Dr.. Corning Protests
Juvenile Delinquent
Brand on All Youths

Washington's superintendent of
schools is weary of people who
brand whole generation of clean
and fine" American youth as "juve-
nile delinquents.
DR.. Hobart M. Corning told the
closing session of a District Con-
gress Of Parents and Teachers Con-
vention at the Mayflower last night
that actually only a small percent
age of the students now in the Ma
tion's schools are delinquent. While
ne does not wish to underestimate
the Importance of handling this
problem, parent teacher groups
should also concentrate on giving
credit to youngsters who are facing
the peacetime reconversion with
courage and balance, DR.. Corning
said.
Urges Confidence.
Without confidence in American
youths ability to handle the tasks
ahead Of them, the Nations parents
have nothing to believe in, DR..
Corning said. He added that chill
dren might go off and be delin-
quent because it Is expected of
them"
Careless citizens also tend to
talk loosely about educational
theories they do not understand.
DR.. Corning said. He asked the
parent-teacher groups to study the
District schools so that they can
interpret them accurately to out
siders. Too often a specific school
or an educational theory will be
harmed by remarks of persons who
actually knew nothing about it, he
added.
Higher Pay Recommended.
The superintendent urged that
teachers salaries be raised so high
that the best students would be
attracted to and held in the profess
sion.
Mrs. Frank Borden was toast
mistress of the closing dinner, at
which Mrs. o. G. Hankins was in
stalled as president to succeed Mrs.
Arthur C. Watkins. The Rev. Ber-
nard Braskamp, assistant chap
lain of the House of Representa-
tives, pronounced the invocation.
Earlier the convention passed a
resolution asking that the Federal
payment toward District expenses
be increased so that teachers SAL
aries could be raised and more
schools built.
The congress voted opposition to
sending soldiers under 20 years of
age oversease 1t urged that re-
structions against sale of liquor to |
minors be rigidly enforced.

u. S. Not Healthiest Nation

By means of instruction and home
care, nursing services supported by
community chests throughout the
country are waging strong battles to
keep down the infant death rates in
their communities, according to Mat
thew Woll, president of the Labor
League for Human Rights.
Woll's statement followed publica-
ton of quotation in The American
Federationist recently by Arthur j.
Altmeyer, chairman of the Social Sc
curity Board. Altmeyer declared "the
statement has been made many times
that we are the healthiest nation on
earth, but statistics for the years just
preceding the war show conclusively
that we are not"
Altmeyer pointed out that seven
countries had lower pre-war infant
death rates than the United States,
for example. He also held that some
sections of the country have done bet
ter in protecting peoples health than
others.
Altmeyer's statement concluded
with the question: "Is democratic
government meeting its full respon-
sibility when it does not safeguard
and improve the health of it's people
to the utmost extent that modern med
ical science and its resources can pro-
vide?"
In spite of governments obvious re-
sponsibility, Woll pointed out, nursing
agencies supported in part by contri-
buttons of AFL members in their gifts
to their community chests are giving
yoeman service.
Instruction for expectant mothers,
home delivery services and home nurs-
ing after birth for both mother and
child are among the activities which
these services provide, Woll explain
ed.
In Hamilton the Public Health
League Nursing Association is the
agency giving this Red Feather SER
vice with the support of the Hamilton
Community Chest and the City Of
Hamilton through its Health Depart
ment.

1916 budget was short about $125,000
and city council was forced to resort
to the eight per cent utility tax for
the remainder Of the year to balance
it's funds and carry on all municipal
services" Mr.. Conway said.
eff the 1947 budget is about the
same, there will be budget deficit
of about $150,000. Utility taxes will
not be collected so that revenue will
not be available. Thus, unless these
necessary funds are provided through
Home Rule, the city will have to re-
duce expenses by that amount. This
would necessitate 20 per cent reduc-
tion in salaries Of city employees, a
reduction Of the police and fire depart
ments, the elimination of free gar
bage collections and sharp curtail-
ment of medical and other welfare ac-
tivities."
"This would be costly blow to the
city ana everyone OF lCS residents, just
when the city is in the midst of great
growth and progress"
"It is matter of Importance to all
of us that Home Rule be approved
It's the cheapest way to get the best
services and to help our city continue
to grow and prosper"
1--WE sincerely hope that all Hamil-
tonians will vote FOR HOME RULE
and, by doing SO, get rid Of the nui-
sance utility tax, make certain gar
bage collections continue, give city
workers decent wages and above all
place our city government on 9

