Medical
Is the proposal for medical care for the aged,
financed through Social Security, "socialized
medicine," as the American Medical Association
keeps trying to insist?
Not in the view of one of the nation's best
known doctors. He is Dr. Benjamin Spock, au
thor of "Baby and Child Care," which has assist
ed so many young mothers in the care of their
offspring.
Dr. Spock is a strong supporter of the King
Anderson bill, which would utilize the Social
Security system to provide some care for older
people.
A ND, in answering whether or not it is "social
ized medicine," Dr. Spock has this to say:
' Socialized medicine is a system under which the
government pays lor and manages ALL the health
care for ALL the people, doctors' salaries as well as
hospital costs. The President's program applies only
to those who are 65 and over. It pays hospital and
nursing home bills only. It does not pay the private
doctor's bill. It guarantees the right of the individual
' to choose his own doctor and his own hospital.
"The King-Anderson bill . . . clearly states that
the health insurance plan will be carried out 'with
out interfering in any way with the free choice of
physicians or other personnel or facilities by the in
dividual, without the exercise of any Federal super
vision or control over the practice of medicine by any
doctor, or even the manner in which medical services
are provided by any hospital'."
DKA-.
SPOCK also addresses himself to the
M. A. charge that the plan would "destroy
the doctor-patient relationship."
To the contrary, Dr. Spock says, it will im
prove and strengthen it. He said:
"Take the case of an aged person who no longer
has to fear that be will become a hospital 'charily'
case. He will go to his doctor more readily at the
first signs of illness. If his doctor recommends hos
pitalization, he will not be embarrassed because of the
lack of money. And, if he goes, to his own doctor's
hospital, he can feel confident that he will have the
continuous supervision of his own physician, whose
bills he will pay himself."
The principal question we have concernintr
the King-Anderson proposal is whether it goes
far enough. It does not cover everyone just
those eligible for social security benefits. And
it does not cover all costs.
HERE, briefly, is what
Hospitalization for
illness, with the patient
day for the first nine days.
Nursing home services up to 180 days after
transfer from a hospital.
Outpatient hospital
with the patient paying
diagnostic study.
Home health services up to 2-10 visits in
one year; includes intermittent nursing care and
therapy as ordered bv physician.
Drugs as needed
nursing home.
Doctors' bills ONLY
cialists in radiology, pathology, physical medi
cine and anesthesiology if they are part of the
hospital bill.
PJESP1TE its drawbacks and shortcomings, the
King-Anderson proposal, in combination
with the various existing welfare medical assist
ance programs, conies closer to a practical ap
proach to this problem
proposed.
There is also mounting evidence that a sub
stantial majority of Americans who have thought
about it have come to a similar conclusion. The
Gallup Poll indicates this. Congressmen's mail
also indicates a widespread and vigorous inter
est in the proposal.
Observers in Washington are of the opinion
that once the King-Anderson bill is allowed on
the floor of the House, it will pass. The problem
is in the ways and means committee which is
divided 10 to 10, with five "doubtful" members
holding the key to passage. Senate approval
is considered likelv.
TO US, the single most
1 of the King-Anderson proposal is that it
would be administered

same system which also was attacked as "so
cialism" when it was first adopted.
To older people some of them it would be

massive medical lulls. Lvenlually, as Social Se-
curitv is extended, it would cover an estimated

S)f
per cent ol the population aged ho or over.
To younger people, it would give similar as
surance about their old age, and also guard
against the threat of excessive medical pay
ments on behalf of parents or grandparents.
It would be paid for during an individual's
working life through his own eonfihutions
(about SI per month for an average worker) and
those of his employer.

Amorlca tht Fluoridated
To the Editor; Throughout
history man has been plagued
by revolutionary ideas and
changes. One of the recent
liberalisms to strike America
has been the proposition that
water should be fluoridated.
This problem is not only radi
cal; it is unreasonable.
A very real and relevant
peril which the term "fluo
ride" has become associated
with is rat poison. In the aver
age American city the water
department is run by a band
of culpable sadists who would
stop at nothing in an attempt
to poison the citizens for
whom they work. A chance
to administer improper pro
portions of fluoride into a
town's water systems would
only bring about the manifest
result - the murdering of the
people of the United States.
More conclusive proof of the
hazards of "water pollution"
(fluoridation) is the striking
number of deaths incurred by
malfunctioning f 1 u oridatlon
systems. Startling generaliza
tions have substantiated this
fact.
From already overworked
dentists one hears avid ap
proval of water fluoridation.
Since dentists approve fluori
dation, one might draw a con
clusion, that fluoride pro
motes dental business.
Areas in which pseudo-
enamel building materials
such as fluoride exist in the
soil have proven to be detri
mental to one's dental health.
People reared around Denver,
an area noted for mineral de
posits, are nationally known
to have the worst teeth in
America.
Anti-fluoridationisls rightly
fear the cost of a fluoridation
system. It is not difficult to
realize the great cost involved
in running such a system.
Chlorination systems, which
are similar to those used for
flouridation, have already fet
tered many family incomes to
the point of bankruptcy. The
few cents that a fluoridation
system would cost the individ
ual each year amounts to far
more than thj usual petty
dental bills.
(P.S.-Kor those with a lim
ited imagination, this is in
tended to be satirical.)

