Cancer is one of the big killers in every age group . Pain and suffering without hope is a spectre that exists as long as we have not found the cause and cure. The Cancer Society is working night and day, through its supported laboratories, to find the cause and cure. Every possible means is carefully checked. The ease of young Rudy Mauller, whose leg was amputated Saturday because of bone cancer, sea good example. It is, of course, hoped that the operation removed all cancerous material. If it hasn’t, his life, and countless others, depend on find* the cause and cure. ■ . - —-— iri --- / ' '*~ -yV~* i; The Cancer Society helps patients, as well. But its real job is educating the public. Because some cancers can be stopped. Some can be removed, with nearly 100% cures, if caught in time. But you must understand the symptoms. You must know what is dangerous, and what is a false danger sign. To know these things, you must be informed through thousands of articles and advertisements and circulars. AU of this campaign costs money. But if lives can be saved and persons returned to useful, soul-satisfying jobs, then a great deal will have been accomplished. If Adams county does not meet its quota, however, we can not be a full-fledged part of the help for cancer patients, or future cancer patients. Have you done your part? If not, send your check immediately to Miss Joan Wemhoff, 621 N.. ,sth street, Decatur. The lives yon save may be those of your loved ones. Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

The exact nature of the problem was not disclosed, but it was learned Monday night that the trouble already has been corrected—in somewhat less time than anticipated. The kinks in the rocket were discovered when technicians made a cKfce study of a final practice mission run last Friday by the Navy leiutenant commander and ! the Project MercQry launch crew.

But engineers told NASA it might take anywhere from a few extra hours to two days to track down and fix the trouble, sources said. NASA then decided on a two-day slip in the schedule, delaying the shot to May 17 at the earliest and possibly to May 22‘, barring further complications, according to those close to the project. More checks were being made today on the Atlas 107 D and the bell-shaped Mercury capsule which Carpenter will ride into space on a flight much like that of Lt. Col.

WHY PRESIDENT KENNEDY'S HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN jl FOR THE AGED IS NOT SOCIALIZED MEDICINE by Dr. Benjamin Spock Pl'lfiMW tt CUU We»tem Re»«r»e t/mwraftf gehasl «f MedMM, Mrtkw of "Baby and Child Can."

I Recently, a group of physicians met with President Kennedy to express their support of his health insurance plan for the aged through Social Security. I was one of those phys!eians, and I have joined with the others io form the Physicians Committee for Health Caro for the Aged Through Social Security. I hope that this organisation will help to Inform you about the President’smeasure. While many doctors who know the facts about this plan’ favor it, many others oppose it. Why T I think that many of them are uninformed. They have not read the bill. They simply assume they would disapprove of it because it has been labeled •Socialized Medicine.”. Socialized medicine is a system under which the government pays for and manages all the health care for all the people, doctors’ salaries as well as hospital costs. The President’s program applies only to those who are 65 and over. It pays hospital and nursing home bills only. It does not pay the private doctor’s bill. It guarantees the right of the individual . to choose his own doctor and his own hospital. . The King-Anderson bill, which embodies the President’s health care program, clearly states that the health insurance plan will be carried out •without interfering in any way with the free choice of physicians or other personnel or facilities by the individual, without the exercise of any Federal supervision or control over the practice of medicine by any doctor or over the manner in which medical services are provided by any hospital.” Another argument is that the measure will “destroy the doctor-patient relationship.”

Henry Juttindonk, 80, East Mount Carmel, 81., was killed in the wreck on U.S. 41 abouj three miles north of Princeton. Four other persons were injured, the most serious the car’s driver, George Smith, Patoka. Two early • morning traffic deaths occurred in Hendricks and Henry Counties. State Police said a woman from California identified only as Inez White was killed when a car driven by her brother, Fred McFarland, 30, Lakeside, Calif.,, went out of control on U. S. 40 west of

On the contrary, I believe * will improve and strengthen it. Take the case of an aged person who no longer has to fear that he will become a hospital “charity” case. He will go to his doctor more readily at the first signs of illness. If his doctor recommends hospitalization, he will not be embarrassed because of the lack of money. And, if he goes to his own doctor’s hospital, he can feel confident that he will have the continuous supervision of his own physician, whose bills he will pay himself. This continuity and coordination of care fa not always available to an aged person unDoctors Meet-President der existing programs. Often, he winds up in the county hospital under the care of a doctor he has never met before. When you figure that nine out of 10 persons over 65 will need hospitalization, most of them more than once, you can well imagine what the total annual hospital bill for this country’s 17 million sged must 000 annually (including welfare programs). The annual hospital biU (including welfare programs) for the entire population is about $8 billion. Therefore, less than 10 percent

Belleville and crashed into a creek hank. ' McFarland was injured. The other accident happened near New Castle. Police said Harold Brooks, 30, Carlos, was kiUed outright in the crash on U. S. 35. Truck driver Ricbaid Day, 30, Cincinnati, told authorities his engine stalled and his semi-trailer was roiling to a stop when the accident occurred. ft you have something to sell or trade — use the Democrat Want feds'— they get BIG results.

OI our popumwu 20 percent of the nation's total to pay the hospital bill for the aged who can’t pay for it themselves fa not by creating a financial burden on the entire family, not through publie relief (which is costly and inadequate), but through the time-tested mechanism of Social Security. Americans adopted Social Seurity 27 years ago, amid the same cries of “socialism” w» bear today about the Pmb> den’s health plan. Take a look at the record. The tag of “socialism” also was given to.extension of Social Security benefits to permanently and totally disabled at age 50, to elimination of the means test in the erippled children’s program, to voluntary health insurance plans, and to Federal grants for maternal and child welfare programs. Some doctors even opposed the Bed Cross blood bank on tlto grounds that it would load to socialism! Social Security has worked out well over the years. A simple extension of this system to moot the pressing need for hospitalisation insurance for the aged should require no defense. In my opinion, it to a sound proposal, long overdue, based on the American tradition* that the individual maintains his independence by foresight and laying asidcu Your Congressman wants to know how you stand on the Kennedy Program for Health Insurance through Social Security.
