Many believe, though, that such
er work when it comes to income
dangers are inherent in our high
ly specialized world. Others point
out that the amount of new paper
work has been exaggerated in
view Of the fact that the doctor
no longer has to bother with fees
and collections and has less pap
tax returns. The medical pro-
fession as a whole seems to be
uneasy about the state setting its
financial return-dentists, for ex-
ample, have seen their fees alter
ed twice since the health service
cam in. 1t is only natural for most
doctors and dentists to prefer to
have complete control over their
own destinies.
| In spite of vigorously expressed
criticism of many aspects of the
service, by far the greater num-
Der of practitioners realize that
the health situation in Britain
before and after the war was
far from good and that large
segments of the population were
left out in the cold Most doc
tors are more interested in prac-
tice than in politics and believe
that the shortcomings of the
scheme will be ironed out in time.
There is no talk of returning to
the old system. The feeling surely
prevails, particularly among the
younger members of the profess
sion, that the future physical well
being of Britain is assured, Eight
applicants for every opening in
the medical school at the Uni
versity of Edinburgh attest to the
same sentiment among those who
desire to enter the field.
The British doctor of tomorrow
will continue to consult with his
patient not as a socialist or free
enterpriser but as a man of medi-
cine.

NEW YORK, Oct. 81 - The re-

Well, no longer, apparently. The
yesult is that the famous five-cent
cup of coffee, along with the nick

TO climb to a dime. At retail
levels, coffee may boil up to ST.
a-pound peaks by the end of the
year - the better grades have al
ready scared to go cents and up
marks. and this is "only the be-
ginning" say coffee dealers.
The current coffee price spiral
Is grounded in two main causes:
q big drop in production and a
fast-growing increase in demand.
According to some reports, almost
half Of the Brazilian crop has
been destroyed by the drought.
in Guatemala, the worlds second
biggest coffee producer, floods
have been the culprit. Add to
these factors a world coffee de-
ynand that's now nearly on level
with maximum potential output
and you have 1850 production
outlook that shapes up as away
below par--some 100000 bags
below, in fact.
All this makes coffee addicts
grumble in their cups. It's also
giving plenty of headaches to res
tauranteurs-10-cent coffee will
hurt their business, but they can

Goodness And Power

KNY ONE who saw Edward, My

ter went slowly to pieces. because
his father was determined that
nothing should be too good for him.
TO gain his purpose the father ran
rough-shod over everyone who
stood in his way. and eventually
ruined he lives Of all around him,
including his sons and his own.
The mother, on the other hand,
could see, as the father could not,
what his indulgence was doing to
the boy, making him a weakling
and rat. But she was too weak
TO stand up against her husband.
and her life too was ruined. That

But these three are all In the
same God. A God who Is power
only, might do as Edwards father
did. destroy his children without
even intending to do 30. A God
who Is goodness only. might want
to do right by his WORLD yet not DO

High Court Reverses
Sentence Of Priest
Who Attacked Jews

WASHINGTON, (JTA) - The
United States Supreme Court last
week reversed the conviction of
Rev. Arthur w. Terminiello, a
Catholic priest, who was charged
with preaching the peace by deliv-
ering an anti-Semitic speech in
Chicago three years ago.
The decision, based on the argu-
ment that free speech must be
maintained even when the speak
er's words stir people to anger and
unrest, was reached by five to
four majority.
Rev. Terminiello, who was un-
der suspension as a priest at the
time he made his speech but was
later reinstated in parish, spoke
at meeting sponsored by Gerald
L. X. Smith and the Christian
Veterans of America which at
tracted a hostile crowd of at least
1000 persons.
Following his arrest, Terminiello
was convicted and fined 500 by a
Chicago municipal judge. The con-
viction was upheld in the Illinois
Appellate and Supreme Courts.
