Eisenhower said bluntly, in his State of the Union message, he opposed socialized medi- cine, This is considered the politically expedient thing to say, and politicians find it profitable to follow the line. However, a short while after delivering that speech President Eisenhower sent to Congress a message on the nation’s health. As he had outlined in his State of the Union message, he proposes the Government should sup- port private health insurance programs and do other things to aid in the fight against disease. The President. comes as close as he can, without actually proposing Government health insurance, to bring the Govern- ment into the health field. The President’s message points up the growing im- portance of health in the Government’s political plan- ning. As does the creation of a Department of Health and Welfare, the latest moves show that the Federal Government is concerned with the inroads of disease, and the lack of medical attention some citizens suffer from. Nevertheless, the debate over how far the Govern- ment should go in guaranteeing, or aiding the average citizen in getting proper medical attention, will be a| long one. That the Federal Government is getting more concerned, and delving further and further into this field, is clearly obvious if one will review the record and analyze the trend of the last few years. This trend should prove the stimulus to private health organiza- tions and the medical profession, for action to prevent the eventual adoption of a compulsory Government- wanted to see.
