Truman criticizes AMA as socialism slur in health bill debate
President Truman blasted the American Medical Association during a speech at a Veterans Administration ceremony, accusing it of opposing the administration and likening its actions to socialistic methods. He said the AMA hates the administration more than the devil and asserted there was nothing in the Social Security bill that approached socialism. The plan would widen old age provisions, boost benefits by at least $5 to 4.5 million recipients, and grant permanent disability payments. The House approved the program 150 to 140, short of the two thirds required for passage under the then-current motion. He expressed hope the measure could pass later this year.

The remarks were made at a Monthly meeting of the Long Beach Independent Businessmen's Assn with 30 board members present.
