THE OLD SO AND
SO SAYS:

Once in blue moon someone steps
out of the crowd he runs with and
says things that make people sit up
A. Johnston who recently stepped
down from the presidency of the cham
Der of commerce of the United States.
Mr.. Johnston rallied at the wrongs of
a system which rests on "congealed
and untouchable dogmas" and which
is loaded down with pretrified preju-
dices" against organized labor, gov
eminent activities and social planning.
Not content with such language in his
speech, when he retired, Mr. Johnston
went on to ask what is wrong with
a minimum wager" why, he said,
declare you regret to see slack times
and seasonal unemployment and at
one and the same time fight minimum
wages 2" We must have, he said, few
Ell people at the top and fewer at the
bottom, more machines but, what is
more important, more people who can
afford the products of these machines.
And:
1--WE say we want to see more diffu-
sion of the good things of the world?
Then what's wrong with profit shar-
ing? What's wrong with giving our
workers an incentive to produce more
for their own profit-and for yours?
More people making more things
which more and more people can buy?
We are all for these detectives. But
are they pious or are they real?"
The Old So and So is happy to pass
on to businessmen of Montana the Ian
guage of a man who manages seven
enterprises and employs a large num-
Der of men-even though, to them, he
may talk like a hereto. Trouble is
Eric Johnston is one of the keenest
intellects in the country and men of
affairs would do far better to listen
to him than the paid secretaries of

Passage of the National Health act
(senate bill 1906; house bill 473O)
would put into effect most of the Ma
President Truman. 1t includes a plan
of prepaid personal health insurance,
as a part of the social security system.
Gainfully employed workers and their
families could get needed medical and
hospital care, from the doctor or hos
pital of their choice, and have the bills
for such services paid from the insur-
ance funds.
The National Health act leaves open
the question as to how the COSTS of
the health insurance benefits are to
be divided among workers, employers
and the government, all of whom al
ready spend money for medical care.
The total costs of the insurance bene-
fits are estimated at about per cent
of earnings, up to $4,000 year, at the
beginning; they might be as much as
four per cent later Congress will, no
doubt, want to hear from the public
how these costs should be met.
For the veteran, such plan would
mean
