PAGE EIGHT PHYSICIANS HEAP P TELLS ROTARY OF OF ORCHARD CASE ON HEALTH PLAN American Medical Associa tion President Says Gov ernment Program Would Not Work Rebel Replies WASHINGTON. July 20. (IP) Officials of the American Medical asoclatlon heaped criticism today on a presidential committee's recom mendation for an anoo.ouo.uuu unv ernment health program. The far-reaching venture, proposed to the national health conference yesterday, would have two general -alms: 1. It would expand general public health facilities, try to eradicate tu berculoela, venereal diseases and mi larla and to control pneumonia and cancer 'deaths, and develop maternal and child health centers. 3, It would um some state, local and federal funds to build hospltas. maintain free beds, and glvs grants- in-aid for researoh. Italses Dispute. Presentation of the proposal by a committee on medical cars appointed by President Roosevelt atarted Mi Immediate dupute. Dr. Irvln Abell of Louisville, Ky, president of the A. M. A., termed the program unworkable. Dr. Hugn Cabot of the Mayo clinic, Rocneswr, Minn., a leader of the "rebel" group In the medical association, replied: "Maintenance of the standards of medical practice by the medical pro fession as at present organized has been grossly unsatisfactory." Dr. Olln West, secretary of the A M. A., and Dr. Morris Flshbeln, editor of the association's Journal. Jolnw Dr. Abell In preparing a more com plot criticism of the proposal. Requirements Vary. In his first comment. Dr. Abell argued that further studies were needed because medical requirements varied widely In different localltlio He added: "Those people who think that they can devise a centrally controlled mod leal service plan which can be fitted to the varying conditions of the state, counties and cities of this country are discussing theories which no practical health administrator could possibly approve." Dr. Cabot said he did not feel much confidence In the results of the A. M. A. survey of medical nooua. lie niwerted thousands of persons lacked medical caro Willie thousanda nt young physicians "are starving to dttn-tli." Clifford B. Waller, assistant iui geon-general of the public health service, presented a port of the pro gram dtnllng with expansion of gen eral health services which alone would provide up to (100.000.000 an nually for publlo health medical care during the next seven years. Under the program, t33.000.000 would be spent In strengthening puh- llo health departments In states and counties; a.43.000.000 for the control of tuberculosis; a47.0O0.0O0 for con trol of vonereal diseases; taa.OOO.OOO for the rnduotlon of pneumonia mor tality: $33,000,000 for cancer control; 10,000.000 for malaria control; 910.. ooo, for dental hygiene, and 30,oofv 000 for Industrial hygiene. Huge Infant Life Waste. In an analysis of the general health program, Dr. Martha M. Eliot, assist ant chief of the chlldrrn'a bureau, asserted that "today there la a great and Infanetsoshrdliie shrriluctaoshr and Infant life," much of wh'.cli could be previmted. As msny as 70.000 lives could be saved oach year, she said, under the proposed health program In which the federal government would spend the first yesr ai.aoo.OOO for maternity care, S3.000.0O0 for medical care of children and .3.000,000 for services for crippled children. These funds could be gradually Increased. Dr. Eliot added, until by the tenth year S47.800.OBO would he spent for maternity csre snd car of new-born Infants; 930.000.000 fcr medical rare of chldren and a&.OOO, 000 for aid to crippled children.

His experiences and observations in a Jungle teeming with wild animals, snakes, poisonous spldnrs, scorpions and centipedes, were most enter tainingly presented. "You can't walk through the Ma layan Jungles, you have to crawl." Captain Bush told the Rotartans in describing his exciting trip Into tin Interior where a rubber plantation was carved out of the wilderness. Hardships encountered In clearing in Jungles and planting were vividly told. The rubber trees are plantid In rows, 34 feet apart and In 40 acre blocks, Bush told his audience. He gave a verbal picture, of the color ful natives employer to patrol the seven-foot plantation fences and lap the trees for creamy rubber. Eleanor T.
