...biggest health boost of any group in the U.S. population has been enjoyed in recent years by Negroes-and it still leaves Negroes far worse off than whites. That was the conclusion which could be read between the lines of a report made last week by the Julius Rosenwald Fund, which in 15 years has spent $1,600,000 on Negro health...

...There are now no Negro hospitals in the U.S., 25 of them registered,* 13 approved for full intern training. Fifteen years ago there were almost none. But the Rosenwald Fund's report states there are still only 10,000 hospital beds for Negroes in the country (Negro pop. 13,000,000), and in some areas where the population is heavily Negro there are as few as 75 beds set aside for a million Negroes. This stands against the U.S. average of ten beds per 1,000 population. (In answer to an American Medical Association questionnaire...

These tough words came last week from WPB's Industrial Conservation chief, shy philanthropic Lessing Rosenwald, as he announced a new all-out drive for industry's "dormant scrap." Donald Nelson backed up his chief junkman in even tougher talk: "The one thing we must not do," he said, "is to pack machinery and equipment away permanently or in grease against the end of the war." Every existing piece of machinery must be used now for war production, for replacement parts for other machines, or for scrap...

...Nelson, Rosenwald & Co. meant their words literally, they were promoting a far more drastic operation upon industry than industry's captains had yet been warned to expect-however harassed they may think they have been heretofore. It would mean that nonwar manufacturers-even those who are limping along without using critical materials or machinery needed elsewhere in its present form-are about to see their means of production go to the junk pile. More important to the U.S. as a whole, it would mean that, when peace comes, there will be no machinery left that is designed to produce...

...things considered, it is a safe bet that what Nelson and Rosenwald were really planning to take-at least in the near future-was: 1) the machinery still being used for nonwar production (or for no production at all) that could and should be put to war production; 2) the vast, uncounted hoard of obsolescing and obsolete machinery that should have been written off and junked long ago. Taking the former would merely hasten the demise of a peace plant which is probably doomed for the duration by materials or labor shortages. (Such a plant would become a case...
