Uncle Sam a Chinaman in Government Ventures
The Harding and Coolidge era slogan to shrink government is contradicted by new moves to expand government activity. The treasury runs a rentable office space in Kansas City beside a federal building, plans 33 postoffice sites with public dining, and pilots laundries and wholesale buying clubs for employees and the public. Congress faces reelection while economy talks clash with expanding federal operations.

Health costs and hospital care in America today
The piece argues that Americans face massive health costs with 200 million annual illness cages and 2 percent chronically laid up. It notes 250 million lost working days yearly, a 5 billion sick bill borne mainly by workers, and a mixed view of preventive care versus hospital funding. It cites 1.6 million health workers and 3.125 billion in hospital equipment, with doctors averaging about 6000 dollars net income and many private hospitals operating at a loss.
Modern health care costs limit access to medical progress
Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur argues that despite vast medical advances, many Americans cannot afford modern care while doctors and hospitals struggle financially. A five year study by the Committee on the Costs of Medical Care may propose socialized medicine, public physicians, or group insurance as solutions, aiming to raise buying power and add years to life.
