~ tiiC hcsOSihtCu Tl0oS,
The Federal Government will spend
more than $l35,OOOOO0 during the
coming year in the largest national
health program in history.
When the National Health Confer
ence last week debated at great length
the question Of whether the Govern
ment should appropriate Federal
funds for medical care, Federal Off
cials asserted that such arguments
were academic philosophizing" since
the Government rs already up to its
ears" in providing medical care.
Scattered through half dozen de-
partments and independent organiza-
tions are bureaus which are directly
administering the use of the $135,OO0,-
900 medical aid fund. These agen-
cies, one official pointed out, already
are doing what medical authorities
have fought most vigorously-direct-
ing and supervising the practice of
medicine.
Objection to such supervision was
one of the chief points raised last
week by representatives of the Amer
ican Medical Association in opposing
proposal to provide $780, 900
from the Treasury to supply medical
care for those too poor to afford it.
Will Go to Congress.
A new $3.50. 900 900 national health
program probably will be submitted to
the 1889 Congress. and ~ was ex-
pected that the medical association
will insist that use of any funds ap-
propriated be left to the decision Of
physicians in local communities.
However, it was pointed out, the
Veterans Administration will spend
approximately $93,0OOOOO during the
coming year for the maintenance of
hospitals and payment of physicians,
nurses and administrative personnel
to furnish medical care for World War
veterans
The United States Public Health
Service has available approximately
$33 ,562 900 for the study and treat

SOCIAL MEDICINE
IS SEEN GAINING
Benefits Go to the Public,
No Matter Which Side
Wins Battle.
By HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE,


NEW YORK, July 3O-John Oay-
mani Citizen. whose secret ambition
is to advise the doctor, has some of
his hopes realized.
He was placed in this cherished
position at the first National Health
Conference in Washington. He was
put there by the Presidents Inter-
departmental Committee to co-ordi-
nate health and welfare activities
and-to the surprise of some people
by the Committee of Physicians,
small but potent group in organized
medicine.
1t was proposed to spend $3.50, ,O00,-
900 a year on public health and to
help pay Mr.. Citizens doctor bills.
In this way the issue of social medi-
cine" was placed before the country
offlcially, for the first time. The
next mentioned move is discussion in
Congress.
The setting in which this issue will
be debated has all the aspects of a
booking match" for charity. Who
ever wins the contest, and it looms
as one Of the great social battles of
this century, the principals on both
sides agree that the benefits 60 to the
public. They don't agreeson how much
the profits will be.
Benefits Proposed.
These benefits as proposed by the
Presidents committee are four.
One: Need to improve the insult
f1cient preventive health service for
Nation as a whole.
Two: Better hospital service, espe-
cially for those. who cannot pay
costs Of the care they need.
Three: Medical service for one-thrd
OF the population receiving made
Quate or no medical care
Four: Attention to needs of the
larger fraction Of the population suf-
fering from economic burdens created
by illness.
Physicians, labor representatives,
social workers, and law delegates
agreed on these needs The differ
ence of opinion was over how much
benefit Mr.. Citizen would have after
the social medicine gate" is dis
tributed.
Proponents of the Government S
side visioned great gains in health
Dr. Martha NJ. Eliot assistant chief
OF the Childrens Bureau, said for
example. 10000 lives can be saved
annually under the plan. Organized
medicine suggested that if the po-
tential benefits are not carefully
handled the public might come out
with little gain and many losses.
Issue Is Crystalized.
In the contest there are four fac
tors.
First is the President. credited with
crystallizing the issue. For more than
year there have been confidential
whispers that the White House was
preparing a program" These ru-
n1ors started after Esther Lape,
friend of Mrs. Roosevelt. made the
American Foundation report studies
on medical care and needs. The
health conference is accepted as the
long awaited administration move.
The second factor also grew out of
the American Foundation report. 1t
Is the Committee Of Physicians on the
Improvement Of Medical Care. Origin
ally known as the COMMITTEE of 430."

CAPT. JABEZ GHOLSTON
TO WE'D U. S. EMPLOYE

Marriage to Miss shefiield to Take
Place Today at Home Of
Edward s. CLAWS
Capt. Jabez Gideon Gholston, con.
strucsion engineer with the Public
Works Administration, and Miss Arie
Eugenia Shef1eld, who formerly served
four years with p. w. A., are to be
married at 4:30 pm. today.
The wedding will take place at
Oak Knoll, the nearby Virginia coun-
try home Of Edward 8. CLAWS, brother
of Louis r. CLAWS, formerly secre-
tary Ickes' chief investigating agent.
Capt. Gholston has Travelled in South
and Central America for IA years
as an engineer. He came into the
public eye last year when Secretary
Ickes suspended him for "over-zeal-
business" in lobbying at the Capitol for
the bill extending the life Of the P.
w. A. His restoration was ordered
later.
Miss Shefield now is secretary to

