WASHINGTON, D. CAS- a re-
suit of a Senate investigation of the
drug industry, consumers are aware
of several things they can do to stem
the rising cost of prescription medi-
cine.
You can ask your doctor to pre-
scribe drugs, rather than brands.
Then you can ask your pharama-
cist to fill that prescription with the
lowest-cost chemical that meets your
doctors prescription.
If you aren't in too much hurry,
you can shop around. Ask two or
three druggists what they'll charge
to fill your prescription (If your
doctor has prescribed by brand, you
won't have much luck, since most
druggists hold to manufacturers sug-
gested retail price,
Complain to your druggist if the
price seems high. His suppliers and
the drug makers are concerned with
their public relations.
Tell Food & Drug Administra-
tion about any painful or annoying
side effects that you attribute to a
drug.

Ask your doctor to think about

In some places pressures on water
supply may ultimately make it neces-
sary to place restrictions on land use
in an effort to control water de-
mands. the report said.
The report suggested that the fed
eral government, in advance of ac-
tual need, will have to help develop
basic sources of water supply through
construction of comprehensive, null
tiple-purpose water resource projects
on all streams where appropriate. 1t
recommended that "alert and inagi-
native experimentation be carried out
to provide more efficient techniques
for planning, building, operating and
administering such projects"
Basic water conservation systems
for full regulation of the nations
rivers are as important part of the
national productive plant as the ma
tional system of defense and inter-
state highways and federal water re-
source development programs should
be developed with this in mind, the
report said.

To determine the salary cost for

the Regents had to approve the stu
student-teacher ratios of IA to for

the Montana School of Mines in

colleges of education at Billings, Dill

With the fall enrolment expected

units the ratio calls for 80 per cent

professors, 80 per cent assistant pro-

"This represents two and one half

With the astounding growth of
metropolitan areas, as shown in the

communities that pollute
