The recent decision of the American Med
ical Associations house of delegates to raise
swar-fund of $500, 900 through assessing
each of its 14O, 900 members $685. for the pur-
pose of combating the national health insur-
ance movement, may prove to be the most
disastrous step ever taken by the entrenched
hierarchy of organized medicine
Rumblings from the medical rank and file
against the S25 propaganda tax are growing
louder, and we may expect widespread re-
fusal to pay it. The ANA, on its part, may
be expected to use every pressure device,
through its state and local affiliates, to coerce
the membership into submission Only those
aware of the virtually totalitarian nature of
organized medicine can appreciate the power
of such coercive measures retaliation in the
form of denying hospital appointments, eX-
pulsion from medical societies and conse-
Quent loss of important medical rights and
privileges, professional ostracism etc..
Many Oppose Tax
Even many physicians who themselves
are strongly opposed to federal health in
surance are repelled by the idea of being
taxed for $3,5OO,OOO propaganda cam
paign conducted in the of the medi-
cal profession. They particularly of

of the taxed.
The stiff-necked attitude of the ANA in
arrogating unto itself the right to dictate to
the American people the kind and degree of
medical care they shall have is rapidly alien
ating even those sections of the lay public
it used to count on for support. The AFRO
CANT resolution arrived at in secret sessions at
the recent ST. Louis meeting of the ANA
have brought the ANA into greater public
obloquy than has ever been its lot
The ANA, for instance, has leaned heavily
on the assumption that the powerful Catholic
church would Fundamentally oppose federal
health insurance, in view of its general an
tagonism to governmental expansion of du-
ties. But this hope is rudely shaken by an
editorial published this week in the influen-
tial and conservative Catholic Journal, Amer
lea.
The America editorial is headed "AMA
and the Christian Conscience" and reads as
follows:
christian social philosophy teaches that
the security and temporal prosperity of
society and its members is the RESPONSE

DR.. May Zaugg was then in
troduced and she spoke on the
sub ject Examinations for
Health. She emphasized the val
ue of periodical physical exami-
nations for the purpose of detect
ing symptoms of disease before
they reached advanced stages
These examinations are impor-
tant for everyone; but especially
for expectant mothers, for small
children, for adolescent boys and
girls and for persons past mid
die age. She recommended that
appointments be made with the
doctor so sufficient time may be
given to the examination. Head
aches are symptoms of many dis
orders and the habitual use of
pain killers" and patent medi-
cineS might lead to trouble. DR.
Zaugg's excellent talk was ap-
preciated by those present.

COMMENTS
On CoevoI Life
BY VIcToRlo A. VELASco

Under whatever circumstances
the guilty conscience finds itself
perturbed by its hypocritic pre-
tentions. The little voice speaks
loud, vocal in its accusation and
condemnation.
We may not know it now, but
there is a little something that
trails US all our life. Whether we
like il or not, there is voice that
always whispers the truth, and it
will always win against all oCr
pompous brageadocio.
Fleeing temporal power or pos
session of filthy gold oftentimes
carry US to the crest of seeming
success only to dump us in the
abyss of oblivion. We worship
Mammon to the extent of disre-
garding the decencies of principle
and sell our soul for a few pieces
of silver.
Our record will speak. That rec
ord will be eloquent in its cold
silence. Vain will be the beautiful
phraseology that we may be able
to weave and vain will be the
0emosthenesian eloquence that we
may be able to command against
the stone wall of that record. Its
silence is its eloquenee.

him amiably. Then he turned toward the
Trieste police and moment later the man
had been pulled out of the jeep. The barrier
was lifted, the civilian was given an uncere-
monious shove, and the barrier was closed
again behind him. He turned around and
shook his fist in anger. Then he shrugged and
walked on through no-man's land until he
reached the Yugoslav barrier. The Yugoslav
guard saluted smartly and the man walked
down the road and vanished behind the trees.
