GREENDALE HEALTH PROBLEMS


capped. Greendale citizens have appointed Medical
Committee. looking toward the formation Of cooper
ative medical plan. This committee has met twice
Medical Society Milwaukee County .but
reoeived the cooperation given by the local
ical society to our Greenbe1t plan.
a letter Greendale Medical
nittees the Medical Society Of Milwaukee County says:
"Any proposal to give Greendale residents good
medical at cost with their will have
sincere support and cooperation. Families liv-
ing In Greendale restricted to those whose in
falls between $1,000 and $1,000. the resi-
dents neither wealthy poors but with
the majority Of Wisconsin residents. Tt is general
1y conceded that the citizen is able pay
for all binary illnesses; that not than 1o%
suffer suoh unusual sickness that they pay
for medical care. Hence problem is to provide
medical 1o% find difficult to
pay the costs of extraordinary illness.
with these thoughts In mind. the following
oomenda ons are made:
First Patients permitted free choice Of
physicians.
Second The plan should be limited to Greendale
residents for trial period of one year. Only in
this way definite figures be obtained from the
experiment.
Third The plan should protect patients only
from the cost of extraordinary illness. Patients
should be expected to pay personally for the
OF all sickness up to an amount agreed upon.
Fourth The plan should be based upon
actuarial figures obtainable.
Fifth Legal counsel should insure that details
comply with the laws"
The Greendale Medical Committee answered the Lett
ter in the following
'Yor proposal contenplates of only catas-
trophic illnesses. This plan does not provide ade-
quate care cost within reach of our

I've appreciate that we are still far apart in our
thinking but to sit with your

that a plan Of comprehensive medical is feas-

In order to better accommodate
travel occasdoned by the New York
Wbrld's Fair, a new double-daily thru
sleeping car service between New
Orleans and New York is announced
jointly by the Illinois Central and
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroads.
The schedule provides for cary
morning and early evening arrivals
as well as convenient departure times
to and from both cities. This double
daily through service brings al ad-
daily through service to such inter-
mediate points as Jackson, Miss, Mem
phis, Paducah, Louisville, Cincinnati
Washington, Baltimore and Philadel-
phia.
An unique feature of the. new se--
vice is hat it is also possible to make
a continuous trip between New York
and Los Angeles with only a car-to-
car transfer. This offers virtually
a through Southern rail route be-
tween the East and the West.
