(Received this day at 10.30. a.m.) LONDON. Nov. 20.
“Enel lit, then see a doctoi’,” is the recommendation of Aferedith Atkinson, outlining the latest plan of the New Health Society for a national campaign to prevent disease by a regular medical examination, which the New York Extension Life Institute successfully inaugurated and has aided insurance companies, one of which claims the scheme adopted in 1914, resulted in an 18 per cent, drop in the death-rate of policy-holders; another 23 per cent, drop. Three British companies are now including periodical examination as a policyholders’ privilege. The plan is sufficiently successful to warrant its continuance.
