Emergency cases are given full
and complete care regardless of
social and economic status. Rou-
tine investigation determines the
status of the emergency case.
When the condition of the sick or
injured emergency case forbids dis
turbance incident to transfer. the
patient is cared for as full pay
case, the private physician on the
case always having the decision as
to when and where the patient may
be transferred.
All non-indigent emergency
cases are attended by private
physicians whenever possible or
feasible. Private doctors are also
called on state industrial insurance

The determination of what con-

The Tigers were not alert on Rip

Campbell would have caught the

turned against the Republican party
which had been in power when the
debacle took place.
The Republican leaders here say
that if they can hold the Roosevelt
lead in Los Angeles County down
to 100000, they will surely carry
the State. They believe they will
carry other counties in the South
and that they will score heavily in
the rural sections and small towns.
Los Angeles County went for Roose-
welt in 1886 by 100000 votes.
California has the only living
former President of the United
States, Herbert Hoover, Repub-
lican. Yet practically nothing is
heard here of Mr.. Hoover during
this campaign. He is, it is said,
quietly doing considerable construc-
tive work for the party. He has
many friends in the State, and they
are lining up for the ticket.
Negro Vote Troubles G. o. p.
The Republicans are worried over
the Negro vote, as we'll as the vote
of labor. The colored voters consti-
tute a very considerable bloc, and
while some have been won away
from Mr.. Roosevelt the majority
is believed to be still strong for
the President
In their effort to turn the tide
to M Willkie the Republicans are
streSSing the fact that the New
Deal has failed to provide jobs for
huge number of potential work
e-s and that many others have
been given Only w. P. A. jobs.
They are making as much as they
can of the third term issue, and
more recently they have attacked
in every way they could the COM
missioning of Elliott Roosevelt, son
of the President, Of draft age, as a
captain in the Army. They believe
they have an ace in the hole, too
in Senator Hiram johnson, the
most popular figure in the State,
who was attacked by the President
not long ago and who is now ex-
pected to come out for Mr.. Willkie.
