Of Voluntary Medical Plan Outlined At Cooperative Conference In Provo Preventive Medicine May Be Best to Present Conditions Answer can families earning a total of $500 a year secure medical attention was the challenge sent out Saturadequate V. Watkins in addressing the Cooperative A. Judge day by conference for Utah county. Presenting figures obtained by a survey of 45 farm families in a typical community of this country, Mr. Watkins stated that the annual average income for all these families showed that common laborers in fcBjWtag 0( the new Common-tb- e asms community hud un in-- wuIth hoipltai hers many special' come of only 6600 u year, while lata in the varloua fields will clerki received an average of gather at the hospital as a center. 1881, and tho average for mePreventive medicine, under the chanics, trades, etc, was 61160 Insurance Idea, planning for periHow yearly. National Committee's Suggestion One answer to such a situation haa been suggested by the report of the National committee, of which Ray Lyman Wilbur waa chairman, and that answer is the formaUon of cooperative Insur- ance groups in which the emerg- ency need, might be spread over a large number of wage earners, declared Mr. Watkins. In other words," he added, "we must apply the same principles that are applied In all insurance mattera. Medical care is the sixth largest Industry in the United States, with an expenditure of more then 63,600,000,000 annually, out of which lose then three per cent Is spent for prevention of disease. Voluntary Health Associations Thinking people everywhere are looking for some better way to handle our health problems, he concluded, ns he outlined one method being found satisfactory by many communities, that of voluntary health associations", first started In Europe, and now gathering momentum in United States, although as yet only sporadic efforts are being made to organize such plans. Four principles guide the organization of these voluntary health associations: 1. Cooperative medical practice. Preventive medicine. Periodic payments In advance to provide funds for emerg8. 3. encies. 4. Control of the patients side of the matter by themselves Is cooperative groups. The situation in Utah eounty eems ripe for such a plan.

"It Is eomlng to be realized more and more that cooperative health Insurance la possibly the the beet method of bringing the doctors and the people together. Under such a plan the relationship of doctor to patient can be preserved, and yet the benefits from collective action can be obtained, conclnded the speaker. farewell testimonial was held for Elder Lynn Neleon who leevee In the near future for a Canadian mission wan held Sunday evening at the Second ward chapel.
