+ STATES’ HEALTH NEEDS GUARDED, PARRAN INSISTS

Wide Latitude Is Promised

By Surgeon General Under Wagner Act.

_ BUFFALO, N. Y., June 21 (U. P). —Dr. Thomas Parran, U. S. Surgeon | General, asserted last night that under the national health program proposed in the Wagner Health Act “the widest latitude would be left to the states in developing procedures and policies best adapted to their needs.” Dr. Parran denied the measure would “Federalize” the country’s health and medical services or result In a “national system of compulsory health insurance.”

The Surgeon General spoke at an assembly of the National Conference of Social Work, attended by 8000 social workers from throughout the country. He shared the platform with Miss Helen Hall, director of the Henry Street settlement, New York, who urged compulsory health insurance because “two-thirds of the lowincome families in American cities are without a family doctor and are worse off than families on relief.”

Five Objectives Listed

Dr. Parran listed five objectives of the national health program. They are, he said: “To reduce volume of sickness by making proven methods of prevention available to all areas needing service; provide aid for construction and maintenance of hospitals where needed: reduce disa- + bility by more prompt and adequate care of the sick: extend to the worker indirect health protection through temporary disability insurance, and research to learn how to prevent and cure diseases not now controllable.”

“Tt is not proposed,” Dr. Parran said, “that the health and medical services of the country be Federalized. Tt is proposed that the Federal Government give grants-in-aid for health and medical care, to vary with the needs.”

New York Method Criticized

In her plea for compulsory health insurance, Miss Hall branded New York City's method of handling emergency sick cases as ‘expensive’ and illogical, but more civilized than Chicago's.” New York, the settlement worker said, “sends an ambulance, a driver, a policeman and a doctor on each call, even though a patient is not ill enough to be admitted to a hospital Chicago sends a police patrol wagon and a policeman but no doctor.” Most in need of health insurance, Miss Hall said, are families with incomes of about $3000 a year.

TROLLEY OPERATOR IS ROBBED OF $28

An Indianapolis Railway trackfess trolley operator was held up and robbed of $18 and $10 worth of tokens early today near the barn at Highland Ave. and 10th St. Ravmond Eyre, 40, of 1318 S. Meridian St. the operator, told police that as he was turning into the barn he saw a man in back of the car an dthat the trolley came off the wire. He said that while replacing the trolley the bandit placed a gun against his back, robbed him and fled on foot. Meantime, three youths, two 18 and another 18, were held on petit larceny charges in connection with the theft of property from a parked Car. Fred Dawrence, 30, of 1026 Willow Drive, said a pair of trousers which the boys had in their possession was stolen from his car. John Stephanoff, 38, of 3014 W. 10th St. reported that $200 was stolen from his clothing while he was asleep.

SAFETY PLAY SERIES WILL BEGIN JUNE 28

SAN FRANCISCO, June 21 (U. P.) —Meet Sally Rand, the business executive, who spends her gays worrving about meeting the payroll and complying with social security laws and her nights figuring out ways of increasing her business. Occasionally Miss Rand takes a day Off to address a women's club or a businessmen's convention, and. of course, she still has to inject a personal touch into “Sally Rand's Nude Ranch” at the Golden Gate International Exposition. But, for the most part, Miss Rand works from 12 to 18 hours a day at being a business executive. She isn't the girl that Hickory, Mo, knew, nor the fan dancer that the Chicago Fair visitors went crazy about. She personally hires the 125 em-

club extravaganza that would do justice to a Billy Rose or Flo Ziegfeld. In 1932 Miss Rand was broke and slightly hungry. She got her a set of fans and the rest is history—that is, until her current role of discussing social and economic problems and of being one of the most im1 rtant persons connected with the San Francisco Exposition.

Perhaps the most important consideration now that Miss Rand has pecome a business executive is whether she makes money. “Yes,” she said, “plenty. I paid off my original investment within the first three weeks of the Fair. Since then, even with $3000 weekly overhead, there has been plenty of

profit.”
