Health Council FoVors FIoUridofion of Water As UIfimoFe City Goal

Climaxing several discussions on research in flouridation of water supplies, the Matanuska Valley Health Council went on record as favoring such treatment of local water at the monthly meeting held last Thursday night.
 The Health Council views this recommendation as an ultimate goal in fostering a program that has been found to reduce the in cidence of dental decay, accord ing to longtime experience of several communities in the States. F1ouridation of the water supply would have little effect on the great majority of residents today. Dental hygienists point out that beneficial effects of flouridation are accumulated during the periods of tooth formation, usually dur ing the first eight years of a child's life.
 The Health Council also went on record as favoring the organi- zation of a Matanuska Valley Health District as authorized by Territorial law enacted in 1949. Creation of the first health dis trict under this law was recently completed in the Anchorage area.
 The Health Council will have no monthly meeting in August.
