MANAGER October 1, 1945 WASHINGTON, D.C., OFFICE 1127 MUNSEY BUILDING TELEPHONE: NATIONAL 3472 Dear Sir: We are sending you herewith reprint of an important article in the Weekly Magazine Section of the September 22, 1945 issue of The Christian Science Monitor, entitled "Mistaken Claims for H Socialized Medicine" by A. M. Simons. x Mr. Simons is well known as a writer and investigator and at one time was editor of the International Socialist Review. In his article he points out in clear, concise terms the falla- cies of certain claims that are made for sickness insurance. Since compulsory health insurance is a subject which is receiving wide attention, we thought you might be interested in reading what Mr. Simons has to present on the basis of actual experience under socialized medicine as compared with theories and promised benefits. S. TRUMAD Sincerely yours, RETIONAL JOHN N a SERVICE COVERNIMENT Arthur J. Todd, Manager, WASHINGTON, D.C., OFFICE Enclosure
