DIMOUT IN LONDON PROVES A FAILURE

London’s scheduled dimout, ending five years of blackouts, was marked down as a “flop” today because the Germans launched a flying bomb attack shortly after dark, the second wikis 24 hours following a 10-day lull The bombs presumably were released from German Heinkel planes which had flown them within range. Night fighters succeeded in knocking down most of the missiles.

already had passed when the alert

sounded. London's dimout “flop” was ascribed to four reasons: Lack of master switches made it impossible to control street lights enough to risk turning them on; many residents did not have the right kind of curtains for their windows to diffuse the light; the blackout still applied to skylights; habits of five years can not be thrown off in one night. :

The Nazis said the main allied concentrations had landed around Eindhoven, Tilburg and Nijmegen, the latter north of the Rhine and only five miles from the German frontier.

MEDICAL COST

Much Greater, Osteopaths’ Parley Told.

Political: and social myth today by Dr. Gail G. Jackson, Vincennes, president of the Indiana Association

of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons. He spoke before the organization’s meeting in the Antlers hotel.

Dr. Jackson said that public expenditure of $3,710,000,000 a year for medical care is $2,000,000,000 less than the consumer bill for amusement and personal adornment, including jewelry. a “The American people spend only half as much on their health as they do for alcoholic beverages and tobacco,” he said. ¥

plan of socialized medicine” proposed in the Wagner - MurrayDingell bill, saying ittwas fallacious to assume that the cost of medical care can or will be reduced under it. 4 “The plan is a worthy ideal,” he said, “but its success or failure will depend on its practical application. | “If congress does not establish a mandatory policy for the administration of the plan, the administrative agency will have the opportunity of blocking congressional intention and setting up dictatory rules and regulations that will interfere with freedom in doctorpatient relationships. This appears to be coming increasingly frequent in government plans to provide publice service.”
