FEDERAL GROUP
NEARS ACCORD
WITH DOCTORS
Health Plan Details to
Be Worked Out

Members of what have been con-
sidered opposing schools Of
thought-the American Medical
Association and the Federal Gov
ernment's Inter Departmental
Committee-were virtually agreed
today on a program for launching
a proposed expenditure Of $3.50, ,000,.
600 for a nationwide health pro-
gram.
Differing only on one phase Of
the Governments suggestion that
health insurance be compulsory,
physicians representing the medi-
cal society and the Federal group
hope to present unified plan to
the next session of Congress on
means of combating sickness
among the poor, according to Miss
Roche, head of the inter-depart-
mental committee.
TO REPORT TO F. d.
The accord was reached at a
closed conference yesterday at the
Department of Labor. Points of
difference are expected to be
ironed cut at later meetings and
a complete report given to Presi
dent Roosevelt.
Representatives of the American
Medical Association, which has al
ways opposed compulsory health
insurance, base their arguments
against it on the ground that the
problem Lies in the field of social
economics" it was stated after
yesterdays all-day session by DR..
Irwin Abel, president of the
physicians organization.
FIVE POINTS TAKEN UP
DR.. Abel declared his group
approves in general Of five points
discussed. They are:
/. Expansion of workmen's
compensation laws.
2. Use of State and Federal
funds for protecting health of
the poor.
8. Creation of a new Federal
agency, the Depal tment OF
Health.
4. Increase of service by pub
lie health and agencies helping
children and mothers.
S. Better utilization of exist
ing facilities for disqualification.
The latter represents a change
from the original governmental
demand for increased facilities.
Both sides were in harmony. how
ever, on the principle of providing
one standard of medical care, the
same for rich and poor alike.
THOSE AT PARLEY
Another conference will be held
within few weeks to remove the
snags in the details of the multi
million-dollar program.
Among those attending yeSter-
day were Surgeon General Thomas
Parran and, besides DR.. Ahell, nine
members of the A. M. A. House
of Delegates, DrS. Henry A. Luce,
of Detroit; Frederic E. Sondern,
Of New York; Walter p. Donald
son, Of Pittsburgh; Fred w. Ran
kin, of Lexington, KY; Walter E.

STATES HAY CROP
MAY SET A RECORD
Daily Dispatch Bureau,

Raleigh July 18.-North Carolina's
farmers will this summer make more
hay while the sun shines than ever
before, if estimates of the State and
Federal Departments of Agriculture
materialize.
Prospects as of July were for the
greatest crop in the States history,
the crop reporting services forecast.
Setting an all-time record, grow
ers have planted 1,O28,0OO acres of
hay this year, six per cent increase
over the 1887 crop, which amounted
to $4,000 acres.
Growing conditions this year have
been almost ideal, according to w.
H. Rhodes, the State Department of
Agriculture's chief statistician, and if
there is no setback between now and
cutting time the 1888 crop will likely
exceed the 1887 by some $4,000 tons,
he predicts.
"The July 1 crop survey indicates
a hay production of $4,000 tons, with
an average yield of .85 ton per acre, }"

great deal to say about the measles
outbreak, but it is known that they
anticipated a sharp decline both IN
cases and deaths as soon as school
ended, as the close association of chill
dren in the class rooms is particular
ly favorable to spread Of the disease.
But while measles deaths declined
sharply in June, there was no let-up
in the deaths from whooping cough,
which has also been prevalent in
something like epidemic form. Las.
month there were 80 whooping cough
deaths, one more than in May, and
six above last JuneS 26.
Total whooping cough deaths for
the first six months of 1898 was 124,
exactly twice as many as in the cor
responding period of 1897 when there
were GO such deaths. Through June,
1886 showed only Is whooping cough

Daily Dispatch Bureau,

Raleigh, July 18.-End of the 1878
school term apparently was the be-
ginning of the end for the measles
epidemic which has ragged in North
Carolina during the first half of 1888.
At least, vital statistics for June
showed only "a deaths from the
disease, less than one-half of the num-
Der of victims in May, when high
of 81 was touched after a steadily in
creasing number of deaths each
month of the year.
January had 16 deaths, the first
month to show a startling prevalence
of measles in serious form. Decem-
Der. 1897 had had but deaths and
November only 2.
There the deaths have jump
ed to 81 in February 48 in March, IS
in April and 81 in May; which with

said Mr.. Rhodes This production, if
realized, will be greater by $4,000 tons
than that harvested last year, al
though the yield per acre in prospect
is about the same as in 1887.
"Iast month was ideal for the
growth of all grasses and grass type
crops, as abundance of moisture is
most favorable factor in it's develop
;nent.
"The condition of pastures as of
July 1, averaging 90 per cent of nor

provement of eight per cent over pas
ture conditions a month previous to
that date, and was ten per cent above