Medical care for the aged
through Social Security, in
which I engaged.
It seems thai interest in
this measure has not caught
on as it should among the
very ones it is designed to
help, and I cannot help but
feel it is because of lack of
knowledge In the merits of
this bill.
I am not writing this for
the sake of argument, but
rather to inform others of the
value of this legislation.
In a nation-wide survey by
the National Council of Sen
ior Citizens it is revealed that
very few of the 17 million
people over 65 years in our
country would be financially
able to stand the expense of
any considerable length of
hospitalization. This bill
would not pick up the full
tab of such an illness, but
would enable most people to
take care of the remainder
without financial ruin.
Ours is the only civilized
country in the world without
a government-backed health
plan and many have a broader
plan than is proposed in this
bill.
In view of the few facts set
forth herein and the increas
ing cost of medical care, I
strongly urge all interested
persons to write your Con
gressman asking his help in
getting this bill (H. R. 4222)
out of committee, also that he
use every effort to enable its
passage into law.
If, Mr. Editor, you see fit to
publish this and any individ
ual or group reading it wishes
more information, I will be
pleased to assist in any way
to the best of my ability.

To the Editor: Will vou

A hundred years ago we
fought a war about local con
trol of each state. The South
felt it had the right to secede
and the North objected. Free
ing the slaves was a war
measure although one of the
underlying causes of the war.
The South lost and because of
that and because of the
North's treatment of the de
feated states, the South turn
ed into the "Solid Democratic
; South."
It is one thing to have a
proper idea of how a govern-
mcnt should be run for the
I general good, or of having
j only the idea of staying in
power through spending
I every cent that can be ex-

that will follow. At present,

BERLIN: PERILS AND
PITFALLS
Washington - The U. S.
press has recently been filled
with "leaks" from Bonn about
American proposals to solve
the Berlin crisis.
Some of them are inaccur
ate. High officials here state
that we have never favored
and would not, at least at this
stage, accept any reduction in
U. S. forces defending West
Berlin.
Some of them are accurate.
We favor "technical commis
sions" - made up of West
Germans, and West Berliners
-to supervise the many and,
perhaps, expanding contacts
between the two parts of di
vided Germany. Until Ger
many is united we see no al
ternative to such arrange
ments. The surfacing of such de
tails, true and untrue, by
German sources dissatisfied
with either what we are pro
posing or what their own gov
ernment is doing, is undoubt
edly a diplomatic embarrass
ment and a handicap to nego
tiating with the Soviets who
use every difference among
the Allies lo demand more.
But I venture the view that
all of these leaks are not
harmful. They are alerting
American public opinion to
the danger of potentially im
prudent concessions to get an
accommodation over Berlin.
The end result, I think, will
show the Kennedy adminis
tration that the American
people would rather risk no
agreement than have a dubi
ous agreement.
...
I AM confident that neither
President Kennedy nor Sec
retary of State Rusk have any
intention of selling West Ber
lin for a paper pact. Their
firm determination is to de
fend Western rights in Berlin
and to maintain access to the
city by force if necessary.
But there are pressures
within the administration and
inside the Allied councils to
make concessions - sometimes
called "n o n - concessions" -which
could have the effect
of confirming Moscow's dom
ination of East Germany and
its seizure of East Berlin in
the name of a settlement.
It will be well to be on
guard against unintended
weakness. It will be well to
be on guard against a kind of
"settlement" which can be
called "strengthening our po
sition" but which could end
up weakening our position.
I am not arguing against
"technical commissions" man
ned by East and West Ger
mans to supervise the many
needed relationships between
divided Germany. 1 am not
arguing against an "interna
tional access authority" to as
sure the day-to-day observ
ance of transportation of peo
ple and goods to and from
West Berlin. These arrange
ments, if the Soviets really
want to take the crisis out of
Berlin, would not weaken
Western rights and might
strengthen them.
1UT let us

fered to the Soviets in the
1959 Geneva conference of
foreign ministers were then

year - such as the denial of
free transit between the two
Berlins, the erection of the
hideous "Berlin wall." t he

part, which were valid before
these illegal actions, cannot
be valid today. If we make
them, we would he simply

can continue to get what
they want by making trouble.
The concessions which we
must guard against and which
would, in my judgment, rep
resent capitulation, are these:
1 Any diplomatic, de jur1
recognition of the legality of
the Soviet puppet government
in East Germany
2 Any so-called non-aggression

saw countries and NATO
which would een appear to
deny self-determination of the
Soviet satellite peoples and
which would recognize the

