While all agree that something should llwne to bring adequate medical care to the lower j|$Ofcie groups, the remedies suggested are almost as ,• Varied as the medicines in the pharmacopoeia. f- ; The American Medical Association has recogniz- tijed the problem, but is officially on record as opposed § the Wagner Health Hill, which in effect would put B medical profession under the political control of aghington and compel the state to set up systems of V&eaical insurance in which doctors would be paid •\hirelings of the state. The association has proposed a Substitute plan, in which primary responsibility for Mlblie health would rest with local governments rat- Air than with federal authority. ^-•' Dr. Nathan B. VanKtten, president-elect of the ISOciation, put the mater well in a discussion tho . ,§her night when he said: \Unless we are ready to ac- j.lclpt-complete totalitarianimn, I believe that an Am- lioncah health program should operate from the perip- plhery toward the center. Needs for help should be dis- covered in the Hmallent political subdivision, such as Vk school district, then referred to the township, to the county, to the ntat<\ to the federal authority in ^hat order, and the federal authority should be called ilpon a^ Infrequently as possible.\ • U The grave defect in the Wagner BilJ is that it JSDIIOWB the familuir New Deal path of federal super- vision, through bureaus, of intimate matters that be- \ ihg primarily to the local districts. If the problem of , .Jwical care for the lower income groups is to be sol- ved, it seems much more likely that it will bo solved by Voluntary participation by small units, than by blan- mt compulsion from above. I Now that the medical profession itself has diag- sod the problem, admitted its seriousness and sen- d the strong public sentiment toward some form of odfcal Insurance for those not able to pay for medi- care, the matter may be left in its hands more |fely than in the hands of politicians at Washington. NO REAL SHORTAGE •€> Th0 quota system for sugar, suspended by the resJ4e#t during the rush of sugar buying at the out- tfeak of the European war, has now been restored. .'hat there is no real shortage to be feared was con- clusively provided for this important foodstuff. Cuba can now supply much more sugar than 20 years ago. Our own domestic supply is larger. The difficulty of bringing sugar from Hawaii and the Far East is not likely to prove so acute as in 1917-1920, Wheat has advanced in price since the war began. Even cotton has moved up a little, despite huge sup= plies on hand. Yet Britian is buying most of her wheat from Canada and in a normal crop year we have some for export above domestic needs. World copper supplies and, in particular, British Empire supplies, are much greater than in the former crisis. As nearby suppliers of raw materials we shall probably see some increased demands for basic com- modities, in addition to the sharp increase in orders for airplanes. Yet if we ourselves keep out of war and can \man- age our domestic economy more wisely than of late, so that excess of government outlay over revenue will not threaten inflation, consumers should not face ex- cessive price advances even if the European conflict continues a long time. LAKES NEED THE WATER NEWS EVENTS OF OTHER DAYS Looking Backward Through the Years ADVICE TO STRANGERS The f following advice is from u widely circulated ication of the year lH7l>, found by researchers of New York City WPA Writers' Project, and is Mod advice today: R '% \First in entering a large town where you want f$0, and if unused to traveling, roach the city in the jtytime. Have little to say or do with good-natured |opl© who are anxious to give you advice and ussis- |nce. On reaching the depot and landing take the le of cars or stages running near your stopping lace. If you take a carriage your trunk or valise may kompany you. If not, leave it checked and send for 'If you.make inquiries on the ntreet apply to a pol- |man, or go into a store or hotel. Have a little money Ithin easy reach and securely conceal all the rest, joughon a tour of observation be not anxious to see Brything. You can make nothing and leurn nothing gfmo/ck auctions, dance-houses, and fashionable gam- ing houses. Pay no atention to men who exhibit a Met book or bank bills they \have just found.'' Be ibnil about long trips in the evening, unattended, m through the best streets, and hv (lav and night aid, as far as possible, all crowds. 'Every hotel has safe where valuables may be deposited free of krge.

Here's the way he figures it. The treaty would re- inforce restrictions on diversion of water from Lake Michigan. That would reduce possible flow down the Illinois River into the Mississippi system, hampering Lakes-to-Gulf waterway development, which Senator Lucas affirms would boom mid wist trade with Latin America. That's a highly hypothetical argument. Against it can be set certain obvious facts. The water is needed for navigation between Lake Union and Lake Erie und for power development at Niagara before the St. Lawrence is reached. Finally, the St. Lawrence water- way would be the deep type for large vessels, the type that pays; the Lakc-to-d'ulf the shallow type that wastes public money. Let the (Jreat Likes keep their water. They need and can use it profitably, with or without St. Law- rence development. One year Ago 1938 A L Swett gets order for 2,000 World Fair park benches. George A.

Since' the beginning of the war 288 persons have been killed in seven accidents on German railroads. Hut even before the outbreak of hostilities the roads were in bad condition. When the Nazis come into power they found a railroad system which had relatively the smallest in- debtedness of any in the world. They used the credit of,the railroads to increase the borrowing power of the government. In the first three years of Hitler's regime German railroads provided work for 300,000 persons in addition to their regular personnel—this as part of the Nazi program of creating work for the unemployed. That proved costly to the roads. Then, under the orders from the government; the railroads defrayed almost entirely the cost of constructing 4,000 miles of auto highways which were thrown into competition with them. Compelled to shoulder these burdens the railroads soon exhausted their reserves. and operating incomes, lagged far behind the normal figure. Furthermore, the Nazi aims program made it impossible for the railroads to obtain new rolling stock even when funds wew available, x, Having played an important part in advancing the Naai program, the German railroads now are pav- ing the price of their enforced cooperation in detiora- tion of equipment, declining incomes, and accidents 25 Years Ago 1914 George A Newell, Ji , appointed Senator Thompsons \.ecirtary at Albany Mis (5 K Kponnci piesident of Woman's Hospital Association Other officers were Mrs C.
