Description: "Now for the first time in the history of our country, a committee appointed by President Roosevelt has drafted a health program, to be realized within ten years. To the millions who are still ill-fed, ill-clothed and ill-housed, this comes as a life-saver. The National Health Conference in Washington, called by the President's Interdepartmental Committee to Coordinate Health and Welfare Activities (July 18-20) proposed this New Deal plan to care for the sick and suffering, but, above all, to prevent disease."--Pages 5-6.
