to find new methods of treat
-1 ment and, hopefully, to find
eventual preventive measures
and cures. There has been pro
gress and reason to expect more
, achievements from the battle
. being waged against these
dread diseases. What these de
velopments will be remains for
1 the future to disclose.
Advances in medical knowl
: edge are occurring so rapidly
i that a premium is placed on
effective and convenient trans
mission of information to the
medical practitioner who, in
the final analysis, must decide
what his patient needs and
how he is treated.
The momentum of the
present research offensive
causes a problem, which the
House of Representatives con
sidered last week. The debate
came after months of study
of the legislation by the Inter
state and Foreign Commerce
Committee of which 1 am a
member.
In the drafting of the origi
nal bill for legislation in this
field, it became clear that what
was being proposed was a pro
gram to inject the Federal
government into the medical
field on a huge scale. A bitter
argument ensued and it be
came clear that the massive
plans of this program were,
in fact, ill defined. The lan
guage would cast the Federal
government in a new unfami
liar role which promised little
in the way of positive results
although the program could
well upset the balance of medi
cal care in this country.
The American Medical As
sociation and other profession
al groups in the health carc
field provided valuable assist
ance as they offered informed
perspective in the formulation
of new legislation which our
Committee developed careful
ly. That legislation met object
ions which were raised and set
the wheels in motion for unan
imous agreement in the Com
mittee on a bill that had shown
every promise of being one of
the most controversial meas
ures of the year.
The ne)w program would
support cooperative arrange
ments along lines already suc
cessfully worked out in some
areas between medical schools
and their affiliated teaching
hospitals with research centers,
local hospitals and practicing
physicians under which pa
tients could be provided with
the latest advances in diagnosis
and treatment for heart
disease, cancer, and stroke. We
can hope that from this legis
lation will come valuable as
sistance in the future at the
bedr.ide of those stricken by
these diseases.
THE PORK BARRELL
In the public mind, authori
zation bills for rivers, harbors,
and flood control are the ori
ginal "pork barrell" bills. The
1965 bill was debated and pass
ed by the House last week.
Certainly, one of the oldest
and most solidly based Fed
eral responsibilities relates to
control of rivers, harbors, and
flood prevention. This work
is costly, but the failure to
carry out needed projects can
be far more expensive. Many
hundreds of past projects are
paying off in economic develp
ment, contributions to com
merce and soil conservation,
and the protection of lives and
billions of dollars worth of
property from the ravages of
tuinual floods. In this sense, th«.
rivers and harbors legislation
does not deserve to be paint
ed with such a broad brush of
public scorn as sometimes hap
pens. Nevertheless, the repu
tation of the legislation stems
from an over-anxious desire
to throw into bills of this kind
projects that have not been
given adequate study and
which threaten to be wasteful
white elephants. Unfortunate
ly, the bill last week had ele
ments of that kind in it.
One of these is a billion dol
lar project to develop the Trin
ity River in Texas by making
available for navigation a
twelve-foot canal, 150 feet
wide, running 300 to 40 miles
across Texas. This scheme
would turn the inland city of
Fort Worth into a seaport. All
of this is not just an exercise
in imagination. Its costs are
vast, indeed, and I do not be
lieve the Congress should give
its stamp of approval to the
very sketchy and incomplete
evidence that has been pre
sented so far.
Bills like this can do great
harm to the confidence and the
pocketbooks of the American
people if the Congress insists
upon sloughing over the very
serious questions that have
been raised about such projects
as that planned for the Trin
ity River. This only leads to
the further and justifiable
public charge that the Con
gress is participating again in
its favorite sport of fishing in
the "pork barrell".
