The new spaper m an we know reports overhearing at a ban
quet an aeross-the-table. between-speeches conversation between
a railroad executive and an electric appliance m anufacturer.
One of them was telling of a la rg e -hosiery mill th at is behind
production because it c a n ’t get enough laborers.
“ Thgy have gone back to the farm ” he said. “ Thousands
of skilled men have cone and th e y 're not coming back as fast
as industry would like to see them do so. They found th a t the
farm w ouldn’t let them down. The same c a n ’t be said about in
dustry, for indtisfry definitely did let them down in a big w ay.”
“ Gone back to the fa rm .” according to those men. is a sign
th a t could be hung in m any of the vacant spots in industry.

sarily pro«hic< s cmisid« i abb confusion in the public mind.
The tn<dial profession is not. as some seem to believe, stub
bornly opposed to efforts of governm ent to aid the sick ami
diseased. It h eartily approves of such efforts when legitim ate
and sound. It supports governm ent hospitals when« priv ate faci
lities are lacking—su p p o rts governm ent medical aid o f those
afflicted with m ental and nervous diseases—su p p o rts the long
established, excellent work done by the public health service.
Since 1x74. su rp risin g as it may seem, the Am erican Medi
cal Association has repeatedly urged the establishm ent of a F ed
eral departm ent of health with a secretary who shall be a doc
to r of medicine and a m em ber of the P re sid e n t’s cabinet. It has
invariably offered w holehearted cooperation in developing effi
cient and economical ways and m eans of expanding public
health a n d m aternal and child health services.
W hat. then, does the medical profession—along w ith quali
fied laym an—oppose !
It opposes political ventures in the medical field which
would inevitably and rapidly reduce public health stan d ard s—
and destroy or ham per essential work in the battle against dis
ease. Political dom ination of the medical profession would mean
th at a d o c to r’s political pull was more im portant than his abili
ties as a practitioner. It would mean th at medicine would be
come a great new field for political patronage. Thus, it would
mean unnecessary deaths, unnecessary suffering, unnecessary
illness.
A d o c to r’s p arty lahcl has no influence on his expertness at
diagnosis and prognosis. But under socialized medicine, the
p a rty label would come first. The “ spoils system ” would invade
the public health.

In San Francisco last week there " a s a case of delinquency!
which is probably typical of many instances. Nine young nteuj
were arraig n ed before the superior court on charge o f commit-!
ting theft When the ease was called only th ree of the nine p a r
ents involved thought the charge was serious enough to appear
in court. Six did not appear and when questioned by a news
paper rep o rter adm itted that they seldom knew and eared less

p arents express«..1 tin opinion tin ir sons should bo able to take
care of i b-n relv cs in u>->st any situation. They com plained that
school authoriti. s ..nd «»fibers did not e»x»p« rate properly ami
many instances w eren’t s tric t enough in the discipline mcetod
out to the jounirsti-rs.
In other "«»ids. it was no concern of the parents what be
came of tboi. s- ns. Tin se p arents depended entirely on the
schools to tra in their children and complain because the schools
have fallen down on the job.
This a ttitu d e taken by many of the parents today is what
creates th e problem of youth delinquency.
