BY STATE BOARD OF HEALTH

dent of the United States called a
national meeting to give considera
ton to the needs of children and
youth.

From DETROIT NEWS

Reactionary forces are out to des
troy everything gained for the or
dinary citizen in the last Is years,
Federal Security Administrator Oscar
r. Ewing told delegates to the Ameri-
can Federation of Teachers (AFT)
here recently.
''All the forces of reaction are out
to wreck the New Deal and Fair Deal
accomplishments and now we find
that the National Association of
Manufacturers and the American
Medical Association are bedfellows.
Ewing denounced the 'whole phil
osophy of reaction" as one based on
the idea, "help the people on top
and enough will trickle to those be-
low to keep them happy"

cludes the Office of Education, Pub

COST OF EDUCATION
What kind of an education is
the nation offering?" he demanded.

year for each child in school, yet

NEED FULL-TIME PUBLIC
HEALTH DEPARTMENT

Health committees have been at
work IN Montana surveying the needs.
They find an urgent need for com
plete coverage of the State with full
time public health departments. They
have learned that scattered and short
term projects do not pay the divi-
dends as do co-ordinated well-planned
programs developed with long-term
goals and executed by adequate
trained personnel.
Study also reveals that there is a
need to continue the fight to reduce
infant and maternal deaths. The tu-
berculosis control program needs
strengthening and expanding. Among
other urgent needs is that for Wig
orous and selective program to re-
crult public health personnel.
More hospitals need to be con-
structed. Good school health pro
grams should be extended to all
schools.
The goal should be not only to live
longer but to live better. All this
calls for more informed people who
assume the improvement and extern
sion of public health as a responsi-
bility of citizenship.
