Senators Support Kaiser's Proposed Pre-paid Medicine Would Provide Bank Loans to Organizations SAN FRANCISCO, July 19 (UP) Henry Kaiser, west coast industrialist, has obtained sena torial support for a bill providing for establishment of voluntary systems of prepaid medical caro throughout the country, the San Francisco Chronicle said today. An amendment to the national housing act whereby the federal housing agency would administer financing of individual projects will be introduced by Sen. Claude Pepper, D Fla., the pa per said. Kaiser said he had conferred with Senators Pepper, Lister Hill., D., Ala., James Murray, D., Mont., and Robert Taft, R., Ohio. He said "their questions indicated tney had no serious objections to the plan." The measure provides FHA guaranteed bank loans to groups, such as physicians, labor, man agement, labor-management and states, who wish to set up facili ties for prepaid medical care; technical assistance by the U. S. public health service in determ inin'tho Yieed and likelffl'dbd'o'f" success for the individual pro ject; limitations barring the FHA administration from exercising supervision or control over the project; preference from using existing public or private facili ties. Kaiser said the' prepaid medi cal plans will operuto as business enterprises, motivated by the impelling force of competition. "This is not sociaized medicine in the sense of a social experi ment," he added. ' t Morse Makes His Daily Speech On OPA Inadequacy WASHINGTON, July lfl -Sen.

William Fulbright, D., Ark., who was sitting nearby, asked: Do I understand the senator is going to talk abnut Oregon lambs?" 'I shall not disappoint the sen ator," Morse replied. "That's is exactly what I'm going '.o talk about." So Morse aeain tnlrt hie nl. It agues, as he has for several days. How OPA has "bungled" the lamb problem! The Oregon senator has prom ised to speak daily on OPA in adequacy until he gels action. NECKLESS Toads and frogs have no necks and cannot turn their heads.