Are you planning a trip-
either now or at some happy
later time-to see more of this
fascinating modern world we
live in? If so, are you plan
ning a cruise or a series of
short hops?
Both have their attractions.
On a cruise, you will have a
settled home. There will be
very little baggage wrangling.
You will see the world in a
series of relatively short
takes, while the ship is in
port, taking on or putting off
cargo-since most cruise ships
carry a certain amount of
cargo as well as passengers.
What you see ashore will
be limited by the length of
time your ship is in port. If
you are to be in port only a
day, your shore trips will be
short. You will take taxis or
hire a car and a driver. If
you are to remain longer, trips
will probably have been ar
ranged. They may last for
three or four days - all de
pending on the length of time
your ship will be in port.
But "your luggage problems
will be simple. You will need
only an over night bag. When
you get back to the ship, you
will be getting back home.
-TiHAT is the advantage of
the cruise ship. The ad
vantage of the plane is that
you will have more leeway.
You can stay longer at the
places that strike your fancy.
The planes are more numer
ous. When you get off one.
you will know that another
plane will be along in a short
time. And they are faster -MUCH
faster. By plane you
can see much more of the
world in a given length of
time.
But wherever you stop
there will he baggage to
wrangle.
A CRUISE ship is a com
munity. 11 is much like a
village, or a small suburb.
When you move in. you are
all strangers. But you make
friendships quickly. Some of
these friendships last for a
lifetime.
While you are at sea. life
on shipboard eocs on much
like life at a summer or win
ter resort. There are organ
ized activities, such as cos
tume parties, home talent par
ties, and so on. There are
deck sports, such as shuffle
board and deck tennis. There
are movies at night, including
travelogues of places the ship
will visit. There are swim
ming pools. There are reading
rooms. There are bars. And,
of course, there is deck walk
ing, including leaning over
the rail and watching the
sea.

The rest of his conversa
tion ranged over questions of
NATO, Berlin and the Alger
ian war.
The government still had
hoped, he said, that Algerian
peace would be restored by
the end of the year.
Early this month, after da
Gaulle's overwhelming vic
tory in the referendum ap
proving his Algerian policies,
it was reported that differ
ences arose between de Gaulle
and Debre over the latter's
belief that now was the time
for general elections to
strengthen still further de
Gaulle's hand. This, it was
said, led to Debre's resigna
tion. This corresnondent does not
believe it. There may have)
been differences. But not
enough to sway Debre's loy
alty. It simply was that Francs
was entering a new phase and
Debre was terribly tired.
Life on a cruise ship seldom
gets dull, even on a long
voyage.
" Your stay at any placa
along the route is limited by
your pre-arranged schedule,
including your hotel reserva
tions on shore. Tourist travel
is hitting the Pacific area in
a big way. In the late winter
ana early spring season,
which includes the best
weather in the area between
the 20th parallel north lati
tude and the 20th parallel
south latitude, the ships ara
crowded and on shore tha
hotels are crowded.
In the Pacifi, Hawaii, .la
pan, Hong Kong and Manila
are the standard stops of
cruises starting on the Pacific
Coast and returning to tha
Pacific Coast. These are also
the standard stops in the Pa
cific for a r o u n d-lhe-world
cruises.
For cruise ships of averaga
speeds of around 20 knots
(about 25 land miles) per
hour, these are about the
standard time intervals be
tween these most popular
ports: From the West Coast
to Hawaii, five days; from
Hawaii lo Yokohama or Kobe,
eight or nine days; from
Yokohama to Hong Kong,
four days; from Hong Kong
to Manila, two days.
VOU can of course break
your schedule by stopping
off at any of these places and
waiting for the next ship. But
in the present period of heavy
tourist travel it takes a lot
of arranging. It is highly
probable that the next ship
may not have any space left.
In that event, you are out.
It is also probable tnat your
hotel will have no room for
you when the next ship comes
in, as it will have made res
ervations for all of its space.
So you will have to be pretty
careful about stopping over
from one boat to the next.
In this matter of slop-overs
at places you may fall in lova
with, the planes are consid
erably more fluid than tha
ships, as they travel faster
and run oftener, but you still
have to be careful about your
hold accommodations, as tha
hotels at which you are apt
to want to stay are pretty
badly crowded. When your
reserved time is up, some
body else is pretty likely to
be waiting to step into your
rooms.
In these days, the world is
on the move and the Pacific!
area is rising rapidly as a
tourist area.
