What is more, they will not even trust us to decide whether we want it or not. Their purpose is so excellent a reduction in tooth decay that we shall seem most ungracious to object. But object we shall, because we want to retain some shreds sh-reds of decision in this increasingly paternalistic society. THE LEGISLATURE is mulling a bill to require the approval of the citizens by referendum before any city r town fluoridates its water supply. The good people who want us to take fluorides denounce this as a device to prevent it which no doubt, it is. Many voters could be easily panicked against fluoridation by exaggerated charges of its danger. The New York Times, which editorially opposed a referendum in New York City, explained that the lay public was not qualified to pass judgement on this, a medical question. We vigorously dissent and demand the right of the electorate to be wrong on occasion. In this campaign to force fluorides on every American Ameri-can willing or not, the organized medical and dental profession pro-fession have adopted a most unwanted and unscientific air of complete certitude about the safety and usefulness useful-ness of mass administration of this drug. Where else have these professional organizations shown such dogmatism? dog-matism? Not in the relationship between smoking and lung cancer, not on the role of fats in arteriosclerosis, not in the significance of other factors in tooth decay. Just in fluorides in water supplies they say this is it, and not doubt of it. WE DON'T BELIEVE they believe it's that certain. cer-tain. We charge they have failed to offer the people a fair statement of the medical pros and cons so the people peo-ple can decide for themselves. And if they doubt the American people will decide right, we would reply that that is the people's business. The issue we want to make very clear is that fluoridation fluori-dation is being passed along to us on a papa-knows-best basis. We think most people want to be able to have something to say about it themselves. Reprinted from the Salt Lake Tribune, other viewpoints as published from the Boston Herald.

Oddly enough, the Administration request for five cent postage (four cents locally) local-ly) which was passed by the Senate, was killed in conference by two of the three Senate conferees, con-ferees, Chairman Olin D. Johnston John-ston (S.C.) of the Senate Post Office committee and Senator Mike Monroney of Oklahoma. Subsequently, the Senate and House conferees agreed on pay rnises for 530,000 postal workers that will average about 9.5 percent per-cent which, is a considerable hike over the 6 percent suggested suggest-ed by the President. Thus, Administration supporters support-ers were quick to predict a veto, and Senator Frank Carlson, of Kansas, sponsor of the five-cent i. STYLING THAT WILL STAY IN STYLE 2. ALL-NEW V-8 ENGINE 3.

No Golden Eggs stamp and the third Senate member of the conference com mittee, is quoted as saying: "I don't see how President Eisenhower Eisen-hower could possibly sign this bill." And perhaps he shouldn't. It is not a good bill in any sense Ii. is, at best, a stop-gap measure meas-ure that will Increase revenues, raise pay and leave the post office of-fice in the same mess it Is in now. It is unrealistic in sidestepping side-stepping the establishment of a basic postal policy outlining post office services that should be supported by postal revenues, reve-nues, and the authorization and financing of a long-range full- scale moderization program, as urged by Senator Johnston. Beth of these, as the Senator has pointed out, are essential to the formulation of proper postage rates and pay scales. Perhaps a veto will clear the way to start oer on a really constructive, forward looking postal bill. But we still say you need not expect to pay more than four cents to mail a letter anywhere in the USA. 1 K Orem Students Win Awards In Commercial Contest Fifteen students from Orem won honors in the 33rd Annual Commercial Contest at Brigham Young University this week.

JJ "USS Ammonium Nitrate gave me the best corn yield I ever had a 10 to 12 ton increase over previous years." That's the experience of Mack Hansen, successful suc-cessful Elwood (Box Elder County), Utah farmer. Mr. Hansen applied 200 pounds of available N per acre to his silage corn. " I got between 25 and 30 tons of silage per acre. It was a profitable yield. I figure USS Nitrogen is a splendid investment," Mr. Hansen said. Mr. Hansen also used USS Nitrogen Fertilizers Fer-tilizers on his sugar beets, boosting yields four to five tons an acre with 120 pounds of available avail-able N per acre, plus phosphate fertilizer. On irrigated barley, Mr. Hansen applied 300 pounds of USS Ammonium Nitrate per acre and harvested from 100 to 110 bushels per acre. "That's a 30 increase," Mr. Hansen reported. re-ported. He harvested 85 to 95 bushels of irrigated irri-gated wheat per acre, using 300 pounds of USS Ammonium Nitrate per acre. "Nitrogen really pays off in added profits," Mr. Hansen said.
