Here we have a book that is more than just theories
1t is a documentary proof of what has happened in every
major country where socialized medicine has been instituted
and practiced, not only in modern times, but also in the
recorded pages of a dim historic past.
The author, in marshalling facts to prove his statements,
leaves us with CHASTITY realization that socalized medicine,
or compulsory medical care, is a movement so traught with
danger to mans freedom that we must think long and
seriously before yielding such sweeping powers to the State.
More than that, it leaves us with the sickenng realiza-
ton that under the gulSe of humanltarlanlSm, political groups
are seeking, through SocialiZed medicine, to create a bureau
cratic Frankenstein that will ultimately extend into every
avenue of human endeavor, from cradle to grave.
If YOU think socialized medicine will insure better health,
read in this book how the mass psychology, under such a
system, becomes infected with cronic phobias destructive to
mind and body, thus lowering a nations health status to.
levels more dangerous than has ever been experienced under
the most adverse conditions in a free society.
Nor does the medical profession itself remain unscathed.
Under socialized medicine the status of excellence of the
doctor is reduced to the lowest common denomination, which
becomes on a par with that of the inexperienced. inferno.
In England this decentralization of quality in the medical
profession has reached a stage where steps are being con-
Sidered under which a doctor may be admitted to practice
with considerable less training and education than has
hitherto been required.
proved an item definitely ruinous to a nations economic
stability. No one can clearly foresee or estimate the bill
lions of tax dollars that may be required for even the most
rigidly defined governmental health program.
Nor is the direct cost to the taxpayer the only economic
item to be considered. Socialized medicine robs the indivi-
dual of incentive and initiative, increase industrial strife,
creates greater absenteeism, fosters radicaism, and weakens
respect for law and order, thus indirectly adding billions of
dollars to the nations economic toll.
Yes, this is definitely a book all discerning Americans
should read. Every paragraph is replete with authentic in
formation, and every sentence is a challenge to those who
still believe in the American way of life.

III KERR BILL

Throughout the country there
has been much interest in the
Kerr bill and there is a general
belief that it would result in a
new law. This is wrong. In 1888
congress enacted the natural gas
act giving the federal power
commission power to regulate the
transmission of gas through big
pipe lines and control interstate
sale of gas. This was intended to
place control over great corpora
tions. Independent gas producers
were specifically exempt from
the law and have been SO exempt
for the past twelve years. A re-
cent decision of the supreme
court left some question as to
whether the original act had
been properly worded and caused
the federal power commission to
believe they might have author
ity to control independent gas
producers. The Kerr bill was in
troduced not to enact a new bill
but merely to affirm a law that
had been in operation for twelve
years. The Kerr bill could not
have resulted in increased gas
prices to the consumer for sew
eral reasons. In the first place,
on an average throughout the ma

ton, the owners of the gas well
get only five per cent Of the con-
sumer's bill. The other ninety
five per cent goes to transporta-
ton and distributing companies.
These companies, of course, pay
federal, state and local taxes out
OF their ninety-five per cent. In
the second place, Ohio has a pub
lie utilities commission which
regulates the price of gas and
which must approve increases of
gas prices. In the third place, it
is a customary practice for any
one drilling a gas well to enter
into an agreement with a dis
tributing company which sets
the price of any gas discovered
even before the well is drilled
in. In the fourth place, gas COM
panies score franchises in in
corporated villages and cities
under which, in most cases, a
formula for rate setting is eStab-
lished. In the fifth place, the in
t~erstate transportation OF gas is
now under federal regulation.
The Kerr bill was not 2 bill to
encourage an increase in the
price of gas to the consumer be-
cause it made no change in the
law as it has existed for twelve
years. 1t was a bill designed to

Then, in the Amerasia case,
there was more evidence that Sc
cret State Department documents
we're delivered to a magazine Of
flee which had strong Communist
connections. Some of those con-
cerned were let off with fines, and
another one was reinstated in the
State Department. In other words,
influential forces in the State De-
partment at best refused to regard
the delivery of papers to Commu-
nists as a serious offense. The
long proc Communist record of the
Far Eastern Division raises the
same doubt.
All that the Republican Policy
Committee has done is to insist
that this investigation be fair
and complete, and that full ac-
cess be given to the files SO that
the work of the FBI does not
have to be duplicated, which
would be almost impossible for
a Senatorial committee.
I NOTICE that some commenta-
tors credit me with being back
of the Mccarthy charges and adj
vising Senator Mccarthy. AS a
matter of fact, I never heard of
the charges until he made them.
He has never consulted me about
his course, and l have given him
no advice. 1t does seem to me that
he should present his evidence to
the Committee and that, if the
Committee considers evidence on
Mr.. A inadequate, he should pre-
sent his evidence on Mr.. B. In my
opinion the Committee should re-
ceive this evidence in secret and
only call for public hearings if it
feels that the case is substantial.
The President has charged that a
complete investigation of the State
Department by a Senatorial COM
mittee is in some way a breach of
the bipartisan foreign policy.
Even if there were now such a
policy, it certainly should not bar
criticism by the Republicans of a
prof. Communist sympathy in the
State Department itself. Instead of
opposing it, the President and the
Democrat majority ought to join
vigorously in trying to bring out
the facts and eliminate unfaithful
personnel.
Far from giving aid and COM
fort to the Kremlin, the elimina-
ton of loyalty risks from the
Department would be a serious
handicap to the future opera
tons of the Communist Party in
this country.

