Advertising and public relations have, indeed, much in!
common, although the Medical Association won't appreciate
the bracketing. Its members will assure you that medical advertising violates their code of ethics and is several cuts beneath professional dignity. : .
It will suit their hand better to consider their public relations expert as a counselor, a special pleader before the bar
of the public. There is nothing in the medical code against .
hiring lawyers. ,
So Whitaker and his staff will plead before the bar of the
public, which is to say they will conjure up interviews, statistics, organizational statements.and other material, all or most
of which -will have some “‘news value’, and which in due season will be presented to the public, largely in the columns of
the daily press. All of this may properly be dubbed ‘‘propoganda.”” The public dislikes propaganda but there. is no law
hired, non-professional agent—involve any loss of caste by
members of the California Medical Association.
A San Francisco news account of the Whitaker incident
contains this statement:
“It was known that ‘the association has taken the stand that
‘money is no object’ in defeating the proposed act.”
The California Medical Association has a legal right to
spend money to defeat the Warren program. It has likewise
had the right to finance, 10 or 5 or 2 years ago, research to
develop an adequate health insurance plan for the state. ‘It
might even have told experts assigned to such a_ task that
“money was no object.’’ But medical associations, is seems,
don't work that way.—Humbolt Times.
UP OR DOWN?
Some long gone physicist with a philosophical flare once
we know the observation has never been disproved.
The cost of living today is up, "way up, despite OPA's
priceholding efforts. But there is some disagreement as to
whether it will come down after the war — and if so, how
much, There is even dispute over whether living costs have
materially advanced since the figures on menus and price tags
appear only slightly higher than before the war.
In war time, howewver, regardless of what the buyer
pays, he usually gets second quality goods and fourth rate ser‘vice—-so prices are really stratospheric. Come peace, if prices
don’t descend, the quality of both goods and services will certainly have to climb to meet them. :
Those few commodities and fewer services which, under
all the pressures and difficulties of the times, have continued
in high caliber production and service without premium rates,
deserve special encomiums. Recently pointed out by an eminent engineer economist was California’sshighly favorable position as compared with the rest of the nation in the field of elecparison with areas where costs of developing power are ‘‘cheap
in this state’, rates here proved ‘‘generally materially lower’’
according to Roy A. Wehe of the California Railroad Commission.
But along with other costs, electrical rates, will come
down, he predicted, “regardless of what agency supplies the
service; and privately operated utilities under regulation: are
wholly capable of performing the task.” ©
Mr. Wehe’s findings may not be in exact accord with
those of the early phycisist, but they will please a lot of people who in these times rarely see an instance where a living
cost, in effect, “comes down’’—without ever having ‘“‘gone
up.’ —Contributed.
NAZI SELF-PITY :
It becomes clearer every day, as the end nears for Hitler’s boot-clicking followers, that Nazi Germany never had
seriously considered the age-old warning that he who lives by
the sword must expect to perish by the sword.
To the struttin gNazis it was unthinkable that the conqueror might one day become the conquered—and that Germany’s cities would suffer the fearful fate they had inflicted
Cried a Berlin radio commentator a few days ago:
“No people can take the measure of our suffering, our
heart-rending grief, our buried hopes.
_. “In the midst of a once clean and sheltered life, war has.
over taken us, with all its filth and misery.” .
But the world almost exhausted its pity, on Germany’s
own victims; it has. little left to expend on Germany. There
are few to she tears for the blood-thirsty who are now bloody
and beaten. There will be few murmurs at the funeral of Berlin.—Contrbiuted. :

seams as she makes ready for summer. It has ever been so
since the world began—an old phenomenon, always: beckoning us on with new hopes to blot out old fears.
And one day—not too far distant, we hope and pray—
our long, hard winter of war will pass away too. The awful
hurricane of death and destruction will end; there will be no
more nights of anguish, no more casualty lists to read in fear
and trembling. Peace will come to our land and our world one

day to look at a big piece of plate
glass: being installed in a storefront.
It was the lunch hour and the workmen were not busy. As they ate
they drank from bottles. When the
bottles wete’ empty, they broke
them. The incident gave me a distinct shock, and I never forgot it.
ack in Oklahoma, 60 miles from
a railroad where I had learned to
walk as well as to plow, every manufactured thing was deemed to have
value. My mother literally hoarded
bottles for many useful purposes. A
milk bottle would have been prized
in her collection. My curiosity won
a battle with bashfulness and I
asked the workmen why they broke
the bottles, and they told me.
Idea to Make Work.
“You see, buddy,’’ the foreman
explained, “‘we work in glass: So
do the: working men. who make the
bottles. The more bottles we break
the more work they will have.”’
Later I learned that this was a tradition of the industry, supposedly
based on fellowship and loyalty to
Labor. At first I was very much
confused—loyalty to Labor seemed
entirely right to me, destructiveness
entirely wrong.
Just recently, Edward T. Cheyfitz,
national chairman of an important
labor union, a member of the National Reconversion Committee of
the C.I.O., touched on the subject in
as clear and sound an economic
‘treatise as I ever, read. It appeared in the December issue of
Fortune, He called bottle breaking
a waste of labor and raw material,
typical of an old fashioned and
wrong attitude toward jobs and
wages.
For High Production.
This big labor leader said, ‘‘I know
of numerous cases in prewar days
where workers deliberately held
down production because they had
been made to feel that this was the
road to wage and employment security: We must educate union
membership,”’ he continued, ‘‘to. .
practice high productivity. Certainly labor can not increase its own
share of goods by producing less.”’
To sum up the whole article, Mr.
Cheyfitz contends that labor and
management must find a common
ground if our nation, as~now constituted, is to survive. He said the
surviyal of labor unions depends on
{the same thing. To find this common ground, the C.I.0. man suggests
that labor and management travel
the same road of maximum production. Let me add, he is right.
