Dixon, Bessemer City Branch Manager Frances Herndon S 1 F F Honey Seism Rebecca Brown Health And Safety Tips Is fluoridation of public water supplies an effective method of reducing tooth decay? , Yes, says an official party statemeni of the American Med ical Association. Is introduction of fluorine in- I to public w'aler supplies safe? Again, the AMA says yes. i The position of the medical i organization with regard to fluoridation is set down in a nbw pamphlet published by the AMA. The association first endoi'sed tlie principle of fluoridation of I community water supplies in 1951, and further reaffirmed this position in 1957. The AMA’s Council on Foods and Nutrition and the Council on Drugs in a joint statement de- I dared: ‘'Fluoridation of public water supplies so as to provide the ap proximate equivalent of 1 part per million of luorine in drink ing water has bt^en established ’ as a method for reducing dental I caries in children up to 10 years j of age. In localities with warm climates, or where for other rea sons the ingestion of water or i other sourc-bs of considei able fluoride content is high, a lower \ concentration of luoride is ad visable. On the basis of available evidence, it appeal’s that this I mblhod decreases the incidence i of carles during childhood. Oth er evidence indicates as well a reduction in the mte of denial caries up to at least 4*1 ybars of age. ‘No evidence has been found to prove that continuous inges tion of water containin gthe equi valent of approximately 1 part per million of fluorine for long periods by large segments of the population is harmful to the general health. Mottling of the The Veterans Comer EDITOR’S NOTE: Below are j authoritative answers by the I Veterans Administration to some of the many cunent questions from former siervicemen and I their families. Further informa- I tion on veterans benefits may be ■ obtained at any VA office. Q—'I have received an ifisur- I anoe application and a pamphlet 1 from the VA, generally describ- Ijlng the provisions of the new insurance law. I already have I'$10,000 worth of government in- I surance. Am I eligible for more I insurance? A—No. VA sent applications j and general information to vet- j brans on the compensation rolls I ■ on the basis they are the group | , having the greatest potential ! eligibility. The mailing was oon- II ducted from records maintained liby our automatic data procbs.s- ■ ing office. These records do not I shoiw the insurance status of the 1 veteran. Q—I have government life ki- jpuranefe on^ the term plan. When Will I be told of my eligibility for the new modified life plan I which became available May 1? A—Genemlly, veterans with Itlerm insurance will be notified 6f the new modified life plan when their policy is scheduled for renewal on the term plan. Prior to expiration of the term contract, the veteran will be giv en complete information regal'd- I ing the new insurance. Q—My military service started I subsequent to January 1. 1957. Am I eligible for the insurance II have heard so much about? A—^No. The insurance you re- Ifer to Is availablb only to cer tain veterans having service be tween October 8, 1940, and Jan- I uary 1, 1957, and who meet oth er requirements established by the VA tooth enambl as.sociated with the level of fluoridation is minimal. The importance of this mottling is outweighed by the caries-in hibiting effect of the fluoride. j “Fluoridation of public water j supplies should be regarded as a prophylactic measure for reduc ing tooth decay at the en.-nmun- ‘ ity level and Is applicable where the water supply contains less than the equivalent of 1 part per million of fluorine." This statement was ac coled by the House of Delegates f the AMA as official policy the medical organization. ! Agriculiiijej In Action COSTS STIU. RISrNO ! Farm pioducti jn cost.s moved | up again and pushed to a new j rocoi’d high in May, according to \ the latest government leport j What’s more, there is nothing in j the picture that points to any re- | versal of the .steady upward ; climb which has |)<>rsisle<l for a i number of years. Prices paid by farmers for goods and services u.5efl in pro duction and in family living in creased onb percent i-n May to set a new rei’ord high of 323 imm- cent of the 1910-'14 average. Rising costs have been the ma jor factor in the income squeeze farmers have suffered since the end df World War II. From 1947 to 1964, gross farm income increased a little less than $S billion, but was accom panied by an increase of more than $12 billion in farm produc tion costs. Thus, costs went up $1.50 for each $1.00 in gross in come. Part of the postwar increase in farm costs is a result of the increased use of production aids, but priebs, wages and ta.xeshavo also increased. For example, taxes on farm real estate incroaserl 144.1 per cent from 1917 to 1963, as iho rbsult of higher wage; and pi icos and a growing demand for local government services such as schools. But the basic force behind the upward trend in our general piice lipvel is inflation. The pur chasing power of the dollar is somewhat loss than half what it was immediately prior to World War 11. Our inflation problem in turn is due largely to government spending that has put the budget in the red year after year. The current Administration has pro posed new welfare spending pro jects which promise to set ^^e^v records in national debt. Other factors contributing to higher labor costs include in creased minimum wage rates, in creased taxes for social security, etc. These costs are passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices, and the farmer is the largest per capita consumer of the products of industry. Gov ernment policies which have per mitted unions to exercise poiwers that are denied other groups under the antitrust laws also in crease wage costs. What can be done to stop con stantly rising farm costs? One thing that is needed is for the government to take effective steps to stabilize the value of the dollar through appropriate mon etary and 'fiscal policies. And more effective policies to en courage competition and prevent the exercise of monopoly power by any group would also be helpful. Most helpful of all. though, would be vocal taxpayiers who let it be known that they are tired of government’s astronom ical spending.
