French Government
Enters Second Year
Amidst Satisfaction

PARIS, Sept. Is (CDN.-
Frances government recently en-
tered It's second year, with what
nj observers here agree is q JUS
tt1iable sense Of satisfaction.
Much has been accomplished
under the leadership of Premier
Henri Queuille, the man few
Frenchmen knew a year ago,
whose very name most foreigners
still ind unpronounceable.
It has been . year Of surprises
highlighted by the remarkable
feat-in postwar France at least
-of . government managing to
remain in Office for IL whole
months.
Boosted by Marshall Plan aid,
the country has made a striking
economic recovery. Official sta
tistics give the index Of industrial
production as 100 compared with
100 In 1888. This means that
French workers today are pro-
dueing almost one-third more
than in prewar years.
Most Crops Increase.
The latest wheat crop-Sh mil
lion tons-is 100000 tons larger
than last years record, despite
the drought that threatened to
reduce the total by Z per cent.
Moreover, other crop figures with
the exception Of corn. which
dropped 80 per cent, oats and
sarraztu are equally good. Bar
ley showed 4 10 per cent increase
and the potato crop, which had
been expected to be practically
snon-existent, is good. This year
also win be one Of the best vintage
years since 1884. though sugar
beets are mediocre and the
amount Of wine will be limited.
The Queuille government has
strengthened the hand Of Finance
Minister Petsche in his Washing
ton negotiations by showing that
France is q country whose sound
economy can soon achieve sound
finances.
It has proved that continued
Marshall Plan aid to France is
essential.

Health Group Scores
Medical Associations S
|12-PointN Nationa|P Plan

The 12-point American Medical
Association plan for a national
health program today was de-
nounced by the Committee for the
Nations Health as a fancy press
relations job designed to obscure
the AMA's stubborn opposition to
any program which would bring
medical care within the means
Of the average man."
The committee, which supports
a national compulsory health in
surance program, criticized the re-
cent ANA program in a state
ment through its chairman, DR..
Charming rockingham Of Boston.
His statement said the ANA
proposals leave the powerful med
ical group still relying on volun-
tary health insurance programs,
despite all the window dressing"
Most Of the proposals, he charged.
ARE on the statute books already
or are In the Presidents program
awaiting action by Congress"
DR.. rockingham said the sub
stitution of voluntary insurance
plans for the administration
sponsored compulsory insurance
proposal constitutes "a snare and
a delusion."
The statement pointed out that
the House Expenditures Commit
tee last week turned down the
first ANA point, which asked for
a Federal Department Of Health
with Cabinet status. The pro-
posal "for putting a doctor in the
Cabinet is as out Of step with
American tradition as for the
Army to demand a general in the
Cabinet" it declared.
The committee statement
charged that the "only hint OF
anything new in the ANA pro-
gram was a proposal for facil-
tiles to care for the aged and
victims Of chronic diseases. If
really carried out" the statement
said, "this would cost billions OF
dollars Of the taxpayers money"

his California base.
He said goodby to his parents and
to an older brother, a marine veteran

was killed in an automobile accident.
The family appealed to the Red Cross

Within short while a Red Cross
