The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON f,aa,or Robsrt [. AIlsn on active duts)

wASHINGTON-The U. $. Pub lie Health Service is having tough time persuading the Senate to appropriate sl,ooo,ooo for the re- location of doctors to areas where medical services are desperately short. Senator Kenneth Mckellar of Tennessee, chairman of a Senate appropriations subcommittee con- sidering the bill, left no doubts about his position during a recent closed door hearing.
 When two-fisted young Senator Claude Pepper of Florida was attempting to explain how the mil- lion dollars was to be used in plac- ing 600 physicians and dentists in areas where there was an extreme shortage, Senator Rufus Holman of Oregon broke in:
 will the Senator tell me if the matter of socialized medicine enters into this at all?"
 Pepper replied that there were apt to be epidemics in certain sec- tions unless the Federal Government stepped in. He quoted letters and telegrams from Doctor James Paul. lin of Atlanta, Georgia, President of the American Medical Associa- tion, Surgeon General Norman T. Kirk of the Army. and pr. Frank Lahey of the War Manpower Com missions procurement and assign ment service. indorsing the proposed appropriation.
 OreGon's Holman seemed to be satisfied with the explanation, but Tennessee's Mcclellan was far from convinced.
 This is socialized medicine" he exclaimed wrothily, and I won't approve it.. Why have you waited until this late stage to try to put over something like this?"
 We're not trying to put any, thing over." shot back Pepper. The House Appropriations Con- mittee approved the idea of doctor relocation six months ago, and everybody, including the American Medical Association, seems to be agreed that it is necessary if we are to prevent some of the disease epidemics that occurred during the last war"
 Well, I'm going to give it serious consideration before I approve it. responded McKcllar.
 Senator Overton of Louisiana supported McKellar

"The program rejects the inequitable

LAW-ABIDING
FREEDOM
BY RUTH TAYLOR

The impatient who want the end be-
fore the beginning are leveling criti-
cism against our government, decrying
the fact that we deal with established
governments only, that we do not deal
with governments SET up by liberals
if they do not have the backing of the
laws and people of their own country
We are called reactionary. We are
condemned for not standing for free
dom" which they interpret to mean the
right To do as they please.
Freedom of itself is beautiful word
but freedom without law to back it
is anarchy. Just as men must have
freedom 10 think. and speak in order
to progress and indeed survive so must
they have self-made laws regulating
that freedom.
History has proven this again and
again. The Roman Empire was great
as long as it was composed of disci
plined~free men. To be a Roman citi
zen then meant to be Il free man al
over the world. The Romans conquered
not merely by force of arms, but by
force of concerted. intelligent action
! But when liberty degenerated into Ii
cenSe. they fell a prey to the barbara
Germanc invaders.
As the historian. James TrusloW
| Adams. wrote without Il vision mer
| shall die II is no less true that without
/ I,,., .,l l,,1 ok
die" This has been the secret back o.
all mankind, but it was backed up by
/ laws that insured the keeping of tha
! freedom. Freedom alone is not enough
Nor will arbitrary laws suffice. Bu
freedom, backed by laws, conceived
and legiSlated by those to whom they
must apply, is invincible.
We cannot safeguard the freedom
that is democracy by undemocrati'
means. Democracy, the rule of the ma
jority, implies an acquieScence to self
government, Il willing obedience to tn,
! laws of the ajority plus Il realization
by the majority that minorites no
only have rights, too. but are entitled
to equal consideration and cannot b'
tranmcllcd or imposed upon. Right:
which we demand for ourselves W.
must grant to others. That is why FREE
| speech and freedom of religion ar,
basic To our American democracy.
