i It recommended a general pro-
gram of promoting medical train
ing for Negro youths, asserting
that 'it is the high moral duty OF
the state to provide improved op-
portunities for Negroes to serve the
medical needs of their race"
The initial funds would be used
to build and assist counties and
communities in building and en-.
largest hospitals, with an ultimate
goal Of providing an additional g.
600 hospital beds at an estimated
cost of $500 per bed, thus rails
ing the state to a standard OF four
beds for each 1000 population, both
white and colored.
Grants for construction would be
made only to areas where the need
for additional hospital facilities
was greatest, and would not ex.
coed 50 per cent of the cost Of
construction and equipment. Eco.
nomic conditions within the area,
the financial ability Of the local
government unit, and the availa'
bility of funds from other sources
would be factors considered if the
50 per cent basis was exceeded.

About two months ago Mrs. Vincent Cai'S husband
came home in secondhand and announced that he
going to buy it. Mrs CALI lives in Los Angeles Calf.
There had been such before and Mrs CALI had
started in to outalk her husband. But did you ever
hear of a husband being ''outtaked"? Well, else
ever did, either And Mrs CALI has always prded her
self saying exactly what she meant But this had never
gotten her anywhere.
This time she decided to approach the matter differ
emily Her first dcson not to say anything until she
had cooled downa wise decision Next decision was to
get husband to discuss the matter with her calmly
Then she asked him why he thought they should buy
secondhand at this time. Mr. CALI full of why's,
and they pretty good too He would drive to
work instead of going by bus He could go in onethrd the
time. There argument against these facts
Mrs CALI praised him for this. He had certainly seen
those points clearly He did have good head and he
used it wisely
Then Mrs CALI showed him the other side They would
On top of this they would worry about and tires
and repairs that with secondhand Then she
suggested that it might be good idea to wait till after
the and buy instead She did not say this,
so much as she suggested it. Wouldn't it be good idea,
she asked
Mr. CALI turned the idea in his mind Well yes,
there something to support it.
Mrs CALI asked what he thought the after
the war would look like and what kind of improvements
they would have This set her husbands mind racing and
he visuazed with the latest improvements in
stead of the old secondhand standing in front of the
house.
The more Mr.. CALI thought about new car the better
he liked the idea In time at all he was talking in favor
of it without knowing he had swung around. He had
talked himself of idea into another Finally he said
81 think my idea of buying after the war is
better than loading an old car now Iii take this
