Bradford, printer of • competitive newspaper and postmaster of Philadelphia, would not allow Franklin's "Pennsylvania Gazette" to go through the mails. When Franklin succeeded Bradford sis postmaster, however, he did not seek revenge. He said, "I thought; so meanly of him for it, that, when I afterward came into his situation, I took care never to imitate it." o •' A - ^ COMPLETE TREE SERVICE TREE FEEDING ^ Trees SPRAYING * Weed Control v * Fly and Mosqnito ANDERSON TREE SERVICE 519 Waukegan Road McHenry 724 gical or Medical Care Plans. ..That is more than a third, of the entire population, budgeting Its... own health protection! Q: Are the Voluntary Plans giving satisfaction! A: The positive proof is in their steady rise in popularity. In the past two years, more than fifteen million additional people have been Insured. The growth of the Voluntary Plans has been one of the most rapid and spectacular economic developments in our time. Tan We Afford It! Q: Can the average worker af ford Voluntary Health Insurance! A: Yes. If a family can afford a daily pack of cigarettes or Saturday night movie, that family can afford to buy Voluntary Health Insurance. The monthly cost is about the same. If a family cannot afford tills protection It certainly canaot af' ford to have another tax -- at least tw!ce as high as a Volw tary Health Insurance premium -- deducted from Its Income. Q: What does Voluntary Health Insurance cost! A: An average, fully-approved plan, for full coverage--surgical medical and hospital protection charges $2.50 a month for an in dividual and $5.50 for a family, ir respective of size. Rates vary from state to state; this Is the national average. Q: May a person Improve his Toluntary Health Insurance cov erage by "shopping around"! A: Yes. He may "shop around" among types of service as freely as he shops for brands of food, or shoes, or make of car. Improvements in services and extension of benefits keep the Voluntary Plans In healthy competition, both from the standpoint of service render-? ed, and cost to the insured. Q: Are the doctors of America "lobbying" against Compulsory Health Insurance! A: The medical profession--together with hundreds of other professions and organizations which recognize in government-controlled medicine a step toward regimentation -- are presenting their case before the bar of public opinion in every community in the nation. One of our most sacred rights Ti the right of petition -- and this Case is being carried direct to the people. If that Is "lobbying" -- then the greatest "grass roots lobby" In history is fn progress today in America! It is "lobbying" in the finest American tradition! The Answer Q: What can the average citlsen do to help! . A: He should m^jke it his business as a responsible citizen to find out the facts. • Q: What then! A: He should discuss the matter with others in his community who have the public welfare at heart -- leaders in business, agriculture, clubs, veterans' organizations, church groups, clergymen, local editors and others. He should write to his congressman and senators in Washington, and his state legislators, telling them he wants no part of Compulsory Health Insurance in the United States.
