This means that he suffers. his family suffers, and the commun- ity also suffers because he may ultimately become a charge on the community. It is therefore the humane, the sensible and the just thing to do in the best interests of all parties concerned to see to it that the means whereby that sick individual may regain his lost strength should not only be easily avalldble to him but also that those means should be within easy reach of the limits of his pocket. It is in the method of‘ attaining these desirable ends that many will disagree and even fight over. “Your nation-wide scheme for the treatment of the tuberculous is such a scheme, but it requires further assistance in the way of monetary and other encourage- ment. ' Great Social Experiment "We are witnessing in Great Britain the greatest social experi- ment of all time, and although as an individual. I am fundamentally opposed to the methods whereby the fltvolaliot Government of the U. K. are trying to achieve their aims, nevertheless in all fairness one must concede that the basic principles are of a noble order, Le. the setting into motion the wheels of a movement which given time will probably echo down through the ages. I have no douibt what- soever in my mind that in the end much of what is good in their programme will be retained by subsequent Governments. and in- deed will be furthered to the ut- termost with all the means which lie in their power. "it ls therefore not with the ‘broad humane ideas which form the background to the experiment that the Opposition disagree for they also would like to see grow up to full lnaturity a social order in which the individual may live the fullest possible life with the maximum degree of social secur- ity. It is with the means and only, with the means whereby and the undue haste with which the Socialist Government. are attempt- ing to carry out their plan that the others disagree. Indeed it must be remembered that it was the Opposition parties. the Con- servatives and the Liberals, who in their good time initiated, fost- ered and promoted many of the measures for which the Socialists are now taking "the credit. During t-he early days of the last. century the Earl of Shsftcsbury and other humanists worked hard for im- provement in working conditions, in health and sanitary services and other great measures. hose men were not political socialists bust just men who saw the rights and the wrongs of the situation, in other words they were social- ists in the purest sense of that term. We hr,'.'e in the British Conservative Party today the greatest socialist of them all and a man whom the world owes more than ever they can repay. none other than the incomparable Win- ston Gh-urchill. Was it not he who aided and abetted the great Lloyd George to set up and launch the National Health Insurance Act whereby for the first time the workers in industry could get a doctor and treatment besides mon- etary beneflts through a well thought out and organized contri- butory scheme’! _ “Indeed for that matter we may go much further back. for in the reiin of Richard Goeur de Lion. the Lion-hearted. the (Trusading Monarch of England an Act was passed to limit street nuisances and smells. “From than distant days it has been a Imriual Process towards betterment but with the daiwn of the new era opened up by the wonderful wow: of Pasteur and other greet men such as Koch, Lister and the Flemlnga of our day. we can rww indeed visualize a time when it will be possible for men to hive in a dilaeaaefreo hab- iitat enjoying to tho lull the healthy happy life. ‘Cause- of Muoh Controversy "Of mil the eriachnmta lllihlilh- ed on the public ‘by the ist Government. probably none as caused so much conttrove-rsy as the I-Iteia-lth Act. Incidentally all polit- ical parties and tlhe medical Dro- fession of Great Britain were in entire. absolute and practically unanimous agreement that a Health Service for the mitten was a prime and moat urgent neces- sit)‘. This is a most important noinl for it explains to you here t-hc snlzmn ill-ought that here as so often in the put that the lit- tls nld country from which lo monycf ywvweyviiroflsinsia onet- more pointing the way. "It is the means whetmby the socialist Govermnerit has .sought ‘in attain these ends with which the profession generally disagreed. As fl. member of tihait moot hon- orable profession it was on this noint that I tooik I'm’ stand and indeed it was for this reason I rlh here today. having ialecn tile serious enough economic plunge of coming as an immigrant to your great country, Cathode, a country which inmilly on the threshold of rm. further 1.