ROCKING ME TAXPAYERS

According to newspaper stepies, IVA is
credited with estimating that purchasers of
its power. saved SIG, 900 during the 1866
fiscal year over what they would have paid
at prevailing electric rates throughout the
country. No mention was made Of the fact
that the taxpayers Of AZ other states are
assessed to subsidize IVA. Nothing was said
about the various government services which
IVA gets free, which all taxpayers are de-
MED. There was abysmal silence about the
fact that IVA does not pay dime of federal
income tax which other citizens must pay.
It would be interesting to know what
IVA customers would have to pay for cleo
tricity if IVA paid all its own way as a
private citizen, and if all the taxpayers of
the country were not required to ante into
the pot to reduce the rates for IVA cus-
toners. The rest Of the country is getting
pretty tired of putting up hundreds of mill
lions of dollars for tax-exempt federal power
projects which serve q privileged few.

Despite new times and customs,

the entire food industry should be
guided BY the thr,,e cardinal prin-
ciples Of better quality, better val-
ue and better service to the con-
sumer."
The Arp president also warned
against the general store" type Of
operation. where handling Of nom
food lines would distract the food
merchant from his primary re-
sponsibility. Efficient handling Of
food" said Mr.. Burger, 'is full
time job"
There is no question Of our
ability to improve the quality and
Of the nations food supply
and to find new methods Of MAX
ing shopping and cooking easier.
The pitfall Of this progress. how
ever, Is that in a period such as
this, unwise competitive devices
can easily Increase the cost 0f food

food industry, with its attendant
increases in the cost Of distrlDu-

Ray OF Hope
On November 8th it will be ex-
actIy so years since Wilhelm Con-
rad Roentgen, physics professor
at the University of Wurzburg, in
Bavaria, first produced the magic
rays that penetrated his hand to
snow the bones shadOWed on a
sheet of chemically-treate paper.
Because Roentgen's ''X"-ray, as
he called it, provided the means of
looking inside of people, medical
science moved forward at a tre-
mendousl- accelerated pace, and
with new assurance. And while
x-ray equipment has advanced from
Roentgen's experimental Crookes
tube with its relatively faint cleo
trical power to huge machines EN-
ploying as much as two million
volts, its usefulness still depends
upon understanding and interpre-
ting what it reveals. Whether in
its use for diagnosis, or in its more
recently developed therapeutic ap-
plication in many types of cancer,
skin diseases and acute infections,
the effectiveness of x-ray remains
in the hands Of the specialist who
must direct the examination, read
the films and prescribe and con-
duct treatment.
Thus the development of a new
branch of medical science, radi-
ology, has gone hand in hand with
the chronological progress of the
x-ray machine. Yet, in spite of his
| tremendous contributions to pubic
health and welfare, few of us are
aware of the radiologist. Perhaps
this is because he is a doctors
doctor whom you meet profession
ally only when referred to him by
your regular physician.
But more should be known about
the radiologist. since there are only
about 1000 of him in the u. S. and
more and more top-fiight medical
students should be encouraged to
enter this increasingly vital spe-
cialty. The way is long and hard.
It means four years of college,
four years of medical school, one
OF two years as an inferno and
three or more years as resident
in radiology at an approved medi-
cal school.
