Aivares after the com ing of a hopelessly scattered cancer, I got a flood of lovely letters from people, every one agreeing with the view of the woman whose communica tion I had published. Many persons told -of dev astating experiences in which great efforts to lengthen the life of an aged relative (who begged to be allowed to die) absolutely ruined a daughter or son or niece, financially, emotionally and physically. Many old people told me that, with all their savings used up this way, they were now on relief. Many begged me to do all I canto change the old medical code so that old people, when they are dying and don't want to be fussed over, can be allowed to go in peace. To my great relief, no one misunderstood me and accus ed me of advocating the kill-ing-off of people. Several min isters wrote telling me of terrible experiences they had had with a dying loved one experiences that had convinc ed them that when an old person is ready to die and wants to go, we should "let him pass" as Shakespeare said of King Lear. The ministers thought that when is seemed to be God's will, the person should be allowed to go. Daughter Not Happy A woman now writes about her mother who recently had a stroke. The old lady went into a coma and lay with one side completely paralyzed. The daughter prayed that her mother would pass quickly; she didn't want her to suffer. But the old lady was sent to a hospital where every effort was made to keep her alive. Finally, when some cortisone seemed tq revive her a bit, the doctors and nurses were happy, but the daughter was not, because her mother still was blind and paralyzed, and apparently still conscious enough to suffer. Several trained nurses wrote me of their distress at having to struggle to keep people alive who wanted much to go. One -nurse said she felt so sorry for and un happy doctor who was dying with cancer.. When the tumor tissue blocked the arteries to his kidneys and he went into uremia, his doctor friends, at great expense to his little secretary-daughter, borrowed and artificial kidney from a distant university and connec ted him up to it so that he could live for a few more Clearing for Road Near Hiall Starts Clearing of a highway right of way in the Hiatt dam area has b.een started by the coun ty highway department, ac cording to Paul Rynning, the county engineer. He reported that a crew would continue working in the area, particu larly on stump removal, until snow makes work impossible. Rynning reported that bur eau of land management con tractors recently started burn ing brush in the area. This en abled the county crews to start work. The county engineer also reported that the rock crush er which has been operating in the Butte Falls area has been moved to Copper. Another project underway by the department is enlarg ing a drainage ditch between upper and lower Table Rock. Rynning reported that land owners in the area donated a 10-foot strip for the project. He reported that there had been some flooding on both the road and in the fields in the area. The Stewart ave. project is still under construction, he explained, with the last sec tion of concrete work to be completed within two weeks. How To Hold FALSE TEETH More Firmly in Place Do your false teeth annoy and em barrass by slipping, dropping or wob bling when you eat, laugh or talk? Just sprinkle a little FASTEETH on your plates. This alkaline (non-acid) powder holds false teeth more firmly and more comfortably. No gummy, gooey, pasty taste or feeling. Does not sour. Checks "plate odor" (denture breath).

All the time he kept begging to be left alone, to die in peace. Family Went Broko Other nurses wrote me of cases in which a woman dy ing of cancer or leukemia was transfused again and again, in order to keep her alive for a few weeks more. The only lasting result was that the family had to mort gage their home and go broke. A fine woman writes, "When my father at 82 was trying to die, the doctors' efforts to prolong his agony cost us 82,000, which came out of our scant life's savings. The doctors in the hospital kept alive for six weeks, but for what? Later, when my moth er, also around 80, wanted to die, she was kept alive for 13 months. This, again, cost us several thousand dollars. What good did it do? She cer tainly didn't want the extra suffering, and we did not want her to go through it." Another woman writes that when her old father was un conscious and almost dead with cancer all over his body, the doctors, with the help of many transfusions, cortisone and penicillin, kept him alive for weeks after his time seem ed to have come. The result was that his daughter and her husband, who had only a mod erate income, had had to pay out several thousand dollars, which represented all their savings. Other persons wrote to say they were unhappy and out raged because, when their aged father started to die with a cancer (or a stroke) the" doc tor insisted on taking him to a hospital where the family was deprived, of all control of the situation. They resent ed the fact that the doctor had ignored their wishes in the matter. I was happy that some persons wrote to say that they were very grate ful because, when their father had a big stroke and did not regain full consciousness, their doctor asked them if they wanted all sorts of stren uous treatments carried out, or if they would prefer just good nursing. Savings Used Up One correspondent told of her aunt of 82 who, after she became comatose, paralzed and diapered, was kept alive so long that the niece, a wom an of 55, used up all her sav ings, so carefully accumulated to care for her in her old age. Next, she cashed her life in surance, and next, she got what help her sisters could give. .Then, when everyone was cleaned out financially, the sick woman was sent home from the hospital.