‘. tness which lies ahead. and on this delightful ‘Is- land I hope lo make my new plying of the people with free glasses, dentures and wigs as the rwwupspers might imply. It does mean that on paper at least for ‘(the first time in British history that a full and comprehensive health service is available to all if they l0 care to take advantage of it. I11 other words, free full medical and surgical care with all that implies including hospit- alization is available to all. In ud- dlticn tfhere are other benefits such aa various monetary grants and so otn. The Service is not free, of course. It is paid for by a week- ly contributory scheme which la compulsory for all and is deduct- ed llico Income Tax from the wages (at source) of the virorkera. Employers have also to pay heav- iily through compulsory contribu- tions under penalty of default. Roughly for example, by means of a stamped card two dollars are paid weekly, nether more than half by the employer, tlhe balance by the worker. For this sum the work- er is not only entitled to all med- ical end surgical care but so also are his family and other depend- ents. In addition it pays for his full social security from tthe cradle to the grave, Le. old age pensions and so on. It even contemplated under the Act after u set number of contributions that the. sum of $80 will be paid towards fttrl-zral expenses. Th; service is as far- resnhdng as that. . Dearth of Doctors, Nurse: “Vi/‘here it fialls short of this paper ideal, is in the dearth of doctors and nurses, of clinics and hospital beds. Every hospital is filled to capacity and the uniting lists one crammed. Every doctor is s0 fully ctnoioyed that he can werccly cope with the increased work and many are breaking un- der the strain. In fact in very many instances the doctors work has nearly doubled and by virtue of the change in the method of payment for services ietndertd his income has gone down (although I believe this is to he cozrectcd in the near tuturc). The doctor is no longer his 0cm mos/lair answer- able only io 111s own conscience and to his patients. Ho is now re- sponsible to ttiiimilttes to wihcm he is amstveroble for the viay in which public money is being spent. Ho is complict-slv uindcc- their administrative control and indeed may shortly find himself under their complete professional OCliI- trol. Believe me, hem- lien the most serious danger of all, the clotnger that. the State donor may become a Slate RlliKfllilllFitl without soul. a mere kind of sorting-out clerk fo~ the specialist and the hospital. The patient will also suffer for erty of all. "Ihase committees which now control the doctor are in turn controlled through his personally appointed chairmen under the Minister of Health who ia the head of the service appointed by Par- ltanlent and answerable only to the House. I-Ie is advised by a Health Services Council and var- ious standing committeee. The ad- ministration of the hospital and specialist services are under the control of Regional Hospital Boards, Medical Education Com- mittees and Hospital Boards of Management. the mambers to which are appointed or elected by various interested bodies as for example the profession, the couri- tycoiuncilJlttepit-t acistaandso on. The Minister also is respon- aible for an ambul- ance, research and bacfalologitml services. and health centres. Each County must form a local Health Authority, who through m Exec- utive Comrrtitteg maintain and con-trot tihe general practitioner and other local health services. They appoint all practitioners and indeed practica may no longer under the Act be bought or sold. Dental, optimixnologioal and phar~ maceutlcai services are also maln- iaimed under local control. “All this has entailed the creat- ion of a huge and growing admin- istrative machine controlled by the Civil Service at an enormous cost and i.’ suppose inevitable under the circumstances in a scheme of such cfméionslons as visualised by this Ac . "In what then do we differ‘? l can only speak for myself as an indiv- idual and by pointing out my ob- jections, can only hope that over here in Canada a Health Service will be created which has all the good points of the British one and as few as possible of the objection- able fcatures. For there is in my mind absolutely no doubt that here in Canada as in the United States similar measures are just as imper- atlve and necessary as in Britain. I believe it will take only the passing of time to see here as in Britain a-n organized Health Service available to all. But I hope that the Pro- vincial and Federal Govemments will see to it. that the State will in-_ terlere as little as possible with (a) the all important doctor-patient re- lationship; (bi with the profession- nl freedom of the practitioner.

This was known as the Highlands and Islands otf Scotland Scheme and was initiated by the Dfitvar: Oomrnittce in lnverncss in the year I was loom. 1912. “Up to that year this part of Scotland sparsely populated by a poor peasantry was ill served by doctors and indeed had very few d.ue to the fact of dlstasicesntioverty and lack of people.

But this newly created‘ scheme altered all that. by the simple expedient 0t! s. Staite subsidy up to a. maximum of $2,500 a year. In many instances houses were also built and rented at low cost to the doctors. The doctor on his part had to ngrec to attend all low in- come pCc-ple for a fee of $1 for a call and 75c for each subsequent visit in only one illness. That is all except State-insured persons who of course got his attention by that scheme. "This scheme worked so well that shortly doctors were only too glad to settle in the economic security of a Highland practice and indeed each practice was snapped up as soon as it becztne vacant. Having personally worked for nearly ten years as a doctor in the Highlands and Islands under this scheme I cannot speak too ‘highly of these arrangements whereby both patients and doctor were made happy. “Many of us wished this scheme ltnd been extended to the whole of the British Isles but the Socialists cal dogma. prevailed over native catzinmess.
