° The World's Most Expensive Citizens

Canada takes good care of
her 12,000 Eskimoes. To protect
their health the government
puts out more than $23 million
-a year. Iniemergencies such as
the one shown above, for in-
stance, flying an injured Eski-
mo from his" remote Village
to a modern hospital may cost
up to $4,000 All this makes the
Canadian Eskimoes the world's
most expensive citizens. -
No ong, complains of this ex-
pense, however For there. is a
very good reason for it Until
not too long ago Eskimoes
were dying out This came
about when to the Eskimo's
naturally--hard---lot ..ofhuige
cold, and accident, contact with
the White Man added tuber-
culosis, syphilis, polio and many
of the other ills of civilization.
The government ,realized that
.unless something were done to
help them, the Eskimoes might
well disappear from the Cana-
dian scene. oit•
Now„ -a regular network of'
he alt h stations protects the
well being of these indigenous
residents of Ca n a d a's Far
North. Costs are high because
the country is wild and rough
and distance great between the
widely scatter'ed Eskimo com-
munities.
The .atory. 04, how Cana,da,
has accomplished, this impres-
sive task is told in the •Septem-

zine of the World Health Or-

of World Health isodevoted
exclusively to health in the
