D., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1938 ; XVII Legislators Hear Municipal League s Proposed Program Because 70 per cent of Utahs population live in cities or towns the legislative program of the Municipal League becomes a matter of intense interest' to Utahs newly elected legislators, according to Mayor Mark Anderson in hia opening remarks at the banquet ten- dered to all Utah county legislators Tuesday at- the Hotel Roberts, in Provo. - Without asking for any pledges, but seeking merely to acquaint them with the program Gerald Irvine, chairman ot the Legislative Committee ot the Municipal League, presented the following eight points as a resume ot the program to be Introduced at the coming session ot Utahs legislature: 1. The need ot a uniform law for third class cities and towns In nominating officials for election, each such city or town now being forced to adopt its own ordinance. 2. Sale of fireworks to.be regulated for all political subdivisions, making the law uniform and thus preventing the infraction of city ordinances by sale outside city areas. 3. The price for the sale of water by municipalities being determined by the municipality, rather than by the Public Service commission, who de not have the viewpoint of the municipal officials In safeguarding the rights of the citizens. Surplus water owned by municipalities has often been sold altogether too cheaply, the League believes. 4. Jurors serving municipalities would bo frvU from challenge If the legislature would define the "debtor and creditor" relationship more specifically and thus Telteve a serious handicap often arising when cities are In the courts. 5. The Civil Service commission provisions should be broadened and enlarged for third class cities, Into putting the "merit system operation for many other employees not now Included. 6. Increased revenue is needed for cities in the enforcement of the Liquor Act in Utah, the Lea0 gue! asking for a split of all net profits from liquor sales to be made to the cities who now pay the cost of policing for this Act. Also instead of dividing the motor 0 basis license revenue on a as between cities and counties, 0 on p this should be divided population basis. 7. Amendments to the Granger Act are needed. It was held, to make its provision parmanent, and to provide a clear-cu- t definite policy ot financing municipal projects on a revenue producing basis. Mayor Anderson and Secretary Tom McCoy both elaborated on this point, and considerable discussion followed in which the concensus .of opinion seemed to indicate that Revenue Bonds were coming into favqr with the invest- Leaves for Mission r ALPINE SCHEDULE Conference Held; New Officers Named .

What advantages, are these sections of the country seeking! Health insurance .brings security in manyways. Medical care today is recognized as being equally , necessary with food;- clothing, and shelter, making four essentials for modern family life. Lack of medical care brings in its. train many illnesses which no amount of good food,' or proper 'clothing, or ' better housing can correct. medical care in this But surely people can get modern age with all our "doctors so ready and willing to help! Our answer is definitely, NO. Doctors are giving more freely tlian any other class in the community toward the relief of suffering' hut they must seek remuneration. The laborer is worthy of his hire. But people, many, many of them, cannot pay the price. Hundreds cannot buy sufficient food for a balanced diet for their family, and as for clothing and shelter, Provo is notoriously lacking in these things, if one may judge from evidence adduced at the Workers Education classes, and stories in the press from WPA workers. The fact is that hund-- ? reds of families simply do not call the doctor, not because there is no need, hut because they are too ; proud to seek help when they cannot pay for it. Is there any remedy? Yes, Carbon county and Grand county are finding the remedy Health Insurance, on a cooperative basis. Each family pays a stated sum, usually $25 per year in advance. This I payq fnr medical care for all members of the family, himm with uiowy.. regardless of size', so th;tt sum thus paid total is The not children penalized. by a hundred or more families provides the monthly salary for the doctor who accepts the contract to keep this group of families well. The doctor gets his pay each month, whether 'any sickness exists or not. It does not prevent his families. He is free to practice among serve other clients as before. He simply has made a contract with these families in the cooperative to provide each and every one of them with medical care in case of illness or injury. The doctor knows at the outset that the better he can serve his group, the healthier these people are and can become, the less work he will have to do for them. He can advise them, consult with them, direct their habits and their manner of life in such ways as to prevent many illnesses. Furthermore, the people know at the outset that no operation is going to be performed on one of them just for the fee. People rest easier in their minds, knowing doctor bills are all paid for the year, and they do not hesitate to call the doctor at any time sickness may threaten. A call in time often saves an operation, and Health Insurance is just that preventive medicine. We know this plan works. We know of one community where 600 or more families have been on such a contract, and where for a period of 16 months at one time not one single death occurred among people on the contract. When this Health Insurance plan was proposed, the doctors were opposed to it, and threatened a boycott of the promoters. But the cooperative group was organized, and the doctors, aceepting the contract finally, found financial relief for themselves as well as the people. They got the money every month, far in excess of previous charge accounts which had been piling up for years, and they were able to carry on a real practice with people, who paid in cash, right on the line, for if any person DID NOT joi.i the contract it was assumed immediately that he had the money to pay Tor his medical fee and was carrying his own insurance. The doctors Logan doing a cash business and everybody felt better. Can it woik in Provo! Anything can work if the people want it too. If you are tired paying $250 to $500 doctor bills, if you are tired worrying about medical care, if some member of your family should get sick, and x on fear to call the doctor because you cannot afford the big hill which follows, why not investigate v hat they are doing in Carbon and Grand counties, and find out for your.MM what it would take to operate a Health Insurance Cooperative in Provo? ; - .
