Us bcnifits are not restricted to ino.;e eligible for social security. And they are sensibly limited to those who need it the desperately poor as well as those who can take care of normal day-todliving expenses but not the cataclysmic kind of medical expense. Passage of the Kerr-Mil- ls Law last year, coupled with other programs, makes the proposal for social security medicine totally unnecessary next year or any other year. Let's examine this great unmet need for a moment. 'Does it really exist in tb2 dimensions we've been told or is it exaggerated? Many objective surveys of the needs of the elderly have been conducted by university research W, hosoitals, and other individuals and private and public organizations.

Here are two poems we ' would like to share: 4,One Morning Very Early" by Robert Martinez One morning very early the sun was shining brightly. I looked through the window; it was very bright. I got up from my bed. Then 'I went to the table. I always have to eat with my sister Mable. When 1 was through eating I went outside to play. It was very early for the starting of the day. I started to play cowboys; but I couldnt find my gun so I started to play something else. That was so much fun. "The Butterfly" by Allen Fossat I wish I were a butterfly then I could fly away.

More people over G3 are in debt and household for automobiles gocds than for medical services. A 'New York libor department survey turned up that: Th vast majority of our older citizens have resources to pay for all but the most extraordinary medical expenses, The elderly have fewer unpaid hospital ibill3 than the younger groups. They have a higher percentage of liquid assets and. are accumulating liquid assets faster than any other age group. More than 9 million, or 53 per cent of them anj protected by health insurance and the percentage is growing daily along with better coverage. Less than 10 years ago it was under 26 percent. Much has been said about the, high cost of medical care but too little has been said about its, worth. Sure it's high. We don't pretend that it isn't. But I'm con vinced it's not the crushing burden it's pictured to be. The American people spend only 6 cents out of each dollar for private medical care. They spend as much for recreation, twice as much for travel and onlv a wnni, loc. tnr liquor and tobacco. Over the 20 year period through 1969, the increase in the cost of medical care was slightly less than the increase for all commodities in the consumer price index.
