Its greatest success in improving the
health and efficiency of the Industrial
population.
Such a system. It is pointed out
the bulletin, would:
1. Provide cash benefits and med
cal service for all wage-earners
times of sickness at much less cost
than is now possible. Adequate medi
cale relief would thus be placed with
In the reach of even the lowest paid
workers who are most subject to
health.
2. Distribute the cost among era
ployers, employees, and the public as
the groups responsible for dlseas-
causing conditions and afford these
groups a definite financial incentive for
removing these conditions. This can
be done by means of weekly pav
Dients from t.he employees, supplemen
ed by proportionate contributions from
employers and government at a nro
reducible In proportion to the reduc
tion of sickness.
3. Become an effective health meaj
ure by linking the co-operative efforts
cf the three responsible groups with
ork of national, state and local
cealth agencies, and by utilizing these
gencies in the administration of thd
health insurance system.
Afford a better Lasis for the co-
o; eration of the medical profession
with public health agencies.
Eliminate the elements of pater
nalism and charity-giving by making
employeea and the public, as well as
employers, point agents In the con
trol of this fund.
*‘A governmental system of health in-

adapted to AnierlcM conditions, and
hen adapted will prove to be a health
easure of extraordinary value.”
