Medical
Aid bill


Overwhelming opposition from
medical and allied professions was
voiced here today to the Wagner
Murray-Dingell bill which would
establish a national system OF
medical and hospital insurance.
The subject was aired al a spe-
ciai meeting of the Wayne County
Medical Society in the Detroit
Institute Of Arts last night.
Six of the seven participants In
the round table discussion vigor-
ously condemned the bill on the
ground that il would place medi-
cal practice under political domi-
nation and would be a further
invasion of the field of free enter
prise by an already over-eXpanded
bureaucracy.
The sole defender OF the meas
ure was Edwin f. Witte, regional
director OF WLB.
Opponents were three physi-
clans. a dentist, a druggist and q
medical students. T. Staryk.

would buy for their own account
as much of the loan as is neces-
sary.'
The banker predicted more people

Producer-Distributor
Subsidy Issue May
Face Congress Soon
Members Unreceptive
To Incentive Pay Plan
As Anti-InfIotion Aid
1y the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Congress may be asked to pro-
vide Government subsidies for
both producers ant distributors
as a means of implementing
President Roosevelt's new price
freezing program designed to
hold the line" against imitation.
The administration already has
tested the temper of Congress. lead
ers said today. on the possibility of
making incentive payments to farm
ers to encourage production of some
crops and found no great enthu-
siasm.
But Senator George, Democrat, of
Georgia told reporters he could see
no alternative, if the Presidents Or
der is to be carried out in the terms
he laid down, than for the admins
tration to seek authority for in
centive payments which Congress
doesn't want to give"
Other legislators said there was
little doubt that if the President
accomplishes roll back of some
prices, such as he discussed in his
statement on imitation, that subsi-
dies would have to be provided for
distributors as well as producers.
The President himself said the ex-
tent to which subsidies and other
payments might be used to hold
down the cost Of living depends on
congressional action.
He pointed out that some prices
already are above the September Is,
1912, level set as maximum in the
StabiliZa ton Act. declaring that
some of these could and should be
rolled back
But Senator O'Mahoney. Demo-
crat, of wyoming said he was con-
vinced that any rollback of prices
on farm products would destroy pro-
duction. That was why the farm
bloc fought for legislation such as
the vetoed Bankhead bill to prevent
decreases in prices, he said
The Bankhead bill. sent to the
Agriculture Committee without ac-
ton on the veto, would force price
control officials to disregard benefit
payments in fixing ceilings on farm
commodities
Its not that the farmer wants
to boost prices that this fight has
been made Senator OMahoney
said It's because he is afraid that
his returns will not cover costs and
therefore he cannot undertake the
expenditures which are involved in
productive enterprise.
No Roll-Back on Planes.
"We don't roll back the cost of
airplanes on the manufacturer We
don't roll back the cost Of tanks.
In all of these cases we pay the
price, whatever it is. that is neces-
sary to produce what we want. It's
only with respect to the production
Of agricultural commodities that
here is roll back
Senator O'Mahonev said figures
81 the OPA and the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics proved that more
than half of every consumer dollar
went to professors and distributors.
I'VE cannot continue to roll back
the cost of producing food on the
farmer and hope at the same time
to feed the world as we'll as our own
Army, Navy and civilian popula-
tion,' he declared.
