The American Medical Association proposes an eight point plan addressing elderly care including rethinking roles for seniors, expanding medical assistance and tax support, extending health insurance, easing retirement, building more nursing homes, expanding community programs, and focusing on prevention and rehabilitation for mental health among the aged.

Railroad Reform and the National Transport Crisis

The piece argues the core railroad problem is twofold: outdated regulation favoring government over private enterprise and obsolete work rules.

Calorie Counting Guests Spoil Dinners Say Critics

Hollywood remembers Ruth Willett Neveper Belupree. A column argues Americans have become a nation of weight watchers and calorie counters who announce numbers at meals. Hostesses labor to please guests deserve praise, not public diet chiding. Diet talk is vanity and ruins appetite and hospitality.
