COMMENT ON BRITISH HEALTH SCHEME
WELLINGTON, This Day (P.A.).— Everything considered the New Zealand social security scheme is better than the British health scheme in the opinion of Mr N. C.

Mr Speight said that no doctors in Britain were satisfied with the scheme there, although as far as the surgeons were concerned, one of the great causes of dissatisfaction was the grading system administered by the profession itself.
It was too early in the scheme’s operation to judge how it was regarded by the public, added Mr Speight.
