There is no doubt that the existing rates of sick- ness, of mental and physical disability ! and of premature death can be greatly | reduced if we apply to them more thor- || oughly the knowledge we already pos- || sess. “The committee has already adopted three principles worth thinking about. These are: 1. The personal relation between phz:m;n and patient must be preserved any effective system of medical service. 2. The concept of medical service of the community should include a systematic and in- tensive use of preventive measures in private practice and effective support of preventive measures in public health work. ‘The medical facilities of a community should. include the necessary facilities for adequate diagnosis and treatment.
