HEALTH HH INQUIRY If Mra, Franklin, Rooseveit were to step tomorrow ie the health department of any city hall or county court house jn the country, she probably would ask many of the Same leading questions’ that she did on such a trip in Washington, D. C. The tour was arranged by Mrs. Thomas F. McAllister, Director, and Mrs. May Thompson Evans, Assistant Director of the Women’s Division of the Democratic National Committee who drafted Mrs. RooSevelt for a series of demonstrations of how she finds out about the place where she lives, as part of the ‘“‘Know Your County” surveys suggested. by the Women’s Division to gather campaign ammunition for 1940. It is described by ‘Bess and Lucile Furman ‘in-an article in the February issue of The Democratic Digest, publication of the Women’s: Division. With Mrs. Roosevelt as she visited the Health Department. of the nation’s capital to investigate—the vital problem of the city’s health were a. group of congressmen’s wives from widely separated, parts of the country: Mrs. Jerry Voorhies of California, Mrs. John Murdock of Arizona, Mrs. Frank Hook of Michigan, Mrs. John Rankin of Mississippi and Mrs. Herman ene of ‘Pennsylvania. The First Lady touched on topics of national concern—the supply of public health nurses, the _ special needs of mothers of lower income brackets in childbirth, the need for hospital beds, and the campaign against syphilis, tuberculosis and pneumonia, Many of the questions she asked would be applicable to any town and could be asked by women in any part of the county. “Would you say that basically your health problem is economic, cente: ing in districts of poor housing, where there is overcrowding and the people haven’t the food to build up resistance,’’ she asked. “Have you enough public health nurses?’’ was another question. A third interrogation, ‘‘Is the real need more hospital beds or is it more public health nurses?”’ “T felt that I had acquired a great deal of knowledge on this first ty: Mrs. Roosevelt said. “It is planned to continue these trips, looking into a different phase of district government. It is hoped that this will be helpful to women>*in other cities or rural areas who wish to study their own problems.’’ Be Thankful for Your Competitors, Expert . On Business Asserts Your competitors may be irksome fellows who take your “‘sure’’ orders, but they are useful fellows, too, who give you. that much _ needed “kick in the pants’, make for more and better business, ders which ultimately fall into your lap. This is the business philosophy advanced by J. C. Aspley, authority on sales problems, in issue of the Rotarian magazine. “Indeed, competition is the very essence of the American system of private enterprise,’ Aspley asserts. “It is the glue that holds it together. It is what makes it work. Without competition business would quickly _degeuerate into a system. of guilds and monopolies. The level of prices would soon get out of line with national purchasing power, and the state would have to take business over to make it function effectively as a service to society. “While this competitive system of ours may not be perfect, it works,” he reasons. “‘It may pause to catch its breath once in a while, but it has given to the United States a standard of living enjoyed by few other countries. Do we want to keep it? Let’s stop trying to slap them down. Let’s stop hating them. Let’s recognize them for what they really are—a necessary part of our industrial and social system, and think more about working wity them rather than against them,” he declares. Banner Mt. Auxiliary Holds Enjoyable Session Banner Mt. V. F. W. Auxiliary held a well attended meeting Thursday evening in the veterans ‘hall, A social session was enjoyed after business was transacted.
