Jungle Uniform
Now Regulation
CT Fatigues

The notified green-and-br brown
camouflage jungle uniform, long
the distinguishing battle garment
of the American jungle fighter, is
being discontinued in favor of a
solid color uniform in dark
shade of olive drab
The new jungle uniform is none
other than the regulation CT two
piece fatigue suit of herringbone
twill, known to millions of Ameri-
can soldiers as the uniform in
which they learned to be fighters,
but made in a slightly darker
shade than the suit issued in the
United States.
The change is being made at the
direction of the Commanding Gen
eral of the Southwest Pacific The
ater of operations, General Doug
las Macarthur and is the newest
development in the quartermaster
corps search for the most effec-
tive camouflage designs. While
the present green and brown mot
tied design is effective as long as
the wearer remains comparatively
motionless, the dark olive drab is
believed to be more suitable for
the vigorously active battle move
ments which now characterize the
fighting in jungle areas.
Although the green and brown
camouflage uniform has been pic

How to Reduce Hazards
and High Death Rate

Following are rules, based on National
Safety Council research, for driving un-
der adverse weather and road conditions:
Winter Rules
/. Adjust speed to conditions.
Q. Slow down well in advance Of in
tersections and curves.
8. Follow other vehicles at safe dis
tances.
A. Put on tire chains when roads are
slippery with snow or ice. They provide
"go" traction and reduce braking dis
tances SO per cent.
5. Make sure windshield wipers-de-
frosters really work. Signal intentions
of turning or stopping.
8. Apply brakes lightly and internnt-
tently on icy roads.
Remember that braking distances on
snow and ice without anti-skid chains
are from 4 to IL times greater than on
dry pavement, and that wet ice at near
thawing temperatures is twice as slippery
as dry ice near zero.

HEALTH PLAN FOR
NATION ANNOUNCED

NEW YORK (FP)- A new nationwide
health plan insuring good medical care
for every man, n,woman and child in the
country within their ability to pay was
announced Dec. by conference group
of 29 welllknown doctors, economists, ad-
ministrators and representatives Of or
ganized labor.
Florence G. Thorpe Of the AFL Re
search Dept. and CLIO Research Director
j. Raymond walsh helped draw up the
plan, which proposes a national system
of health insurance to which employees,
employers and self-employed persons
would be required by law to contribute
in proportion to earning capacity. In
addition, low income families would be
provided for by supplementary taxation
The project provides for national
rather than a state system because so
many states lack financial resources to
carry out their own plans. 1t differs
from the health insurance part Of the
Wagner-Dingell bill, also backed by labor
in providing for decentralized admin
istration with local units exercising
autonomy under national standards, re-
cognition of existing voluntary hospita
and health insurance plans and the de-
termination Of policy by groups in which
both the public and the medical pro-
fession would be represented.
Full steps are taken to safeguard th'
status of physicians and the quality. o.
medical care and to encourage grouI
practice as the most efficient and econ
Iomical way of supplying medical service
Basic freedoms" include the right O.
patients to select their own doctors ant
hospitals by individual or by groul
choice and the right of doctors to accep
or reject patients, to take part in a pub
lie system or otherwise.
Collection of funds will be linked t
general social security collections. Point
ing out that the average American fam
lily already spends 3 per cent Of its in
come on doctor and hospital bills, tn
conference group says this plan woul
call for little new outlay of money bu
would merely regularize existing pay
ments. Medical service would includ
hospital care as well as preventive, dag
nostic and treatment services from doc
tors for bed, ambulatory and home pa
tents.
The Health Program Conference re
port was worked out jointly and unan
mously by 10 doctors, staff members {

Professor Meyer is chairman Of Ma
tional Safety Councils Committee on
Winter Driving Hazards, made up OF 80
experts in field of traffic safety and au-
tomotive transportation. Their new re-
port revealed traffic deaths in northern
snow-belt states last winter ran the mile
age death rate So per cent higher than

uted to a "a per cent increase IN The

insurance economists and eight admin

all groups and meet objections to exist
ing health insurance plans.
It is presented not as bill for con-
gressional action but as "a framework
for improved national health legislation
and for action by non-governmental
bodies" DR.. Michael M. Davis, chair
man Of the conference, said.
"The powers of modern medicine to
prevent and cure disease" he asserted,
ARE now only half available to most OF
the people because Of their cost. Medi-
cal care will be provided efficiently and
at lower cost when doctors work in
teams and in association with a hospital
