Tests Establish
Flonride Value
A six-year experiment in the
East Texas city of Marshal! was
recently cited as proof that fluo
ride in drinking water can re
duce dental cavities considerably.
The test, which was hailed as
one of the most carefully conduct
ed in the country, was carried on
with the cooperation of the A
merican Medical Association and
the American Dental Association.
Dr Edward Taylor, chief of
the Texas Health • Vi- ijurtatent's
dental division, in announcing i*
suits of the test recer.th said
that Marshall children have had
57 percent fewer caivities than
those of the same age group in
another town, included in the
test, where fluoride was not pro
vided. In fact, the cavity rate
among Marshall ...children is re-,
ported vo be declining steadily
while cavities among children in
the other town, where fluoride
is not being used, are increasing.
Since fluoride was first an
nounced some years ago, "there
has been a continuous stream of
articles, some pro and some con,
some conservative, and some
claiming great achievements for
the chemical. As with any new
discovery, it has seemed that a
number of men in the dental
field have delighted jn rt<mx'tng
