10 HEALTH STAFF;
LOAD IS AT PEAK
Dr. Harvey A. Woods, Ashland phy
sician, to now serving as county dep
uty health officer with a nominal
aalary, and Dr. Harold B. Olllla la
continuing under temporary appoint
ment as assistant to Dr. A. N. John
aon. county health officer.
Dr. Olllla la assisting In the med
ical and surgical treatment of the
county's Indigent realdenta during 'ho
period when the health department
la most severely taxed. Dr. Johnson
explained. The maximum number of
cases la Invariably recorded during
December. January and February, he
stated.
Dr. Woods, on the other hand, Is
devoting hi time solely to public
health work which. Dr. Johnson
pointed out, is concerned only with
preventive medicine. He Is serving
Ashland and the Immediate vicinity
leaving Dr. Johnson free to take care
of the rest of the county, it having
been found practically Impossible for
one health officer to meet tne re'
nuirementa of the entire county, It
was explained.
When the notional social security
legislation becomes effective and
funds are made available, it la plan
ned to employ a sanitary Inspector
In order to bring the health depart
ment ataff up to the minimum stand
ard recommended by publlo health
authorities, Dr. Johnson aald. adding
that a aanltary Inspector Is greatly
needod here.
When compared with other depart
ments, the county health department
la operating on an exceedingly email
budget. Dr. Johnson emphasized,
pointing out that the allotment for
public health work amount roughly
to only 2 cents per capita.
"Modern scientific work haa placed
In our hands the tool for the con
trol of communicable diseases and
has blazed tho tralla that will lead
to the discovery of the causes and
ways and meona to control the re
maining ones." Dr. Johnson said.
"We do not lack the knowledge of
ways to reduce the Infant and ma
ternal mortality. Even heart disease,
cancer and nephritis are yielding
some of their secrets.
"But In spite of the progress that
has been made, a large percentage cf
our people remain without the essen
tial public health aervlcea. Undoubt
edly Inadequate appropriations and
the lack of public health education
are the primary causes for this sad
commentary on our social Judgment.
"Public health haa become a spe
cialized field and requires a high de
gree of technical knowledge and skill.
But due to the lack of proper ap
propriations many men with excellent
qualifications go Into other fields that
yield compensation in proportion wj
their skill.
"In Jackson oounty. as elsewhere,
the public health expendlturea are
ridiculously low as compared with the
, other public services.
"Public health Is concerned primar
ily with prevention and only Inci
dentally with diagnosis and treat
ment. There haa been a trend, how
ever, to Include medical relief as a
responsibility of the health depart
ment. While close cooperation be
tween health activities and charity
la essential,' nevertheless the two
functions are separate and distinct
and tt behooves the health depart
ment to preserve this free from pub
llo confusion."

REVISED POLICY
ON ALIEN QUOTA
ENGAGES CANADA n
OTTAWA (UP) A new policy to
ward Immigration may be developed
by the Canadian government.
Immigration haa declined to one of
the lowest levels In history, and agi
tation Is arising In favor of reopening
Canada's doors to British and other
immigrants.
In the six months of the past fiscal
year, only 6.570 immigrants entered
the country. This was 12 percent less
than in the corresponding period last
year, Of the total, 1.373 were British;
3,049 came from the United States.
342 from northern Europe and 1,810
from other countries.
In recent years, largely because of
unemployment, Immigration from all
parts of the world has been discour
aged by the government.
Even immigration wnicn was De
signed for the agricultural areas was
not promoted because of representa
tions that the farm problem In many
parts of the country was serious and
that It would be aggravated by any
Influx of immigrants. Associations
which were formed to stimulate Brit
ish migration, while not Impeded, got
little assistance. Organized labor In
sisted upon the ban being strictly
applied.
Many Influential Interests argue
that the problems of Canada, espe
cially those of taxation, are too heavy
to bo borne by 10.000.000 people and
that the only way to lighten the bur
den Is to open the doors to more pro
ducers and consumers. The represen
tations went unheeded white the con
servative government ot R. B. Ben
nett was In office.
It Is understood that the new lib
eral government under Prime Minis
ter Mackenzie King may adopt a dif
ferent view. The question Is likely to
be Introduced at the forthcoming In-ter-provlnclal
conference since the
cooperation of the various provinces
would bo necessary In the event of
any large movement of Immigrants
Into Canada.

President Roosevelt passed questions
on his bonus views.
Harrison said he did not know
whether the bill for the full 1045
value of the bonus certificates In
blocks of $50 bonds cashable next
June or to be held as investments
for nine years, would be signed by
tne president.
"The president has made no state

The Mlsslsslpplan told Senator Has

difference between tne pending bill
and the Patman Inflation measure ve

He told how he and Senator Rob

House and senators' offices" In an ef

agreed with Couzens In committee
that the bill would pay the veterans
$1,000,000,000 more than under ex

Harrison did not reply, but several
senators tried to answer for him,
without replying directly.
"If w centered into contract with
the veterans which they agnvj upon
themselves, then I see no reason for
changing that contract," Couzens
said, referring to the law passed In
1024 giving the veterans 2-year cer

LISTED BY BENET;
NEW HAVEN, Conn. (UP) Pros
pective authors should not under
estimate the difficulty of a writing
career, cautions Stephen St. Vincent
Benet, outstanding American poet
and author of "John Brown's Body."
' "Although writing is really a dif
ficult process, most people think they
are potential novelists," the author
aald.
"There are many who believe in
the Inspirational or untaught song
bird theory about authors. Accord
ing to this, an author is a kind of
wire: and If you run enough elec
tricity Into him he'll turn on a light.
The reaction of an author to a situ
ation is like that of a slot machine.
Actually, Inspiration Is the. molten
metal of literature, but unless there
Is a mold for the metal In the writ
er's mind, It Is splashed about and
wasted."
Benet, who was chairman of the
Tale Literary magazine when a Yale
undergraduate, said the greatest ne
cessity for a writer Is const saut cu
riosity concerning the personality ot
everyone with whom he comes la
contact. But he also must have
time to find out in what fields he
can write to best effect. He recalled,
that when Sinclair Lewis was at Yale,
be was writing about knights and
troubadours.
"An author Is fortunate to realize
$700 a year from his writings," Benet
asserted. "On the other sand, one
successful book might make as much,
as $70,000."
National socialism haa spread,
among Germans living abroad, with.
500 different party groups In many
lands having been organized.
