English Medical Plan Farce
Salem Woman Thinks
While back In Washington the administration has been urging
adoption of socialized medicine, and about the country John Q
Public has been hearing talks for and against the program. One
Salemite, Lucile Schwichtenberg, had an opportunity to observe
the plans of both England and Norway.
In England Miss Schwichten
berg had an actual experience
with the system. Hearing of the
United States' plan for its health
program while away. Miss
Schwichtenberg, in a letter to
Mrs. Robert W. Shattuc, told
of her impression of the medi
cal plans of both Norway and
England and of her experience
in England.
"I've read in some of the
newspaper clippings my father
sends me that President Tru
man is doing his best to pass
a health bill. I can only say
about the health bill what I
say about communism to re
ally know what it is you have
to live with it.
"Having Just come from three
months in Norway, I find the
English Medical system a farce.
Sounds Good, But
"They have a national health
plan in Norway. You pay so
much a month according to the
amount of your income. It
sounds like a wonderful plan,
but there are exceptions to ev
ery rule. There you are allow
ed to have only your first baby
in a hospital, unless you are
considered dangerously ill. And
even in a home delivery you are
not allowed a doctor, but have
to be content with a nurse.
"There is a dreadful shortage
of doctors; for the simple reas
on that they are over-run with
appointments by women who
have nothing wrong with them,

but who, for the first time in
their lives, feel they can afford
to pay him a visit. Naturally
you can't blame a doctor for be
coming disgusted and refusing
patients. Of course, there is al
ways the argument that people
who can't afford to visit their
doctor will be able to receive
needed attention.
"This is true in England
where all doctors are under so
cial medicine, but where they
have a bill similar to health in
surance. Only those who pay
into it benefit by it.' Therefore,
people who are unemployed can
not receive free aid, contrary
to popular belief.
Personal Experience
"I had one small experience
with the English system. I had
the misfortune to break a tooth
in my bridge, and after trying
five doctors finally found one
ancient man who, using the tac
tics of a well educated horse
doctor and about two hours of
my time, succeeded in providing
me with a reasonable facsimile
of a tooth charge, one guinea

Of the five dentists visited.
one was sitting in nis omce
reading a magazine and frankly
told me he was too 'damm busy'
to fix my tooth. One claimed It
was something new that the
English hadn't progressed that
far in bridgework. One was just
closing up for lunch. The other
two admitted it was out of their
line, they just did fillings and
extractions. My dentist at home
could have fixed my tooth in
10 minutes and I could have
had a white tooth.
"False teeth are provided, but
it takes approximately 12 long
months to get them, and mean
while you run around toothless.
They've never heard tell of any
one having teeth put in the same
day they make the extractions.
Getting glasses takes about the
same length of time, unless you
loosen up with a little cash on
the side.
Efficiency Reduced
'Due to increase of appoint
ments by women with too much
time, etc., is is practically im
possible to get an appointment
for legal reasons. Here, as In
Norway, second confinements
are not accepted by hospital ex
cept under extreme emergencies.
Midwives assist in births and
they are not allowed to give an
anesthetic.
"You still run into some peo
ple who applaud the bill, but
the majority of the people find
it does not fit their needs as
they had expected.
"Medical men are very much
against it. On the whole, it has
a tendency to decreas their ef
ficiency when a doctor is go
ing to receive the same amount
of money for talking to 15 wo
men about their trouble as he
will for giving five men actual
treatment, naturally he has a
