Charles - Edward A. Winslow

The habit of condemning any attempt at intelligent community action by labeling it as "socialistic" and "bureaucratic" is for example unworthy of serious- minded men. Some things are better done by the individual, some better by the state; and catchwords will not help us to determine to which class a given activity belong…..

….Whether we like it or not, however, the tendency of the times makes it clear that some form, or forms, of organized community medical service are coming, as surely as the sun will rise tomorrow. While we hesitate and consider, the thing is happening all around us. If we place our heads in the sand like the ostrich, or if we emulate King Canute and order back the tides the inevitable will still occur. C-EA Winslow. Public Health at the Crossroads.
