest
as the conservation Of the health and
efficiency of the workers"
So far health insurance has been
pursuing the route marked out by
workmen's compensation measures. AT
first these were fought both by labor
and by industry. After a time union
labor accepted this state accident in
surance as a cardinal element In It's
legislative creed. Then finally business
began to see the economy Of the sys-
tenn. At first 1t was written In op-
tional forms into the state laws. Final
ly legislators had the courage to make
it compulsory, and now the federal Su-
preme court has given its sanction to
compulsory state accident insurance,
completing the cycle.
The American Association for Labor
Legislation, which long was one Of
the hackers of the compensation move
ment, is now furthering the health In
surance campaign. John B. Andrews,
secretary of the association, speaks Of
the shockingly high percentage Of
draft reflections on account Of phys
ical disability as a revelation Of the
necessity Of some such system. he
we'll argues that not until general In
surance penalties Ill health will the
full energies of the state be directed
to the prevention Of disease.

SCISSOR as regular taxes, and to be
paid direct to the county trustee,
same as the school tax or poll tax,
neither or which questions a man
as to how many children he has
or how many teeth are located in
his gums. This single tax sys-
tenn might cause a cessation OF
the annual tomfoolery about
working the roads,
The Cameron Road Law is real
ly intended to get the people to
quit the woodworking farce, but
is rather an unWleldy and round
about way to do it.
The editor overseer forseeing
the difficulties in the way advises
the pay ment of the taxes direct
to the trustee-thus filling Mr..
Cameron's idea-and let the road
work go until they can be hired at
a proper living figure to do what
is required to be done with good
work under proper direction. 1t
is impossible to work a mob sat-
isfactorily with no tools or equip
ment.
