CORPORATION PSYCHOLOGY AIMED AT WRONG TARGET I LISTENED to a General Motors official present the facts regarding the CIO strike at his company'! plants. His audience was composed of a group of small business men and professional people. No one of them questioned the accuracy of the speaker's statements, but they were not greatly Impressed. Exactly the came facts presented from the standpoint of those who wished to buy a needed new car, rather than from the standpoint of those) producing the cars, would have accomplished the purpose the speaker wanted. It was not the fault of the speaker; It Is the fault of corporations, generally. They say: "The radical element in labor are attempting to force government to take over industry, to break free enterprise and . determine the number, the kind, and the priced cars the plants will be directed to build." A speaker, understanding public psychology would say: "The radical element in labor is attempting to tell you, who want new cars, when, and what kind of cars, and at what price you can buy, Instead of permitting you to make such decisions. Such a change would mark the end of free enterprise." Each of us is most interested In ourself. Knowing that, the student of psychology says, "you."

One cotfee maker, for instance, capable of brewing from one to eight cups, shuts off at 204 degrees, tests having shown that boiling brings out the bitter flavor in the beverage. With the coffee made, enough temperature is then maintained to keep the liquid warm.

Farmers, Mrs. Palmer said, have learned in the last few decades that early hospitalization means early recovery. "Through radio, the rural press and magazines they have come to realize that their fathers' habit of tolerating minor Illnesses until they reached the point where the condition was beyond to say the least. help, was foolish The care of our sons by army and navy hospitals has clearly demonstrated the value of scientific medicine, good nursing care, and prompt treatment. Today, farmers demand the same health advantages for their families as do the people who live in cities and large towns. The health of the farmer who produces the food for America's tables is fully as important as the health of the factory worker. "There is a great need for additional hospitals in rural areas, and farmers are actively supporting national and state legislation providing for a survey of health facilities which will lead to the construction of much needed hospitals." n ress, comes in three- - and aluminum sizes.

The scarcity of rural doctors is reflected by a survey showing that before the war, m the thousand most rural and isolated counties of the nation, there were so few medical men that each had to serve an average of 1,700 persons, while in the larger cities there was a doctor for each 650 persons. During the war, the rural average dropped as low as one doctor for 3,000 to 5,000 persons, because rural doctors almost everywhere exceeded their quotas in entering the armed forces. Doctors and dentists, the report says, tend to shun rural counties because they feel they can make a n1! better living In cities and have greater access to modern hospitals, techif nical equipment . and professional 3 contacts. The rural shortage also reflect! the department says, a failure of many states to provide educational opportunities for doctors.
