insure clients at reasonable rates, and
improvements are being made in the
type Of coverage constantly. We can
see no good reason for the government
to usurp private enterprise in this
field
Government participation would lead
to construction of more government hos
pitfalls at the cost of billions and finally
to socialized medicine. Neither of which
is in the best interests Of the people of
this nation.
Admittedly, there are hardship cases
but it is the responsibility Of the nurs-
ing and medical professions to solve
the problems, not a paternalistic gov
eminent. There is no end to government
usurpation when it begins. This program
should be stopped before it begins, and
the problem left to the medical profess
sion, health and hospital association
and private insurance companies.

Socialized Medicine or Pork Barrel

DIANS to provide medical care for
those over IS years of age would
cost the taxpayers $1,000, 100000 a year
under President Eisenhower's program
now before Congress. The Democrats
have a plan for which the cost has not
been determined In either plan the
public would pay, the physicians would
be regimented for socialized medicine,
and the politician would have another
pork barrel
The Administrations program is a
limited federal-state one, which involves
participation in payment by most in
dividuals, and which provides for only
partial coverage of medical costs. How
ever it would not be financed by an
increase in social security taxes - as
Democratic programs would
The Eisenhower program, it was re-
vealed, would cost s1,20O,0O0, 100000 a
year, and would insure persons over
slxty-five years of age who We're on
public assistance (relief) without cost.
Others eligible for the insurance would
pay an annual fee of S240O per person.
Single persons with incomes of up
to S2,500.OO, and married couples with
incomes up to 100000 would be eligible
for the coverage. Those with higher in
comes not. This is, of course, a con-
troversial point, for some programs
would cover everyone, and the Eisen-
hover Administration program is de-
signed to cover only those who cannot
afford to take care of themselves.
Secretary Arthur S. Flemming, of
the Health, Education and Welfare De-
partment, says the Eisenhower program
would cover some 12,5OO,OOO persons
of the 100000 who are now over
sixty-five.
The insurance policy" to be given
those would provide that the govern
ment pay 500 of annual medical ex-
penses for doctors, hospitals, and other
specified care, when expenses exceeded
$4,000 for single person, or $4,000
for couples. (This is another limitation
on the Administration program.)
The state and local governments are
now taking care of the medically indi-
gent from local funds. Any such pro-
gram should be administered on the
local level. Local people know the needs
and can do practical job of relief. The
medical profession is now taking care

IL The days of rugged in

had little use for committees or

he would not join the National

a position to go it alone, be-
cause they had some original
ideas and were patient enough
to work them.
1 Believe In Cooperation
The story of advancing civil
cation, however. is record of
mans Willingness to cooperate.
The Trade Association Directory
prepared by the U. S. Depart

there were 5000 regional and

NO COMMENT

WASHINGTON, May II = The
sizzling controversy over legis-
lation to provide hospital, nurs-
ing home and surgical care for
the elderly became even more
heated following submission Of
the Administration program.
Just what Congress finally
agrees or - if an agreement is
reached - is more certain than
ever to be the subject of lively
debate extending through the
1860 political c.mpaign.
There is no doubt that this has
become the No. | issue before
the present session of Congress
and the repercussions can have
far-reaching effects upon the ma
tons future.
The Administrator program
- its answer to the Forand bill
advocates was described by
HEW Secretary Flemming as
voluntary Federal-state arrange
ment to provide assistance to
the elderly at maximum cost
Of So billion a year. half to be
paid BY the Federal Government
and half by the states.
The bill. by Rep. Forand ID
R.I.D applies to social security
/ beneficiarieS and the social
| security tax would be increased
from three per cent to three and
one-fourth per cent on both en-
ployers and employees.
Major differences between the
two proposals include these:
L. The Administration plan
would be available to everyone
over s. whose annual income did
not exec e d $500. Secretary
Flemming said this would cover
about II million of the nation s
Is million persons over IS. The
remaining 4 million would be
those with an income greater
than So. 500.
! The Forand bill would apply to
( all social security beneficiaries
regardless Of income but would
exclude million persons over
IS who are not covered by social
security.
! 2. Cost of the Administration
program would be met from gen
eral Treasury revenue. There
! would be no special tax or as
sessment. Cost of the Forand bill
would be met, in part at least.

Plan "Wade-In" CAMPAIGN

NAACP will press for full use of public
~ beaches this summer in "wade-in'
campaign. Roy Wilkins, NAACP ex.
ecutive secretary, agreed that "the humid
reds of miles of coast line should not
be shut to them"
This is in line with the published
program of the NAACP in it's Target
for 1868; we quote:
"Objective No. 6
mo. G-Public Accommodations. Even in
states with civil rights legislation Negroes are
denied accommodations in hotels, restaurants.
theatres bars. movie houses, barber shop and
such recreational facilities as skating Kinks,
bowling alleys, golf courses, tennis courts,
parks and Fairgrounds.
Such determinations are primarily of local
origin Our local branches and state con-
ferences will work to secure enactment of
civil rights legislation will encourage
Negroes to seek to use public accommodations
conduct campaigns of public education
and on occasion, will picket offending
places of business -
Objective No. is now being sough
with "sit-ins' and then "wade-ins'. L
would seem to US that there is enough
beach on the coast line for everyone anC
that no person need push himself where
he is not wanted. Pursuance of this
course will undoubtedly lead to com
plete breakdown in goodwill between
the races, with serious results for all
