In all. the two surgeons have performed the operation 26 timei and with striking successes.' The woman had the longest [survival but one of the “living deqionstrai lion” patients had gained 70 pounds in the last three years. The operation constructs an upper esophagus to replace the one destroyed by ekneer and which had been surgically removed. The two surgeons also have taken tis-t sue from the chest and used it as

"Patients in this series demonstrate the fact that carcinoma of the cervical esophagus is curable by surgical means,” their paper said, "and that the swallowing function and normal life can be offered these [ people by a simple surgical reconstruction.” They acknowledged that a sim/ ilar operation had bqen performed as long ago as 188 U but “a low salvage rate and hlfth mortality rate prevented popular acceptance of this radical procedure for esophageal cancer. With the new and improved methods pf anesthesia and chemotherapy, we have been permitted to agdin apprbhch the problem of radical surgery of the* head and neck with inore [safety to the patient and greater Chance of complete eradication of the cancer." | Children born with a cleft palati? usually associated witli hare lip should undergo corrective surgery between the ages of 14 and 18 months-, eight scientists of the sit.

Road Problems Are Hot Issues In Nine States

h. M '■■■■’ i 0 : NEW YORK, UP —The controversial problem of financing adh-: quate highways will be woyeln,into[ the ballots of nine states in November qnd in 1 some places the issue overshadows Other politics. ■ All sides agree more money must cprqe from "somewhere. The in most of the states centers on who should pick up the MH. Voters in Oregon,! New Jersey, Illinois, Georgia, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Montana and ; Ohio will pash on rqafi problems. The oqtcomd in Oregon may have a tremendous effect on the future of highway-use taxation. Under fire is i the controversial weight - distance tax on heavy trucks which Oregon pioneered in 1947 and which was followed (in. T 951) by similar taxes in New York and Idaho. Thq tax is* defended by legislators, state highway officials, automotive groups such as the Oregon State Motor Association and one strong trucking group, the Associated Foresi Industries of Oregon. Fighting it are the long-haul truckers who claim the tax places them at a disadvantage in'competing with railroads. [ Briefly, the law divides heavy trucks into Weight categories and assigns a tax rate to each class. The tax is computed by multiplying the tax rate by the vehicle’s mileage within the state. After, four years’ experience wjth the tax, highway engineers the rates had beein set too low and the 1951 legislature raised

the ta?c rates to the recbmmejnded ! level. Opppnepts of the touched off one of the hottest campaigns in thp[ state’s history and obtained the v4teii signatures necessary to refer ithei weigh t-distanep reMision to a .Vote. They also initiated a! proposal to amend the state! constitutipn to prohibit the use df the weighf-distance’ tax, T tie vbters must decide both issues in Ndvem■iber. ; , Alabama, Arizona and Georgia will , vbte on constitutional amendments! which would outlaw the use of highway revenues ? [for bther than [highway purposes. Those pushing the vote against “diversion” [of highway funds, niainly motor! carrier interests, argue that the hation’s highway problem would: be much closer to solution if all the money collected [from highwjay-use taxes were used for highway work. [ Opponents [point out that more is spent on [highways each year: throughout the country thaii is collected [from highway-use and, therefore, diversion is 1 a false issue. one other states have passed' to make diversion of highway fun<ls unconstitutional.