Take the 18th congressional
district of which Noble county is
the heart. At present Cong. Bob
Secrest is the spokesman in the
House for Noble, Washington,

for approximately 100000 people.
You soon will be hearing that
certain other Ohio congressman

tical science and other students
of government that such situa-
tons should be equalized.
The new census is expected to
report Ohio's population at about
5000, 000. There are % Ohio con-
gressmen. So, on the average,
each congressman represen t S
about $500 people.
Population has shifted greatly
in Ohio since congressional dis

has been from rural areas to in

~ CONGRESSMAN
Bob Secrest

An unusual resolution quickly
passed the House and Senate by
unanimous vote this week, and,
in my opinion, expresses the
overall feelings of the American
people against Communism in
general and Russia in particular.
Ten Navy flyers in an unarmed
plane were making a legitimate
flight over the Baltic Sea. With
out provocation or reason this
plane was attacked by Russian
fighter planes over international
waters and shot down, according
to all available information dis
covered by the state department
and our department of national
defense. The Russians decorated
the fighter pilots who pa~rtici-
pated in this act of cold blooded
murder. The senate and house
has voted to award posthumous
decorations to the ten navy flyers
ana dlrected the secretary of the
navy to convey congressional
condolences to the families of the
deceased and to express graft
tude for their gallantry and de-
votion to duty. The resolution
was intended not only as a de-
served recognition of the families
and flyers, but as a COMPRESSION
al notice TO Russia that the con-
gress of the United States is I'M
animous and united in its OPP
position to Communist aggres-
sion. International law means
no more to Stain than it did to
Hitler and TOTO. No nation in the
world can be secure until inter
nation law is respected by every
one.
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1950-05-04

In some advocated plans, ii
may be suggested that the 10th
district be abolished, its counties
distributed among adjacent dis
trictS. Such a method might add
Perry and Athens counties to the
18th. Or it might be feasible to
increase the population of Bob
Secrest'S territory by transferring
Belmont county to the 18th.
These are merely mentioned as
possibilities.
Changes, if any, will be legis-
lated by Ohio's general assembly.
Usually, office holders resist any
change. Once a congressman has
successfully campaigned his dis
trict, he does not welcome add
ing or losing territory. Maintain
ing the status quo seems to be
a keynote in American politics.
In 1910, and previous census
years, no changes were made. 1t
can be expected that incumbents
will oppose any boundary
switches, advancing various rea-
sons with some of them un-
doubtedly worth consideration.
An even better illustration of
the ancient vintage of u poll
teal districts is the ,manner in
which Noble countyt is repre-
sented in the upper chamber of
the Ohio legislature.
Part of Noble county is in one
district; part in another. The rea-
son: The districts were set up
before Noble county was created
in 1851. The Ohio constitution
erected these districts. Since,
some have been combined. Cues
tons about them have gone to
the state supreme court for de-
cision. To modernize them would
be a still harder job. Probably
would require a constitutional
convention.
Yet, the expected proposal for
redistricting plays second fiddle
in worry sessions of politicians.

politicians all over Ohio are ask
ing themselves.
The new-type ballot, eliminat-
ing the easy way of voting a
straight ticket, is designed to
help elect the better candidate.
This should help candidates in
southern Ohio, for, generally
speaking, they have names with
vote-getting qualities. S ecrest t,
Jenkins, Ferguson, Ray, James,
Philpot, Mckee, O'Neil, to name
a few. All of them have a true
American ring.

shall give said individual open
hearings" In the second place, the
resolution adopted by a Democrat
controlled Senate, while a result
of the Mccarthy charges, does not
mention those charges and puts
upon the Subcommittee an indie
pendent duty "to conduct a full
and complete study and investiga-
ton as to whether persons who are
disloyal to the United States are
or have been employed by the De-
partment of State" The Commit
tee has the duty to make an indie
pendent affirmative investigation
and certainly up to this time it has
done no such thing.
The majority seem to have
been more interested in hamper
ing Senator Mccarthy than in
carrying out the investigation.
Last week, however, the Com
mittee agreed that the minority
members could have counsel,
and they have employed two
fi~rst-class lawyers as cO-counsel.
This will permit a much more
complete investigation and pres
entation of the facts than has
been given by the hit-0r-miss
action of the Committee up to
this time.
THROUGHOUT the investiga-
ton, the Republican Policy
Committee has only urged that
the investigation be complete. The
Democrat-controlled Senate itself
evidently considered that there is
prima facie evidence to justify it
or it would never have adopted the
resolution. Obviously there were
Communists in the State Depart
ment when Hiss and Wadleigh
were passing out confidential State
Department documents to Com
