Show ARE WE ENDANGERING OUR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN? family against radiation? First of all in or fluoroscopic treatment regard to don’t panic There is no need to panic if we take constructive steps now By constructive steps I suggest that we all begin a permanent radiation diary which describes the medical and dental radiation diagnostic tests and treatments which each member of your family undergoes It? should list dates of exposure as well as the estimated dosage when possible Be sure that each physician or dentist who proposes a radiation test or treatment is acquainted with the diary’s contents I also suggest that we support organizations and legislation attempting to set up public safeguards against the misuse and overuse of radiation Legislation' should be enacted providing that every baby in the US be provided with a medical record which would itemize and total his known exposures to doses of man-maradiation from birth Far more stringent controls should be exercised over radiation use State legislatures should set up more stringent codes and regulations for licensing and supervising doctors dentists and technicians operating X-requipment Medical and dental societies should exercise far more vigorous campaigns among doctors dentists and hospitals to reduce unnecessary exposure to radiation and these should be augmented by far more stringent controls at the state and Federal level over radiological machines and the people operating them I i PAZO 1 lets ycu hs active in contort X-r- ay (Continued) fission there are radioactive wastes Some of these wastes are being released into the atmosphere Some are being introduced into our rivers Some are being buried in the earth or dumped in the ocean In underground steel tanks enough radioactive waste is stored to pollute all the land and water of the US These tanks are expected to last from 10 to 15 years Then the material will have to be transferred or some new method found for disposal For several years uranium mills have radioactive wastes been pouring “low-leve- l” into rivers without Government regulation The sea also is being used as a disposal plant for radioactive wastes The waste is either sluiced into rivers that empty into the ocean or dumped overboard from barges in steel concrete containers mms&m XI w to IH to to XI x: to 3 (M3! 9 hzreoN rx Research finds new fast way to shrink hemorrhoids without surgery FLINTS ommnami X9 I Beet XI M 3 pi cmif tihtzA de day is close at hand when we can the oceans’ salt water into fresh water and thus transform desert regions into rich foodlands —but there is a risk that we may have polluted the oceans The with radioactive material before that day arrives Thus whole populations of the pres- ent and future stand to be exposed involuntarily and unwittingly to radioactive ' materials whose hazard to the human race can only be guessed The long-ter- m safe disposal of radioactive substances is an international public-heal- th problem which will be with us for centuries to come Until now the responsibility for deter-rfiiniwhat dangers radiation raises and how to control them has been dissipated among too many scientific committees supported by various Government departments A new administration in Washington and a new President are moving to grapple with the tremendous problems that face us at home and abroad President Kennedy has appointed John Jay McCloy as director of the US Disarmament Administration which will deal with the question of further nuclear testing However many scientists feel that the time is ripe for the 'establishel ment of a agency to deal solely with radiation and national health What seems to be urgently needed is a powerful new arm of the Government to protect bur people today and the children of tomorrow from indiscriminate and exces- radiation from any sive doses of man-masource It must be concerned not with the development of nuclear energy but with the need to Safeguard everybody’s health In the meantime what can you as an individual do to protect yourself and your Si r- 's ! ay ng ' de Add Pulvex Worm J Caps To Your Pet’s Food I Thanks to veterinary easily worm your dog or pup at home by just mix-- i n g new Grove Laboratories Incorporated DeWitt’s Pills relieve backache restlessness mild bladder irritations and muscular pains caused by sluggish kidneys Kidneys act as filters and DeWitt’s direct diuretic action helps them remove impurities A mild analgesic eases pains in back joints and muscles Pulvex I zi to Worm Caps with his regular food It’s odorless tasteless' I -completely safe and gentle 2 leaves no unpleasant after- effects Over 1500000 dogs MM to x: I -- I have been wormed with Pulvex Worm Caps All it takes is one I roundworms (ascarids) Sizes dogs pups cats kittens at drug pet and dept stores I I feeding to rid your pet of I for 1 1 FRltl Wril PULVEX Dog Ownori Cvidt Book with "10 Trick i To I9I5N hack Your Dog' Clifton Chicago 14 lilt AF!HaCTinCTF x: y relief DeWitt’s Cough Control Medicine soothes your Double-actio- n 3 throat and suppresses coughs at the control center contains tested the safe pure m Rock Slide or Slip?
