DOCTOR SHOWS OPTIMISM OVER ECONOMY PLAN Physician Expects Contract Method Will Be in Operation April 1. Times Special ECONOMY, Ind., Jan. 17.—Dr. J. R. King, who i* 66 and has been a general practitioner in Indiana for the last 40 years, today said he is optimistic about the feasibility of the plan that he provide medical care for the people of Economy on a contract basis. The plan, for which contracts are being printed today and on which a campaign among laymen is to begin as soon as possible, provides that all persons t>no sign contracts are to receive all but extraordinary medical services at a total cost per family unit of sls a year. Although he doesn’t expect the campaign to have advanced far enough for 50 contracts to be signed and the plan put into operation until April 1, Dr. King today discussed with enthusiasm the probable benefits that will accrue to the community. It's the preventive medicine feature of the proposal that appeals most strongly to Dr. King, and about which he is most enthusiastic. He feels, he says, that the compulsory annual physical examination of all members of families holding contracts will be a great factor in controlling illness. Plan May Check Illness “We can find, I believe,” he said, “the beginnings of illnesses and check them before they have a c hance to seriously impair the health of the patients. “Then, too, I rather think the plan will be a definite check on incipient epidemics.'’ “Do you believe that the plan after a reasonable operating time, will have any definite beneficial effect on the health of the community as a whole?” he w.as asked. “I rather im%?ine it will.” he said. Dr. King said that the contract

These five members of the Senate Finance Committee were smiling affably when they heard Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr. testify as to the effects of the bonus bill which the committee has approved, but there may have been some trepidation behind those beaming expressions. For the Secretary’s testimony indicated that the bonus payment, work-relief, and other emergency expenditures might send the national debt to a record figure of more than 35 billions. Shown, left to right, seated, are Senators Bennett Clark (D., Mo.), Pat Harrison (D., Miss.), chairman; James Couzens (R., Mich.), Henry W, Keyes (R., N. H.), and Arthur Capper (R., Kan.;, with Morgenthau standing.

he will sign with the central committee of seven laymen will require him to supply medicine for the patients. He admitted there is no definite solution to the major surgery problem, but said that he hoped it could be worked out after the plan had been in operation for some length of time. He said he intends to have an office secretary who will keep a careful record of incoming calls and the time they are received, and that he will operate on a firstcall, first-served basis. If any dispute arise among the patients over who called first, the disputes will be settled by the committee of seven laymen. The committee also is to appoint a secretary-treasurer, and all finan-

cial details, such as collections and the enforcing of contracts in event, some subscriber refuses to make his quarterly payment, are to be handled by this appointee. The physician himself will handle none. If Dr. King should decide to take a vacation, it will be his financial responsibility to obtain a substitute for the duration of the vacation, he said. Dr. King said that the guiding light of the entire plan was Paul Turner of Economy, student of economics at De Pauw University.