Proposal Firmly Backed AS Part of Long Sought AFL
Plan For Security

as good as it is possible for it to be in
America, and until the last laggard
areas have caught up with the more
advanced sections"
The American people, Mr.. Green
told the committee, are impressed by
the great medical advances made dur
ing the war and desire the benefit Of
this progress for themselves. Often,
however, this service is beyond the
reach of the. workingman's pocket
book.
"We do know" he added, 'that the
most frequent single cause of depen
dency is sickness. And we know that
the desperate resort to the loan shark
often arises from the necessity of pay
ing the cost attendant upon sickness
and that the largest single reason for
cashing war saving bonds is illness" !"
Declaring the American worker sees
nothing socialistic or revolutionary
about proposal to extend the old and
proven policy Of insurance to meet
sickness in his home, Mr.. Green ex-
planned why the AFL does not con-
slider voluntary insurance plans suffi-
cient to meet the nations needs.
Citing widespread confusion in
public discussion of voluntary and
compulsory health plans, Mr.. Green
conceded that the AFL repeatedly has
been accused of opposing forms of
compulsion. He recalled also that 80
years ago the AFL was opposed to
adoption of health insurance pro-
gram.
"But our great, democratic labor
organization" he added, Gin response
to the expressed needs and wishes OF
the membership, has steadily swung
over to the support Of this program.
to the point where, in the last ma
tional AFL convention in 1914, it was
adopted unanimously"
Asserting it was unnecessary for
him to discuss in detail "the deficien-
cies of voluntary plans" fully covered
in earlier testimony, Mr.. Green add
ed that such plans do not reach the
low income families "and they are the
ones who most need health insur-
ance."
"It is possible" he told the COM
mittee, "that voluntary health in
surance providing complete medical
care and service would be good
thing for those persons who could
| get it and who could afford it, but il
has been found impractical for the
great masses of our people"
| Coverage under the pending bill
Mr.. Green estimated, would reach be-
tween 80 and 80 per cent Of the en-
tire population "and its coverage is
adequate and as nearly complete as
is practicable"
On the question of benefits, Mr.
Green pronounced the bill satisfac-
tory in its provision that all insured
persons and their dependents are en-.
titled to services Of general prac-

the strikers themselves. In making
the decision to strike to enforce their
demands, they have to consider that
there will be no pay envelope while
they are not working, that they run
the risks Of hunger, cold and going
into debt and that not only they but
their families as we'll will suffer dur
ing a strike Such a decision is not
lightly made"

Washington, D. C.-AFL President
William Green strongly urged Con-
gress to enact legislation for federal
health insurance. He told the Senate
Education and Labor Committee the
proposed National Health Act is part
of a comprehensive social security
program advocated for number of
years by the AFL.
"The working people of America
are not satisfied with present levels
of health in this country" Mr. Green
declared.
"They know, often through bitter
experience" he stressed, "the highly
unsatisfactory condition prevailing in
the poorer agricultural states and in
rural sections of wealthy states, and
in low income areas of our great
metropolitan centers."
Citing what he termed the "shock-
ing" disclosure of physical unfitness
during the war, Mr.. Green asserted:
eve do not feel that a nation can
be secure or proud of its achieve
ment in the health field so long as
this condition prevails. Our medical
progress must be measured by the
degree of health enjoyed by our peo-
pie, and in this we do not measure
up. Even if our general health were
the best in the world, which it is not,
we should not be satisfied until it is
