Divinest compensations come, Through thorns of judgment mercies bloom In' sweet relief. WHttier. Quick Action Vital The Heed Bill, which is now pending in Congress, is designed to the railroads from the antitrust laws to the extent that they may continue to make rates, in the long-established manner, with the approval of the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Reed BiU is thus practically the same as Bulwsnkle Bill, which was ed by the Senate Committee Interstate Commerce last session but died on the calendar. And its immediate enactment is urged shippers' groups, the ICC, fan ers and manufacturers' associa tions and others on the ground: that destruction of existing, high ly efficient rate-making principles would cause chaos in the industrial structure of the country.

As the Savannah Morning- News stated, "Opponents of the Reed and Bulwinkle proposals appear to be unable or unwilling to dis tinguish between the status of strictly private industry, which rightfully should fall within the scope of the anti-trust laws, and a public service utility such' common carrier, which, is so strictly regulated by the govern ment already that it can do almost nothing without governmental sanction." The New York Herald Tribune said: "The railroad rate structure, under ICC control, has over the years been carefullv terrelated, as perforce it must be if the railroads are to serve their respective communities and areas with fairness to all." Hundreds of other newspapers have made sim ilar comment There can be no such thing monopoly or unfair practices transportation so long as exerts the ruling-. power. Immed iate passage of the Reed Bill would be an essential service to. the country. Failure to pass it ccuia mean uifj destruction of i system of establishing rates, uh der government regulation, which no workable substitute" ex- Public Health There is confusion in many minds as to trie relationship of medical care to the public health and this confusion is undoubt edly responsible for considerable public support of incredibly costly government "health insurance" schemes which would force everyone to pay for it whether the service was desired or not' One authority described" that relationship in these words: "Medical care is only a part, and by no means the most important part of the prob lem of health.

Medical care is the care of the sick and injured. Health consists in not being sick or injured, and depends almost entirely upon sanitation, hygiene, safety factors, health education, good nutrition, good nousmg, adequate clothing sound working con ditions, and the control of patent medicines and the cults." So far as. medical care is con cerned, it is available to almost everyone. Voluntary repayment lans bring first class service, 'hich the patient may choose his own doctor, within the reach workers and families at a cost vhich is usually less than per month. There is undoubtedly relatively small group of pletely indigent people who not able to obtain sufficient but this deficiency may bf corrected through government aid without creating a gigantic bu reaucracy which would cost four to six billions a year, create medical monopoly, and place poll tical appointees in positions of eeping power over the practice of the healing arts.
