At the moment, with the adver- Using campaign at its height for the Lenten season, there is an in- clination toward hopetulness for some relief from the inventory sit uation.
 But, what the majority of cooper ating units in the industry wanted to know yesterday is whether the failure of one group to submit in ventory figures is going to mean a division within the industry itself on that type of cooperation, or whether it represents merely. mo- mentary reluctance that will be quickly adjusted.

Salmon Group Is Withholding
 Stock Figures

Failure of an important packing group to disclose the extent Of its unsold stocks brought nervousness into salmon packing and brokerage circles yesterday says Fred Nien- dorff, financial editor of the Seat tie Post -Intelligencer of March 10.
 Refusal of the group to partici- pate in the monthly statistical re- port on the industry's inventory position became known for the first time with release of the Associa- tion of Pacific Fisheries month-end statement showing stocks on hand February 28
 To the amazement of the trade this disclosed stocks on hand had dwindled from 3,839,192 cases at cal year beginning July l, 1887. cases, indicating a purported move ment of 100000 to market--a quantity far out of line with all reasonable expectations.
 Trade MyStitted
 Best estimates place the Febru- ary movement around 100000 cases
 The mystery was partly cleared in a footnote explaining that only 83 per cent of the pack was repre- sentated compared with 99 per cent during the past few years.
 Calls at the association office brought tn explanation that "a group of packers had not submit ted their figures"
 The omission is significant to the trade in more than one direction.
 First, it has not happened before and raises the question: Why, now?
 The associations monthly reports long have been considered by the trade as an important index to current marketing conditions and have been factor in determining action for the good of 1 the industry as a whole
 To some extent they have been a guide in determining the industry's advertising plans.
 The question packers and brck- PTS were asking was: !
 Does this mea > the beginning of a breakdown in the industry's cooperative action fer the industry's yood?"
 They hoped not
 Secondly, it was pointed out that he refusal of the withholding group 0 submit their figures follows a in prices early this month, when pinks were cut from 'l.25 to $1.l5 and chums from Sl.l5 0 S1O5.
 The, general markdown was pre- ;ipitated by so-called nervous fringe 'ellers who, it was reported had 'een moving out stocks under the established quotations, thereby fore ng general acceptance of the low 1T price levels.
 Gro0tng Demand Secn
 Fundamentally. of course. mar ,et conditions dictated the mark town. Faced with the prospect of leavy consumer demand as q re- ult of an intensive national adyer- ising campaign, packers and brok- ITS hoped to reStock wholesale and 'etail shelves.
 Buying had been and still is on land-to-mouth basis in ultimate 'utlets, and the industry has gone 'n from month to month with grow ng fears of heavy carryover into ne new pack starting in July.

 Here's how the British health in- sura1ce system works as now con- stituted:
 The plan is practically compul- sory for all workers with incomes of less than 250 pounds (about $1250O per .ear. he cash side of the plan is administered by approved soci- eties," some of which are mutual benefit societies organized prior to insurance.
 In the c.se of males, the worker and employer each pays about cents weekly; the woman worker pays 8 cents and her employer g cents weekly.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-08-02

While the American Medical asso- ciation is busy fighting proposals for an $s5, 100000 federal health pro- gram, the British Medical associa- tion, representing 37000 qualified professional men, has begun an ad- vertising campaign to extend the existing system still further.
 Very nearly every argument now being urged against socialized medi- cine in the United States was voiced here long ago. Having had opportu- nifty to view first-hand the workings of state health insurance, British physicians generally believe that the system is working well. At a court of inquiry set up by the ministry of health to investigate the fees which should 90 to so-called panel doc tors", the Insurance Acts committee of the B. M. A. reported:
 "In the committees view, the Na- tional Health Insurance system, pro- viding as 1t does for free choice of doctor and patient and eliminating direct payment to the doctor at the time of sickness, is the best means of providing medical attendance and treatment for the lower paid work CTS Of the country"
 Dr L. Haden Guest, traveller, au- thor, and member of the house of commons, who was once panel doctor, takes issue with any state ment that the British system has resulted in depreciation Of the qual- ity of medical care.

 Now, the B. M. A. is going still further. It wants the law revised. so as to extend the benefits of health insurance to all members of a work CTS family-instead of only to the worker as at present.

SENATOR BACKS
 THIRD TERM MOVE

Atlantic City, N. J., August 2. - (UP) Senator William H. Smathers. Democrat, N. J.. became the first senator to recommend Q third term for President Roosevelt today. He told several hundred local Democrats at testimonial dinner last night: T have but one political ambition left. That is to help elect President Roosevelt for a third term. I want him to seek third term because there is no one big enough and strong enough to carry on for him should he step aside.
 "The conservative and reactionary forces of both parties are already in a huddle. They hope to control the Democratic National Convention by putting forth Vice-President Garner. I do not believe that the vice-president will permit his name to be used in a scheme to scrap the humane progress of the New Deal and turn the government over again to the interests. The Pres- ident's decision to seek a third term will once and for all put an end to this reactionary scheming."
