TIME LOST
FROM ILLNESS
Young People Lose More
Time From Work Than
Do Older Men
SEEK HEALTH BENEFIT

Young persons lose more time
from work because of illness than
do older men and women, accord
ing to a recent survey among
employees of the Du Pont COM
pany. In the 24-29 age bracket,
So per cent of all employees had
a time-losing illness last year.
Among those in the 36-4O bracket,
only 33 per cent had lost time,
while in the $3.50 bracket it was
40 per cent. In all groups, most
missed less than a week. A
typical family of four spends
about $500 a year on medical
bills, including insurance, and this
is bolstered by the health services
and protection which the COM
pany provides each employee. An
nual physical examinations, basic
research in industrial medicine,
special attention to such problems
as alcoholism, and other activi-
ties have all worked toward bet
ter health. Disability wages,
which Du Pont pioneered II
years ago, provide normal pay
for three months, eliminating
loss of income during prolonged
illness. Other company-paid plans
cover hospital and surgical care
for employees. The company's
total bill for these services is in
excess of s12,0O0,O 900. For the ma
tion as a whole, illness each year
costs the average person 500
loss of pay plus $40 or more in
medical care. Thus the average Du
Pont employee and his family
have much more than proper
tionate share of the medical care
available. He also lost less time
from work. The average u. S.
Worker loses rs days of work a
year because of illness or nom
occupational accident. The aver
age Du Pont employee loses only
4.3 days from the same causes.
A cardinal factor in the Du Pont
employees health record is the
company's emphasis on preventive
medicine. A corps of 166 doctors,
six scientists, and about $50
nurses and technicians conducts
this program. Annual physical
examinations for all employees
and periodic checks for certain
employees in particular jobs are
designed to prevent illness by
keeping close watch on general
health and spotting trouble early.
Further than that, the company
undertakes pioneering research in
preventive medicine, exploring
areas such as physical fatigue
and probing the fundamentals of
better health for men and women
in industry. The survey covered
1.190 married and, 281 single en-
ployees of company plants at
Chicago, ILL.,, Rochester and New
burgh, New York. and the Wilm-
ington, DEL, Shops. More than Sc
per cent of them had no occasion
to call a doctor for themselves
during the year but 81 per cent
summoned one for family illness
for which the doctor made an
average of rs calls during the
year. Medicine and drugs cost an
average of SIC for employees who
kept records of what they spent.
Just 20 per cent of the employees
saw a dentist last year; 40 per
cent more than once. Up to age

STRANGE TTIAT the loud and persistent communists

STRANGE THAT the loud and persistent Communist
instrumentation of prejudice and discrimination in democra-
tic America should be one Of the strongest factors boosting
The efforts Of Thurgood Marshall, special agent for the Ma
A.CP~ Head of the legal department of the NAACP.
since 1888, in his magnificent fight against racial bias,
Attorney Marshall has previously argued seventeen
cases before the 7. S. Supreme Court, thirteen Of which he
won. -Four Of his victories, considered the cornerstone of the
Negroes civil rights, include banishing Of white primaries,
racial housing covenants, segregation IN interstate tanspor-
tation and the admission Of colored students to state profes-
sional schools. His latest triumph will be considered a major
success.

this should be a good clean omen.

THE INDEFATIGABLES

ANY TYPE Of segregation is gross mockery of the Con-
stitution. Separating colored children Of similar ages and
qualifications, wholly because Of their origin, creates an en-
barrassing status in their community and aggravates an infer
iority 50 complex as to affect their hearts and minds. Accept
ing this premise, the Justices Of the Y. S Supreme Court re-
Gently handed down a decision ending segregation in the
Souths public school system. Latest ~spearhead in our internal
cold war for a 100 per cent democracy, the ruling has stolen
the show and the Civil Rights Bill and F.EP.C. have had to
take a back seat.
IT WAS NOT accomplished in a day. Opposition was
stubborn and there were endless setbacks and headaches.
The results hold great promise, however for outlawed segre-
cation will ultimately revoutionize the position of the colored
man in the South, and also zoom the estimation Of the United
States of America in the eyes Of the world. The ramficahons
Of the significant step will be manifold, varied and far-reach-
ing. Pregnant with power to wipe out the ugly stain that has
shamed the greatest country on earth, they will stem the
sneering accusations of the Reds who have used the dark
fact as prime propaganda in their attempt to turn the colored
man against his eounFy.
