make grants ‘to provinces for health insurance and other health meti- sures; n draft provincial bill, con- taining the machinery under which each province could set up health insurance, and a physical fitness bill, authorizing creation of a fed- eral fund from which grants would be made to provinces carrying on‘ approved programs.

The Minister said it would re- quire at least two years to get health lnsuraura organized but there was a special need for a fitness program now and this was embodied in a separate draft bill to pefrnlt of an earlier start.

Canada had six major social sec- urity measures already and three different types of legislative auth- oritv fnr them; Unemployment In- surance, Dominion; vocational Training, Old Age Pensions, and Pensions for the Blind. mnflnion- Provlnclal joint; Workmens oom- pensation and Mothers’ Allowances, Provincial.

The unification of these measures in one system and the filling in of gaps with health insurance, con- tributory old age pensions and other measures aiong the llnee sug- gested in the Bevcridge and Marsh reports required study of constitu- tiollnl problems and would take time. Mr. Mackenzie said it would be best, for the time being, to fill in some of the gaps and the big- gest gap was in the field of health.

Summarizing the proposals con- tained in the draft bill; Mr. Mac- kenzie said:

“The advisory committee recom- mends that the Dominion Govern- ment be empowered to assist (in- anclally any province which en- acts a health insurance measure along the lines of model provincial bill which has been drafted.

“It is provided that no aid shall be given unless the province also agrees to undertake a general pub- lic health program a roved by the Dominion. A grant n a of this program will also he gven."

Covers Entire Population

While the Provincial scheme coa- templated ls broad enough to cover the entire (population, em ioyed and unecnploye , master an servant, farmer and industrialist, tho work- ing adult, the aged, the indigent and children, the way is left open its the provinces to limit benefits

income. Complete coverage commended but not to be upon. The scheme ls cornpulso contributory. All adults hav n‘? in- comes deemed adequate wi be required to make contributions. They are divided into two classes, employees, and "assessed contribut- ors," persons in business on. their own or receiving incomes other than wages and salaries. Contributions from employees a to be obtained bv way of yro deductions. Assessed cont: butors will be required to pay once a

year.

The basis of payment is ‘worked out by dividing the estimated cost of sickness in Canada as fixed by a bureau of statistics study» in- 1035 at $240,500,000 and adjusted for 1908, by the number of persons more than 16 year; oi‘ age. That comes l0 $26.4! per cflplta and hence the figure of $26.

The bill provides, however. that no person will be required to pay more than three percent of hi; in- come on his own account and so cmvloyed racrsons receiving less than $606 per year will pay three For cent of their incomes while he remainder of the $26 will be coll- ectcd from their employers.

Depending again on income levels each adult contributor will be re- qui to make a 926 annual cqn- tribution for his or her adult de. pendants and. in the case of s man with dependents and a small income the contribution will not run high-er than 3.’! per cent of his income. No contributions are re- qulred for child liependents.

Contributions are expected to total $124,750,000 and the estimated cost of service; and administration is placed, leaving $131. plllbllc financing.

No a ocation of this amount as between Dominion and provinces is proposed but the com- mittee estimates that a health in_ aurance plan woud relieve the provinces of about 515,000,000 re- sently expended on grants to os-

ltals and treatment of indigents, caving $116,436,000 new expenditure to be financed.

Mr. Mackenzie said complete dental service could not be pro- vided at once because there are not enough dentists to go around. The dental profession, however, was prepared to undertake free treat- ment of all children up to g pra- scribed use, perhaps ld.

The plan provides for administ. ration in each province by a health insurance commission under a sal- aried chairman and comprising the Provincial Health Officer or De- Dllliy Minister, Representative of the Medical and Dental professions, Pharmacists, hospitals, nurses, in. cured persons. workers in industry. employers. funnel-a and other groups.

It l! also browsed that a "nat- ional council of health insurance" be created to advise the Minister and to consist of representatives of provinces and various professions and groups.
