With over 40 Federal agencies engaging in some form of medical service, at a total cost of two billion dollars this year, the need to eliminate overlapping and duplication of aotivities is obvious. The recommendations for bringing some order into this field of Federal service are amply justified. H As much cannot be said, however, for the recom- | mendation that the roof over medical activities be a | separate roof. The commission believes health to be so important and complex ‘a matter that it should not be placed in the same Cabinet department with 'social security and education. Accordingly it proposes a new “United Medical Administration” as an independent agency. The argument is a weak one and could be applied with equal force to the other two functions.
