Congressional
.Crist Mill
By REP. GEORGE sMArHERs

t One of the nations paramount
health problems is the. shortage
of practicing physicians. accord
ing to recent figures, except in
New York City, there is. not even
one. physician for every 1000
persons living is this. country, it
being estimated that the ratio. is
is about one for every l,700 per-
sons. This is considerably below
the, minimum number of doctors
needed to treat the ailments of
our populace. '.,.~
1t seemed to me that one of
the reasons for this APPALLING
shortage of doctors is the great
expense involved in the attaining
of medical education. In most
instances the cost Of. the eight
year medical course is almost
prohibitive to the average family.
The consequences are that many
young students who are able and
would make good doctors are.
because of financial reasons,
seeking less expensive courses of
study and are foregoing a pro-
fession which is of vital import
ance to the nations health and
welfare.
In as effort to remedy this
situation by attempting to pro-
vide more doctors, l introduced
this week a bill which would
provide for federal assistance to
worthy students desiring a medi-
cal education. To be eligible such
Estudents would have to4be physi-
cally qualified to practice medi-
cine and be in the top scholastic
quarter of their class in under
graduate college. -,,.s-,.t.-
The government would pay the
cost of books, tuition fees and
other necessary expenses, and a
subsistence allowance of SIS, a
month while student was
actually id attendasce at medi-
cal college. All of the money ex-
pended would be, in the /. form of
loan at 2 percent, to be repaid
on the installn1ent, basis, COM
mescing ten years after the
student completes; or otherwise
terminates, his course. As under
the C. l. Bill of Rights, a stu
dents conduct and progress
would have to continue to be
satisfactory at all times in order
to remain eligible for the bene-
fits of my proposal.
My bill provided for the estab-
lishment for revolving Trust
Fund to be administered by the
Commissioner of. Education Fed
eral Security Agency. The origi-
nal appropriation would be cred
tied to this WFund and repay
ments of loans and interest on
those loans would CO. into self
perpetuatiiig Trust WFund for
future loans. This would mean
that eventually this program
t would not, require appropriations,
! as the repayment of earlier loans
would become available for adj
| ditional assistance to new stu
dents, so in future years, as doc
tors repaid the loans which had
provided their education, that
money would pay for another
generation of doctors.
| 1t is my hope that this legisla-
ton will be passed in this session
of Congress, and that, along with
other remedial measures which l
hoppe to introduce in the near
future, this federal medical edu-
cation assistance program will
provide the answer to today's
/ pressing need for medical faclli-
ties for our rapidly growing
population.

French Government
Decides 10 Stand or
Fall on Budget Issue
BY the Asseeiai.d Prs.s

PARIS, Dec. 29.-France's mid
die of -the-road coalition govern
ment has decided to stand or fall
on the issue of q balanced budget.
The decision was made by Pre-
mier Georges Bidault's cabinet at
q special meeting yesterday, fol-
lowing 1872 hours of debate in
the National Assembly on the
proposed record breaking budget.
The government already faces
two critical votes of confidence to-
morrow on Mr.. Bidault's proposal
to boost taxes to cover the coun-
try's expenditures.
The. French Parliament has
agreed in principle to adopt the
2, 257. 000, 000, 900 q franc budget
dabout $6,440, 10000 but Com
munists and right-wing followers
of Gen.. Charles de Gaulle have
opposed increased taxes to meet it.
The cabinet claims it needs an
additional. 100000. 100000 francs
in taxes. The National Assembly
already has rejected tax bill on
tires and Diesel oil which might
bring in 7.800.O00,000 francs
(about 1000, 00OD.
Even If the cabinet wins the
votes of confidence on the remain
ing tax proposals, therefore, the
budget still will not be balanced.
Mr.. Bidault's cabinet has decided
that it must fight for this or fall.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-The
Japanese are slow to warm up
to q new birth policy" designed
to head off an alarming popula-
ton growth, the American Asso-
citation for the Advancement of
Science was told today.
Sociologist P. K. Whelpton o.
Miami University, Oxford, Ohio,
said recently opened marriage
consultation Offices have had few
clients.
Neither the Buddhists nor the
secetarian Shintoists-faiths pre-
ferred by most of the religiously
inclined Japanese-have taken
stand in favor of birth reduc-
ton.
The deeply engrained Japanese
love of children, plus the early
age at which many children begin
to contribute to family income are
other factors operating to impede
alteration of the reproductive pat
tern.

The fabulous population growth
is adding more than $500 people

California.
The rapid increase has impli-
cations for American taxpayers

support of the japanese as long
as occupation continues, DR..
Whelpton pointed out.
The new policy permits sterili-
cation and abortions. not only for
eugenic reasons, but in any case
where an additional child would
burden a family.
Public opinion polls in Japan
show majority approval for birth
control with three or four children
cited as the ideal number. But
they also show a limited adoption

DR.. Warren S. Thompson of
Miami University, who with DR..
Whelpton visited Japan this year,
said the japanese want to send out
large numbers of emigrants as
Europe did during the 10Th CEN

But no country in the world
will allow any considerable num-

added.
Even if the Japanese were free
to go to Borneo. New Guinea,