it formulated principles and proposals
for use Of tax funds to relieve the
INDECENT and other medical inade-
quacies. The committee now numbers
$40 Of the 10000 members of the
American Medical Association. But
these few are prominent, many in in
fluential places.
The committee, meeting after the
Washington conference, formally rec
ogni7ed the widespread demand from
the public for improvement of pres
ent conditions" The committee wishes
to keep administration Of medicine in
the hands of physicians, maintain the
quality of medical care and to use tax
money to give their care wider dis
tribution.
Dangers Of Political Control.
The third factor, the American
Medical Association, as represented by
its Board of Trustees, wishes to main
tain medical administrative control
and existing high standards the same
as the Committee of Physicians. But
the A. M. A. leaders say there are dam
gers of political control, of breaking
down the freedom of a citizen to
choose his physician and impairing
the helpful relations of doctor and pa
tient. Thousands Of jobs are neces-
sarily involved in tax-paid expansion
program.
With warnings of problems, and
even dangers ahead, DR.. Irving Abel
Of Louisville, president of the A. M. A.,
promised 'whole-hearted co-opera-
tion." His association has a national
survey of its own under way.
The fourth factor is the public,
whose representatives attended the
conference. Their share in the speak
ing was largely to point out examples
OF specific inadequate medical treat
ment among their constituents.
The struggles of social medicine
have already been before the govern
ments or public of II European coun-
tries They have been mostly health
insurance, either compulsory or volun-
tary, and state aid in medical care
of the poor.
Although Social medicine" has not
been an issue in the United States, in
actual fact it is nothing new here.
The United States Public Health Serv-
ice National Syphilis campaign is one
OF the biggest social" wedges vet
driven in this direction. Mental cases
have long been State aided. Preventa-
tive medicine through social means
Is an accepted American principle.
The American Medical Association
itself has on file records of about 200
plans started by medical groups to try
to meet the costs of sickness. Mostly
in this country the social steps in
medicine have been voluntary. The
expressed medical fears of permitting
the State to enter center around the
possibility of politics in saving life.
The one big change has been the
official entry of organized medicine
into the consideration of a program
Of magnificent spending on national
scale. Heretofore the physicians have
declared readiness to cooperate when
called upon. This is the first call,

funds to States, counties and local
communities for the improvement of
all phases Of health. A similar method
Of distribution for the proposed $780,

proposed.
The Governments health program
also will include expenditure of So
100000 in direct attack on syphilis
and eonorrhea in which local physi-
clans will be furnished drugs and be
paid from Government funds for treat
ing these diseases.
Meanwhile. plans were being made
by the National Cancer Control Com
mittee to spend 100000 yearly in an
effort to control cancer and deter
mine its cause.

EAGLES SPORTS
EXPANSION SEEN
B 0 0 N TO D. C.
BY CHICK KENNY

Decision whereby American
University expects to broaden its
scope in the intercollegiate sports
world beginning in the fall, may
do much to advance closer to the
ultimate end of a District of Co
lumbia college athletic league.
Long in the background of the
local college sports picture. the
Eagles have come along slowly,
working out sane policy of ad-
vancement, until now they have
acquired the friendly relations
with each of the athletic depart
ments in this territory. With
baseball added to the sports cur.
ricula for next year. it is believed
that American University may
open negotiations with Maryland
and Georgetown. the only other
schools here to support the dia-
mond game. In 1910 George
Washington will place in the var
sity field baseball team, the re-
suit of a froSh nine which Is IN
the budget for next season.
American U. made its first bid
to major proportions when 1t con-
tracted for basketball games with
Catholic U. last season and imme-
diately followed this through with
a football game. At the same time
the Eagles clinched basketball
tilt this winter with Georgetown
AS vet floor games for next year
with the Cardinals of Brookland
have yet to be arranged, but this
is simply a matter of calling Du,
pont 4181 and asking for Dutch
Bergman. For a while it was be-
lieved C. U. and American would
fail to tie up in basketball IN
1899, because of a misunderstood
ing between the players OF both
quintets that cropped up in the
second game last year. But when
it was learned that the officials
who handled the game were at
fault, the athletic heads of both
schools decided to patch up theil
differences and let it go at that.
Just what arrangements have
been made in regard to the pro
motion of the remaining sports
on the program is not known at
this time. save for track, and OF
course, baseball.
According to the information at
hand, the Eagles first baseball
team will be coached by Staff Cas-
sci, backfield coach of the football
team and chief mentor of the
basketball team. AS for track, a
total outlay of $500 has been
budgeted for the construction of q
quarter-mile track and the pur
chase of equipment. American is
member of the Mason and Dixon
Track Conference, but, since its
entrance into the loop, has beer
handicapped by the lack of q
track for practice and the equip
ment for field events.

a member of the famous all-night
society that hangs around Lindy's
in New York and Abe has been
watching them come and go for
more than 25 years.
Abe" We asked yesterday in
his dressing room at Loew'S
Capitol, whom do you like in
this welterweight fight? We
understand you have seen both
Ross and Armstrong many times
and when and if they do meet,
you should have some idea about
who's going to win"
Abe parked his big, black cigar
and went to work on Armstrong
THAT Armstrong" Lyman said,
'is ordinary. But mean ORDI-
NARY. He's beaten a lot of
buns but wait until he goes in
there against Ross.
Ross is terrific; he's colossal;
he's a great champion. give
Armstrong five or six rounds
then boom! The Long Island
Bowl will fall on his ears. Did
you ever see Armstrong? I've
seen him IL times. He's ordinary,
but ORDINARY, I tell you"
ROSS NO SUCKER
Abe got up and almost gave Ray
Bell pneumonia with a right swing.
He weaved, he ducked.
"See," he said. Armstrong
throws them wide. Like this.
A right hand almost decapi-
tated Phil Lampkin who was
minding his own business.
Armstrong throws them wide.
see?" Lyman continued. His
slim shanks did a fast fandango
around the dressing room. Now
Ross won't make the mistake of
getting hit by a sucker punch.
So Armstrong throws them
wide. Dc you think Ross is go
ing to step back? No. He'll
move inside. He'll step this
way. He'll step that way. He
won't be sucker enough to
