STATE MEDICINE COSTS
MONEY

II is no accident that very
little is said by the propon-
ents Of state medicine as to
the cos of their proposals.
Their arguments are confin-
ed TO humanitarianism be-
cause the problem of cost is
too unpleasant TO discuss.
But the people have to
face the cost of social Sc
cuTity and sOcialized medi-
cine, for they must pay the
taxes 10 support them. They
should not be sold a bill of
goods until they know what
L will cost.
One competent authority
writes, During the next ten
or fifteen years, the total
annual cost of social insur-
anee will be somewhere be-
sixth of the payroll, or SO
tween one-seventh and one
10 Sl2 billion. 1t is almost
certain that before the costs
are stabilized, they will
equal or exceed those of the
British system which are es-
timated at "a per cent of
the wage bill" The same
authority estimated the cost
ct state medicine alone.
such as proposed in the
Wagner-M Murray bill, at ST
billion 10y 1860.
This is something for all
Americans to think about.

FROM 5000, 100000 TO
20 CENTS

Here's how in f la t i o n
works:
In Budapest, a ten billion
pengo note, which before
the war would have been
worth $20O,000,000, is in
circulation with a purchas-
oing power of twenty cents.
The news dispatch says
that the government is pre-
pairing a one hundred bill
lion-pengo note. This, pre-
sumably, will be worth
about $500, but the chances
are that by the time it is
printed and in circulation, it
will have a much smaller
purchasing power.
The people of the United
States, who have saved bill
lions of dollars during the
war years and have other
billions in permanent invest
ments, will be interested III
keeping the dollar on a
sound basis. However the
job is accomplished, it will
require some method of
price control to retain the
purchasing power of m oney
i'll circulation.

DOES HISTORY REPEAT

does only because man,
alta his limitations, acts
amd IN nks in such a man

The observation is eX-
tremeIy timely and should
serve to correct erroneous
thinking on the part of peO-
nla who are inclined to ac-
rept half-truths as inevitable
truth.
Mr.. VinsOn points out
that we can control our
course and that if we do not
peat there is no chance
whatever of history repeat
lng. or seeming to repeat,
itself. This is very much to
the point in connection with
the attitude that has devel-
oped in this country in con-
nection with problems aris-
ing from World War II.
There is no doubt, in our
opinion. that the greatest
menace To the peace. pros

United States in the future

public opinion along lines
that were pursued after

lies the inevitable seed of
future conflicts. the begin

ton and the certainty of an

will produce a depression

FIRST RESURRECTION
AND SECOND DEATH
BY J.W.R.

And / saw an angel come down
from heaven, having the key of
the bottomless pit and a great
chain in his hand. And he laid
hold on the dragon, that old ser
pent, which is the Devil, and Sa-
tan, and bound him thousand
years, and cast him into the bot
tomless pit, and shut him up. and
set seal upon him, that he should
deceive the nations no more, till
the thousand years should be full
filled: and after that he must be
loosed a little season.
And / saw thrones, and they
sat upon them, and Judgment was
given unto them: and l saw the
souls of them that were beheaded
| for the witness of Jesus, and for
the word of God, and which had
not worshipped the beast, neither
his image, neither had received
his mark upon their foreheads,
or in their hands; and they lived
and reigned with Christ thou
sand years.
But the rest of the dead lived
not again until the thousand years
We're finished. THIS is THE
FIRST RESURRECTION. Blessed
and holy is he that hath part in
the first resurrection: on such the
second death hath no power, but
they shall be priests of God and
of Christ, and shall reign with
him thousand years.
And when the thousand years
are expired, Satan shall be loosed
out of his prison, and shall go out
to deceive the nations which are
in the four quarters of the earth,
Cog and Magog, to gather them
| together to battle: the number of
whom is as the sand of the sea.
And they went up on the breadth
of the earth, and compassed the
camp of the saints about, and the
beloved city: and fire came down
from God out of heaven and de-
|voured them.
And the devil that deceived
them was cast into the lake of
fire and birthstone, where the
beast and the false prophet are,
and shall be tormented day and
night for ever and ever.
And l saw great white throne,
and him that sat on it, from
whose face the earth and the
heaven fled away; and there was
found no place for them. And l
saw the dead, small and great,
stand before God; and the books
were opened: and another book
was opened, which is the book
of life: and the dead were judged
out of those things which were
written in the books, according to
their works.
And the sea gave up the dead
which were in it; and death and
hell delivered up the dead which
were in them: and they were
judged every man according to
their works. And death and hell
were cast into the lake of fire.
THIS is THE SECOND DEATH
And whatsoever was not found
written in the book of life was
cast into the Lake of fire.-Twen-
tieth Chapter of the Book of
Revelation.

THE SERPENT'S HEAD

fusion, any day now, that
you see a sea serpent, or at
least its head, on may be
sure that it's name is lnfla-
ton. Go into a store with a
tlve-dollar bill and, after
you have spent it, look into
the bag or basket at what
you got in exchange for the
bill, and you not only will
see the serpent's head but
also hear the ominous snorts
coming out of the distended
nostrlls.
II is an easy matter to find
the men who are spawning
the serpent Initiation. All
you have to do is to go to
Washington and point in
any direction, and you may
be sure that somewhere in
that direction is a man or
men who are helping to Gre
ate the serpent.
OPA itself is helping in
the production. 1t has per-
mitted advances in prices on
81 commodities In the last
two weeks, probably in an
attempt to smooth the fur
of the OPA opposition in
congress.
AS rule, the senate is
the conservative part OF
congress, but in the consid-
Grafton of the OPA extern
sion bill the senate has ia
vored the establishment or
extension of price ceilings on
many commodities. House
members, who believe that
the OPA is our chief factor
in fighting Initiation, have
declared that. if the senate's
amendments to the extern
sion bill is favored by the
house and senate cOnferees,
it will mean the virtual
death of t h a t government
agency.
One news commentator
Sunday night named the
confeFees and then asserted
that the nation would know
whom to blame if free rein
were given TO Initiation.
Your wages or salaries
are high, but of what conse-
quence will be high wages
and salaries if the serpent
Initiation snorts and cavorts
throughout the land? 1t will
mean more strikes, more de-
mands for higher wages and
salaries to meet the higher
cost of living. The demands
will be granted, and up go
the prices again!
Initiation is on the march,
and it wont be long before
it will be galloping wildly
with more demands for
higher wages and salaries
and further advances in the
cost of living. The wages
will never be on a par with
the cost, and, in TRYING to get
on a par, Initiation Will m n,
crease its dimensions until
the economy of the nation
is ruined.
Yes, that serpent's head
you see in your basket OF
purchases with that five
dollar bill is Initiation.
