Worry over financial problems is it. self direct threat to good health.
 NO MAGIC NEEDED

No magic is needed to meet this problem. In several un1ons, and in scores of communities, the problem of adequate medical care for low income and medium-income groups has been met by organization of pre- payment plans for medical care, cor responding to the well-known hospi- talization plans.
 Such plans can do nothing, of course, when wages are too low to provide for the decent food and shel- ter needed as foundation for health. It is the job of organized labor to push wages up to the point where workers can be healthy.
 UP TO JOHN Q. UNIONIST
 But it would also seem to be the job of labor to make sure that workers can purchase medi- cal care at rate within their means, instead of being liable to crushing expenses for unex- pected illness. An essential flea. ture of any good health plan is preventive medicine, to avoid serious illness instead of merely treating it when it comes. It is also important that health plans cover the workers family, not merely the individual unionist.
 The medical profession, the employers and the government have all failed to meet the prob. lem of nation that is only half we'll. It looks like it is up to John Q. Unionist to get busy.

 ''EXORBITANT WAGES"
 Pegler criticizes the exorbitant wages demanded by labor unions for their members. Does he forget that even with these so-ca1led high wages the average worker just about exists and only a few can put away enough for rainy day? How often does if happen that a man puts aside a few thousand dollars and he thinks he is ln apparent safety when along comes seize of sickness and within the space of few months everythine he has saved and all he can borrow is spent for doctor bills. Is this rack. eteering?
 REQUIRED READING FOR
 PECLER
 l wonder if Pegler would take 2 day off and read some of inc ''Hearings'' before the Subcommit tee on Education and Labor of the United States Senate, Seventy-Fifth Congress, in connection with the ''La Toilette Committed Here he would read that hundreds of thousands of dollars of stock. holders money was squandered for riot guns, tear gas, black jacks and all kinds of equipment to fight the organizations of workers into trade unions. It is so easy to condemn the majority of the labor move. ment for the actions of few.
 Pegler, as see it, is the number one germ spreader of the National Association of Manufacturers and will eventually be found out as such.

l Remember
 By Richard E.. CrOskey
 Local 4O4 Cooks & Walters Union
IMPORTED SPEAKERS

I have participated in many pro- hibition campaigns but that Montana one was tops I think in the number of native and imported speakers they had in that state campaign. Money did not seem to be any object. There was plenty of it. The Bartenders Unions alone gave $5,000 to Clarence Darrow for thirteen speeches and the Cooks and Walters of Butte gave several thousand as much I was told as $10,O00 in one check.
 That union had a large member ship of high salaried and high grade men. It has the distinction of being the first union of culinary workers to establish an eight hour day. It was affiliated with the Western Labor Movement at that time as Local 2 It is now Local g of our Inter- national Union, and I may add, I had the pleasure of getting them to aflli- ate with our A. F. of L., and was made an honorary member of the union.
 THE FEMININE TOUCH
 Tim Daley, former General President of the Metal Polishers and Buffers, also of New York City and myself were told off as a team to address public meetings over the state. We travelled in style with our ad- vance man to bill the towns and make all arrangements for the meetings. We spoke forty-five minutes each and as we were addressing different audiences we could use the same talks and ar- range our speeches accordingly. And then, after all this fan fare, pyrotechnics and brass bands, we lost the election by over 3O,OOO votes, and the state went dry.
 However, it was the first year that the women had the vote in Montana and what they did to us was terrible to behold. It was ex- pected that Silver Bow County (Butte) would give us a 10000 wet majority and all we got was 4,OOO, with other counties in proportion. It was a debacle, a blitzkrieg.
 We'll, the whole nation went dry a few years later, and like humpty-dumpty, it came back again.

HOW ABOUT THE WOMEN?

''If young men are physically handicapped, is there any reason to believe that young women are in any different physical condi- ton? If the supposedly healthi- est age group has this many inn pairments, what must be the situation among those 35 and more who surely have an even greater accumulation of physical defects?
 ''Finally, and most important, what about our boys and girls under 21? Is it not necessary to assume that if health conditions remain unchanged, 43% of these young people, when they reach the age for army service, or for employment in factories and on farms or for motherhood, will be in the same condition as now exists among our draft re- jectees?"

Chance of a Lifetime

The hero of the story IS a pr9n- inent business man who had the bad luck to be bitten by a mad dog. He was rushed to the hospital for the PaSteur treatment.
 While the anti-rabies serum was being prepared, the attending plysi- clan noticed the patient was very busy making out a long list of names, and he asked:
 Are those the names of the people you wish to be notified if your con- dition should become serious?"
 "No," said the victim "This is a list of the people I'm going to bite if I go mad"
 He who merely knows right prin- ciples is not equal to him who loves them.-COnfucius.

 Two charwomen were discussing their husbands; neither seemed quite satisfied with her match.

NO. l PROBLEM

Apart from the question of pushing the defense program, health is Mo- 1 problem for labor-although few unions have recognized it as such. The average worker loses eight working days each year from non-industrial illness. Usually he pays for 1t in lost wages to total of about $2,200,000,- 900 year.
 Lost wages are of course only part of the expense. There is the additional burden of doctors and hospital bills Credit unions report that 609d of the money borrowed is for medical bills beyond the resources of the family

improvement in their standard of liv- ing?
 Does Pegler likewise forget that labor is responsible for the great Social Security Act? The Unem- ployment Compensation Act? The United States Housing Authority Act? and many other laws protect ing our people? Does anyone think for a moment that the National As sociation of Manufacturers was re- sponsible for any of these humani- tarian laws?
 B-9O's CONTRIBUTIONS Would Pegler be interested to know that during the depression my own Local Union B-90, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, paid out approximately $5,000 to keep our members in good standing so that their $1,000 insurance policies would be protected when they were forced to cancel all other insurance policies to buy bread for their families? Would he believe that this money was also used to assist our members when they were in distress and needed money be- cause of accident or death?
 I.B.E.W. HELPS ALL Would Pegler believe that our International Brotherhood of Elec- tricaI Workers which he has at times condemned directly or indi- rectly loaned hundreds of thou sands of dollars to local unions after their own treasury was ex- hausted?
 Would Pegler believe that when our members reach the age of 65 they receive $42.OO a month pen sion until death, provided they have been members of our brotherhood
