ask the General assembly to in
crease teachers salaries by 20 per-
cent.
There were about three dissent
ing votes to the Raleigh Classroom
teachers decision to favor the

CLARK ENDORSES
HEALTH PROGRAM
State Wide Plan Entirely
Within Financial Reach.
Chairman Says
Special To The Star

DURHAM, Jan. Z. James H.
Clark, of Elizabethtown, chairman
n the Medical Care commission,
strongly endorsed the proposed
statewide Good Health plan and
asserted that the program in its
entirety is within North Cardinals
financial reach.
Clark, who served for three years
mn the North Carolina State High
wav commission followed by II
wears as a member of the N. c.
Rpdget commission and two terms
in the General Assembly, assert
ID. ~ have given serious thought
about whether or not North Caro-
tina is able to undertake this ad-
Gitional burden of service to its
neople' at this time, and I have ar
rived at the conclusion that the
whole program should be under
taken now. 1, therefore, endorse
the entire program"
In the first public expression OF
his views on the health program,
Clark stated that North Cardinals
heal,h needs must receive the
same consideration and action
given campaigns for better schools
and roads in the past.
AS proud as we are of our pro-
press in road construction, our
educational development, our agri.
cultural and industrial progress"
he said, I'VE must admit that be-
fore we really rank in the fore
front with other progressive states
as we are able and entitled to do
that we must do something about
our health conditions.
"In order to attain our detectives
which would provide a hospital or
medical center in every county in
North Carolina and develop a pro
gram that will give us more doc
tors, more nurses, and more techni-
clans, we shall of course, have to
expend a considerable amount of
money. Certainly if by this ex-
penditure carefully planned and
carried out we can thereby protect
the health of our people, it can
readily be seen by any taxpayer,
even the most critical ones, that
it is a real investment and will
pay splendid dividends in the years
ahead"
On the basis Of his past associa-
ton with state finances, which he
stated has given him IAN intimate
insight of our states financial
structure" Clark declared that
North Carolina is in excellent fl
nancial condition and can well af-
ford to appropriate the $4,000, 00C
being asked by the Medical Care
commission to get the health pro-
gram under way.
