Oregon Doctor WiU Offer AMA New Proposal An Oregon physician, who has carried out extensive studies of health care econom ics, will bring a recommendation to the AMA when It meets next week, June 16-20, in San Francisco. Dr. Walter Noehren of Sandy will ask that the American Med ical Association label Its med - leal aid policy as a ’’Guaran teed Minimal Income for Health C are.” According to Dr. Noehren, the AMA’s policy for several years has been to recommend subsidies be extended to the poor for their own purchase of health care. He said a sp ec ial committee of the AMA Board of Trustees Is expected to re port at the meeting that the d irect subsidy technique of sup porting the poor Is the best from all points of view, will prove the most effective, the m ost econom ical, and the best from the point of view of patient satisfaction. Dr. Noehren, has re ceived many endorsements from other U.S, physicians on his past and present work on the problems of health care and financing tor the poor. He said he feels the phraseology of the label he suggests will best express die intent of the health care policy expected to be approved by delegates at the meeting. SANDY, OREGON, THURSDAY, JUNE 13, 1968 S in g lo r o p y Strawberry Crop Status Off-Again, On-Again The on-a gain, off-again Damping-off Is a fungus d isease strawberry crop is a tth lsw rlt- that attacks newly -germinated lng on-again.

Those by which crop estim ates are made has been indeed hazy this year. According to Parsons, trying to predict crop prospects or yields of fruits or vegetables Is very risky. He sa y s, this year’s strawberry crop is a prime example of the confusion Seventy-nine students were and differences in opinion that graduated Sunday from Mt.

The truth of the matter is that we are right now at the beginning of strawberryharvest and still Indoubt about the actual outcome of this year’s crop, Parons reports. It points up the futility of attempting to predict yields of fruit and veg etable crops. We just don’t know until the crop Is delivered to the processor or to the fresh market outlet what the prospects will be, he said. predicting crop yields have ob viously not learned this art and indeed probably never w ill. The agent pointed out that there are too many “ ifs” , too many unknowns, too many factors which cannot be controlled, for anyone to accurately predict yields at fruits or vegetables. MHC Students Earn Degrees Telford Wins Republican Nod At this time with strawberry harvest just beginning, the crop could only be predicted by saying that “ if” the weather is favorable during harvest period the yields could be good. This prediction inclines a big “ if” and It won’t be until next week that the true yields from straw berry fields will be known. Parsons gave another ex ample of how quickly situations can change Is this year’s pickl ing cucumber acreage. A short week ago, he said, growers were content with the stand of plants In their field». However, at this time most of the cucum ber fields are being replanted due to damage from slugs, flea b eetles, and damplng-off.
