Secretary of Health, Education,

nounced.
The high cost of surgery in chil
dren suffering . from congenital
heart conditions and increasing
demands for such surgery have ex
hausted funds available to support
State programs for the current fis
cal year. The number of children
with congenital heart disease who
rcceive medical services under
State crippled cliildren’s programs
has. increased from 2,200 in 1950
to 10,000 in 1957,
Under the overall State-Federal
nedical care progranj for crippled
;hildren, States are retiulrecl to
provide 81 for each $2 provided
)y the Federal Ciovernment, If the
proposed appropriation is approv
’d, it would mepn that there would
)c an additional $2,250,000 for
treatment of heart defects in the
younj.
New surgiL-al techniques, partic
ularly ‘'open heart” surgery, are
>00 costly for most f.imilies to
handle unaided. The immediate
post of the average open heart op
eration is V about $2,500. This in
cludes all hospital and medical
care costs, diagnostic preparation,
and the use of a number of ex
pensive machines, f

IS DEPLORED
GREENSuORO — “The Creed of
the Easy” was the subject of Dr,
Gordon W, Lovejoy’s address at
‘.he first vesper service of the New
Year at Bennett College. Sunday
afternoon in Pfeiffer Chapel.
Dr, Lovejoy, who is professor of
sociology at Guilford College and
program consultant for the Na
tional Conference of‘Christians and
Jews, deplored the fact that so
many persons seek the “easy way"
of doing things,
“You can.escape from this,” he
said, “by letting the power of
God affect your lives and by lov
ing those who hate and revile you.
As a reward, you will find that you
will grow in insight, have freedom
frojn the won'ies and strain of
popularity and be better able to
withstand pressures.”
