A R I T H I — Problems of designing, build ing and paying for Oregon’s roads and streets — both from the engineering and taxpaying standpoints — will be discussed at the second annual roads and streets conference at Oregon S. C. Jones & Sons darn If . A Current legislative developments give that quest ion pertinence. The strongest kind of pressure has been exerted on behalf of the compulsory health insurance bill. However, so much public opposition has developed that its sponsors think other tactics may prove more fruitful for the time being. * As an example the Senate has passed and the House may soon vote on a bill, which has received rela tively little attenion, authorizing Federal grants-in-aid to medical schools. Under the terms of it, the Surgeon General would decide what schools were to get the money, in what order, and in what amounts. He would work with a council, but its function would be advisory only. All the real power of action and decision would be vested in one man. The medical schools would have to come to him, in the scramble for funds. If the government pays the bill—in this or any other matter—the government is eventually going to give the orders. That is inevitable. Such a measure, innocuous as it may seem to some, would be a perfect starting point for legislation which would subject our Road And Street Problems medical schools to political administration in all phases To Be Aired At OSC Meet of their activity. OREGON STATE COLLEGE Still another measure which has passed the Senate and is now in the House would make the government responsible for the physical and mental health of all school children between five and 17. That may have an appealing sound—yet can anyone doubt that it would become a plank in the house of socialized medicine? The point is that socialism usually comes to nati ons on a piecemeal basis. These bills indicate the plan to be used in this countrv. Why Scoop No Longer Works Here “ Remember how mud I got when I found out you were w riting that •lection ito ry right from your dealt?” I asked him. "And how I made you get out and learn wliut a sheriff's job was all about?" “ I sure do, Joe," said Scoop.
