SP 2-9169 AMA President Says Vote Margin Denies Mandate Washington -fl'Pt- Dr. E. Vincent Askey. president of the American Medical Associ ation said today President elect Kennedy's "narrow" election victory denied him a mandate to make massive changes in medical care programs. Askey urged the nation's doctors to pitch in and back the recently approved federal- state program of .medical care to the aged, strongly support ed by the AMA. He said .this was the best strategy for combating an ex pected drive by the Kennedy administration to junk the present plan in favor of medi cal care for the elderly under the Social Security program. Askey made the remarks In a speech prepared for the sec ond session of the AMA's 14th clinical meeting, which open ed Sunday in a fighting mood. His speech sounded the same battle-cry as previous speakers - the AMA should not permit Kennedy's election to slow down its vigorous fight against the Social Se curity medical proposal. "While our profession clear ly may face a 'hard struggle in the 87th Congress on the issue of medical care for the aged under Social Security there is no ground for defeat ism," he said. "The President-elect's mar gin of victory is so narrow that it would be difficult for even the most zealous adher ent to consider this a mandate for a massive program of so cial change. ' About 10,000 persons, in cluding 4,500 physicians, were on hand for the five-day con ference on professional prob lems and new medical tech niques. Dr. Ernest B. Howard, AMA assistant executive vice presi dent, said Sunday that Ken nedy's election should not drive the association toward compromising its past opposi tion to the Social Security ap proach to medical care for the elderly. "The surest way to total de feat is to say, 'we are now going to sit across the ne gotiating table and see what you will give us , he said, "They are going to fight with everything and I tell you gentlemen, we have to fight witli every resource - right down the line. Howard spoke during seminar on implementing the federal-state program for pro. vidlng medical benefits to the elderly, approved at the pre election session of Congress. The AMA favors this pro gram, which was enacted after the Senate defeated Ken nedy's proposal to provide medical benefits for the aged through the Social Security program, financed by higher Social Security taxes. Kennedy criticized the federal-state program during the presidential campaign and aiv nounccd his intention to con tinue the fight for the Social Security approach. a.
